| 0:00.0 | Tom versus the JLA number 237 or uh-oh, the parents are home. |
| 0:07.2 | Welcome back for Justice League of America, number 237, April 1985 issue entitled, |
| 0:12.5 | Lest Ald, Acquaintance, Be Forgot, written by Jay Conway with art by Chuck Patton, |
| 0:18.6 | inked by Mike Macklin, Beno the letter of Gene D'Angelo Colors, Alan Goldie editor, featuring a cover by Chuck Patton and Mike Macklin. |
| 0:25.1 | If this issue's title seems familiar, that's because issue number 209 was entitled, |
| 0:30.9 | Let Old Acquaintances Be Forgot. |
| 0:32.7 | This one is entitled, Lest Ald Acquaintance Be Forgot. |
| 0:35.8 | Don't get them confused, people. We open up in the hidden |
| 0:39.2 | headquarters of the New Justice League in Detroit, where Vixen walks in the monitor room to find a |
| 0:44.6 | scarcely intense Aquaman staring at a screen that is probably blank. Turns out Aquaman hasn't |

| 1:20.6 | and a bit of you in me. Vixen kind of calls out Aquaman the fact that he is an idiot for not trying |
| 1:26.6 | to find his wife. She left him and he just kind of said, oh, well, she left me, it's over. He didn't go looking for it. Aquaman always go looking for it. Get a boombox, wait outside her window, do something. He needs a little bit of Lloyd Dobler in him. He doesn't have any of that. And Vixen calls him out on this pretty much, telling him that it was a cry for help and that he needs to go find her. |
| 1:48.4 | But he can't because of his inability to do multiple things. |
| 1:51.6 | He needs to be with the league. |
| 1:52.8 | He says constantly. |
| 1:54.1 | He's committed all the time to it, which apparently means he can't do anything else. |
