[Video clicks on: Cassel looks decidedly calm, leaned back against the white wall of his bedroom. Which he's not, but he's been thinking about this for a while - especially after fourth wall day - and he wants to pick people's brains.]

I never finished high school. This is not a political science lesson. Don't call me on my basic misunderstanding of the democratic process. I just have some questions.

Where I come from, people who can do [the briefest of pauses] magic are illegal. Or - performing it's illegal. And it has been for a hell of a long time. The problem is that you don't know if you can do it or not until it manifests, all by itself. You don't know if you can do it until you've already done it, by which time you're already a criminal. Surprise!

I don't know the order of history where you people are from. But for us, these laws have been in place for, like, a hundred years. Which is when things started getting bad. Some big-deal government asshole in a suit and tie tells you you're a criminal for doing something you can't help doing, I guess you just think: sure. Why not. I'll be a criminal.

Explain the point of this to me, somebody. Do people really not think this shit through? Maybe people just really want to have a bad guy. I'm okay with that answer. [He kind of believes it himself.] I'd just really like to take a survey, since nobody's asked a moral question for 0.5 seconds and I haven't had the pleasure.

[He goes to switch off the feed, and then remembers something.]

Oh, and if anybody else has similar crap to share, yadda yadda. We're building an environment of mutual un-der-stan-ding on this cruise. [Eyeroll, and feed cut.]

I'd like to get started on this memory thing. Whenever you both have time. Kon said it was cool but he wants to sit in.

You know that feeling like you're about to do something incredibly stupid? I have that. [He's so pissed B(]

Do you forgive me for keeping my wizardly secret from you?

Only if you promise never to prance around in robes. I can't take you seriously if you do that.

Capes are better. Fuck, why did no one in Harry Potter have a cape?

I legitimately don't understand the difference. Isn't a robe just a cape? Explain this to me. You know these things.

A cape's a cape. A robe is just a backwards Snuggie.

So robes are about the shittiest garment of all time.

Preeeetty much. Say no to robes.

Mothers Against Robe Wearers?

MARW is a shitty acronym that doesn't spell anything.

I'd like to see you do better.

Robes Instantly Make Jackasses of Bros.

Wow.

That's beautiful. That's like art. Damn. I am so proud of you right now.

Thanks, man. I'm proud of me too.

So I see you're totally ripping off my idea to get a high school diploma. Why the fuck are you not going to trade school instead? I hear you're pretty good with your

hands.

Okay I swear I'll stop now. That was bad.

Oh my god.

[He can't even with you sometimes, Chris.]

I'm amazing with my hands. Thanks for noticing. Where did I say I was going to finish? I just said I hadn't yet.

Oh.

Well, shit. Do you want to have group study sessions or not?

I mean. No big deal if you want to go through life letting people think you're a retard or something. Hell, maybe that's the way the con is played.

Of course I do. I'm just screwing with you.

I'd never really thought about it until you started talking about it, honestly. But it's probably a good idea.

Not that I think it's going to be helpful when you're applying to other mafias or whatever.

Don't know if I'm gonna be doing that.

Yeah? What'll you do instead?

I have absolutely no idea. But I have to be good for something, right?

You're good for lots of things, moron. What do you want to do?

I don't know. I never thought there'd be anything else. I literally never thought about it until right now.

I'm going to start writing out your application to McDonald's University, okay?

You need to start a business. "Chris D'Amico: Cement shoes, excessive profanity, motivational speeches provided at a convenient low price."

I would make so much fucking money you have no idea.

Well I've solved your existential crisis. You're so welcome.
