Igby:
Are you a vegetarian?

Sookie:

Igby:

Sookie:

Igby:

Sookie:
I roll perfect joints.

Igby:
I'm not putting them down, they're incredible.

Sookie:
Well, thank you.

Igby:

Igby:

Sookie:
Well, what does that mean?

Igby:

Sookie:

Igby:

Sookie:
Ok, so I am a vegetarian, but for purely moral reasons.
