Allie: I can't believe they cracked the Zodiac Killer's cypher after all this time! Do you know what this means?

Nawrocki: That the Zodiac Killer can't spell "paradise?"

Allie: It MEANS that all of my books about the Zodiac Killer are slightly out of date! I'll have to upgrade my library when this gets added to books!

Nawrocki: How many books about the Zodiac Killer do you even have?

Allie: ...You know, now that I think about it, I'm not really comfortable answering that question.

Nawrocki: Are you crying?

Allie: *sniff* Yeah

Nawrocki: ... why are you crying?

Allie: Because Jackie Paper grew up and stopped playing with Puff and left him all alone in his cave.

Nawrocki: Okay, so like this is just something I should let happen?

Allie: Yeah, you don't need to do anything.

Nawrocki: Okay, just so we're clear.

please do not do that

Allie: Hey, look, it's a crochet pattern for the Miser Brothers!

Nawrocki: Huh. Cute. You gonna buy it?

Allie: Yeah, I'll make myself a set.

Nawrocki: Cool.

Allie: Then I'm gonna make them kiss.

Nawrocki: ALLIE NO

Charlie: So, you and Allie are always on the same wavelength?

Nawrocki: Usually. I mean, we've known each other long enough that I can pick up on how she thinks. Like-- okay, watch this.

[Nawrocki writes something down on a piece of paper, seals it in an envelope, and hands it to Charlie.]

Nawrocki: Okay, hold this. Hey, Allie! C'mere a minute!

Allie: YOU c'mere a minute!

Nawrocki: Just get in here!

Allie: [enters] Yeah, what's up?

Nawrocki: What's the name of that song by that band who was in that movie from that country you like?

Allie: ... You're thinking of "I Want You to Want Me" by Cheap Trick.

Nawrocki: Open the envelope.

Charlie: [opens, reads] Well, I'll be damned.

[thegreatallie]

Nawrocki: Gah! What the hell is that?

Allie: Are you serious?

Nawrocki: Yes! What is it?!

Allie: You're kidding. That's a goat.

Nawrocki: A goat? That's a goat?

Allie: You're like nine hundred years old. How do you not know what a goat is?

Nawrocki: My understanding of the surrounding world is spotty at best. There are significant holes in my knowledge. You know this about me.
