Looking at one of the mammoth fish tanks at Butterfly, the Chinese restaurant on Farmington, Leo says, “Let’s count by hearts who loves fish the most.”
Mike: “OK, I guess for me, two
hearts.”
Leo: “Yeah, for me about 1,000
hearts.”
Let’s count by hearts. As if ‘hearts’ were a currency or a unit of measurement.
Also, although he’s a boy, he was so mercifully young when he said this that hearts hadn’t been segregated yet to the girls-only section of interests.
While Mike lowballs it with “two hearts,” Leo, living high on the hog, goes for broke: 1,000 hearts.
He
must really like little fishies!
And we have a winner.
