Oooh, that was cold! I always figured Karen refused to leave with Jim, not that he just went off without her. Still, I like that you have him being so straightforward and honest.

Author's Response: I kept thinking about how he broke up with Katie during the Booze Cruise. He'd apparently been dating her a long time and he just up and dropped her. He didn't love Karen or date her longer than he had Katie, so I figured it might be his style - like a band-aid, harsh and quick.
