They tell me they don’t want my help, they don’t *need* my help, so I’m gonna go on my merry way. I’m a psychic! I am a psychic phenomenon. Watch this. I don’t know who you are, but watch this. Ummm… Your name is, ummmm, Lutz! Right? Chief Lutz. That’s your name. See? The name pop inside my head like that. And your name is, ummmmm, ummmmm…
Biddle:Â Biddle?
