THOMAS:

I’ll tell Clara you don’t love her anymore.

PATRICK:

You wouldn’t dare.

Do either of you even care about me? Why do I have to beg for your love?

THOMAS:

PATRICK:

Get Clara a cell phone so I can text her instead of you two. At least she’d be happy for me.

THOMAS:

She’s never getting a phone. Or social media. Ever. And we’re happy for you. I really do hope it’s with Bella since you still haven’t told us shit.

PATRICK:

Waiting …

It’s with Bells. I’m taking her to the resort for dinner.

PATRICK:

Oh shit. This is serious. Should we come too?

THOMAS:

I definitely think we should show up.

Please don’t.

PATRICK:

You might need our help.

THOMAS:

I’m a great wingman.

I don’t think you’ve ever been a wingman in your entire life.

THOMAS:

How would you know?

PATRICK:

What time’s the reservation?

We don’t want to miss it.
