The Pursuit for Punchy Flyers
Lucy: Come on, come all to the grand opening of The Electric Palace. You'll find high voltage savings on current models, prices so low they're shocking! Boltover to The Electric Palace and find out what's happening. Just say - charge it! Well?
Rodney: Uhhh...I just don't know, Lucy.
Lucy: Rodney, this is the sixth flyer I've done for you. I put in everything you wanted. What's wrong with it this time?
Rodney: It just doesn't grab me, y'know?
Lucy: No. I don't know. I don't know what you want!
Rodney: I just want something a little more...punchy, that's all.
Lucy: Punchy? If it were any more punchy, it would have two black eyes and a broken nose!
Rodney: Hey, that's good! Could you put that in somewhere?
Lucy: No. I don't think so. |
