Something feels a little off, though. Andrea confronts Brandon over dinner.

“The spark’s gone.”

“Huh?”

“Don’t tell me you don’t feel less attracted to me than… I don’t know, last week. What’s wrong, Brandon?”

“I… I’m just not into women who can cook.”

“And you notice that just now?!”

“I guess. I never really noticed.”

“I had my own diner? I want to be a celebrity cook one day. And you never noticed?”

“Yeah.”

“Wow. Okay.”

(Brandon is literally repulsed by good cooks. As soon as Andrea gained her fifth (or was it the sixth?) cooking point, their chemistry went poof)

They have a nice time there.

Christy: “Joe! Nice to see you!” 

Brandon: “Hold still! I want to paint you like this!”

In a small town like this, you always run into people you know. Even if it’s your ex-girlfriend. Especially if it’s your ex-girlfriend.

Mr Moustache actually manages to catch the burglar. Yaaay! (My cops are usually rather useless.)

Brandon is glad to see that he will be able to peacefully sleep at night, knowing that the cops in Middleground aren’t all bumbling idiots.

Mr Moustache: “Say, this is a rather long walkway, isn’t it?”

Burglar: “Just drop me off at the prison, Harvey.”

And that’s it for now!

Just one masterpiece. Something that establishes him on the market. Then he can quit his job and become a full-time artist.

It looks like his emerging fame is attracting less benevolent creatures…

Burglar: “Jeez, that is one long walkway!”
