Kellen initially makes some noise of agreement, just to let Kyle know he's listening. He's maybe having some difficulty with the cork. When his hand is abducted, though, it sharpens his focus, and he actually looks up to watch Kyle's shoelace trick. It seems he's following the layman's explanation pretty well; however, when Kyle finishes, Kellen gets that crooked one-eye-squinted look of cynical confusion. "But, it is start to finish. I mean...I went to sleep yesterday, and I woke up today. Five years ago I was five years younger. It doesn't just skip around like that."

He narrows his gaze somewhat accusingly at the tangled shoelace in his palm, then offers it back to Kyle and returns his own attention to the wine bottle. "What good's this theory if you can't skip the shit parts?"
