We’re together, right? Yeah. So that means we always tell each other the truth. Sarah, I am telling the truth. What, you think I’m… I’m lying? Is that what you think? No, I… No, no, it’s just… The story that you told us isn’t really adding up. You guys get the Twinkie and go off to Charleston without telling anyone, and I’m just trying to understand why. If there’s anything that you can’t tell the others, you can tell me. Mmm. Look, look at me. What happened? You’ve just been acting so off since your dad got back. What happened? Yes, John B. It’s me. I’m on your side.
