Rydel: I guess he was pretty old but it's still such a shock when it happens I'm sorry I'm trying to be brave 

Jonne'a: You don't have to not at a time like this 

Rydel: All the great times the two of us had together I can't believe they're over poor Pluto he was such a good fish 

Vanni: How? Like he was just a fish 

Rydel: He was loyal he was honest 

Vanni: Did he do tricks?

Rydel: No of course not 

Vanni: Did he I don't know what do fish do?

Rydel: The same thing we do but in water

Vanni: Sorry just asking so what are we doing binning or flushing?

Rydel: Neither 

Jonne'a: You know how much time she puts into those fish she really loves them 

Vanni: Hello? Fish have no long-term memory they completely forget who she is every three seconds that is not a basis for a relationship

Jonne'a: If it's not about you you're not interested you can be really self-centered sometimes 

Vanni: That is so not true 

Jonne'a: Oh yeah?  What was the fish's name?

Vanni: Bubbles? I give up 

Jonne'a: Exactly 

Rydel: I'm sorry should we wait for Vanni?

Jonne'a: She might be a while 

Rydel: Well Pluto I guess this is it I just wanted to say thanks thanks for being a great companion a confidante I could tell you anything thanks for being a great fish and now return to the deep somehow I thought he'd sink all right if we have a minute silence?

Jonne'a: Course it is 

Vanni: Hi guys don't start without me 

Jonne'a: We've already finished 

Vanni: I got you something now I know it can't be easy losing your pet Pluto like that so I got you this now it's not an exact match but the guy at the pet store said he'd be just as much fun to talk to and I thought you could call him Pluto two in honor

Rydel: Right thanks 

Vanni: Now what?

Jonne'a: Rydel collects saltwater fish not freshwater 

Rydel: I know you miss him as much as I do don't you?  Who is it? 

Vanni: The idiot 

Rydel: Come in 

Vanni: Rydel look I'm sorry I didn't know about the saltwater thing I should have but I didn't what can I say?

Rydel: That's okay I know you're not good with the whole empathy thing 

Vanni: Yeah well that's you think?

Rydel: Oh yeah 

Vanni: You mean I'm self-centered?

Rydel: No it's just that other people's feelings aren't really on your rader but I'm not complaining sometimes I think I'm too worried about other people's feelings 

Vanni: Yeah maybe 

Rydel: But I know you mean well Vanni that's the main thing right guys? They think so too
