[At least, for once, this is an intentional video. He is, however, much more casually attired than usual -- which, in this case, means with no suit jacket, no tie, and sleeves rolled up to his elbows. And he appears to be leaning on a car, cigarette in hand, as ever, and an errant smudge of grease or two on his face.]

I have two questions for the City at large. Call it... research.

[One of those tiny, polite smiles, and then...]

First of all, if there were one thing you think this city is lacking -- and "a means of escape" isn't a valid answer here, I'm afraid, since we all want that -- what would it be?

[A long pause.]

Second of all, I've been informed that I'm in need of at least one "modern" outfit, whatever that means. Is anyone here willing to assist?

Never been in a car? We're going to have to remedy that. Anytime you want a ride, you just tell me. You'll love it.

[gratefultogetaway]

Never. I didn't even know anybody who had a car, back home.

[Anya all you know are orphans and conmen of course you didn't know anybody who owned a car.]

As soon as you get it all fixed up, let me know!

[recognize_an_opportunity]

[Good thing he's totally not a conman then, right?...]

Sure. And we can always go for a drive before it's completely fixed up. It still runs okay, it's just not as pretty as it will be.

[gratefultogetaway]

[Absolutely. And she's not a duchess.]

That sounds great, actually. We could do a before and after ride, see how much better it can get!

[recognize_an_opportunity]

Sure, that'd be fun. And it'd give me some inspiration to get it running even better.

[gratefultogetaway]

Awesome! I look forward to seeing the car in person!
