[Music] Something wrong, Charlie? [Music] Yeah, Jack. He's, uh, there's been an accident in the caves. Jack's trapped in a cave-in. Is anyone trying to get him out? Yeah, there's a bunch of people there now. And why aren't you with them? [Music] You didn't come here to tell me about Jack, did you? Oh, my stash. Look, I can't stop feeling like this. [Music] Come here, let me show you something. [Music] What do you suppose is in that cocoon, Charlie? [Music] I don't know, a butterfly? Again, it's much more beautiful than that. That's a moth cocoon. It's ironic. Butterflies get all the attention, but moths, they spin silk. They're stronger and faster. That's wonderful, but you see this little hole? This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, struggling. It's digging its way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now, I could help it, take my knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free.

but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it. Now, this is the second time you've asked me for your drugs back. Ask me again, and it's yours.
