Un Sogno nel Cassetto

The last time Cartman saw Stan was at a party at Token's old house in South Park. It'd been a while. Both were drinking beer.

"How's it going?" Cartman asked.

"Good," Stan said happily. "I'm retired now."

Cartman laughed.

"No, you know," Stan said, then paused. "Shit, shit, shit, then back home." He smiled.

"And what about the future? More shit?" Cartman asked, allowing the conversation to go where it wanted under the guise of small-talk.

"I don't think about it."

"Oh come on." Cartman took a drink.

"Mm. Well, the Italians say, Un sogno nel cassetto: 'a dream in your drawer.' I keep my whole future locked away in a drawer."

"Interesting. And when do you take it out and look at it?"

Stan grinned a little slyly, like, Who knows? Then he asked, "Is Kyle here?"
