Marcus said, "Why would I mess with you?"
Leonardo replied, "Aren't you just pulling my leg? So what’s going on with your marriage, why didn't you tell me? Marcus, you made me feel like a complete idiot this past year."
Marcus casually replied, "Not just this year."
Leonardo didn't expect Marcus to outright call him an idiot and got so mad he turned red. "Marcus, I thought we were friends, but in your eyes, I'm just an idiot! I've decided, from now on, that we're no longer friends. I won't listen to you, I won't... In short, don't expect me to do anything for you ever again."
Marcus said, "Fine, then you can leave."
Leonardo asked, "What did you say?"
Marcus replied, "I said you can leave."
Leonardo asked, "You wanted to have a drink with me, now you want me to leave? Did you just invite me here to flaunt your marriage certificate?"
Marcus said, "Yes."
Leonardo was furious, "Marcus, you are so cruel."
Marcus said, "I just remembered, Cornelia doesn't let me drink, so I can't."
