[ With a 'fair enough' shrug, Jesse is pursing a cigarette between his lips. He pushes the pack back into his pocket. ]
Yeah. I guess. [ Pausing to light his smoke. ] Kinda wonder 'bout these mantis dudes, though. For all we know, they're totally planning to, like, try and mate with us, then eat our heads, or some shit.
Yeah, [lúcio agrees with a snort.] and if they are they sure as Hell're going about it the right way to butter us up. I'd say enjoy it, though. They seem to have put a ton of effort into it. Wouldn't make sense to eat us after.
[ Jesse lights his cigarette and pushes the lighter back into his pocket. He takes a drag. Maybe the guy is right. But still. ]
I dunno, man. Kinda reminds me of, like... that episode of The Simpsons. Y'know, where Kang and Kodos, those alien dudes, keep feeding the Simpsons on their spaceship, telling 'em to just have a good time and whatever, 'til Lisa finds their recipe book. How To Cook Forty Humans.
[ Maybe it's the party's effect; Jesse gapes at Lùcio incredulously for another beat before he suddenly lets out a laugh. A mystified and enthralled laugh. ]
No way.

So, what's it like?! Is it like, like Back To The Future? Like, with flying cars and stuff?! [ Oh, right, yeah - Lùcio asked him what year he's from. ] I mean, it's 2009 for me back home. Just cars on roads and stuff.

wheeee
Oh, yeah. Why'd we get that, huh? Why give us warning?
[his shoulders slouch a little as he remembers all too clearly the feel of almost drowning and being unable to help anyone else.]
That'd be too easy. But we're all safe now, that's the main thing.
