Same reason I got married, started an AA group, and talked to you for hours about how much you love your kid.

I was high for a week straight. Doesn't need to go any further than that.

Smart choice.

Didn't say you don't. Only said I was high enough to listen.

Watch your weaknesses, Jack. Wouldn't want someone to come along and make a target of them.


[ It's a shame that this well-meaning advice comes across as more of a threat. As it were, Slade is just terrible at well-meaning advice. ]

Don't remind me.

Sure. Thought it was pretty clear cut, though. 44 pages to say 'you cook, I kill'.

Itโ€™s been known to happen.

Tends to work out better when everyoneโ€™s on the same page. In those instances.

You really want to know how often I sleep with my bosses, Jack?

As my boss, Iโ€™ll have to question your professionalism.

Right.

And youโ€™re the dude who signed them.

So where does that leave us?

'Lobotomized' is one word for being drugged past the point of recognition. Itโ€™s good that nothing happened. Canโ€™t imagine the person I was then would have allowed it to go past handshakes and high-fives, anyhow.

And I donโ€™t expect anything. Thatโ€™s the point. Cover the bases if we frack (canโ€™t swear, you know what Iโ€™m trying to say), donโ€™t lose sleep if we donโ€™t.

Doesnโ€™t really matter how it goes down. The list was boilerplate standard. Iโ€™m sure youโ€™ve seen it before.

But since weโ€™re on the topic, what *can* you do?

No offense taken.

And donโ€™t worry. Iโ€™ve got knock-knock jokes to keep you on your toes.

Havenโ€™t done anything with tentacles since my tour in Japan. Most I can do is electrocute and make you feel like shoot

sheesh*

shiitake mushrooms*

for a while after. But electricity doesnโ€™t mix too good with your type. Gonna leave that one off the table.

Donโ€™t throw electroshocks at an electrobot. Got it. Thanks for the tip. Couldnโ€™t have figured it out on my own.

Seriously, Jack. Iโ€™m not going to zap you. Any of you. I donโ€™t want you dead, and I think Iโ€™ve had my fill of monster killings for the time being.

And contrary to popular belief, I donโ€™t find murder to be all that sexy.

So you talked to Harley. Doesn't matter if you don't believe me, but I'll tell you anyway: it was an accident.

[ Unlike with Adeline, Slade won't blame Harley for throwing the first punch. ]

Funny. Murder was also on my agenda. Didn't end with sex, but murder alone rarely does it for me.

She's favorable, yeah.

But killing is a job. It's taking out the trash and washing your hands afterward.

Foreplay is a sparring match. Or a fight in the kitchen, but only when you're both in on it. Don't need corpses; those are a dime-a-dozen. A good challenge has more merit.

Not why I kill people.

[ But the rush does just sort of happen. Sometimes. Itโ€™s a case-by-case basis with that one. ]

But sure, tell me all about your latest power trip and how you probably get off on telling people theyโ€™re fired. Seems like a thing with you corporate types.

Is that what the moral of this story was? Iโ€™ll keep it in mind.

If someoneโ€™s special, they arenโ€™t your Smurfbuddy. If it wasnโ€™t clear before that we operate differently...

The only person Iโ€™d โ€œshow-offโ€ for is my wife.
