    After freeing Lance, you can try to free Will.

    So Pig doesn’t understand the word “freelance”, but can use the word “incarcerated”?

    I wonder if Rat is referring to his job at as a barista at Joe’s Roastery. He was never a model employee. I’m surprised Rat manages to keep any job.

    There should be a way to use a lance to break out of prison.

    In prison, Pig would be able to talk to Lance-alot!

    Don’t quit your job until you have a successful freelance income, Rat.

    Personally I would leave Lance in jail, but I would free Dom.

    Not in the authoritarian hellhole of California. They made freelancing illegal, as a worker protection. You do not know what is good for yourself.

    Oh c’mon! What is this ‘finally’ crap? Rat’s quit his jobs so many times over the years that I’ve lost count. And you know, sure as shootin’, next week he’ll be right back at them, like nothing ever happened.

    Wasn’t Rat a barista? That’s going to be hard to freelance.

    After wandering through the aisles of a health food store it seems someone has freed Huey Gluten.

    Okay, Rat and Pig; take this act to Las Vegas and see how it plays in the dinner-and-a-show venues.

    Personally, I think a bunch of the old comedy duos all did it better….
