Audri said, "Gerek? Are you real? I don't think you're real. I think you're just another hallucination." Gerek asked, "Have you been drinking too much?" Worked up, Audri said, "We saw you die! And Val was dying! Even though she didn't die! And I was going to be stranded here alone! Forever! With a small butler bot! With no pants! Define 'too much.'" Gerek crossed his arms and said, "I define it as someone who, when asked if they're drinking too much, replies, "Define 'too much.'"
