April 6, 1999

BEN: Hey, where's Jen, we're supposed to do the cartoon together today.
JOHNNY: Didn't you hear? The new owners, they fired her.

JOHNNY: The whole strip was bought out by some big corporation. They're overhauling the whole thing. They've even suspended all punchlines till they've made their changes.

BEN: Jen, can we talk about "us"?
JEN: Ben, I'm VERY busy right now, you sort of caught me off guard...

BEN: Well, see that's my POINT. You're never SPONTANEOUS.
JEN: You want SPONTANEITY? Fine. Let's break up.

BEN: WHAT? No! Jen, THAT'S, I... YOU...
JEN: Hey! How 'bout some MORE spontaneity, Captain Impulse? I'll take you back.

JEN: NOW, unless you'd like another heaping spoonful of whimsy, I've got a freakin' resume to write.
BEN: Yes, dear. Sorry, dear. Pencil me in to apologize more later...
