Zonker: So! What's all this nonsense about you leaving Walden, Mike? Mike: It's true, Zonk. We found a place in New York. The final move is next week! Zonker: What? Seriously? Mike, are you out of your mind? What's going to happen to Walden? Who will look after it? Mike: We all had to leave sooner or later, Z... Zonker: But why didn't you give us warning? Someone has to keep the flame here, keep the house in the family? Mike: Like who? Zonker: All of us! We could juggle our careers! Live here in shifts! Mike: Okay, you first.
