Easy, easy. Every boy I know growing up wanted to be a leader like Leonardo. That's all. He was always too serious for me though. I was always more drawn to Michelangelo and Raphael. It's not your fault, Don. Honest. The show just seemed to stump you for the important stuff from what I can remember.
[He smiles gently at him.]
Like you said: The show's not an accurate reflection. And hell, I'm honoured to actually know the real you way more than the cartoon you anyway. It's not playing favorites with real people in my case as I've never honestly met any of you.

In that regard, I like everyone equally.
