You can tell this is America. In a crisis they serve hot coffee and doughnuts. In thiz country it would be lukewarm weak tea and curled up butties.

The minute he realised he was holding an actual woman. Maybe the first time (he's a scientist after all). Might be different if he takes the glasses off.
