Transcript:
Narrator: Our hero's life with the Duke has become as predictable as spring rain in Scotland. Zonker: Another day with my beloved tea roses. Narrator: Oh, there was the odd distraction, such as the time the delectable Lady Sunwell rode by to ask directions. Lady: I say! Zonker: Hello? Narrator: But even on occasions such as these, when walks were shared, glances exchanged, and promises whispered... Lady: My sweet man-child! I shall never forget you! Narrator: ...he was always back in time for dinner. Zonker: I had the strangest day.

Yes, this is the only time I can recall anything like a love interest, or even an attraction, in Zonker’s life. Love him eating the drumstick with his hands.
