"This'll be good. I hope; I don't go to many movies. I see movies, but I'm a stay-at-home-go-to-NetFlix.com guy. What's this about? I can't remember. Mind's blank. Funny, machines blank out under pressure. Is it hot?"
"It's a drive-in movie. Outside. In fall."
"Oh. Want my jacket?"
". . . Sure. Marshall?"
"Yes, Ms. Bowman?"
"You can call me Kerry."
"Okay . . . Kerry."
"Remember that M&M's commercial, where the guy keeps talking at the movie?"
". . . Oh. I'm that guy. You gonna throw an M&M at me?"
"I want you to be quiet, but there's a better way."
Marshall's mouth became busy with other things.
