The Van Buren Boys Season 8, Episode 14

Peterman

Well, it started out nicely: 'I'm returning some pants.' A very identifiable problem.. (turns page) 'I set of down a train tunnel.'.. (turns page) But that's where the story takes a most unappealing turn.

Elaine

Oh, no, no! That's where it gets interesting! Don't you see? The - the train is bearing down on you, you - you dive into a side tunnel - and you run into a whole band of underground tunnel dwellers!

Peterman

It just seems so cliched, and obvious. It's not interesting writing.

Elaine

Yeah.. yeah. I know. Um.. how about if, instead of.. diving from the train, you.. uh, you, I don't know, you slip and, and fall in some mud, and.. ruin your pants?

Peterman

(Intrigued) The very pants I was returning. That's perfect irony! Elaine, that is interesting writing! (The intercom beeps)
