2. A sharp jab in the ribs. A pull on a hand and a whisper in the ear, "That's him."

4. The candle is blown out.

5. A phone rings in the dark.

6. "I have no friends!"

7. "Where are you going? I'm right here."

9. "Since we're in the neighborhood already, can we go to the Richard Rodgers Theater? Just so I can take a picture in front of the Hamilton sign.

18. You waste your ink.

19. You don't.
