We have those, too, in the south and north poles. But everyone these days wants penguins.

[hitthebrokenroad]

People wanting penguins doesn't mean people should get penguins.

[farkle]

We remind them to refrigerate them.

[hitthebrokenroad]

You think that's even remotely the same?

[farkle]

Hey, we give the people what they want. Customer satisfaction.

[hitthebrokenroad]

You know kid, if you really want to rule the world you really ought to pay more attention to what the world actually needs.

[farkle]

I do, I am. Penguins are just for fun. People need a good Earth to live on. Penguins aren't the only important things to them.

[hitthebrokenroad]

People aren't the only things that need a good planet.

[farkle]

Yeah? And did you know most of our Penguins were rescued from oil spills? We make sure they get cleaned up and the area they're from. [ JUST GOING WITH IT UNTIL CANON DISPROVES. ] Most of them we send back to the wild after.

[hitthebrokenroad]

I did not, actually. That your dad's idea, or your mom's?

[farkle]

Dad's, but mom will say she helped.

[hitthebrokenroad]

Did she?

[farkle]

No idea, but I'm gonna go with yes.

[ because who denies jennifer bassett? ]

[hitthebrokenroad]

[ Shawn Hunter? ]

Good.

[farkle]

It's the only acceptable answer when she's concerned.

[hitthebrokenroad]

She ever talk about me? [ If so, he can't imagine it's good. ]

[farkle]

Nope, not one word.

[ which she might, but let's have fun with this a bit longer okay. ]

[hitthebrokenroad]

Good. [ Relief? Yes. ]

[farkle]

There was that one time, but I'm sure you don't wanna hear it.

[hitthebrokenroad]

Are you messing with me, Tiny Minkus?

[farkle]

I don't know. Am I?

[hitthebrokenroad]

I think so. Maya teach you that?

[farkle]

Maybe I'm the one that taught Maya.

[ they're equally little shits when they want to be ]

[hitthebrokenroad]

I really doubt it.

[farkle]

When you grow up with one of your best friends as Maya Hart you have to be or you don't survive. Unless you're Riley.
