"umm...pay no attention to the man behind the curtain." suddenly bumbling nervous Patrick was back. -> Cos that’s how we know and love him! And may I add: MAAAWAAAHAHA!
the three young adults, and dude who was pushing thirty -> Thanks. Why does he refer to himself as a “dirty KID”? He’s a dirty old man.
"Pete shutting up right now would be a good idea." Bridget said kicking him in the shin. Mainly just 'cause she could. -> All of a sudden Bridget is making me hot, too.
the little engine that could...err...Patrick -> yes. Yes. YES!

pete is a dirty old man. he is. and how much would i love to be able to get away with just hauling off and kicking him. i would. Patrick most definitly is the little engine that could, i tossed around the idea of calling him the brave little toaster buttt...i went with this instead. lol
