[Like pieces slotting into place, realization dawns on him.]
You're experiencing one of those strange effects. Your perception of things will return to normal by tomorrow.
[And with that, he stands up, taking a step in the opposite direction.]
Well, then... I'll take my leave. I'm sure you don't want to be around my "demonic" self any longer.
