Smart Bitches is being so good to us lately:
The Collected Work of Jane Austen, Ultra-Condensed by Christina Carlson and Peter da Silva

Male Lead: I secretly love Female Lead. She must never know.

Cassie Edwards and the ferrets made Wait Wait Don't Tell Me today! The guesser got it wrong.

"No I won't!"
"well, ya did."
(not mine - saw it in Cassie Edwards' to-use list)
