Absolutely, ma'am. I get formal, I get formal like it's nobody's business.

Ohhh... well, I think you'll look very distinguished like that!

[teehee, it's been a while since she's seen that style of dress on a person Bro's age.]

I've only seen one clothing store... oh, but you know what, apparently I am supposed to make clothes too! I wonder if I have a hat pattern?

I just might! They never go out of style, after all. Gimme a sec.

[she puts down the phone and for a long time it sounds like there's a lot of papers being wooshed about comedically as she searches for hat patterns.]

Got it!

Lemme guess- you're a superhero back home. Capes and tophats and jumpin' over buildings all the time.

[GASP HOW DOES HE KNOW ABOUT BATTY MADAM -- play it cool, Foster. Play it cool.]

Oh no, no no! I run a foster home. And I don't jump over buildings all the time.

[ YOUR SECRET IS SAFE. ]

A foster home, huh?

Yup! I take in lost imaginary friends that were abandoned by their creators after they grew up, and then my granddaughter and Mr. Herriman find new homes for them.

Now that's downright respectable right there. Gotta give props for the imaginary friends.

That's right! Imagination should not be squandered. If the friends can find a new place in the world, then it will be a happier place.

Coulda used more along those lines back at home. Place'll get boring pretty fast when you're not payin' attention.

Oh? What about your home was boring?

That would be the people, sister. Buncha Toms, Dicks 'n Harrys all over that city, and then there was me and the kid and Lil Cal.

Which I guess I can't get all up in arms about, since someone got the planet destroyed and all. [ Eh. It happens. ]

Sure, there's no use cryin' over an upturned sasparilla. Though that seems like the kinda thing that would still be ok to get your wires crossed about. I say, you looked a little young to have a kid though. What's the deal with that?

Ah, you know how it is. Goin' through life all wild and footloose, burning down the city with reckless youthful hijinks... and then a meteor with a baby and a dead horse on it wrecks the best record shop in the state.

So I hauled the little guy outta the crater and took him home. [ Exactly what any responsible adult would do. ]
