Lou enters the apartment groggily but dutifully (it's impossible to say no to Hypatia!!!), carrying a bottle of cheap wine and a bag of organic potato chips. He too is covered in a purple rash and looks terrible in general. When he spots Hypatia's guest, he just stops in his tracks and blinks, confused.

"Wow, I thought the fever was gone, but I think I'm still seeing things," he mumbles at Rufus and Rory, rubbing his eyes.
