Laugh|Act 1:
Two students, a boy and a girl, walk into the library at the tail-end of the school day.
Boy: I like the library. It’s the place to be.
Girl: Why?
Boy: ‘Cause it’s mad quiet up in here.

Act 2:
Two women drinking iced coffees on the subway. The rumble drowns out some of the dialog.
Woman #1: He asks me for money everyday. Everyday it’s like “give me…” (rumble)
Woman #2: Yeah, I don’t like that. I mean you can ask once or twice… (rumble)
Woman #1: You know what, he’s a smoocher.
Woman #2: You’re right, he is a smoocher.
Woman #1: Yeah, he smooches off of people.

Smoocher? He’s a kisser? He kisses people for money? I guess if he asked “once or twice” and they refused he had to up the ante.
