Transcript:
Granddad: Happy Fourth, Huey. Huey: Whatever. I don't know what's more sad--the way we pretend we still live in a Democracy, or the fact that we're all forced to sit and wait in fear for the next terrorist attack. Some holiday... Granddad: Okay, so...what did you want on your turkey burger? Huey: A little potassium iodide, thank you.

An interesting reference to potassium iodide (KI). Is Huey anticipating a nuclear terrorist attack? (Potassium iodide is used, among other purposes, to help protect the Thyroid gland from radiation damage – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_iodide .)

his granddad should give him exactly what he wants. :)It’ll be nasty and his own fault (although he’ll never admit to that)
