strangetomatoHere's a little scene I cooked up for a laugh. Remember when Beau and Frances bought Tank a certain special flower to spruce up his home? Well, this shows them on their flower shopping trip.
"We have a wide selection of roses," Ripp enthused to one of his customers. "Would you like me to show you some examples?"
"You know, I hear he'll make out with anything," Beau said. "Even robots."
"Yeah, I heard that." Frances played along, emboldened by Beau's pressence. As Beau had said before, it served Ripp right to have the shoe placed on the other foot. He'd done it to him, hadn't he?
"Hey, Ripp! Can I have a kiss? You've kissed everyone else." Beau teased. He continued to make kissing sounds. "Hey, I'm looking for a kiss over here. Kissy kissy kissy..."
"I can't believe we've been waiting here for so long," Beau said, much too loudly. "I was told this salesman was EASY to get service from..."
"Can you excuse me for one moment?" Ripp asked the woman.
"Oh, hey, Ripp! How nice of you to finally come help us. I was just wondering if —"
"So, yeah... is there anything else I can help you with?"
There was only stunned silence for a moment.
"Well, we were interested in a plant," Frances finally said.
"Umm, yeah..." Beau added, "how much is that dick plant back there?"
"We have a wide selection of roses," Ripp enthused to one of his customers. "Would you like me to show you some examples?"

I don't think I need to say it, but I love how Beau is just so...Beau, and how he hasn't turned Frances into a little dick so much as brought that already existing bit of him out, for better of for worse.
That is an appropriate reaction to heckling, Ripp, I approve.
Super cute!

Thanks. ^_^
