     “Francine!” “(gasps) Stan! You scared me.” “I scared you? You're scaring me. What are you doing here?” “I'm working.” “Working? You're acting crazy.” “This isn't crazy. Crazy is how I used to act, pretending everything was hunky-dory.” “Look, I don't want to do this here. It's time to go home!” “No, let go! I'm working!” “Hey, this guy bothering you, Fran?” “No. He was just leaving.”
