Well, isn't a boon an unexpected bonus? Ah! Looking it up: 1.) a benefit bestowed, especially in response to a request. 2.) a timely blessing or benefit. I'd say that fits this context and OH! *lol* This dictionary of mine: American Heritage Dictionary of The English Language, 3rd edition, uses this for it's illustrative sentence: "A spanking breeze is a boon to sailors." :)

"Well, we're always on the lookout for enormous boons."
I love Stephen's deilvery of this line. And, of course, the line itself.

I love the fact that they are both quite giggly through this sketch, like at around 1.39 and 2.17. So cute!
