Well, do the people at work

even know what happened?

Let's just tell everyone it was

a mugging, okay?

You're not even going to

tell Jack?

And have him ask me for all

the details? No, thank you.

Oh, come on.

He wouldn't do that.

I just can't even fathom telling

people something like that.

I wouldn't even know what to say.

Mate, how you doin'?

That's crazy, what happened to ya.

I know.

Where'd it happen?

Just three blocks away

from my place.

Look at that shiner!

Oh, you should see

the other guy.

So what did he take?

Just some cash and credit cards.

What a f***ing prick.

Yeah.

Oh my God, Bonnie,

you look awful.

I think what she means is:

"you look bad ass. "

Yeah, that's - that's what I meant.

Where did it happen?

Just three blocks from

my apartment.

Were you wearing your

headphones?

I always walk without my

headphones at night for

this exact reason.

Well, you know what they say, you're not a

real New Yorker till you've been mugged.

Is that what they say?

Yeah.

That or ten years, I think?

It was a full moon, that's why.

And Mercury's in retrograde.

I thought that only

affected phones?

Yeah. Well, I suppose we

should let you get back to it?

Yeah.

Let me know if you

need anything, mate.

Will do, thanks.

You look great.

It doesn't look that bad.

Not according to Mikaela.

Oh my god,

that girl wouldn't know tact if

it punched her in the

face - sorry, too soon.

- Oh my god.

- Foot in mouth.

So are you going to

show me your stitches?

Oh my God, that's disgusting.

Hey, um, I'm sorry.

Jack...

If I just made you get in the cab with me,

none of this would have happened.

Stop. It was my choice.

You scared the sh*t out of me.

Yeah, you and me, both.

F***ing scumbag.

Bonnie, I can't believe it.

I'm so sorry that happened to you.

How are you feeling?

It actually looks

way worse than it is.

Mmm you poor thing.

Anyway, just so you know, I've

freed up Guy's calendar so he

can help you out on the.

Speakeasy job.

Oh, you didn't have to do that.

No, he already started on it yesterday.

And I moved all of your client

presentations to next week, too.

Oh, I should be fine for Friday.

I just, I - I thought it might

be for the best.

Right. Of course.

Wouldn't want anyone to think we're slave

drivers around here, now, would we?

No.

Alright.

Well, you just take your time settling

back in, ok?

And just ask Guy where he got to.

Hey!

Como estas?

You're cooking?

Yeah, I thought I'd take a shot

at poisoning us for the evening.

And you've got

multiple processes going!

If you're gonna do something,

might as well go all the way, right?

Yeah.

I should, like, write a blog about this
