Gunn to Wes: I want the office on the left. It makes me feel 17% less out of place. from Conviction (Season 5) | Next Clip in Episode |
GUNN: Think fast!
(nails Wes in the stomach with his basketball; Wes catches and manages to avoid spilling his coffee)
GUNN: Heh! Gotta be faster than that in this place.
WESLEY: Cricket's more my game.
GUNN: I've made up my mind. How's Fred doing?
WESLEY: I'm sure Knoxy will take wonderful care of her. Don't you think it's a bit unseemly adding y's to the ends of people's names?
GUNN: Does that mean I have to call you Westle?
WESLEY: Made up your mind about what?
GUNN: (pulling excitedly at Wes' arm) Oh! I want the one on the left. This one makes me feel a little bit less completely out of place. I'd say 17% less. Plus... a little bit of a view of the mountains. Lived my whole life in L.A., now I find out there are mountains. A brother should be told!
WESLEY: It's very nice.
GUNN: So's yours. I mean, if it works for you. We can switch if you don't like the—you know, the kung pao or whatever.
WESLEY: Feng shui.
GUNN: Right. What's that mean again?
WESLEY: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, feng shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.
GUNN: You having second thoughts?
WESLEY: You're not?
GUNN: Man, do I look like I belong here? You got the mystical creds at least. I just hit stuff. I mean, even if this works, and we can turn this place around, use it to do some good, it's gonna be a long, long while before any of us gets anywhere near comfortable here.
