BETH: How's it going? Still feeling bad?
YURI: Can I have more Sudafed and Benadryl and anything else you got
YURI: I do not understand how human beings functioned before the invention of pharmaceuticals. The Pyramids! The Great Wall of China! Railroads crossing continents!
YURI: NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS built all that stuff without so much as an aspirin. And sometimes BEER instead of WATER! How did they manage? I get a head cold and I can't stand up for more than five minutes!
BETH: You'd probably be more robust too if you got that much exercise.
YURI: Enslaved by a cruel monarch! Worked to death by thirty! But I bet their sinuses were clear as HELL!
