24	->'''Ed:''' See, I knew that if I just took the can, there was a good chance that I'd get caught. Then I thought, even if I did get the Triampathol to the proper authorities, Kurt would hire some powerful attorneys who would dispute any charges brought against him or Mondo Burger by manipulating the legal system. And the way America's court system is congested these days, it would take months to convict him of anything! So I thought I'd take matters into my own hands and just pour the Triampathol into the meat supply, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard making Mondo Burger a victim of its own foul play.]]\

76	'''Chidi:''' Um. Okay, ''what''.\
77	'''Jason:''' Sheila was gonna get married to my boy Donkey Doug and make him move to Sarasota. It would've broken up my whole breakdancing crew and Donkey Doug was our best pop-and-locker. So I hid a bunch of stolen boogie boards in Sheila's garage and called the cops. I framed one innocent gator dealer to save a sixty-person dance crew.\

82	'''Michael:''' I know everything that happened in your life, and it was all stupid, so I, I highly doubt that.\
83	'''Jason:''' I was a member of a sixty-person dance crew in Jacksonville. We were called "Dance Dance Resolution: We Resolve to Dance". One day, Donkey Doug and I got into a fight, because [[CallBack I'd framed his girlfriend for boogie board theft.]] So he started a new dance crew called "Hashtag Doug Life" and immediately challenged us to a dance-off. He said "Meet us inside the abandoned orange juice factory at midnight." That night, as the clock struck twelve, me and my crew came together with a determination we had never shown before... and slashed all their tires. It was dope. The end. By Jason Mendoza.\

86
87	->'''Jason:''' I want to tell you about a guy from my dance crew in Jacksonville called Big Noodle.\
88	'''Eleanor:''' [[ThisIsGonnaSuck Well, we gave it our best shot, guys]]. It was nice knowing you.\
89	'''Jason:''' I used to yell at Big Noodle 'cause he always showed up late to rehearsal. Then one day, the swamp under my house flooded. I needed a place to crash, so I slept at Big Noodle's house. Turns out that he had to juggle three jobs to take care of four grandparents who all lived in the same bed just like in ''Willy Wonka''. I never yelled at Big Noodle for being late after that 'cause I knew how hard it was for him to be there. And he definitely didn't have time to research what tomatoes to buy. Even if he wanted to, possession of a non-fried vegetable is a felony in Jacksonville.\
90	'''Gen:''' ''[looks confused and horrified]''\
91	'''Jason:''' The point is, you can't judge humans 'cause you don't know what we go through.\

125	'''Bronya:''' Bronya thinks we should tell her Anti-Entropy initiated this Honkai incident to lure and ambush S-rank Valkyrie. She was marked from the start. The Bronya thinks this will work.\
126	'''Theresa:''' Good, but the logical flaw is that Anti-Entropy would have sent better troops if that's their aim from the start.\
127	'''Kiana:''' Hey, listen to my brilliant idea! I noticed Durandal took the Golden Coast Oceanfront Line to get here. We'll tell her that Anti-Entropy was on holiday and happened to bump into her...\
128	'''Himeko:''' That's the dumbest and most idiotic thing I've ever heard of.\
129	'''Theresa:''' It actually might work. It has zero logical flaws. Lemme try this. Wait.\
130	'''Himeko:''' How did it go? She's coming to nag us out, right?\
131	'''Theresa:''' She actually bought it. People say she's honest and frank. If you ask me, I think she's just an idiot!\
