In this short scene, the young narrator tells his father that he is almost done with his first draft of his novel. He tells him that his father is experiencing a "writer's block" and that the deadline for his work is tonight. The young narrator pretends to be "relaxed" and says that nature documentaries are a great way to "swell your mind" when you are stressed. He then asks his father when he will be updating the site with new content. He says that he will update daily and hourly. The narrator then says that the Buddhist philosophy of "letting go of desires" is a good one to follow. He also says that his troubles are insignificant compared to the vastness of the universe and that he himself is nothing but a "piece of dust" floating in the starry sky. He thanks his father for everything that he has done for him today and asks him if he will always love him. He replies that if he is no longer used to him, he will turn into a "dog person"
