he doesn't even know if that's how it really works, but he believes it, and that's good enough.]

Man, that's gay as fuck. Love that for you. [he finally disarms himself from Pratt and makes moves to climb to his feet.] Alright, man. Let's get you to bed. You wanna crash in my room? Joan, uhhh, hasn't been around lately. Pretty sure she's not gonna mind.

[he's not SAYING she disappeared, but he's like 99% sure she did.]
