Greetings, Cassius Green. I hope you did not masturbate today. We need you sharp and ready to go. I detect the pheromones percolating out of your pores. They say to others around you: "Hold my penis while I piss on your underestimated expectations." Mr. Green, I am a computer but I wish I had hands to caress your muscular brain.

- Moshi moshi. - Mr. Son. Cassius Green of WorryFree calling. Sorry to bother you. I'm calling about who is assembling your phone. Now I know they're being made in China. I'm a big fan of yours. I've been following you since you were with Takashi. I cheered literally when I found out you acquired Tanrio, which is why I'm calling you and not Phonarolla. Mm-hmm.
