{Open to the two}

HENRY: So yeah, it was all kinds of weird.

QUINT: Mm.

{Pause}

NOXIGAR: What was all kinds of weird?

HENRY: Oh, nearly forgot, happy Harry Truman day!

QUINT: It's Harry Truman day? Wow. You know the thing about Harry Truman?

HENRY: What?

QUINT: He couldn't tell the time.

NOXIGAR: I really don't need to explain why Quint is wrong.

HENRY: Really?

QUINT: Yup.

NOXIGAR: Why would a pause need to last eight years?

QUINT: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

NOXIGAR: Why. Did you. Have. Lines of dialogue. Which stretch past the transcript border. You asshole?

{Camera zooms into his mouth. End}

NOXIGAR: I'm glad continuity seems to be a complete joke to Strong Intelligent, or I'd wonder why he'd make the characters waste eight years on a godawful punchline?
