3. We promise to be better, said the folks at home
4. I can chew like a cannibal, I can yell like a cat
5. Plots and sex scandals failed outright
6. My friends say I'm acting peculiarly

8. Thank you for funny cards from Spain
9. Hit me with those laser beams
10. They let you dream just to watch them shatter
