Seb

Oh no. He’s doing the “avoidance phase.”

Miles

What’s next, the over-explanation phase?

Hudson

I DON’T HAVE TO EXPLAIN MYSELF.

Jay

Ah, stage three: caps lock. He’s really spiraling.

Seb

Look, we’re not saying hooking up is bad, Huds. We’re just saying you realize your superpowers are gone now, right?

Hudson

I didn’t hook up!

Miles

Did you at least get her name?

Hudson

Yes.

Jay

Was it just her name? Or, you know,more than her name?

Hudson

Okay, fine! I hooked up. Happy? I’m not telling you details, though.

Seb

Because there’s nothing else to tell, or because you’re emotionally compromised?

Miles

He’s totally emotionally compromised.

Hudson

You guys are the worst.

Jay

Love you too, buddy.

Seb

Let us know when the wedding is.
