| <p class="MsoNormal">'''Buster''': You probably lost it.
| |
|
| |
| <p class="MsoNormal">'''Arthur''': I've looked absolutely everywhere.
| |
|
| |
| <p class="MsoNormal">'''Buster''': Maybe giant mutant mole people took it!

It's really good.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> (the flashback ends) </span>I never thought it was the one you lost because you'd never throw a library book on the ground.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>But when no one else had it, I figured it might be the same one.
