Most of the time.

And I'm a family man.
Advanced intellect, speed, agility.
I excel in the kitchen

COMPUTER". Do you experience feelings of fear?
- No. -(LOUD EXPLOSION)
These are human insecurities.

Um, yeah. I mean, yes.
This is just like... (CHUCKLES)
Um... Yes.

The nervous system doesn't like surprises.
COMPUTER: Please list what scares you.
Failure.
Leaving my family. Um...
