Jennifer is getting dressed for her first meeting with her new boss. After trying several different outfits, she finally finds one that she feels is appropriate. As Jen tries to rush out the door, she is stopped by her cook and butler, who want to tender their resignations. They feel that working for her may be too dangerous, if the apartment gets attacked again like it was by the fake Toad Men. Jen tries to talk them out of it, but they insist. "But...but...you can't leave yet! I'm not scheduled to get my robot butler until at least the ninth issue!" Flashback to three months ago...an attractive young woman named Taryn O'Connell is waiting at a truck stop to meet up with some mystery man. Taryn wonders when he is going to show up--she has spent a lot of time tracking him down. Suddenly, a huge rig drives up. Taryn realizes it must be him, and she starts to get nervous. The man gets out of the truck, and with the bright lights behind him, all that can be seen is a monstrous silhouette of what looks to be a man-shaped giant boar! "Road word is you're lookin' f'r me..." Back in the present, Jennifer arrives for her interview. Louise Mason greets her at the front desk, and tells Jen to call her "Wheezi". She tells Jen that she is very glad that she decided to come in for the interview. "I have...my own reasons for wanting you to take this job! I mean, I know I'll only be a supporting character...but that beats the alternative!" Jen is confused, but Wheezi rushes her in to meet D.A. Towers. Jen takes one look at the attractive blonde man, and she faints. When she comes to, Jen blushes and says she shouldn't have skipped breakfast this morning. Towers tells Jen to go home and get some rest--they can have the meeting when she is feeling better. He asks Wheezi to make sure that Jen gets home safely. Wheezi leads Jen out and says that they'll call her a cab. As they walk out, Jen comments on how embarrassed she is, but she didn't expect her new love interest to be introduced...
