18. Smart people have three of everything! But… The last thing Harry cared about at the time was his locker. Greg and Kyle further talk about an episode Kyle had, and Greg mentioned there was no one there to tell him otherwise. A while ago, Greg told Kyle to “chew your words.” This statement has helped Kyle out tremendously, but Greg is now that little angel on Kyle’s left shoulder.
