"AampCo is tight

"because we're listening

to the Great Winged Salmon,

"who's actually a 10-year-old boy

with a $6,000 blanket,

"who's hopped up on Red Bull!"

Listen to me, Johnny.

This is an opportunity of a lifetime.

And they don't just give

those things away, Whitefeather!

- Get him.

- Back off, you little freak!

Get some sleep!

Hey, Trish, it's me!

And with tonight,

and singing tomorrow...

Hey, Liv, l'm sorry about

what happened at the sleepover.
