Yeah. This Christmas thing. It's just fucking over the top, innit? You do know we're barely into December? You need to calm down, all of you.

[Alfie's tone is chiding, but in a light and teasing way that isn't really meant to be taken as a serious condemnation - he's actually been in an okay mood these past couple of weeks. This is just one more car on the culture shock train. The Christmas celebrations and decorations that he's is used to seeing at home are much more subdued, and definitely don't start this early in the season.]

Is this an American custom, or a twenty-first century custom? If I were to pay a visit across the ocean, would the Europeans be kicking up this much of a fuss? Fucking hell.

Nah. He's hip-deep in this world too, isn't he?

[sleight_of_hand]

More like drowning, but yeah.

[devoutish]

Drowning? Is that so?

[Audio]

[sleight_of_hand]

Yeah, he's annoying. I dunno what his deal is.

[Audio]

[devoutish]

You certainly sound like you know something.

[Audio]

[sleight_of_hand]

Eh?

I mean... he pays well when he needs help at least? But I don't really care outside of that.

[Audio]

[devoutish]

You say he's drowning, mate. That tells me there's a story.

[Audio]

[sleight_of_hand]

Hell, just look back on the network. The story speaks for itself.

[Audio]

[devoutish]

Mm. I just might.
