For a moment while writing I considered doing that, but then I remembered this was a moment that Doug was taking very seriously.
Besides, the classic comedy movie moments will come later in the chapter:
More directly, I helped Usagi relax by taking her out that night
to see "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" (in English but with
Japanese subtitles) which was playing at the Ebisu Garden, an
art house cinema I'd come across a few weeks earlier. (Luna
couldn't join us; she was working that evening at the arcade.)
I'm not sure Usagi understood all the jokes, she hid her eyes
after the first blood started spurting during the Black Knight
scene, and I *know* the Castle Anthrax sequence embarrassed her,
but she laughed herself silly at most everything else.
I know *I* was amused by her giggly attempts to say "Bring out
yer dead!" and "African or European?" in a bizarre British-
Japanese accent all the way home.
