bulldozer, excavator,

That's my favorite. Mine, too!
Steve, your new friend Barry is a delight.
Where have you been hiding him? He's here all the time.
No, no, no, you're thinking of that other one --
Whatsisname. Fatman Joe.
Did I miss one of Barry's stories?
Yes.
Could we rewind the tape a bit
for ol' Francine?
It's, uh, a little rude to ask someone
to repeat themselves just because you left the room.
I left the room to get cashew milk ice cream
because someone can't handle dairy.
It's me, Barry. I can't handle natural milks.
I'm the asshole she's talking about.
Oh. On an unrelated point, Francine,
I wanted to mention the bathroom faucet was dripping earlier.
Is there a reason you never, ever turn
the handle all the way off?
I-I sincerely want to help you figure this out.
You've had a strand of Carolina-style
pulled pork stuck in your teeth since Wednesday.
Maybe figure that out?
-Uh-oh. -What, Barry? What's wrong?
The way you guys are sniping at each other.
It's not good. This?
Oh, this is normal.
It's married-people stuff. Isn't it?
No. It's not.
You know, forget it. It's not my place.
Barry, it's absolutely your place.
You've got a real problem.
And it will destroy your marriage
if you don't do something about it.

At Rekindlings, we're sorry you're not in love anymore,

And now our last hope is a balloon shaped like my nutsack.
You wish your nutsack was as red as this.
Aah, the lovers I'm takin' up in me sweet balloo.
Come aboard. I'll give you the rundown.
In a balloo, you got three dangers to watch for.
One, you got to mind the wind.
Snag the jet stream,
and you'll shoot out over the sea fast as a cheetah bird.
Two, the balloo poppin'.
It's bad news all around and it happens a lot.
And the third thing?
Condors -- the sharks of the skies.
There are condor attacks all over these airs.
