Kensuke leans even further out in order to capture his distant subject.
TOJI:“Ohhh, if I had a girlfriend like that....”
Kendrix: Interesting bit of opinion in the script - of course, it's only later that they elaborate on what they mean here - I guess we're supposed to get that Shinji's a bit too uptight because he never used to have any friends or family to be silly with, so it's partially a new concept to him.
Shinji is dealing realistically with the situation.
SHINJI:“I don't think you'd have an easy time of it.”
In the true sense of the term the other two are still more realistic than Shinji. Once again they gaze at him with pity.
TOJI/KENSUKE:“You just don't get it, do you, boss.”
