Surely granting the wish to make him “literally read minds” would MAKE him literate?
Alternate explaination: The first one used big words. The second one used a really exotic word, the third one used an idiom, but I can’t figure out why he would have failed to comprehend the fourth one. Maybe it’s a joke about how dumb he is? Or maybe he’s just clueless with women?
I wish I could say this was the first time I’ve been confused. I love me some puns and some hybrid monsters but sometimes you need to really reach to get the fruit off of this thing.

Well, the harder to reach it is, the more rewarding its sweetness!
Wow I’m pretentious.

By his Incredible Hulk grammar, I’m guessing that he’s probably just illiterate.
