Transcript

Edward Verres	So, as far as you know, it wasn't after you, or anyone else, and your encounter was an unfortunate coincidence.
Elliot	(by phone) Sorta, yeah, but what about Lord Tedd?
Edward Verres	(by phone) What about Lord Tedd?
Elliot	(the Goo shown in the background) What if he sent this monster the same way he sent that... thing that became that Goo monster?!
Edward Verres	(by phone) That's extremely unlikely.
Elliot	How can you be so sure?
Edward Verres	(by phone) Elliot, your concerns are based of incomplete and false information. We have been addressing the Lord Tedd situation, and I can assure you, it wouldn't make sense for him to be behind it.
Elliot	(by phone) You have?!
Edward Verres	Of course I have! Did you honestly think my strategy after hearing that some one from another universe was allegedly out to kill my son was to ignore it and hope for the best?!
Wolf and Cranium are at Mr. Verres's office.
Elliot	(by phone, shown as pop-up) That... seemed like what we were doing...
Edward Verres	Well, it wasn't, but that's not important right now.This is all complicated enough without dragging Lord Tedd into it.
Edward Verres	(by phone) I will send my best agents out to investigate the bloodgrem, so you just concertrate on not accidentally transforming again.
BRIINNNG!
Edward Verres	(by phone) Sounds like lunch is over. I'll see you after school. Don't forget to transform between classes.
Elliot	...But I just got back to normal...
