"We want to go Dennis," I explained to him. He crossed his arms and nodded.
"Hey, that's GREAT!" he said in an almost overly-affectionate tone. "I can take you anywhere in the world! That's what I'm here for!" He paused, continued to smile, then added, "And I'm also here to be your... FRIEND!" As he enunciated the word "friend" he drew a heart in the air with his finger. It was a little weird. "So, FRIEND, where do you want to go?" He threw open his arms as if he was expecting a hug, though I really hoped he wasn't.
