"Need more than 1 value to unpack"

So I am aware that that error means there are multiple errors, but I have triple checked my script and came up with nothing. If someone could maybe skim through what I have and see if they see anything that would be great, because my efforts have been fruitless.

    SEAN (talk_think)
I was wondering if you could help me with something.

    TERRI (talk_shrug)
With what?

    SEAN (talk_awkward)
I probably shouldn't be telling you this, but Gale has a huge crush on Whisper.

    SEAN (talk_arms_crossed)
He wants to send her flowers but he doesn't know her last name or address.

    SEAN (talk_think)
That's why I was hoping you could help him out.

    TERRI (talk_mindblown)
I never would have guessed!

Why's that?

    WHISPER (talk_happy_smile)
Because if Gale likes me so much he should tell me in person, it's much more romantic that way.

    WHISPER (talk_handsonhips)
Don't think getting information about me is that easy, Sean.
