The Minutiae of Mandible #3: "Not the Messiah..."

Looking back on this chapter, "Fatale Flop" seems to be out of character for Drake, but it amuses me greatly, so it is staying in.
Originally I was going to play this scene straight, but the witty banter and intrigue often associated in a bout of verbal sparring between the sexes largely eludes me.

But Pratfalls? Now THOSE I know, having done ple

nty myself.

The resulting gag is a tribute to the Lano & Woodley episode "The Pool." I don't know whether they actually coined the term "belly-whacker" but thanks to them, it has replaced the less-humorous-sounding "belly-flop" in my vocabulary.

While not quite the Messiah or even the Emperor of belly-whackers, I think Drake's involuntary attempt merits at LEAST a knighthood...
