Yes, the commentary with that much flavor isn’t something he’s familiar with and It left him somewhat speechless, but If that is really what she truly believes, he has no intention of changing a thing.

I just really hope you will be near me if that happens, like now... Say, do you have a radar or something that tells you when I'm in need of help-?”
