After what you just did to his piano, odds are no one will be able to find you later.

You will find this dialogue in “Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown.”

Also, was this still ANOTHER piano that Schroeder had lost, courtesy of Lucy(between the piano she threw up into the kite eating tree, and the one she threw down the sewer, which was later in the fall of this year)? Poor Schroeder, he must have had quite a bit of money saved up, if he had to keep ordering new pianos, thanks to pain in the neck Lucy.

Not that I condone the piano-smashing, but I can’t help but feel sorry for Lucy.

I didn’t know angst could self-combust a piano.

How can one possibly feel sorry for her here, the way she totally destroys his piano?

Funny, but painfully true (especially in my case!)
