Mary usually does the carving but tonight since you are our guest, you could do it, Henry. All right with you?

Of course. I'd be happy to. So I just, uh... I just cut them up like regular chickens?

Sure, just cut them up like regular chickens.

Hello. I'm Henry.

Eraserhead - The Struggle of Regained Sensation
Mr. X:
The girls have heard this before but... 14 years ago I had an operation on my left arm here. The doctors said that I wouldn't be able to ever use it. But what the hell do they know, I said. So I rubbed it for a half hour every day. And slowly I could move it a little, and use it to turn a faucet... and pretty soon I had my arm back again. And now, I can't feel a damn thing in it. All numb! I'm afraid to cut it, you know?
