   Summary

   The comedy show had been Maverick's suggestion, when he'd heard Fritz wondering out loud why they never found anything better to do in the evenings than hang out in the same bar. Some comedian he's seen before, or something, and Jake hadn't bothered looking into it, but Halo said she'd found some clips of the guy on YouTube and he seemed pretty funny. Jake's not really concerned about the comedy; he just likes the change of pace.

   So, sure: twelve fighter pilots walk into a comedy club. Jake's still figuring out the punchline.

   or; Jake can't believe that he's attracted to this guy: mullet, mustache, microphone. But you know what? At least he's funny.
