[The tagline of every human being (or non, in this case) out there about men... Even sometimes men themselves. Elza nods gravely.]
Men. So-- let's stop thinking about them for a little bit. [Elza you are a man, remember, but he likes to think of himself as marginally less silly than the masses.] Would you like some tea?
Oh! [ Elza tea, now that he's improved! Mary brightens instantly, content to forget about the topic of incomprehensible manly pride (at least for a little bit). ]

Great. Go sit down and relax, Mary, I'll be right in with some.

[ He's improved, but still... ]

What are you working on today?

... For a squirrel.

[He thinks of the CCK despite himself as he sets a teacup in front of her on the table.]

Will he wear it?

[ well, that's only if Ao doesn't like this, though.
