Grover Underwood: Was she always like that?
Ares: Who?
Grover Underwood: Your sister. Athena.
Ares: What do you mean?
Grover Underwood: Always making things more complicated than they need to be so people will think she's smarter than you.
Ares: Thank you! I can't be the only one who sees it, right?
Grover Underwood: No. Not at all.
Ares: It certainly feels that way sometimes. And seriously, she's the smart one? Really? If she's so smart, explain the owl. She talks to it, like, all the time. This fat, nasty little feathered rodent. And it's like her best friend. And we're so sure that she's a genius and I, no owl, am not?
Grover Underwood: Totally!
Ares: It's like people only see what they wanna see and ignore anything at all that doesn't fit the story they like to tell themselves.
Grover Underwood: Exactly!
