Davy joined Micky as the latter was packing groceries into the Monkeemobile.

"And how'd things go with that girl you spotted over by the coffee beans," Micky wondered, winking slyly.

Micky chuckled, shutting the groceries up in the car. "Did anybody ever tell her just how hackneyed that phrase is?"
