If you try to get violent, or hurt someone by it, it makes the flowers stop you and make you happy again! How is that a 'fuckin' tree'? It's not having sex!

[Mello grumbles under his breath. If this chick thinks she's clever then Mello is not sorry to inform her that she is more likely off in the head.]
And no fucking tree is going to make me happy.
