Ahem, so uh, here's the telescope, and when you look through this, well, we technical people like to call it a 'whatshermacallit', you can see things close up. Like these stars, for example.

Hi everyone! Thanks for the invitation, Brian got very excited about it...
I brought some very dark sunglasses for him just in case we might spy something like the temple again

The night sky would be a GOOD idea. We might see more falling stars.
It's pretty up here, isn't it Feffi, Brian?
Excuse Jerome staring at Dragonfly. He's got a crush on her

You've got a rival for Jerome's affections now, Dragonfly.
He's still staring at you though.
The only stars for me are the stars in your eyes
Is the telescope broken? Woe
