"Don't cry over spilled milk. By this time tomorrow, it'll be free yogurt."


"Hey Nate."

"Hi Potter, you feeling better?"

"Nate, why would I feel better? It's been an hour since you called last and the virus started this morning."

"Jeez, I didn't know the flu made someone so sarcastic."

"That's my personality Nathan."

"Got it Potter."

"Bea."

"Sorry?"

"That's my name, Bea."

"Bea, that's cool."

"Both our names sound like bugs. Bea sounds like bee, Nate sounds like gnat."

"Yeah."

"And it fits us too. Bees are terrifying, seemingly, but you need them for survival, like me. Gnats are just annoying and have close to no purpose, like you."

"Wow Bee, really tugging at my heartstrings."

"That's my job."

"Hey, wait a sec. Don't you need a job? Since I'm guessing you haven't gotten a call back yet."

"Nope, they have me all set up here, they pay for everything."

"The movie people?"

"Yep."

"That sounds a little fishy Bea."

"Oh, well sorry I have a perfect little set up here."

"No Bee, I didn't mean it like that. But doesn't it all sound a little too perfect?"

"Well, no. It seems p-perfectly safe Gnat."

"You're questioning it, aren't you?"

"Little bit."

"My boss is about to kill me, gimme your number."

"Okay, okay cheesus."

"Cheesus? I mean, yes we do have multiple types of cheese in our cheesy Danish, yes."

"Boss watching?"

"Uh-huh."

"Okay number. ***-8910-1123."

"Okay got it, I'll call you later, okay?"

"Cool, bye Gnat."

"Bye Bee."
