Senior puts reporter on the spot, talks about son and Wildcat comics

Wildcat: So, why have you come by to see me?

Ponce: Mmm ... I hear that you're the go-to girl.

Wildcat: For what?

Ponce: Everyone's special needs?

Wildcat: Special needs in what?

Ponce: You know, like Dr. Feel Good? But you're like Dr. Feel Good, but a girl. I guess it's still doctor; it's not, like, doctorette.

Wildcat: Doctorette?

Ponce: It should be, don't you think?

Wildcat: I don't know.

Ponce: Did you see ... ahm ... "Falling Down?"

Wildcat: Yeah. Officeress.

Ponce: Yeah, like officerette, sterwardess ...

Wildcat: Officeress, not officerette.

Ponce: Well, like Rockette or the chipettes.

Wildcat: This is really good stuff, but I forgot to say the, "Hi, I'm Kylee, you're on the spot."

Ponce: I'm on the spot.

Wildcat: We're both on the spot right now, 'cause this is the last on the spot. But we're doing it together.

Ponce: So, it should be something special, don't you think?

Wildcat: Yeah, it should be something special, so what should we talk about?

Ponce: Ahm ... now I'm really on the spot.

Wildcat: You're very, very, very on the spot.

Ponce: Did you know that I have a son?

Wildcat: You have a son? How old is he?

Ponce: Five.

Wildcat: He's 5 years old? So, what'd you have him when you were, like, 12?

Ponce: I was 15, yeah.

Wildcat: You had a kid when you were 15?

Ponce: No.

Wildcat: You're such a horrible liar! I didn't believe you for a second!

Ponce: (laughs) His name's Kyle.

Wildcat: His name is Kyle? Did you name him after me?

Ponce: I did. After his mother.

Wildcat: Awesome! OK, so great. Because Mike and I have been having a hard time ever since he put me in his comic. Do you think our marriage is on the rocks?

Ponce: He put you in his comic?

Wildcat: You didn't see it?

Ponce: That's really slutty of him.

Wildcat: Why is it slutty?

Ponce: Because, he just whores his comic out to anyone.

Wildcat: Are you calling me a whore?!

Ponce: No, I'm calling Mike a whore.

Wildcat: Why does it make him a whore if he's writing a comic about me, his lovely wife?

Ponce: Because he does a comic about everybody.
