Oh, you think you are big enough to make me, you little wimp? Come on. Come over here and make me. I dare you. You little fruitcake. You little fruitcake. I said you are a fruitcake.
In the Diet, it looks like one of those folks in the picture would have fed Fortney some fruitcake, in response to such a challenge.

The woman in white, seated in the lower right -- she remains composed,"The ASS out of the FACE, ass out of face, please, BEE-OTCH!" That right arm is a defensive ninja maneuver.
The smiling male face, farthest right in the pic, "Me ruv the fighting of the cat!"
The guy in front of her, the one with half-scowl half-smile, her arm is reaching across his shoulder, "Oh, yeah! When she comes across, all her slit-skirt are belong to me!"
