Part 3/6:
A Buddy System of Sorts
The narrator humorously reflects on the situation, suggesting it was akin to a "buddy system" designed for such awkward yet humorous moments. It seems there was no pretense in Berle’s request; rather, it was an invitation to share an absurd aspect of his life. This moment, while it could be perceived as strange, was grounded in the familiarity and comfort that existed between the two at that time.
