Well, maybe not nothing. He'd given Joey a valuable gift; he'd taught him what love wasn't. During their showdown in the men's room, it had dawned on Joey what love was. Love took long walks, spent time together talking about nothing.

It called in favors and put a town on the map to make life better for one person who lived there.
Love was Troy. — Eden Winters

Cars aren't merely modes of transit or material possessions to Texans; they are something of a state treasure.
