Tenji: "Potted Shrimp. Gnomes are using young girls as 'mules' to smuggle the stuff into the country from Norway."
Neve: "I meant the gnomes."
Tenji: "Sterilise the lot of them!"
Neve: "Isn't that a bit drastic?"
Tenji: "No."
Neve: "Why target teenage girls?"
Tenji: "Fresh eggs."
Neve: "Eggs?"
Tenji: "Look, it's no good rogering some thirty-something housewife whose fallopian tubes are as empty as a eunuch's trousers. These gnomes are after prime breeding stock."
Neve: "Good heavens! I thought it was just about the sex."
Tenji: (disapprovingly) "A sad commentary on your prurient and dare I say, self-indulgent generation, Ms Milgo. No, these gnomes are hell-bent on breeding a ******* race of half-gnomes possessed of all the cunning of their sires but a good bit longer in the leg."
Neve: "Wow..."
Tenji: "Let us not forget Snow White! This lovely girl stands 5' 11" in her designer-stockinged feet; the average gnome less than three feet in his cheap, plastic boots. These ******* gnomes will be able to reach the top shelf in newsagents, peer over our garden walls with their shifty little eyes and poke their fishing rods in our faces!"
Neve: "Gosh!"
