"Am I perhaps right about this?" With a knowing look and a playful lift of his eyebrow, Eric reassured him, saying "Calm down, Ernest. I know you're with Linda. I'm just joking. I won't say anything to her."
Regarding the mystery person Ernest might be searching for Erie figured it wasn't his place to press further unless Ernest chose to share. "What's this all about?" Linda reappeared, having finished her phone call.
