"U-Uh, um.....Inspired?"
"Yes, that's it.""He...inspires you?"
"Remember when I talked about his effort? How he never gives up? That, I really love that about his character, it's more than I can really say about myself. It's part of the reason why I've been pushing myself so hard behind his back, it's kind of a nostalgic re-visit back to my childhood...which wasn't really much to write home about, now that I think about it."

"You know, it's funny."
"Hm?"
