Look, I can't force you to be happy, but now isn't the time to drag everyone down with your bad mood. We're at a party. This is a time for the community to have fun, not...[gestures at the toy] that. You might need those ghosts, but until then, you should take some time to be alone until you stop acting like a kid.
[And just in case Graham complains of being bored:] I got something new for you to take apart. It's outside.
