Nancy: *in fond amusement* You're an idiot, Steve Harrington.
Steve: *in fond sincerity and amazement* You're beautiful, Nancy Wheeler.

He thought for a moment, counting back through the months. "Three."

"It's all perfectly simple. That's how long it's been since my last fatal accident. That's when this body was born."
"No no no, I mean how old are you really? All your lives together." Good grief, she thought irritatedly, it sounds like you're interviewing Shirley MacLaine.

He started frantically counting on his fingers. "Um, about..."
"Come on, it can't take that long to –"

Neil considered that, then said, "Good thing you're not there anymore."
"Jean still is," Kevin answered.
