Alix: Little worm, why do you crawl from the garden to the street, where you could easily be squished?! Maybe it's destiny. Just like us, you must leave behind the comforts of home, venturing into the world to seek your fortune. You could drown, get run over, or be eaten. But still you go, while only a few actually succeed. And even then- what's been gained?? I'm glad I'm not a worm. Holly: Yup. You get to grow up and work for a big corporation.
