[Rodney, John says and he's right, he doesn't even have to say anything and he's right and that's not fair. Rodney knows he's being irrational and he knows he's being overly confrontational and he knows John is trying to make him feel better and is actually very... sweet about this. And it makes him feel bad about himself, like he's not just ugly on the outside but on the inside, too.]

Why not? Everybody's doing it. We just collectively decided to work for the Hunt, nobody seems to have an issue with that. Why don't you want me to have this?

[It's stupid, he knows, and petulant and it's not what John is saying. Part of him wishes he could just shut up and there's another part that wants to double down just because.]

Are you jealous, is that it? Because for once I'd be the hot one and not you, because for once they'd look at me and not you?
