Ted is tinkering in the lab, shouldering the phone between his shoulder and ear.

Just buzzing in to check on the poor kid. Oh, they'll all laugh

"But this puts me in the sympathetic lead character position! Everyone will be cheering for me to get you back. Especially since I'm lovable and I pull off the puppy eyes.
