The T.O.E. seminar — The speaker, Benjamin Bradshaw (Charles S. Dutton) is asking random members of the audience which animal they most resemble. Kit is studiously taking notes in a little tiny notebook, which does not really seem like something she would do. I would expect her to get up and walk out, muttering "This is some bullshit." But Benjamin picks her out of the crowd because of her "flashing eyes." Kit says she most resembles an alley cat.

Benjamin: "Not just a cat, but an alley cat. Sybaritic, feral, self-indulgent, irresponsible."

This would be fine, and might even be a good description of how Kit sees herself. But the guy mispronounced "sybaritic," making it sound like it's spelled "cyberitic," so I think the animal he most resembles is something in the pompousia assholeus species. Kit doesn't look too thrilled either.

Speaking of pompous — It's another weird black-and-white Jenny writing sequence. We're still at the stupid carnival, but this time we're seeing one of those shooting ranges, and Jenny is one of the sitting ducks. I generally have no interest in exercising my right to bear arms, but I think I might put down a dollar or two to take a shot at this particular target. Well, no: I think I'd rather shoot her laptop, so she can never, ever write again.

Back in the real world, Shane interrupts the carnival scene by wandering through the room where Jenny's writing. But they're both more worried about finding a roomie anyway, so they can pay the rent.

And then Jenny asks whether Shane is okay with the Carmen/Jenny kiss, and manages to pout about it enough to get Shane to offer to invite Carmen over. Great. Hey, Shane is wearing a "Gush" T-shirt — that's Leisha's band. Gimme!
