Think, Jane. Think!
When we last left our intrepid heroine, she was nonplussed (no, that doesn't mean she was subtracting, but she was confused. What? You don't like big, $10 words? And what's wrong with expanding your vocabulary? Better your vocabulary than your ... ahem ... dimensions.)
And what, pray tell, had Jane so confused?
See Jane stare.
See Jane watch Dr. Noway leave the school with his cute little nieces.
Yes, they are real nieces.
They are not cute little girl robots with bombs inside them.
Jane is very confused.
Dr. Noway has never gone into a place that belongs to the "good guys," such as a school or church or library and (perhaps) most government buildings and NOT tried to blow it up.
That's just the way he is.
Today, Dr. Noway has behaved very differently from his normal patterns.
What is Jane going to do?
Should she have checked for lobotomy scars on Dr. Noway before he left?
Has he been hypnotized?
She knows this is real life, and even though it is very nice that three cute little girls changed Mr. Gru, (see: Despicable Me) (No, I'm serious, SEE the movie!) it could not happen here, in Smalltown, U.S.A.
"Oh, I am so confused," says Jane.
"Yes, 777, I've noticed that about you," says a voice coming from her computer.
"Who's there?" Jane reaches for her super-stunner, and realizes yet again that it is packed away where she can't get at it.
The problem is, the holster for her super-stunner doesn't go with her outfit. She really needs to get a new one, or find a weapon she can carry in her pocket without putting unsightly bulges in her clothes.
"It's O," says the voice coming from her computer.
Jane walks over to her computer, and there is the face of her supervisor. O.
(Even though O looks like Keenan Wynne, he isn't a nasty old curmudgeon trying to take over the world by cheating nice but slightly daffy people, like in the old-style Disney movies.)
"But I didn't call you," Jane says.
"Yes, you did."
"No, I didn't."
"Yes, you did."
"But -- "
"Yes, you did," O says gently, but starting to sound somewhat peeved. (For those of you with teeny vocabularies, that means HACKED OFF!) "You said, 'O, I'm so confused.' So you did call me, 777."
"Well, I guess so, but I didn't mean to call you. And I certainly didn't expect you to answer."
"Get used to it, 777. We have a situation."
"You're telling me."
What is the situation Jane Bondservant and her supervisor O face now?
