He laughs a little when she rolls over onto her back so he can scratch her belly, not wasting any time in obliging. Kate holding the VCR out to him brings him back to focus on the matter at hand, and he fiddles with the wires on the TV, absently petting the dog as Kate cleans up around the apartment.

Once he's got it, he pushes it into the VCR and presses pause so he can wait for Kate to come back to the room.

"Place bets now on what's going to be on here or forever rest in peace."
