So your bike chain broke? Yeah it broke and look, look at me, and I locked myself out.
And look at that, so.
I'm telling you it's totally because Mercury's in retrograde.
Yeah.
Um, what is that, like? What does that actually mean? It's just like when Mercury goes backwards in the sky and then everything goes wrong.
Yeah, it's true.

I was just wondering what the chances were of you guys catching him? Hard to say, ma'am.
Usually in cases like these, you just have to ride it out until, you know- Mercury is out of retrograde.
Yeah! You take care, ma'am.

Hey, do you know if this cake is from Stanley's 'cause they did my nephew's bris.
Mmm.
Cake was a little bit dry, but it was huge.
I mean, we couldn't even finish the tip.
The nice thing was everyone went home with a little bit of dick, which I think is a nice way to end a party, don't you? I just gotta sit down.
Okay just Super villains.
Hi.
It's been one week since we abolished the Internet and threw the world into absolute chaos.
Ha-ha-ha.
Just want to do a group check-in, you know, see how we're all doing, how everyone's feeling.
Well, I don't know about everybody else, but I'm feeling decidedly less evil.
I'm sleeping better.
I'm more present in all my relationships.
I gotta say I have a lot less hate in my heart.
I really, really do.
Like for ages there I just thought, Oh my god, I want to blow up the Maldives.
But actually I was like really envious of everyone's vacation pics on Instagram.
I miss controlling the media and rigging elections, but I must say, the fair and balanced news coverage in the daily papers, very nice.
Also, no comment section, very good.
Damn! So have we accidentally done a good thing by getting rid of the Internet? Well, I don't know about that.
I mean, we knocked all the planes out of the sky.
I mean, that's fairly evil.
There was that, that was evil.
But, the CO2 emissions went down considerably in the world.
The earth actually has about ten more years to live.
So we call it a good thing? How about this one? Netflix, gone.
People have to now go to live theatre.
That's pretty bad.
Except, there's a big shared experience happening.
So there's a lot of mutual understanding and connection among humans.
Damn! Well not to change subject but, um, Beth, I must be asking you, where did you get this hat? I'm loving it! Do you like this little bad boy! I do.
Online, bought it online.
Ah! That's it there'll be no more online shopping.
That's right.
Everyone will be forced to go to the mall.
The mall is the worst.
High five, yeah boss.
High five.
Don't leave me hanging.
Oh, I won't leave you hanging.
No don't! Ahhhhh! Oh dear! Ah, there we go.
Oh that looks darling.
Oh, she didn't really bring much to the the group, did she? Um, you know, things have been pretty stressful lately and I've been drinking more than I usually do.
I mean, I don't think I have a problem or anything like that.
Um, but I just was a bit worried.
And I wondered in your professional opinion, if it falls within the normal range of, you know, drinks per week? As a bottle picker.
Yeah, you're fine.
Like I would say statistically average for the neighbourhood.
Oh, phew! Now, number 24 down the street, I pay my rent from that bin.
So, um, are we done here? Do you mind? Sorry, um, thank you for your trouble.
Thank you.
Relieved to be normal.
Well, I wouldn't go that far.
You have a below average taste in wine.
Excuse me? This box just says white.
Um Like I'm, I'm sad for you.
Yeah.
Here you go, I don't need it because that does not give me a cent.
Some beer cans and bottles in there.
Oh yeah, lots.
Yeah, those are my husband's.
- Are you married? - I am not.
Okay.
Hey Monica! Oh my god, what happened to your eye? Oh, I woke up like this.
I think I burst a blood vessel.
Oh my god, you have pink eye? No, it's not pink eye.
You have pink eye? - I'm sure it's not pink eye.
- Oh.
You must've gotten poo in your eye.
Ah, yeah.
I didn't get poo in my eye.
It's not pink eye.
That's how you get pink eye, poo in your eye.
Okay, it's not pink eye.
I'm fine, guys.
Just chill out.
It's okay.
It's just Yeah, no I'm not going to chill out just because you got random fecal matter in your eye, doesn't mean the rest of us want it, thank you.
Yeah, okay, everyone, Monica got poo in her eye.
We don't really know how, but it's really important that nobody go near her, nobody touch her.
Maybe don't even talk to her in case she spits while you're talking and it goes into your eye and you get poo in your eye.
Okay, just be safe.
Okay, okay, guys, come here.
Look, if you really, really must know what happened, Alan and I were having some really intense sex last night and I think that's how this happened, okay.
You were having poo sex? I was not having poo sex! I was having just regular plain old vanilla sex with a really intense orgasm with lots of screaming.
And, ah, poof I think it burst a blood vessel, okay! Okay.
- Okay.
- All right.
You orgasmed so hard that poo came out? - That must be it, mhm.
- Is that it? What? It's vintage.
Look, life isn't always fair.
You're going have to do some things that aren't fun.
And uh, you know what? Them's the breaks, kid.
And them's the gas and them's the steering wheel.
Can't Dad teach me how to drive? - Hey, I'm not done yet.
- Okay.
Uh, them's the glove compartment.
Them's the flicker.
Them's the leather interior.
Uh, them's the coffee cup holder.
Okay, Laney.
You are a smart, talented, kind person.
Dating is hard.
Online dating is brutal.
He is not what you expected.
He blinks a lot.
He blinks a terrifying amount.
We're going to focus on dating, okay? Finding that special someone.
'Cause that's what the magazines say.
You didn't take all those quizzes for nothing, did ya? Okay.
Get out there.
Go! Okay! Laney, listen, listen, focus.
There's nothing wrong with dating a professional clown.
I'm okay.
Yeah, yes he looks like your dad.
Guess what? Your dad's a good guy.
Your dad's hot.
Some people say, "Oh my god, Laney, "I can't believe how hot your dad is.
" And you love your dad.
That's, that's not.
Blush is going to make this better.
♪ Blush is going to make this all better.
♪ Don't be afraid.
♪ Don't be afraid.
♪ Laney, don't be afraid because he's not afraid to tell you that he lives with his mother and he once had a thing with his dog.
Yeah.
Now you got this, you got this, ♪ you got this going on now.
♪ He has halitosis but you don't need no bra.
♪ Boop! Ladies! You, you did good.
You done good kid, but you're out.
Now listen to me, you are just gonna apply the rest of this beard.
And then he's just going to think you're some nice guy with a nice beard.
You're going to slip out the back.
You going to get, get to go home now.
You tried.
Bad date? It-it was so bad.
It was really bad.
I can help.
- What? - Come on.
Just leave it.
You're like a fairy.
A fairy of crappy dates.
Don't fart though 'cause I could throw up on your back.
Wouldn't be the first time.
- Okay, here we go.
- Okay.
Oh my god.
He ate my meatballs.
Hey, remember that song, "Tonight I celebrate my love for you"? Tonight I celebrate my ♪ Oh, yeah, yeah.
I remember.
Who sang that? Oh, ah, huh, no idea.
Huh.
Oh well.
Goodnight.
Goodnight.
Peabo Bryson.
Babe Ugh.
Well now I'm awake.
Shit.
Ah.
The new girl's name is Debbie and I called her Liz all afternoon.
Oh god.
It's 2:36 right now.
Okay, that's fine, that's fine.
I'll get four hours.
I can, um, I'll get by on four hours.
Do I have to pee or don't I have to pee? Who names their baby Peabo? Okay, I'm going to lie here and I'm going to reabsorb it.
Oh my god brain! She hates me.
Liz hates me.
Stop thinking about Peabo Bryson.
Everyone hates me.
Ah! Should I apologize? Peabo Bryson.
She looks like a Liz, not a Debbie.
This is not her! Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo, Peabo.
There is only one way I'm going to fall asleep.
Take twenty slow deep breaths.
Didn't even spill a drop, Bonnie.
Let's dance.
Dear Debbie, it's not my fault that you look like a Liz.
No one ever needs to know this.
Peabo Bryson! Fuck.
Fuck.
