'When I smoke, I don't drink,' Tony replies truthfully. The roof time is almost like a confession space. 'Don't ask how it works; sometimes it's just a choice between this or that. Maybe alcohol would be a better one if it weren't for… you know,' he breaks off to take a drag.
'Well, you're one brilliant man with endless issues, Tony. And you've got the best stuff…'
'The pleasure is all mine,' Tony laughs.
It's all that simple.
