Caleb: I like your stories, Carol. They remind me of jazz. They go everywhere, you never know how long they're gonna take, and you can zone out in the middle and still get the general idea.

Dr. Carol Kenney: Well, I like to think of my stories more like hip hop. They are cool, edgy, and often feature unexpected cameos like the time I saw Yo Yo Ma at the grocery store. [drops an imaginary mic and walks away]

Dr. Carol Kenney: 'Perhaps'. 'Not a complete train wreck'. What's next? 'I love you, Carol'?
