Shit -- sh -- hey -- Hermann? Hermann!

[ There's the sound of panic and stumbling as Newt nearly trips over a chair and runs into the desk, knocking over a -- what is that, a journal? ]

Wh--heh--hahahaha--

[ Excuse him while he just laughs semi-deliriously; the sudden change in scenery is so crazy that he's considering that maybe he's just gone crazy. The journal drops to the desk and Newt turns away. ]

Did--did -- oh, no, nonono -- Hermann! Hermann, I-I-I'm--I'm stuck in--in what I'm guessing must be your -- alarmingly swanky memory, what -- what do the Rangers do? [ That could be the sound of him smacking himself in the head. ] Focus!

[ That's... really unsettling. Super unsettling. ] Maybe that's part of it. Y'know? Like--like, take you away from home, set you up somewhere nice, everything you could want, don't have to worry about time moving while you're gone -- and boom, gradual complacency! That almost smells like--like venus fly trap to me, dude, I dunno about you.

[magnets]

Yeah, no kiddin'. Make you feel real comfortable and all that shit and then there's dudes rippin' out hearts and fuckin soul-suckin'. [ Wow, maybe elaborate on that more, Jesse. No? Okay. ] Long as people get free shit, I guess.

Wanna drink or somethin'? [ Because boy looks like he could use one. ]

[littlebityeah]

You -- wait. [ The hand says wait on that drink offer. ] You--you don't mean literally, do you?

[magnets]

Hell, I only been here a week. Got a lotta word'a mouth and ain't much else to go on. Wishes're cool though. Wanna see?

[littlebityeah]

Oh -- yeah, great, that's totally reassuring. [ THANKS JESSE. ] Wishes?

[magnets]

Hey, you're lookin' for hugs, go find somethin' with tits; I ain't no welcome wagon, I'm just tryin' to show you the ropes. All's I'm sayin'.

Look, just, like, anything you wanna have. Food or somethin'. Snacks, drinks. Ya just -- check it. [ And he wishes aloud for a bag of Cheetos, nonchalantly lets it plop out of the air and into his hands. See? ]
