Now, it’s time to ask the important questions.





What? Nate's actually smiling, and it's not at Steve's expense?
Transcript
Nate: So, uh, do you go to school around here, or...
Rose: Oh, nah. I haven't taken a class since high school..
Nate: Yeah, I didn't do the college thing either. I didn't want to go into debt for some degree I might not even use.
Rose (off-screen): Right??
Rose: I guess I could have stuck with what I did at the career center, but I hated it.
Nate: Oh, you went there too? What did you take?
Rose: They dumped me into "Nail Technology".
Nate: "English Language Arts."
Nate: I guess I was writing fake business emails while you were learning to give pedicures.
Rose: I can also give you a detailed dissertation on Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Enhancements.
