For the pe-nis, he thought-was, his, owwwwn!
(inner voices) Was, his, own!

Tyrone's conscience/subconscious is trying to tell him Hey - don't
be too quick to assume that Free Will no longer applies just 'cos
you've found out about Them. Giving yourself the role of Tool of
Others is just as lazy, just as slothful as your old pre-revelation
lackadaisickal self. Keep a handle on your freewheeling Americanism,
chum - that's what They're trying to condition out of you now.
Oh, those reader traps. Got me again.
