Movie quotes

  • (..) How did I get here, Dad? Where did I come from? Actually... you came from this. It was just another day at the restaurant. Time to make the noodles. I went out to the back, where my vegetables had just been delivered. I waited for someone to come looking for you, but no one did. (..)
