+ | [[Megan]] is returning after a short absence of under two minutes. | ||
+ | [[Cueball]]'s reaction is as if she had been gone for years, and had formed a relationship with someone else while waiting. | ||
− | + | His pause before admitting to the affair, as well as the claim of having a son by the affair Megan's age suggest that he is joking. It is impossible for Cueball to have a son Megan's age from an affair while he is notionally seeing Megan - unless he had the relationship with Megan, and the affair, 9 months before she was born. Certainly not within the 90 seconds Megan claims to have been gone. | |
− | + | The title text is telling us that this dialogue is from [[Scott]]. | |
