Ceth:
Yeah.
Tobias, the Mayor:
You sure?
Ceth:
Yeah.
Tobias, the Mayor:
Therefore, we're sane. Consequently, we're the target of the impermeable. And the insane. And of course, New York is where everyone comes to be forgiven. What've you done wrong? Tell me. How have you sinned? I'm sure it's nothing serious.
Ceth:

Tobias, the Mayor:

Everybody knew so little then. I know even less now. [Ceth kisses him]
