"Is this recording? ...Um. Hi. This is Wirt. I'm not here right now - I-I mean, obviously, since this is a recorded message. Uh... Leave me a message and I'll get back to you, at some point."
[How can someone so clearly invade his space when they're contained in a small metal device? Everything about this is deeply uncomfortable that Wirt gently sets her down a few feet away from him.]
I. I-I'll write something for you soon. I need time to say it the way it needs to be said, but...I'll write you something. I promise.
[How does he even respond to that declaration of love?!]
It will be. It'll be soon. Good night, Monika.
[He hesitates, unsure if what he's thinking of doing is really the best move, but eventually he reaches out and just sort of gently flips the network device over. Maybe she's like a parrot and if she can't see anymore she'll remember it's nighttime and go to sleep.]
