If you're hearing this message, I am probably not here. Or I am furiously pressing every button I can because I forgot how this thing works. One of the two! Either way, I will get back to you...eventually.

Hey, you don't have to worry about that! [He lightly nudges Joaquin's shoulders.] I've probably woken you up at least once since we arrived in this place. It's only fair!

[A quiet smile, and then Manolo adds:] Do whatever you need to do, though. I'll be here if you ever want to talk.

[Joaquin nudges him back, just a bit harder because hey, getting even meant getting back and then some.]

Hey, thanks, Manny. You're always there for me... How about we get an ice cream then head back?

[Quietly, he says:]

Hey, anytime. You've been here for me too, so...

[As much as he wants to know what’s eating Joaquin, Manolo decides it’s best to let his friend come to him in his own time. The suggestion for ice cream is a welcomed one, and Manolo’s eyes light up. Ice cream whenever he wants is already a novelty, but the fact people sell it from a truck amazes him.]

That would be fantastic! What flavor will you try this time?
