– So, we’re in the tunnel?

– Yes. Why, you didn’t think we were in the tunnel?

– Well, I thought maybe we were looking at the tunnel, but that we could still see other ways around the tunnel.

– Well, we don’t have to be in the tunnel if you don’t want to be in the tunnel. We can turn around.

– No, it’s fine, I just didn’t know we were in the tunnel. Wait, so I’m a pirate?

– A lady pirate, yes.

– A lady pirate? Because there’s a river in the tunnel?

– Yes. 

– But no boat?

– I have hip waders.

– You have hip waders?

– Yes. And I can catch fish in a hip-wader net to feed us.

– And the horse?

– The horse is on the other side.

– In April.

– Yes, in April.

– So, you won’t let me bring a lantern or any maps, but you get hip waders and a horse is pulling you on water skis?

– Yes.

– Okay, so what are we really talking about? What are you saying about our relationship?

– What?

– I thought we were talking about a tunnel because we were too chickenshit to talk about what’s really going on.

– Oh. I thought we were talking about a tunnel.
