"Never better, Jon," Stephen said. His eyes held a disturbingly bright and yet somehow vacant shine. "Why do you ask?"
"You just submitted a guest slate covering the next eleven months," Jon said.
"It's important to plan ahead, Jon."

"I thought about doing it in height order, but I figured the feminazis would accuse me of sexism," Stephen said.
Jon paused. "Uh, are there hidden cameras in here somewhere?"

"...who?" Jon said.
"The liberals!" Stephen said. "They'll stop at nothing, Jon."
"Okay," Jon said, carefully prying Stephen's fingers off his lapel. "Listen, Stephen, why don't you just stay here and have -- something other than coffee, and I'll go -- uh, cut the electricity to the room to stop the hidden cameras."
"Thanks, Jon," Stephen said, still whispering. "You're a true friend, even if you are a commie-loving Christ killer."

"Right, that guy who claims he's -- "
"Yeah," Jon said. "Do we still have Pepper Potts' number somewhere?"
