[The room is in a state of relative disarray. Empty snack wrappers are littered about like confetti, and random papers just seem to be strewn on almost every surface. None of the boys have really bothered to keep the space clean, as it's not as if they bring guests over. Egon doesn't seem particularly bothered by this as he leans down to pick up a clipboard and some odd-looking device from the coffee table.]

[He gestures towards the couch, which is surprisingly clean of debris and clutter.]
