GRACE: Uh. Okay so, uh- you know how we talked about suicide and how it’s bad?

ROCKY: How is related, question?

GRACE: Uh, nevermind; we’ll get to that later, maybe. It’s like a place that they float up to.

ROCKY: Is space question?

GRACE: No.

ROCKY: Is mountainous region question?

GRACE: No, you’re being too literal.

ROCKY: Is actual place question?

GRACE: No.

ROCKY: Is like human heaven question ?

GRACE: Somehow also no. It’s like, you float up there and your body regenerates into a younger body.

ROCKY: Oh, we have word for this.

GRACE: You do???

ROCKY: Yes yes. What human word for when you take off old skin and organs once new skin and organs ready?

GRACE: Wh- Molting? You guys molt?

ROCKY: That is what Cats is about, yes question?

GRACE: No, I mean- well, kind of, actually. Oh my god, is Cats about molting? Because they don’t- I mean, obviously it would be actually crazy if the cats did die when they went to the heavyside layer. That’s a family show.

ROCKY: Grace agree, statement.

GRACE: Well, no. Humans don’t molt.

ROCKY: Then how to go from small skin to big skin question?

GRACE: We just grow more. Sometimes during puberty- that’s when most of the growing happens- your limbs hurt because your bones and muscles are getting longer, but otherwise it just sort of happens over eighteen to twenty-five years.

ROCKY: While skin is still on question???

GRACE: Yeah like I said, we just make more over time. If a human gains fat or muscle at any point in their life, they’ll grow more skin to cover the extra tissue. And if they lose a lot of weight, that loose skin will just stick around and sometimes has to be removed surgically.

ROCKY: [Translation error]

GRACE: What does that mean?

ROCKY: Eridian swear word. It means human growth process is gross gross gross. No wonder Grace not understand heavyside layer but Rocky does.

GRACE: Uh huh. And it’s like that?

ROCKY: Yes, is exactly like that.

GRACE: Okay, I feel like you’re lying to me.

ROCKY: No no, would never lie to Grace. Eridians also make jellicle choice.

GRACE: I watched you make up a word in Eridian for jellicle, which is a fake human concept invented by a guy on so much cocaine he probably had to mortgage his house again. You’re definitely lying.

ROCKY: What is cocaine question?

GRACE: Actually, T.S. Elliot invented the jellicle stuff but the show made it like, a thing. Uh, cocaine is a drug that some humans do and it gives you a lot of energy and makes your brain go really fast but only sometimes in a fun way. Most of the time it just makes you really annoying, especially if your roommate is trying to sleep for the first time in thirty-eight hours and you’ve decided that right now is an awesome time to learn the guitar. You snort it up your nose.

ROCKY: Humans ingest drugs through breathing hole question?

GRACE: One of ‘em, yeah.

ROCKY: Disgusting.
