Good. I hope your stage didn't take too much damage. And yeah, we're fine. Missing a few sheep, but honestly I'll get over that. (We're still going to try and find them.)
She said I might be dealing with you more than her. But we're looking for a replacement pump. They're maybe toaster sized, with a place to hook up a hose.
Oh, there's definitely no electric involved with the pile of scrap wood we have in the parking lot. But your expertise would be appreciated for the auditorium Mara's building.
My thoughts exactly. Buying a pump costs an arm and a leg, but I could convince a clerk to rent one out. I'll add it to Lundegaard's tab. We can haggle later on how many hours rented equals how many hours you've been putting in to help Whitney.
That's what Carnelian kept trying to get me to join for. To do your lighting. So for him... gather up whatever lights you have lying around. I'll bring our scraps too.
You're shrewd. Maya was right to send me to you. We'd appreciate a rental, and we can discuss what fresh meat and bread you need as payment.
Although..... I know about your rat problem. And we have a solution to make sure that never happens again.
I don't remember what the actual plot of Blade Runner is anymore. I liked the new romance subplot though.
And yet she has none. And the rats will return. If Mara accepted a pair of seven month old cats (all yours permanently) into Whitney in exchange for us renting a pump for a week... that feels more than fair. We'd be giving more than taking.
Happy to die in service of robot love. Now imagine that play being performed in an Art Deco style theater, and not the stack of pallets we have now.
Unbelievably tempting to bring two adorable kittens into Whitney, but as a favor to a friend, I'm telling you that Mara Kaufman will not thank you for it.

You're really making the most out of the least. What's your next production?
But it will ensure she won't need to lose her mind over rodents again. We love them as pets, but they also keep rodents out of our stores. It's part of how we stayed isolated for so long. Maybe that'll warm Mara up.
We return to the Bard in between original work. Adapted. Whatever. Do you have a favorite Shakespeare?
You're welcome to make the logical argument to Mara. She doesn't like cats, and she won't be convinced by me. In the meantime, if you can get someone over here, the pump will be ready for you.

"Vaguely implied"? But certainly, I'd be happy to help. What are you looking for?

That's an in demand item right now. What do you need this for?

One of our homes got flooded. Even just borrowing it would do.

But.
Think about.
Kittens.

[...] I think if Mara wanted cats in the Depot, we would've gotten cats by now.

Thank you. Seriously. I'll talk to her about the cats, and send someone to pick up the pump. I owe you.
