the two tortoises were on vacation, and they were out of lettuce.
this caused them to snipe at each other. first, it was about little things, like whether they truly loved each other. but eventually, it turned to more important issues, like who ate the last bite of lettuce.

it was then that they knew they truly loved each other.
