My wife does.

Yeah, that's how we fell in love...

mm, dancing.

I'm sure she misses you very much.

I hope so.

We, uh, didn't part on the best of terms.

But thanks to you, I have a chance to see her again.

Put things right.

[Brianna] But then the tunnel split in two directions.

[Jemmy] Which way did you go?

Well, luckily, I had studied the tunnel schematics,

so I knew where to go; I went right.

Magic.

And that's why you always do your homework, pal.

[Brianna] Exactly.

And then when I finally got out,

all of my coworkers applauded.

[applause]

You were really brave, Mama.

Oh.

Thanks, kiddo.

Mm?

Cheers to my brave wife on her first day.

Sláinte.
