[**.]
Oops, my bad.
See you later.
Wait.
This said it's for Max madigan.
Why does Mr.
Madigan Want ants? He wouldn't.
No one in the right mind would.
I bet it's a boxful of money Or gold bars.
Do you know how heavy Gold bars are? Not that heavy.
Can you take this To Mr.
Madigan's office, please? I got a better plan.
Someone else do it.
I got a bellyful of carrots And I need to nap.
Mr.
Madigan, They brought this To my office by accident But it's for you.
It's either ants or money.
Really? I love getting packages Almost as much as I love These great scarves From our new line.
I love the bold colors: Orange and blue.
Fire and water.
Hot and cold.
Orange juice, prune juice.
We're gonna have Some special guests At the meeting today.
Oh, I can't help it.
These special guests are donuts.
Wait until the meeting.
I'll see you both in 15 minutes In the conference room.
Goodbye, Mr.

That guy could not stop smiling.
These are the best Two scarves You people came up with? But, Max, I thought you liked them.
Remember, fire and water.
Huh.
More like pumpkins And bluebirds.
Do you know what The bluebirds do to pumpkins? They massacre them Leaving a gruesome trail Of pulp and seeds.

The label says, "made especially for Max madigan" "By Sophie girard.
" who's Sophie girard? Only the most cutting edge Designer in Paris.
She practically invented Gree-tur-ple - what's that? Green, turquoise and purple.
Up until then, nobody dared To put those colors together.
They didn't know what happened.
Hey, look.
Something is in here.
It's addressed to Mr.
Madigan.
Open it.
You're not supposed to open Other people's letters.
I could go to jail.
If you do, As soon as you get there Punch the biggest person you see And be all, "who else want some? Hmm.
" I have no choice.
I'm gonna read the card But only because I really, Really, really want Mr.
Madigan To be happy again.
"dear Max, this box contains" "the last of your belongings" "that you left in Paris.
" "I often think" "about our wonderful days" "Along the seine.
" Oh, how romantic.
"much has happened" "since I last saw you.
" "For instance, I got married.
" She did what now? I can't believe it.
I know.
Max has been to Paris.
Ooh, la, la.
This must be why He has been so upset today.
The poor guy's heartbroken.
Well, case closed.
No, case not closed.
The case still open.
We need to make him feel better.
How? I don't know.
I wish I knew what happened Between them.
You're gonna waste a wish On that? If I had a wish, I'd wish for a talking pony Made of chocolate.
Would it just be begging you To stop eating it? Not if you eat Its voice box first.
I bet Amanda knows What happened.
Mean girls always know gossip.
She's outside Talking to Oscar again.
I'll go get her.
I don't know Why you're wasting Your matchmaking skills on Mr.
M When I am still in the market.
You do not want a girlfriend.
All you care about Is playing video games And not getting yelled at.
You wanted to see me? Yeah.
We were wondering If you could tell us What happened Between Mr.
Madigan And Sophie girard.
Unless you like Getting screamed at, At morning meetings, Don't ever mention her name In this office ever again, Ever, ever, ever, ever.
Who? Sophie girard? Ever.
We just want to know What happened so we could help.
I will say this only once.
Five years ago, Max met Sophie While touring a silk factory In France.
Yeah.
A long story, short, They spent When they came out, They were engaged.
That sounds beautiful.
It was, Until she broke it off Without any explanation.
Max is still holding out hope That she'll come back.
He sends her a charm For her charm bracelet Every single month.
Why a charm bracelet? Max believes It's the most romantic piece Of jewelry on earth.
Oh.
You wanna know what I think The most romantic piece Of jewelry is? Oh, it's got to be a Psyched.
You guys thought I was gonna finish That sentence, didn't you? But forget it Because romance is lame.
Newsflash.
If Max hears you talking About anything That has to do with someone Who's name rhymes With loffi papard, He'll fire you on the spot.
On second thought, Maybe you should talk to him About it.
Then I can turn your office Into an extra closet.
What are you gonna do? I've got a plan.
Don't tell me You're gonna fix him up With someone else? I'm gonna fix him up With someone else.
My mom says You never get over a crush Until you find a new one.
What? Everyone deserves love.
Not old people.
But you heard Amanda.
If you get involved, Mr.
Madigan will fire you.
I don't care if he fires me.
I just wanna see Mr.
Madigan happy.
We're finding him a girlfriend.
Leave me alone.
I mean, come in.
