Spike:Lynda? Hey look, I know you're upset. I know you're probably crying. Look, there's something I wanna say. You don't have to answer, or anything. This is kind of difficult... I mean, my dad - he thinks apologizing is what your wife does if you hit her enough. Anyway...Well, the point is...Well the reason I came in tonight was...was to show you that I'm not the total jerk that you thought I was! You know, maybe what I found out was that you weren't the total, well...Well, that you were human. I mean, there have been rumors! Look, all I'm trying to say is...is that it's okay to be, well you know, human. I mean, you don't have to hide it! I mean, we won't think you’re a lousy editor because you…well because you cry and stuff, right? Okay?

She opens the door and walks straight past him into the newsroom.

Lynda:Okay everyone; let's get something done here! Tiddler, clear away the dishes. Kenny, I want to look at how we are reporting the school trip. I mean it's hill-walking, right? That's potentially controversial, maybe even dangerous. Let's get an angle.

Kenny:Okay, boss. I'll get Freddie’s notes.

Spike:Lynda…Are you really expecting any of us to believe you weren’t crying in there?

Lynda:Of course I wasn’t crying! Spike, he was just this guy I went out with.

Spike:Why don't just take a minute and relax?

Lynda:I'm fine!

Spike:You can't keep this up, Lynda – nobody can.

Lynda:Watch me!
