Cut to Peter, sad and blue, standing on the rooftop as his emo bangs blow in the wind. He looks seriously pissed off. "So, that's the one you love, huh?" taunts Claude. "Off to dinner with the guy she left to be with you. Sort of fickle, don't ya think?" Peter's all, uh, why would you show me that? Claude's all, dude? I didn't show you; she did. And she leapfrogged rather quickly back to her ex, didn't she? Sorry about that. Peter's like, you are NOT sorry, you furry-faced miscreant. You enjoyed that. "You've got this rosy film over your eyes like a kid," says Claude. "It's no wonder you live like an adolescent. Posters on the wall, hair in your face." HEE! He goes on to say, "You've got to see the world as it is. That's the only way you'll learn how to save it."
Peter snarks that he's not really interested in becoming like Claude; a drifting hermit whose only friends are a bunch of fucking pigeons. Claude reiterates that Peter needs to get rid of his distractions. "The people I love are NOT distractions!" says Peter. "Then why can't you fly?" snaps Claude. "You've done it. Your body remembers how. The only thing standing in your way is you." Peter refuses to cut his loved ones out of his life. "How cold do you expect me to be?" Claude's like, uh, are we forgetting that we are a BOMB? "You've got to remember what this is about. Or do you have to ask for your brother's permission for that as well?" he snits in a bitchy voice. Heh. "Anything else that I have to do?" snaps Peter. "Wanna make a list?" Claude says that Peter's a sad cartoon of a broken heart, bleeding all over the place. "I'm just trying to get your mind straight." Peter's had enough of Claude's shit. "Look, I have followed you around and listened to your half-assed wisdom. You don't have any answers! Okay? You don't know anything! YOU are afraid of the WORLD." "You have to listen to me--" "And I am tired of you telling me what I have to do! I don't have to do anything!" "Except fly," says Claude.
