Jon: Liz, remember when we first met?
Jon: Remember the first thing you said to me?
Liz: Call me "repulsed"
Jon: Okay, the second thing

The author writes:

I've seen various recollections as to the first thing Liz said to Jon. "Nice teddy bear tie"? "Who's next, please?"? "It's short for lizard"? I say you're all wrong! Had to dig real deep for this dirt, at THAT time she wasn't even a veterinarian and was already dating someone else, and she hadn't even taken that job at Irma's diner yet! (Hey, she had to work through vet school somehow...)

(For the record, the second thing? "Surprise" on 1976-09-30, while with the guy she was dating at the time...)
