"Camille stood on the windswept cliff, the night's stars the only witness to her lonely plight. One year had passed since her lover boarded the train for the war. One year of tears and long nights and desperate letters. But as the separation grew, so did the time between his letters, each less passionate than the last. Now, on the threshold of the reunion to which they had once both counted down the minutes, she stood uncertain that he would return to her at all. And then, at the hour of the darkest night of the soul, a silhouetted figure. An army uniform. A familiar gait. And a smile illuminated by the stars. And a joyous call from Camille to her lover... 'BEAN DIP!'" Goat: See, I think the man needs a different name. Pig: Names are soooo hard. Rat: Call the chick 'Fritos'. Then you've got something.
