And I'm sorry.

Aren't you gonna cuff me?

Put me in a choke hold? Blind me with pepper spray?

You heard him, Officer. He admitted it.

I'd go with the pepper spray.

Yes, I heard him, all right.

He said he was sorry.

Besides, it looks like everything is all here and accounted for.

Help me out here, people.

Martha?

Merry Christmas, August May-Who!

I'm afraid I do have something for you!

Your ring back.

Sorry but my heart belongs to someone else.

No hard feelings?

Cheer up, dude. It's Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Mr. Grinch.

Your cheek is so....

I know.

Hairy?

No.

Greasy?

Stinky? Do I have a zit?

No.
