Patrick, Cinnabar, Jimmy BonesI believe in you guys. You are the real shit. And you know it. Now I'm putting everything I got into this cuz I think we can make it happen, but you gotta put a little in too. Now all I"m asking is that everybody do their part. We'll move some shit in, and take shifts, or all crash together here --
Yeah, fine. But Mars Needs Women. If I gotta sleep in a spookhouse, surround me with chicks who are more scared than me. Speaking of which...
Forget it! No way they're in there. Trust me. I've been working down here twenty years. No one goes in there.
Oh, right. You can't. You're trapped there. Well ain't that too bad. Ain't that just too damn bad.
Was that really necessary? Can you wipe my fucking face? I can't see a goddamned thing.
Go on old pipes, groan all you like. Just please don't burst. That I can't afford.
Take my advice. Get the hell out of there. It's a bad place. Always has been.
Damn, that's the nastiest dog I ever seen. Nothin' but skin and bones.
