Clem’s got himself discharged, if you believe his story.
And he’s a resourceful man. Of course he’s going to make sure he’s got a handy pair of eyes… so long as he’s got something to lord over Durnell. I’m sure if he had to rely on charm to find some more agreeable companion, he could have done so. But let’s face it. He’s decided that Durnell owes him, and who’s going to argue with the man? No one, while he’s armed with bear spray and a bad attitude, that’s who.
She can be forgiven for assuming, by his tone and his words, that Clem is Durnell’s father.
I mean, they have that kinda vibe at the moment.
It won’t last.
I think Clem sees the strong position he’s negotiating from.
Do you suppose that the blank stare is better than burning eye contact when talking salary? On the other hand, you don’t have to put up with the blank stare or the burning eye contact of the prospective boss if you can’t see those looks… and it’s his fault in the first place that you can’t see those looks.
Of course, doing simple things like making phone calls might get tricky. Maybe the prospective boss would be kind enough to help you out with that! Maybe he’d look up the number for a lawyer or two for you while you’re in the hospital and have gauze over your chemically burned eyes. What a nice guy.
Some of us know- you don’t let your friends get into that ambulance alone. You go with them, no matter what.
Chances are, if you let them go away in the ambulance unaccompanied, you’d realize moments after they turned out of sight that your dear, dear friend probably has the dang car keys in HIS pocket.
I’m not sure Clem thinks his talents are being used to their fullest measure.
Well, that’s not entirely true…
I AM sure. Clem doesn’t think his talents are being used to their fullest measure.
Two heads are better than one. Kelly didn’t know how to abuse the appearance of Clem until Durnell tossed in his own notion. With the two of them talking, though, they came up with a horrific notion to turn the poor defenseless writer to a life of contrived evil…
Which makes one think… what will three heads be able to accomplish?
Heaven only knows.
You want a job done, and then find that the job’s done?
Come on down to Clem Twang’s handyman depot, where you can get rooftop snoozers removed faster than you can say, “remove that rooftop snoozer”.
Literally faster than that, ’cause it’s already done!
Call Clem, TODAY!
Durnell’s not one to crush anyone’s dreams without good reason.
If the good reason happens to be that newspapers don’t pay money enough for people to live on, well, it’s not gonna be Durnell who kicks a guy like Clem when he’s down!
Nossir! He’s gonna tell him fair and square that they’ve got a good job for him the very minute that they lose their minds.
More to the point, though, they’ve got a crappy job for him right now.
