ROSE: Maybe you and I should form some sort of support group.
ROSE: Isn't that what people do?
TEREZI: WH4T?
ROSE: I'm doing my best to dredge the memory of my dead civilization for salient protocol.
ROSE: I think that's what we're supposed to do.
ROSE: Once, when humanity was still a thing, those like us with similar problems would band together, smoke cigarettes, and psychologically dismantle each other.
ROSE: But like, in a positive way.
TEREZI: TH4T SOUNDS HORR1BL3
ROSE: It surely will be.

ROSE: I'm sure when the time comes, accessing your full potential will involve tapping into just the right platitude.
ROSE: I don't know. I'm too hung over to give good seering advice.
ROSE: You see? This is the problem.
ROSE: Hence the need for a not-entirely-ironic support group.
ROSE: Let's do it. I declare Rainbow Rumpus Rehab Town is now in session.
ROSE: Where the fuck is a gavel when you need one...
