Sophia Simone: [showing off to Jimmy her synchronized swimming moves] Swimming.

Jimmy Bly: Swimming? That's swimming to you, huh? I don't think that's swimming; that's uh... a little beyond. I've never seen anything like that. Pretty fantastic. Where'd you learn how to do that?

Sophia Simone: I, uh... I was raised by frogs.

Jimmy Bly: Raised by frogs?

Sophia Simone: [laughs] Ribbit. Ribbit. Ribbit.

Jimmy Bly: Well, I'm glad you escaped.

Sophia Simone: Thank you. Jimmy, what's on your mind?
