2. Tom has always liked Lucy, but Lucy has always thought Tom was annoying and
unattractive. One day, Lucy comes home to find an eviction notice on her door. Apparently,
her roommate had been spending the rent money that Lucy was giving her on other things.
Lucy only has 24 hours to get all her stuff over to her mom's house, and Lucy doesn't even
have a car. But Tom has a truck. So Lucy calls up Tom and asks him how he's doing. She
tells him that she's always thought he was funny, and that they should hang out sometime.

his jokes are funny because she is laughing after everything that he says.
