Faced with the growing realization of Ralph's role in her life, it is up to Vanellope to decide how to convince him to officially be her dad.
Orrr, she can just abandon ship and stamp all these thoughts down until they stop messing up her life. Yeah, that sounds about right. She'll go with that one.
(Nine-year-olds aren't exactly the best with feelings.)

Summary
Grace laughs, the bath's level swiftly rising with the addition of so much mass. "I thought this was disgusting, you're going to join me in here?"
Rocky blurts a huffy sound, taking care as he pulls his remaining limbs into the bath, crouching over Grace's legs. "Inside xenonite suit," he says like he's explaining something very obvious (which he is), "No touching cold, dirty bath. Humans made of water, leaking all day long, then still need to go sit in more water. Crazy." He shivers his torso morosely, sending Grace into a laugh that echoes sharply around the bowl of the tub.

Summary

“What? You’re not wanting to actually do this soap opera appearance, are you?” Rocky asked.
Grace’s ears pulsed with blood flow and he gave a twitch of a shrug.
“I mean…kinda?” he said. “I love As Erid Turns.”
Rocky turned to Adrian.
“Well?”
“Well, what? I think he should do it,” Adrian said placidly.
“Adrian! Grace is not some—cheap floozy of an entertainer! He’s a respected interstellar scientist!”

OR: Dr. Ryland Grace, unlikely Eridian soap opera star.

Summary
“Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.”
“Cannibalism,” I manage to get out.
“New word. Cannibalism.”
