Thomis: Disabuse her of the notion, man, and THIS TIME KISS HER. Jimothy: ... I suppose I should go check on her... Thomis: Smooches! Tsamantha: They just want to keep an eye on me, "for safety" and such. Jimothy: Safety? Are you in danger? Tsamantha: Not any more! ... Jimothy (thinking): She just took my hand! In hers!!
