Loraine: Today is today. Tomorrow is tomorrow. Who's left? Ben and Laura. Hey, Ben and Laura! Laurie, Karla, did you ever watch the show Duet? Did you do something, Annie Hartz? Ay Dios mio! Ayudame! ((She hoists two bags of trash over her shoulders and dumps them in the hall...
Lovedart takes third place, after the Tidal Waves, and hands the $75 check to his fiancee for their wedding fund. (They're a lip-sync couple.
