This is the best day of Eliot's life, and he's not even getting any action yet. Thank you for being you, Lantar, flanging and all. If possible, Eliot himself is getting even more bubbly in contrast.

"I really think you're exaggerating my importance," he giggles, which is patently untrue, "but if it worries you so much, all riiiight, I'll keep my magic lips off the mayor. Now, unclench before you pop something important."

We already know from the future that that. Is also patently untrue, but he probably means it as he's saying it!
