I thought you'd stolen my phone ― and my identity!
Is that right? But I’m not a thief.
I owe you an apology.
You bet you do!
I'm sorry.
For what? For being unacceptably rude?
I'm really sorry.
Well, I accept your apology.
And thanks for going out of your way to help me.
Well, it's all right.
Can I buy you a cup of coffee?
You don't need to.
That's the least I can do.
Can you get me a donut too?
Sure.
And listen to Radio Eiokaiwa with me?
You know, I was just going to say that.
Great! I like Katie Adler.
I like Jeff Manning.
I like Ken, really.

Who was that at the end?
I have no idea.

Of course.
