I think you told me about him.

I did? What did I say about him? Can you tell me, please?

That he was your best friend.

...Oh. That'd...yes, I suppose that would explain some of the...

It's just, I'd had the sort of feeling that even if I can't remember what he was to me, that...well, that I was rather important to him, somehow. But if that's true...then yes, that would make sense, wouldn't it?

His name was Sam.

I never met him.

Sam! Sam--Sam Wi--With...no, that's not it, Sam Wi...oh, drat it all.

He's gone, isn't he? You don't know him because he left.

Yes, I'm afraid that's right.

I think he must've lived here. With me, that is. But if you don't recall meeting him, then he must've been gone for quite some time now, too.

Before that other friend. Blue.

Oh, I haven't forgotten Blue. And that's been more than a year now, already, since he went back, so S...San...Sam, Sam, Sam must've been gone for longer--closer to a year and a half, perhaps, at least.

That's...quite a long time, to miss a best friend.

Yes, it is.

Small wonder they chose that memory to take away today, then.

...Did I ever say...that is, did he...he worried, didn't he? About me. Like Blue did, and like you do, too.

You do make it terribly easy.

Blue once said the same thing, that the only time I wasn't getting into trouble was when I was asleep. But I did look at the Network to see if there were a curse today, I'll have you know, and took steps to remedy it before I ever left the Warehouse.

Well, I'm saying it with a more handsome face.

I'm sorry you don't remember Sam.

Oh, no, I'm afraid not. You do make a wonderful effort at it, though.

As much as it bothers me now, I'm sure it'll be worse tomorrow, after it wears off. It's like that curse that forces one to be happy whether they like it or not--it's hard to really appreciate how awful it is in the middle of it; it's not until after that the worst part comes about.
