Dax does so and then notices the cup cakes. Dax: Are those Spencer's special? Mack tells him they are and Dax gets a cup cake. When Mack doesn't get one, Dax asks him what is wrong. Mack tells Dax he is not sure if he even likes cup cakes or adventure books. Mack doesn't know if what he likes is programmed or really him. Dax tells him he is going through an identity crisis. Dax suggests he tries new things and see what fits. Mack likes the idea.
