I wrote a hit play!
From the people who brought you the unforgettable Shifty Lady, comes a new play entitled, "How Dare I Act Surprised When I Eventually Get Fired?"
Receptionist (on intercom): Maureen, someone from State Patrol is on line 3.
MJS: Thanks!
[Discussion regarding client ensues, including arranging surrender.]
MJS (to coworker after hanging up): I'm always glad when the cops call and it's about a client rather than about me personally.
CW: Why would the cops call looking for you?
MJS: Well, you never know.
CW: Actually, you do sort of know.
MJS: I guess.
(Awkward silence).
MJS: I was just kidding.
CW: Oh.
