Summary
Cecil's creepy-crawly, olive-oily dreams infiltrate Carlos' apartment at two in the morning. A late night conversation is in order for these two, wherein they find out just where their ideas of mundane and interesting overlap... so long as Carlos doesn't get in trouble for leaving the fridge door open. Seriously, what else was he supposed to do?

Summary
Carlos is absolutely objective. It’s just that it’s quite hard to stay objective when you’ve got Hooded Figures living in your kitchen, radio news reporters stalking you with somewhat dubious baked goods, and everything is so soaked with chemicals, radiation and dark magic that half the time your food disparages your cookery skills while you’re trying to make dinner.
