[She wises she could see his face right now.] Ow, my ear...

What? [Still acting innocent...and trying hard not to laugh.]

[invoking]

W-What do you mean "what"?!

What was that... that... that... perverted thing you -- I know it was you!

[wisecracked]

[She can't hold back the laughter and just lets it all out. A least a good minute long of Kenzi laughing.]

Sorry...sorry. But you didn't answer so I had to make sure you'd never let it go to voice mail again. Figured that book would do the trick.

[ Aaaaand he's stumped. ]

I was in the -- [ wait. ] You read that because I didn't answer the phone?

[invoking]

What sort of joke is that?! Why didn't you just call again?!

[wisecracked]

It wasn't a joke it was an effective tactic.

[invoking]

[invoking]

[ ... There's a "reason"? ]

What is it?

[wisecracked]

Prom.

[invoking]

[wisecracked]

Yeah, a big dance the Institute is throwing. I never got to go to prom so figured I might as well take the chance now. Buuuut...can't go alone.

[invoking]

[ A beat.

Then: ]

No.

[wisecracked]
