He didn't know what to say to that. He had no idea.
"I just got here, and I'm still trying to settle in. There are all kinds of strange people, and all of them I've met so far are nice, but... I just met Norman Bates. I'm working for a girl who sells her blood to some rich woman for extraordinary amounts of money. Charlie is here, so is the house, but it's my house now. Plus, I don't know if you know this, but the streets and the buildings move. It's all a little much to have to deal with all at once. Then there's you. You know my name before I even say anything, and you claim to have met me the day I was born. I don't really see how that's possible. But I can't help but think that maybe if I talked to Charlie, he'd have some Zen insight about this that would, I don't know, make me feel not insane?"
Ted shook his head. He'd come for the flowers, and found a strange, strange girl.
