The narrator complains that he and Mr. Lorry are living in the same apartment as they did when they first met. He complains about how much he misses the old house, and how he rented it out so that he could spend more time with Lorry. He also complains about the fact that Lorry is living in a mansion, and that he just bought the place outright. The narrator tries to calm him down by saying that he doesn't live in the mansion, but that he does want to see Lorry, and he wants to kiss and hug him. He says that he'll give Lorry a big hug later, and if Lorry isn't careful, she'll eat him up. He's sorry for that, but he can't control himself long enough to control his emotions. He feels like he's about to fall asleep. He wakes up to find that he has something important to discuss.
