“Perhaps you should just look up my information.”
“Mmph. Fine. Name?”
“Bond, James Bond.”
“Bond Jamesbond. Okay, lemme–”
“No. My name is James Bond.”
“Then why did you say all inside-out like that?”
“That’s just how I say my name?”
“And why are you wearing a tuxedo? It’s Tuesday at 11 AM, and you’re at the DMV.”
“Can we just get this over with, please.”
“Sir, the tone is not necessary.”
“I apologize.”
“Let me enter your name. How many L’s in Bond?”
“None whatsoever.”

“Totally!”
“I got a new mask guy.”
“He’s good! He’s good!”

“What now?”
“Huh. You have any death traps?”
“Well, we’re in the DMV.”
“The DMV isn’t a death trap, just a time sink.”
“Yeah. I guess we could go to a diner and have a conversation about how we’re not so different.”
“Have we never done that?”
“We’ve meant to.”
“Well, let’s get ‘er done.”
