Tristan: "Did you know that in Western culture the magpie is seen as a thief and ill omen, but in Eastern culture they foretell happiness and good luck?"
Mary: "You are such a geek, Tristan."
Tristan: "It's true!"
Mary: "Yes, it's true that you are a geek. Glad you've come to terms with it."


Emily: "Hey… I don't think I have a job anymore."
Mary: "Oh! Me either! I mean I know I don't have a job anymore. I really hope my parents don't decide to sell the house."
Emily: "We could always move in with Tristan. You wouldn't mind, would you?"
Tristan: "I think this champagne is making me delirious."


Emily: "I love you guys so much. You kick so much ass…"
Mary: "We could so rule the world if we wanted to. We're just that awesome."
Tristan: "I think this champagne is making all of us delirious."


Tristan looked frantically over at Stephanie, who was silently staring out the window at the passing scenery. They were getting closer and closer to the center of the bridge, the river stretching out what seemed like an impossible distance on either side of them. She hadn't had so much as a sip of her drink.


Tristan: "What's in this? What did you do?"

ARGH. WELL SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DON'T PAY ATTENTION?!

Hades = totally bad influence on Persephone. DID ANY OF THESE PEOPLE READ THE STORY OF ORPHEUS?! She's just as tricksie as her husband. AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH.

Teachable Moment
All of your comments about Persephone are making me laugh out loud. I'm going to be a Freshman English teacher and will be teaching mythology in the near future. I totally want to use this episode as an example for why my students need to pay attention in class, you never know when you'll run into Persephone and its of vital importance to acknowledge that Hades is a bad influence on her :P

Re: Teachable Moment
Oh man, I hope you're a much more knowledgeable in mythology than my own Freshmen English teacher. She used to pronounce names such as Zeus “say-ooze” or Aphrodite “ay-fay-ro-dite”. She also didn’t know that the story of Persephone, Ceres and Hades is supposed to explain seasons. I had to tell her that.

Mostly she was useless, and furthered the ignorance of Greek mythology for my peers.

The way I see it, Persephone was a really nice girl, maybe a bit spoiled (she was, after all, Mommy's Little Girl), who was totally turned semi-bad by Hades (who I've always seen more as the motorcycle gang leader than the Dark Gawffique Lord type).

Mythology makes my daddy aprts tingle. :D
