Alyssa: So I accidentally pulled out the rubber thing that goes around the inside of the door on Evan's car, and I couldn't fix it.
Jenna: Oh? Was he pissed?
Alyssa: Well, he wasn't paying attention, and I knew Jerry was going to be getting in any second, so I did a temporary set-up and just kinda shoved it back in. Then when Jerry got in, it fell again and Evan flipped his shit at Jerry.
Jenna: Nice.
