Dan : Oh, I got another treat for ya.
Lorry Evans : What is it?
[Dan slowly closes the door, puts a bowl on the table, pours water in it, takes a hand towel and displays both sides like a magician before tucking it in as a bib, picks up his shaving supplies and starts lathering his face]
Lorry Evans : Say... what is this treat?
Dan : I'm gonna let you watch me shave.
Lorry Evans : You're too good to me.
Dan : Any woman who can get me to shave more than twice a week must have something.
