Fandom: Jeeves & Wooster
Rating: Gen
Notes: Jeeves is defeated by a pun.
“Okay, here we go, Jeeves: one fellow points to the very large slimy creature slung ‘bout his shoulder and says to another fellow, ‘Here’s my newt. His name is Tiny.’ And the other fellow asks, ‘Why’s he called Tiny?’ And the first fellow answers, ‘Because he’s my newt.’”
Jeeves did not blink. “I surrender, sir.”
“Don’t despair, Jeeves, many a strong man has been felled by a sharp pun.”
“I’m gratified to hear it, sir. Here is the garment we were discussing, the…puce…waistcoat. Enjoy your luncheon with Mister Fink-Nottle.”
“By Jove, Gussie’s going to love the joke and the raiment!”
