"Don't worry! I won't let your stuff get messed up on my watch."

But...

Jeff could already foresee the moment Karen found out Everett had "ditched" Dorothy, he'd be caught in the middle, squished like a sandwich!

She'd spend the day ripping into him, finding fault in everything about him!

Just like himself.

Surrounded by women, yet he ended up falling for Karen, who wasn't particularly outstanding in any way.
