"My point is, Fraser, the thing of my point in this situation is that you do not know what you are talking about because I love this car, and I would do anything for this car, and for you to say otherwise is just, it's just -- it's wrong, Fraser, and I expect better of you, and I don't know why you would say such a thing."
That is such a perfect Ray Kowalski sentence that I am prostrate with delight at the Ray-ish goodness. Ray's statement to Fraser at the end, and his behavior, is likewise absolute perfection. You have mastered these characters. It's a beautiful thing to see. Great, great piece.
Since others gave you typo comments, I will, too. Here's one you won't see everywhere, but since this piece is in first-person Fraser POV, I'd expect this word to be correct--Fraser would know, wouldn't he? "Bicep" isn't a word. It's "biceps," whether you're talking about one arm or both. It's Latin for "two heads," and refers to the shape of the muscle, which has two heads or points of origin. "Triceps" and "quadriceps" have three and four heads, respectively, and there is a biceps in the back of the leg, too.
