Maxwell: Oh, this is so cool. It's a Limenitis arthemis astyanax (Fabricius).
Faraday: It's a Lemon-WHAT-is?
Seriouslies, Maxie. Not interested. Lemons are totes sour.
Maxwell: Dood. It's not a lemon. It's a Red-Spotted Purple butterfly.
You'd like it, Allie. It's pretty and blue. And it's all blinged out and everything.
Allie: *sniffs* Yes, but I only do pink. Does it come in pink, Maxie, hmmm?
Maxwell: *sigh-h-h* That's okay Mister R-S-P.
I appreciate you.
