"well, the constitution was supposed to unite the united states right? so why would they all have individual tax if they're together?"

"okay. think about it this way: we're dating, right?" dan questions even though they already established their relationship.
phil hums to answer yes.
"before we were together--united--you were phil and i was dan. we established this relationship--the constitution--that united us fully. your problems, they're now my problems. because i'm here to help you with anything. united."
phil grins widely. "that makes a lot of sense."
