Murdoc shuffled over to the elevator with 2-D close behind; but obviously not close enough because Murdoc tried to close the elevator door on him. "Hurry up Dullard!" said an agitated Murdoc. "I'm try'n!' cried 2-D as the elevator almost slammed shut on his shirt sleeve. "Well that was close" 2-D said out loud. Murdoc just snorted, and pulled out his pack of smokes. "Uh…Muds… I don't think you are allow…" "AH Shut up…..I hate yer type!" Murdoc rudely interrupted. Then it was silent for a bit. 2-d could never handle silence, and he had an urge to hiccup. "Hic….hic….hic…" Murdoc just gave him the death glare. 2-D got the hint and tried to stop. "Wow, this elevator is slow" Murdoc thought to himself. "Hic…hic…hic…" Murdoc's temper was showing. "Dullard, knock it off." Murdoc stated loudly. "I'm…hic…try…hic..'N!" 2-D then slapped his hand over his mouth,trying stop the noise, but it only amplified the hiccups. "Hic…hic.." "DULLARD!" Murdoc screamed. "I'm sorry…..wait, ya cured meh!... My hiccups are gone!" cried the scared 2-D. "It's about time..." Murdoc mumbled.
The cafeteria was completely empty. "I bet the food sucks" Murdoc said loudly. The chef heard him and gave him a dirty look. "Yeah! Ya hear meh! Ya wanker!" Murdoc yelled. The chef just grinded his teeth and continued to cut the onion on the chopping board. Murdoc then snatched a tray and 2-D said thanks for the both of them. When Murdoc got to the chef, the chef slammed the slap of meat on his tray real hard, that gravy flew everywhere, including his shirt. "Here ya go LOVE!" the chef said sarcastically. "Thanks PERICIOUS!" Murdoc replied also sarcastically. When they got there food, Murdoc literally threw his tray onto the table, considering that he was pretty far from the table, and no food spilt. 2-D just stared at him through his big empty sockets. "What?... I just wanted to see if I could make it…. Guess I was right." Murdoc just replied. They ate in silence.
2-D noticed how quiet Murdoc was, very odd for him. Murdoc didn't even eat; he just played with his mystery meat. He had bags under his eyes, completely stressed out. 'Emily…" he whispered to himself. " Murdoc?..." whispered 2-D just enough for him to hear. "What?" Murdoc replied with a groan. "What's wrong with Emily?" Murdoc just stared at his food. "She's real sick" He replied. 2-D just starred at Murdoc. He could feel 2-D's eyes on him. "What do ya want meh to say Dullard? That I'm a bad parent? ….. That it's my fault she's here?... That she has bad genetics from meh?... I can't even take care of meh self, let alone a child?!... That my baby is really sick, and there is no cure for her?!... That I've never been soo stressed in meh life since meh father died, AND I FEEL LIKE I AM GOING TO CRACK! IS THAT WHAT YA WANT TO HEAR!" Murdoc yelled with tears in his eyes. "MY BABY IS SICK! AND THERE IS NO WAY FOR MEH TO MAKE HER BETTER!" Murdoc screamed as he was about to pummel 2-D , but he then broke down and his fists loosened, and instead of punching he slid down to 2-D's level on the chair and embraced him as he sobbed into his shoulder. 2-D was in complete shock. He than embraced Murdoc back, hugged him real tight (in one of those manly hugs, you would rarely see between two men), and let him cry on his shoulder. "She's gonna be fine Muds…. Yer not a bad parent at all. From what I have seen, you are a get father." 2-D whispered into his ear. Murdoc pulled away. And sat on the edge of his chair. "If ya weren't a good Dad, then Emily wouldn't want to be around ya all the time. She loves ya mate! That makes a good parent. Always being there for ya kid. I wish I had the courage to take care of meh own young, but I'm not meant to be a parent just yet." Murdoc stopped crying at this point. " Muds…I look up to ya. I hope one day I could be as good as you one day" Murdoc rubbed his tear stained mug, and gently smiled. "Thanks mate….. If ya tell anyone what happened just now, I'll beat ya so hard, yer mother's jaw will be ach'n got it?" Murdoc replied with a grin on his face in a playful manner. They both started to gently laugh. 2-D remained laughing when Murdoc suddenly stopped with a stern look on his face now. "I'm serious" 2-D then stopped laughing suddenly too when he realized that it wasn't a joke. They were silent once more. "Hic…" went 2-D. "Oh… Don't start that shit again!" yelled Murdoc. " I'm going up stairs to meh baby" Murdoc then started to walk in a quick pace. "Wait!..." 2-D muffled as he tried to follow him and shove the rest of his mystery meat down his throat.
