Shawn Spencer:
You know how when we were kids, there were all those cool prizes at the bottom of cereal boxes?

Juliet O'Hara:
Yeah.

Shawn Spencer:
Okay, well, there are two kinds of kids. There's the kid who flipped the box over and opened it from the bottom and grabbed the prize right away. And then there was the kid who waited patiently and ate bowl after bowl of cereal until... until the prize just tumbled out on its own. There's also a third kid named Mikey who'll eat anything, including the prize, but he's not really important right now.

Juliet O'Hara:
Okay... and?

Shawn Spencer:
I didn't wait. I didn't wait for my decoder ring or my Frankenberry action figure when I was a kid, so what am I waiting for now? All I know is that I don't want to miss out on the prize.

Juliet O'Hara:
[nervously] What are you trying to say, Shawn?

Shawn Spencer:
That I... I...

Juliet O'Hara:
Hmm?

[pause]

Shawn Spencer:
[weakly] I don't know.
