Quote 4
"I wanted to ask you if you would like to come to dinner at my house."
The only word I could think of was "Why?"
"Because you're my first friend in Pennsylvania." (3.16-3.18)
Why Penn thinks that Crash, a person who treats him like dirt, is his "friend" is beyond us. Is that being nice, or is that being delusional?

Quote 5
"John, I would like you to meet my mother and father [...]. Mother, Father, this is my best friend, John Patrick Coogan." (5.4)
If John Patrick Coogan is Penn's best friend, we'd hate to see his worst enemy. When you think of Penn introducing Crash this way, do you feel sorry for him? Envious of him? Something else?
