Nope! No free rides to the finish line.

[Rue slings Misfire's arm across her shoulders and heads perpendicular to the parade traffic -- right to the sidewalk.]

I'm taking you somewhere that has actual water. None of that liquid cocaine you call an energy drink.

[Thankfully the crowds are pretty cognizant of this giant technicolor pheasant-dressed queen, and they part as needed to get Misfire to the hole-in-the-wall restaurant that is thoroughly enjoying and hating the foot traffic. Rue calls out for water in Japanese, and after some kerfuffle, one of the employees produces a cold bottle of water. Rue opens it for Misfire and holds it up for him to take.]

Here. Rehydrate and rest. Then you can jump back into the parade and walk your own damn ass past the finish line, okay, baby?

[How someone can have this much fun while making sure someone's not gonna die?]
