"You can take this, Victor. Work it out one step at a time. Maybe it's only temporary!"
>Laugh heartily
"Yeah. It's all going to wear off in a couple of hours, and everything will be back to normal. It's a joke, or a game, or a free trial or something!"

>"Are you feeling all right?"
"Just peachy. I'm a pegasus!"
