Torchy thinks: Maybe I could play a gangster's moll since apparently smoking is still seen as wholesome and American.
Of all the layoffs, Torchy Todd and her gal pal, Tess Parker, were hit the hardest.
Just you, me, in a vat of lime jello, pulling hair, calling each other names …
Shameless vixen! Trollop!

Every day is a good day to punch a Nazi! I mean MAGA! I mean the Comics Code Authority! (I can never remember who is who)
But Tess! I mean Betty! I mean Veronica! (I can never remember who is who) which ever one you are, I love you!
Tess' boyfriend, Ed, now works as a Peter Lorre impersonator.
Let's do what we always do, lay around half-naked while men make terrible jokes at our expense.
Why do men choose to marry a plain Jane woman over a pretty woman?
Torchy, we're unemployed … And no one is hiring scantily-clad wastrels these days.
