We're both onboard, Lt. Dan. Is this a trick question?

My mama always said straight-line depreciation was like a box of chocolates.

LT. DAN IS SHAKING HIS HEAD, CONFIRMING HIS ANTICIPATION OF THAT STATEMENT

Abstract is as abstract does, if you get my drift.

Lt. Dan begins to smile, realizing he has caught on

Ah yes. The old "hide the capital gains" trick. Brilliant!

Brilliant and profound, as usual.

Gump, you're scary, man.

I'm not a smart man.

I said scary.

Oh.
