Transcript:
Lupin: Studies have shown regular ankle reinforcement is crucial to People's confidence. Elvis: People read constant reassurance. Ankle rubs show People you care enough to make them smell like you. Don't mention it. Puck: Ankle rubbing provides People with gentle encouragement when they return home after a hard day. Lupin: The closer to uneven terrain, the greater the need for positive ankle reinforcement. "Good Floor, Better Stairs, Best cliff" Puck: Hello. You have value. You are appreciated. Elvis: If you end up beside the food bowl, so be it. Puck: Oh, my. What have we here?

We used to have a little cat that if you ignored the ankle rub persuasion would then smack her food bowl across the tiled kitchen floor to get her point across. And boy could she curl that dish :-)
