Acknowledgement Looking at the mirror isn't easy after so many years. Still, it's a good way to realize our bodies were not made in Hollywood and many scripts are pre-written - there'zzzzz no need ta fear. Dah heroes in our tiny dramas were decided long before dah cast and will be around after all characters pass. Real heroes are undying - whad appearz on stage is jes popular entertainment - tah keep the masses dazed.

Lex: God help those who take their fictions seriously.

Ron: People who are too rigid to acknowledge their own fictions are breathing mannequins.

Lily: We are at our best when we admit our own foolishness.
