I, uh, think I got something in my eye... or allergies or sumthin'.

[Dammit. Way to make it obvious Joey.]

I guess I'll need ta make sure you've da new numbah now dat you're in here eh?

[He wipes his eyes and sniffs again. Time to get some semblance of composure back before he loses it again.]

Didja just get here? If ya did, I've been here a while so I can show ya around n' stuff. Ya know, if dat's ok with you of course.
