//Silence//.

LANA: Geo, do you know anything about Einstein? Geo, what did you do? [Long pause] Geo, you’re right. I miss you. We should be best friends again. I would love to go with you to Canada, but unfortunately I can’t, until Einstein’s safe. If Einstein was safe, then I could take a little time off and go with you. So, Geo, if you know anything about Einstein, like where he is, then that would help. I just have to find him, you see, and then we could go to Canada. Geo, do you know where Einstein is?

GEO: I don’t know noting about dat stupid bird! [//Click// ]
