  1. Jess

    Kitchen meeting.

  2. Omar

    Is this about the dishes? I did the dishes.

  3. Jess

    You moved the dishes into the oven.

  4. Omar

    Where they’re out of sight and safe.

  5. Jess

    This is about the dumplings.

  6. Leo

    What dumplings?

  7. Jess

    The dumplings that said “JESS, DO NOT EAT, I’M SERIOUS” on the box.

  8. Omar

    In fairness, it didn’t say who the “I” was.

  9. Jess

    The box said JESS.

  10. Leo

    Maybe a burglar.

  11. Jess

    A burglar broke in, ate twelve dumplings, and left the TV?

  12. Leo

    Maybe they were hungry. Maybe they had a rough night.

  13. Omar

    Why do you know they had a rough night?

  14. Leo

    I’m just saying, it’s a possibility.

  15. Jess

    Leo. You have soy sauce on your shirt.

  16. Leo

    That’s from lunch.

  17. Jess

    We had lunch together. You had a salad.

  18. Leo

    It was a really... Asian-inspired salad.

  19. Omar

    He’s done. Look at him. He’s done.

  20. Leo

    They were SO good, Jess. Where are they from?

  21. Jess

    My grandmother made them.

  22. Leo

    I’m going to need her number to apologize.
