“Isn’t there some form of transportation we can use to make the trip go by faster?!”
“OF COURSE I DO!” saying the line with a manic vigor.
He’s either extremely excited or he wants someone’s head chopped off. You hope it’s the former.
There was.

(oh boy this guy sounds like an assassin but probably isn’t one)
“Heh, you sound like a cult. Wait, you’re not the cult… right?”
