"Get your axe and your pick and your shovel and your spine. We're goin' prospectin'."
"What?"
"That. The quote. I don't get it."
"It's an old saying. It's about puttin' in a hard day's work."
"Seems... antiquated."
"How so?"
"My grenade launcher's full auto and goes boom on command. What do I need hand tools for?"
"It's a metaphor. It ain't literal. At least not anymore. Your launcher is your hand tool."
"Ahh. Got it. Good to know."
