So a brain walks in holding a wine glass…

BRAIN: This is a glass of water.
WOACA: And this is cranberry sparkling water and Gatorade for after my bike ride.
BRAIN: So water-based like you.
WOACA: Yes. Fine.
BRAIN: And I'm Jesus.
WOACA: You are not Jesus.
BRAIN: We don't know that.
WOACA: We actually have considerable evidence.
BRAIN: MAKE IT WINE, BABY!
WOACA: Brain. Let's talk about this.
BRAIN: 🍷
WOACA: Put the miracle down.

Brain takes a sniff. A sip.

BRAIN: Ahhhh… very good year.

WOACA: It’s from last year. Last year was a terrible year. And that is still water.

Changes it back.

BRAIN: You’re a real conch you know that.

WOACA sips from her water bottle, tosses a towel over her shoulder, earbuds half on, Genesis playing, and walks away from Brain holding a wine glass containing, yes, still just water.
