Oh! [Connor looks down at the popcorn but isn't too worried. He grabs the couple pieces from his lap and happily chews them. He nudges the popcorn bucket closer before taking a couple of fresh fluffs of popcorn and holds them up for Hank to eat.]
Uh. Yeah. [Not that popcorn is exactly filling, but Hank’ll take it.] Guess you could say that.
[He reaches for the popcorn. Shoving it into his mouth as he chews slowly.
It’s nice that no one has shushed them… yet. The theater is, understandably, mostly empty. Whether that’s because people aren’t in the mood for a movie, or they aren’t up for “Sharknado,” specifically — who knows.
Whispered incredulously:] The fuck is this movie, Connor?

Weird fuckin’ premise for a movie. [Not like Jaws, exactly.] This is a “classic?”
[It’ll pass the time, though — and with Connor. Hank hopes Sumo isn’t chewing up the seats in his truck again, but that’s just a risk he’s willing to take right now. Should still be all tuckered out from his bath.]
Well, damn. Then you must know all the twists. [Does “Sharknado” have a riveting plot?? Somehow Hank doubts it.] Not gonna spoil this classic for me, I hope.
[Hank’s just teasing. Doesn’t particularly care, seeing as how he’s not really here for the movie at all.
Reaching for another handful of popcorn now, this time not spilling it all over Connor. An improvement over the last awkward slip!]
Uh huh. Gonna make me suffer through however many hours of — [Hank shoots a cursory glance toward the large screen] — sharks in tornadoes.
[He hopes his sarcasm is coming across, although he knows it’s not exactly endearing — to most people, anyway. But Connor doesn’t really seem like most people.]
[Which is, perhaps, a tragic attempt at a silly little flirt, because Hank doesn’t know much about Connor. Not beyond the fact that he’s sweet on Hank — for whatever reason.]

[He can't help but find it a hilarious choice. There's only one film at a time in these cinemas, he assumes, but they of course got Sharknado.]

[Hank fakes a sigh. Squeezes Connor’s hand.]
Good thing I’ve got such excellent company, then.

Oh, yeah? Thought the implication was there already.
