Jon Burroughs : Can I ask you something?
Frank : Sure.
Jon Burroughs : Why do you wear that?
Frank : ...do you think it's weird?
Jon Burroughs : Kinda.
Frank : Well, normal faces are weird, too. You know, the way they're smooth... smooth... smooth... and blech! You know? All bumpy and holes, I mean, what are eyes like? It's like a science fiction movie. Don't get me started on lips. Like the edges of a severe wound.
Jon Burroughs : That's true. But your head is still sort of intimidating.
Frank : Well, underneath it I'm giving you a welcoming smile. Would it help if I said my facial expressions out loud?
Jon Burroughs : Well... maybe.
Frank : Welcoming smile.

Clara : Ten little bits of bone and skin.
Jon Burroughs : And I'm perfectly capable of going to my furthest corners and composing music.
Clara : Your furthest corners?
Jon Burroughs : My furthest corners.
