Wow.
Imagine how good they'd be if they weren't missing something.
That was a-mah-zing.
Yeah, just a little something Kimch and I threw together back in the day.
You know, I'm actually a pretty good dancer myself.

Lee hasn't seen these, has she? Th This is picture of Mrs.
Lee? Yeah.
Who else would it be? Oh, yeah.
It look just like her.
Why you draw Mrs.
Lee like a witch? She was the worst babysitter.
- Super strict.
- Mmm.
I always had to go to bed at, like, 7:00, and she made me do homework on Friday night.
- Yeah, she so terrible.
- Yeah.
Still, that was a long time ago.
I'd hate to hurt her feelings, so maybe we should just get rid of these? Good idea.

Lee as witch.
Oh, careful, spaghetti is burning.
Janet drew Mrs.
Lee as a witch, too? What do you mean, "too"? To show what a mean person Mrs.
Lee was.
I'm guessing.
I don't really know.
Yeah, Mrs.
Lee was different things to different people, so That's true.
One person's witch is another person's Santa Claus.

But, uh, yeah.
Heard a rumore that your compadre is occupado ce soiree.

Pastoral care never ends.
Well, we all have to do right thing.
That's what I do.
Mmm.
I do, but I don't have to talk about.
That's the spirit.
Like Bible say, "It's more good to give than to receive.
" And I know because I do.
Oh Did I get soup? - Oh.
- Yes.
Okay, since you ask, I find $100 bill outside.
- Oh? - So I ask myself, "What would the Jesus do?" So you called the police.
No.
I put aside, in case person who lose money - come back to find.
- Oh.
- Well, let's hope they do.
- Yeah.
No, because I give $100 to customer who always need money.
But technically it wasn't your money to give.
I don't think you hearing part where I doing like the Jesus.
Oh, sorry, I've got to run.
I've gotta time this just right if I want to get there when Eddy's Ambien kicks in.
Dude, you're not wearing my underwear again, are you? No.
Yes.
But I'm sore from dancing the other day.
Oh, well, dancing can be painful.
Shannon reminded me last night.
Hey, what happens in the bedroom stays in the bedroom.
No.
She was actually Highland dancing.
Like with bagpipes? It was not sexy.
Oh.
So, you couldn't - Oh, God, imagine? - I would die.
So, what's the problem? It's a huge turn-off.
It required a lot of "visualization," if you know what I mean.
You had to dip into the reel.
More like a deep dive into the reel, director's cut.
- So, what are you going to tell her? - Nothing.
Big mistake, bro.
What if she puts Highland dancing into steady rotation? She did leave her kilt in my closet.
'Cause she thinks you liked it.
And I said "wow" a lot.
Exactly! If you don't tell her now, you can't tell her later after she's done it again.
She'll feel like an idiot.
Trust me.
Gwen's into baby talk.
Ouch.
I thought it was a one-time thing and she'd stop, but It nebbah ends, Twung.
Nebbah ebbah.
Oh, Gus.
How you going? Anything excite happen? Not really.
You know, the same old, same old.
Oh.
You not find anything special when you get home other day? Nope.
Wait, that's not true.
I found this bag in an old suitcase.
It's like you said the other day, something good was right under my nose.
Uh, what you do with the old bag? I threw it out.
Why you do that? Have you seen all the pockets in this one? - And the zipper practically closes.
- Oh, Gus.
I put money in old bag.
Mmm? $100 bill.
Oh, thank you.
Where is old bag? In there? Yeppers.
So Oh.
My bad.
Caramel macchiato.
Pour vous.
You didn't have to get me that just because I said I was dreaming about drinking one.
The third text you sent kind of made it seem like it did.
Well, it is a lovely surprise.
Not unlike the performance I got to see the other night.
I know, right? So energetic and hoppy.
No one's ever done that for me before.
Oh, was it too much? It was, wasn't it? No.
No! I loved it.
It just seemed like so much work for you.
All the rehearsing and kicking and and flinging.
It was a lot of work, actually.
So, don't get too used to it.
Special occasions only.
Well, guess I'll have something to look forward to.
Maybe mark Robbie Burns Day in your calendar.
Is that more than once a year or Oh, you wish.
Hello, Janet.
Is your umma around? She invited me over for tea.
- Yeah, she's just upstairs.
- Oh, Mrs.
Lee.

What are you doing? Oh, Janet! Where these come from? Oh, Mrs.
Lee, so sorry you have to see.
I can't see anything.
Ow! Oh, don't look.
Don't look.

Children can be so cruel, even to people who take care of them, and feed them, and give them everything.

But maybe not bad enough.
