It's not fun, though, if it's death or near-death. I think... at this point, I should probably avoid it.

But, uh, no. Michael's not here, but his handiwork is okay. I've got a stock of antidote if it turns on... but I'm not making that mistake again.

[Especially now that Jack has messed with it.]
