-- a lunge rope, so while I haven't been in the saddle, I've still been working with her. I know my horse, Thor Odinson."

"But both myself and my horse have boundless energy after being away from a saddle for so long. I'm going to wish -- (Thor Odinson)

-- you luck, Thor, because you're going to need it." (Thor Odinson)

-- will not lose." Rounding a corner, the pair reached the short track which led to the stables. "And I'm about to -- (Thor Odinson)

Kind of just koala clings to Thor Odinson, because she missed him too.
