SO LET'S JUMP RIGHT INTO THE FUN, HUH?!
OUR FIRST AWARD IS FOR BEST RANKING.
THE AWARD FOR CLEANEST POND GOES TO...
THE PARK WITH THE MOST WELL-BEHAVED CHILDREN IS...
OKAY, HALFWAY DONE, FOLKS. AND FOR MOST UNIFORM LAWN...
BEST BIRTHDAY SPOTS...

[ APPLAUSE ]
LET'S GIVE IT UP TO HARRISON LAKE PARK
FOR MOST FERTILE LAND!
HOW DO THEY DO IT?
[ APPLAUSE ]
[ GROANS ]
WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR FOUR HOURS!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
YOU'RE ACTING LIKE CHILDREN!
I'M UP FOR PARK MANAGER OF THE YEAR.
THIS IS THE BIG LEAGUES.
GENE USUALLY SWEEPS THE AWARDS,
BUT I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT I HAVE A CHANCE THIS YEAR.
I MEAN, AFTER THAT EMBARRASSING FERTILIZER FIASCO
EAST PINES HAD?
[ CHUCKLES ] IT'S IN THE BAG.
WELL, THIS SEEMS LIKE AS GOOD A TIME AS ANY
THAT WE REMEMBER THE FALLEN.
OUR PARK-MANAGER BRETHREN,
NONE OF WHOM HAD WON AN AWARD BUT WILL STILL BE MISSED,
DESPITE THEIR LACK OF EXCELLENCE.
[ SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING ]
[ CROWD SIGHS, APPLAUDS ]
AND NOW A MOMENT OF SILENCE.
I'D LIKE TO THANK WING KINGDOM FOR SPONSORING THIS EVENT!
BEFORE YOU GET YOUR ANGEL WINGS, COME BY AND GET SOME SPICY ONES.
[ CHUCKLES ]
AND NOW THE AWARD WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR...
THE PARK MANAGER OF THE YEAR AWARD!
THE NOMINEES ARE...
Announcer: KIMMY GEHBERT FROM MICRO PARK.
SLICER ERICSON FROM ALLEY WAY PARK.
GENE FROM EAST PINES PARK.
AND BENSON FROM PARK.
WHAT?! THAT'S NOT THE PICTURE I TOLD YOU TO SEND!
BUT DON'T YOU WANT THEM TO KNOW THE REAL YOU, BENSON?
YEAH, IT'S HONEST.
AND THE PARKIE GOES TO...
SHH -- THIS IS IT!
BEN... [ GASPS ]
...JAMIN SMITH! HE'S ANOTHER GUY WHO DIED.
THAT'S FOOD FOR THOUGHT.
ANYWAY, GET UP HERE, GENE! YOU WON!
THIS IS GENE'S NINTH NOMINATION AND NINTH WIN IN THIS CATEGORY.
IT'S HIS 18th WIN TONIGHT.
HEY, I NEEDED ANOTHER BACK SCRATCHER, AM I RIGHT?!
[ LAUGHS ]
I'M RUNNIN' OUT OF ROOM FOR THESE THINGS!
WELL, THANKS, I GUESS.
HERE'S TO ANOTHER 18 WINS!
[ LAUGHS ]
THE BEST OF THE BEST CERTAINLY WON TONIGHT, HUH, FOLKS?
ANOTHER BIG THANKS TO WING KINGDOM,
AND WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT YEAR AT THE ANNUAL PARKIE AWARDS!
OKAY, SO I DIDN'T WIN.
IT'S AN HONOR TO EVEN BE NOMINATED.
[ CHOMPING ]
[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]
18 IN A ROW! I LOVED ALL THE DRESSES.
JUDGED BY A JURY OF MY PEERS.
WITH PEERS LIKE THESE, WHO NEEDS FRIENDS?!
HEY, UH...
WHY DON'T YOU GO GET SOME FRESH AIR?
I'M GONNA GET SOME FRESH AIR!
JOKERS WOULDN'T KNOW A GOOD PARK FROM A HOLE IN THE PARK.
BENSON TOOK THAT PRETTY HARD.
YIKES. I'M EMBARRASSED FOR HIM.
MAN, BENSON'S 10 TIMES THE PARK MANAGER GENE IS.
LOOK, HE DOESN'T EVEN CARE THAT HE WON.
HAH!
THEY GIVE AWARDS FOR ANYTHING THESE DAYS.
I FLOSS TWICE A DAY -- NOMINATE ME FOR THAT!
[ LAUGHTER ] HOT WINGS, SIR?
DEFINITELY!
THERE'S JUST NO JUSTICE IN THE WORLD.
LET'S GRAB BENSON AND GET OUT OF HERE.
HEY, BENSON, HOW ABOUT WE HAVE A GUYS' NIGHT OUT?
HOW'S THAT SOUND?
YEAH, WE COULD DO IT UP!
WE'D JUST NEED SOME WINGS,
SOME SLO-MO EXPLOSIONS, A SWEET RIDE.
THAT STUFF'S FOR WINNERS -- WINNERS LIKE GENE.
HE'S PROBABLY OUT HAVING THE TIME OF HIS LIFE.
WE'LL SEE HOW GOOD A TIME HE HAS
WHEN HE FIGURES OUT THIS IS MISSING!
HUH?WHAT THE? OH, MY!
RIGBY, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?!
WHAT BETTER WAY TO FEEL LIKE A WINNER THAN WITH A REAL AWARD?!
BESIDES, HE DIDN'T EVEN MISS IT.
IT'S THE PRINCIPLE OF THE THING!
WHAT, IS IT BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE YOUR NAME ON IT?
HERE, I'LL FIX IT!
NO! WE HAVE TO CALL GENE NOW!
WE'LL TELL HIM WE HAVE HIS AWARD
AND IT'S ALL A MISUNDERSTANDING. [ Dialing ]
GENE, IT'S BENSON.
CALL ME BACK. IT'S IMPORTANT.
I GOT THE MACHINE.
WELL...
WHILE WE'RE WAITING TO HEAR BACK,
WE COULD HAVE A LITTLE FUN!
OOH!OOH! OOH!OOH!

MAN, GUYS, WHAT A NIGHT!
I REALLY JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.
WELL, [CHUCKLES] I KNOW WHAT I WOULD'VE SAID IF I'D WON.
IT WAS A SHOW-STOPPER SPEECH.
I HAD TO EDIT IT DOWN THREE PARAGRAPHS
I'D WRITTEN ABOUT THIS GUY.
AND YOU WERE IN IT, AND YOU WERE IN IT --
AND EVEN YOU GUYS ARE IN IT.
WHO-O-A!WHO-O-A!
WELL, NOT IN THE ORIGINAL,
BUT I EDITED YOU IN AFTER HOW MUCH FUN WE JUST HAD.
[ BOTH CHUCKLING ]
[ SIGHS ]
TOO BAD I'LL NEVER GET TO SAY IT.
MAYBE IT'S NOT TOO LATE, BRO.
MEGA-COOL OF YOU TO LET US IN LIKE THIS, MAN.
EH, NO PROBLEM.
THE SET'S GETTING TRASHED TOMORROW ANYWAY.
[ DOOR CREAKS ]
All: [ Chanting ] SPEECH, SPEECH, SPEECH, SPEECH!
[ CHUCKLES ] WOW!
I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M FINALLY UP HERE.
SORRY, SORRY. I'LL START.
[ CLEARS THROAT ]
FIVES?
IT'S NOT ME! I JUST TURNED ON THE LIGHTS!
[ SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING ]
HUH? WHAT THE?
[ SCREAMS ]
[ ALL SCREAM ]
[ Australian accent ] HEY, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING, MATE?!
I'M GIVING MY SPEECH?
I'M JUST TRYING TO HAVE MY MOMENT.
YOU'VE GOT PLENTY OF MOMENTS!
YEAH! ISN'T IT ENOUGH THAT YOU'RE STILL ALIVE?!
I NEVER GOT TO GIVE A SPEECH!
I NEVER GOT TO GIVE A SPEECH, EITHER!
JARED, THE ADULTS ARE TALKING HERE.
HEY, I DIED THE SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE!
YOU JUST FORGOT TO CHEW YOUR FOOD!
WELL, VICTORIA JUST FELL OFF A LOG!
WELL, AT LEAST I DIDN'T GET KILLED BY DIRT,
LIKE OLD QUICKSAND OVER HERE! HUH?!
GIVE ME THAT MIKE!
HEY! [ GRUNTS ]
[ FEEDBACK ] OOF!
THAT'S IT!
[ GRUNTS ] [ GASPS ]
YOU GOT TO LEARN FROM YOUR ELDERS!
[ GRUNTS ]
HUH? OOF!
CHILD COMING THROUGH!
Jared: MY CHOCOLATE! [ BOTH PANTING ]
[ ALL GRUNTING ]
[ FEEDBACK ] HEY!
[ GRUNTING ]
LOOK AT YOURSELVES! WHAT ARE WE DOING?!
WE ALL JUST WANT THE SAME THING --
TO BE APPRECIATED.
SO WHY ARE WE FIGHTING?!
WE'VE ALL GIVEN SPEECHES TO OURSELVES --
IN THE SHOWER, IN THE CAR,
SO LET'S GIVE THEM TO EACH OTHER, RIGHT HERE,
RIGHT NOW -- TOGETHER.
[ SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYS ]
UH, OH, WOW, GEEZ!
THIS THING'S HEAVY.
I ACTUALLY -- I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING PREPARED.
AND YOU CAN SHOVE IT! AND YOU CAN SHOVE IT!
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT, COACH GUNDERSON!
AND YOU CAN SHOVE IT! OH, AND YOU CAN --
AND I SAID, "MOM, YOU MAY NOT BELIEVE IN ME,
BUT BELIEVE IN MY PARK!"
[ SOBBING ]
AND ME AND MY MATES WERE IN THE OUTBACK,
DOWN BY THE OPERA HOUSE,
WHEN THIS CROCODILE COMES FLYING OUT OF NOWHERE!
WELL, I GOT THAT CROC IN A HEADLOCK
AND PUNCHED HIM IN THE STOMACH!
THAT'S THE END OF MY STORY.
THANK YOU! BOOMERANG!
[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING ]
LAST, BUT NOT LEAST, BENSON!
All: [ Chanting ] BENSON, BENSON, BENSON, BENSON!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
IT'S A GREAT HONOR TO HAVE RECEIVED THIS AWARD --
[ SENTIMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING ] UH, UH...
THEY SAY THE THIRD TIME'S A CHARM!
[ MUSIC INTENSIFIES ] I SAY IT'S THE SEVENTH!
UH, I'D LIKE TO THANK POPS, SKIPS, MORDECAI,
MUSCLE MAN, HI FIVE GHOST!
[ MUSIC INTENSIFIES ] HUH?
WHO'S DOING THAT?! CUT IT OUT!
AND THE AWARD FOR BREAKING AND ENTERING GOES TO BENSON!
TOO BAD THERE'S NO TROPHY FOR IT.
GOT YOUR MESSAGE!
THOUGHT I'D FIND YOU HERE.
OH, RIGHT.
THIS BELONGS TO YOU.
SORRY TO WORRY YOU.
[ LAUGHS ]
SORRY.
I DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS MISSING.
AIN'T LIFE FUNNY? ANYWAY, THANKS!
OH, AND I HOPE YOU DIDN'T TAKE YOUR PICTURE WITH IT.
'CAUSE THEY SAY YOU'LL NEVER WIN AN AWARD IF YOU DO.
WHAT?
THAT'S PROBABLY JUST AN OLD PARKIES URBAN LEGEND.
I WOULDN'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
[ CHUCKLES ]
[ LAUGHS ] WHOA, THERE.
SEE YOU AT THE NEXT LODGE MEETING!
[ TIRES SCREECH ]

[ SIGHS ]
LET'S JUST GO HOME.

Mordecai: AND THE PARKIE GOES TO...BENSON!
FROM PARK.
COME TO THE STAGE AND CLAIM YOUR PRIZE!
All: [ Chanting ] SPEECH, SPEECH, SPEECH, SPEECH, SPEECH!
HERE YOU GO, BENSON.
YOU DESERVE IT.
THIS IS REALLY THE BEST AWARD I COULD WIN.
I'D LIKE TO THANK ALL OF YOU GUYS.
NOT JUST FOR BEING THE BEST STAFF I'VE WORKED WITH,
BUT ALSO BEING THE BEST FRIENDS I COULD ASK FOR.
BECAUSE OF YOU, EVERY DAY I COME INTO WORK,
I FEEL LIKE A TRUE WINNER.
THANK YOU.
NOW, THAT'S WHAT I CALL LIQUID ASSETS.
[ LAUGHS ]
MAELLARD, OLD BOY,
YOUR BRUNCH IS THE EVENT OF THE SEASON.
EH, IT'S OKAY, BUT NO BRUNCH WOULD BE COMPLETE
WITHOUT A LITTLE DESSERT --
THE MOST EXPENSIVE SHEET CAKE IN THE WORLD!
OOH! -[ CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYS ]
WHOO-HOO!
IF YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW MUCH IT COSTS,
TAKE A LOOK AT THE FROSTING.
[ GUESTS GUFFAW ]
[ ENGINE PUTTERS ]
[ GASP ] -[ GLASS SHATTERS ]
[ SNORING ]
RIGBY!
[ GASPING ]
AAH! AAH!
ARRH!
WHAT? I'LL BUY YOU A NEW CAKE.
YOU REALLY SCREWED UP THIS TIME!
HOLD ON, NOW, BENSON.
YOU SHARE AS MUCH BLAME FOR THIS AS HE DOES.
YOU ARE HIS MANAGER.
IT'S TRUE, BENSON. I TOLD YOU I NEEDED A NAP.
YOU WERE TIRED BECAUSE YOU WERE
UP ALL NIGHT, PLAYING VIDEO GAMES!
ENOUGH!
RIGBY'S A SCREW-UP, BUT,
DISCIPLINE STARTS AT THE TOP.
SO HERE'S WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN --
ONE OF YOU IS GONNA WRITE
A LETTER OF RESIGNATION BY 5:00.
NO ONE LEAVES THIS OFFICE UNTIL IT'S DONE
AND IF YOU CAN'T WORK IT OUT, YOU'RE BOTH FIRED!
[ SLAM ]
THIS IS THE LAST THING I NEEDED TODAY.
FIRST, MY CAR BREAKS DOWN AND I HAVE TO GET A RIDE FROM MY DAD.
AND NOW THIS.
ALL RIGHT, RIGBY, STOP PLAYING AROUND AND WRITE THAT LETTER.
WHY SHOULD I WRITE IT? DIDN'T YOU HEAR?
MAELLARD SAID IT WAS YOUR FAULT,
'CAUSE YOU MISMANAGED ME.
COME ON, RIGBY. WE BOTH KNOW THIS IS YOUR FAULT.
NOT NOW, BENSON. I'M READING UP
ON MY MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES.
THERE'S SOME GOOD STUFF IN HERE.
HEY! I WAS READING THAT!
WHY CAN'T YOU TAKE ANYTHING SERIOUSLY?
WHY ARE YOU SO UPTIGHT?!
AAH! AAH!
WHAT'S GOING ON IN HERE?! -RIGBY, SIR --
BENSON'S BEING A -- -GIVE ME THAT!
THIS ISN'T PARTY TIME.
THIS IS WRITE-A-LETTER- TO-QUIT TIME
AND, IF I HAVE TO COME BACK IN HERE, I'M BUSTING HEADS.
I'M NOT WRITIN' THAT LETTER.
**
[ CREAK ]
RIGBY, DON'T YOU MAKE ME COME OUT THERE!
UGH!
RIGBY!
IF MAELLARD CATCHES US OUT OF THE ROOM, WE'RE DEAD.
WELL, THEN, GO BACK, SO YOU DON'T GET CAUGHT.
THAT'S IT, RIGBY. YOU MARCH RIGHT BACK --
[ DOOR CREAKS ] -OH, SHOOT.
RIGBY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?
YOU CAN COME OUT NOW, BENSON.
OH, HEY, BENSON. -HMM.
I THOUGHT MAELLARD WAS GONNA FIRE YOU.
PSSH! MAELLARD'S JUST BLUFFING.
BUT, PAPá, YOU CAN'T FIRE BOTH OF THEM!
AAH! Shh!
We got to get outta here.
WHICH WAY IS YOUR OFFICE?
UH...DOWN THERE!
AH! SO ANGRY AT THOSE TWO.
I THINK I'LL JUST STARE AT MY BELOVED PARK
FOR A FEW LONG MINUTES.
NAH, ON SECOND THOUGHT, I BETTER CHECK IN ON THEM.
[ GASP, PANTING ]
OH, YEAH!
AH! AAH!
RIGBY, GIVE ME A HAND.
[ CREAK ]
RIGBY! AH.
[ GRUNTING ] -[ POUNDING ON DOOR ]
RIGBY! WHAT'S THE MEANING OF THIS?
UH, THE DOOR WAS STUCK. I WAS TRYING TO HELP.
YOU KNOW, OLD HOUSE.
BENSON?
UH, YEAH, IT DOES THAT SOMETIMES.
THE DOOR...STICKS.
WHAT AM I FEELING RIGHT NOW?!
WHAT IS THIS CALLED?!
IT'S CALLED BEING ALIVE.
OH. WELL, THANKS FOR HELPING ME.
NO PROBLEM.
[ TICKING ]
OHH, WHAT AM I GONNA DO?
THIS JOB IS MY LIFE.
OKAY, TELL YOU WHAT -- IF YOU WRITE THE LETTER,
I'LL WRITE YOU A STELLAR LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION
FOR YOUR NEXT JOB.
YEAH, BENSON, I'LL THINK ABOUT IT,
BUT I CAN'T THINK ON AN EMPTY STOMACH.
YOU'RE NOT GONNA EAT THOSE WINGS COLD, ARE YOU?
GEEZ, BENSON, YOU'RE EVEN UPTIGHT
ABOUT HOW TO EAT HOT WINGS.
YOU'LL DO A LOT BETTER AT YOUR NEXT JOB,
IF YOU JUST LOOSEN UP A BIT.
GIVE ME THAT!
HEY!
BENSON, WAIT!
WHERE ARE WE GOING?
THE KITCHEN, RIGBY.
WE'RE GONNA COOK THESE WINGS.
BUT I'M FINE WITH EATING THEM COLD.
WE'RE BETTER THAN THAT.
I'M NOT.
Looks like the coast is clear.
OOF!
WE'RE JUST GONNA REHEAT 'EM AND THEN GO, RIGHT?
YEAH. I'LL LOOK OUT FOR MAELLARD.
NOW, WHERE'S THE PAPRIKA?
ARE YOU -- PAPRIKA? ARE YOU KIDDING?
I THOUGHT WE WERE JUST GONNA REHEAT 'EM AND GO!
Uh, that's what I'm doing!
The Benson way.

BUT THE SONG SAYS IT'S GOT TO COOK
FOR 90 SECONDS, AND NOT ONE SECOND LESS!
I'M BAILING!
OUTTA MY WAY! OOF! YICH!
COME ON. COME ON.
BENSON, DON'T BE STUPID.
MY SHIRT'S STILL GOT STAINS ON IT.
DUHUR!
AHH...
CLUB SODA WILL GET THAT RIGHT OUT.
NOW, WHERE DID I PUT IT?
HMM...
AH, IT'S PROBABLY IN THE PANTRY.
POPS, WHEN'S THE LAST TIME THIS KITCHEN WAS REMODELED?
AAH-AH-AH!
HUH?
I MEAN, AAH, AAH, AAH-HT SEVEN.

NO WONDER I LIKE IT SO MUCH.
CLAS-SIC!

DID YOU SAY SOMETHING?
OH, A-HA HA HA!
JUST DOING CALISTHENICS, FATHER.
AHA! GETTING STRONG, EH?
THINK YOU CAN TAKE ON YOUR OLD MAN?
PFFT! PFFT! PFFT! PFFT!
[sobbing] NO-O-O-O!

NEVER CHALLENGE ME AGAIN.

DUDE, THAT WAS AWESOME!
WELL...?
YOU'RE RIGHT.
THESE ARE WAY BETTER!
TOLD YA.
* LUNCH CLUB
[ UP-TEMPO ELECTRONIC MUSIC PLAYS ]
[ MID-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS ]
BENSON, WHAT ARE YOU ANXIOUS ABOUT?
[chuckling] HO-HO.
AWKWARD SILENCES, AIRPLANE TOILETS,
SILVERFISH, DO I HAVE ANY LIBRARY BOOKS OUT?
WHAT IF THEY STOP MAKING THAT GUM I LIKE?
THIS RECURRING NIGHTMARE
WHERE I'M FLAILING IN A FUTURELESS VOID.
MY FATHER'S THERE.
HE'S LAUGHING AT ME.
WOW, YOU'RE PRETTY MESSED UP.
MY DAD, HE WAS ALWAYS LIKE,
"YOUR BROTHER DON IS SO AMAZING.
JUST GO BACK TO BEING A SCREW-UP, RIGBY."
I DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND HALF THE REASONS
I DO THE THINGS I DO.
I'M EXPECTED TO BE A CLOWN, SO I'M A CLOWN.
BUT CLOWNS CRY, TOO, MAN.
CLOWNS CRY, TOO.
MY OLD MAN CRITICIZED ME FOR BEING IN THAT BAND.
"WAKE UP!
YOU DON'T HAVE ANY TALENT!
GET A REAL JOB!"
"DRUMMING'S MY LIFE, DAD!
HAIR TO THE THRONE FOREVAH!"
AFTER SIX MONTHS,
THEY REPLACED ME WITH A DRUM MACHINE.
HE WAS RIGHT.
THEN I STARTED WORKING HERE,
WHERE I'LL PROBABLY BE UNTIL I DIE.
"HERE LIES SOME UPTIGHT PARK MANAGER."
DON'T SAY THAT.
YOU'RE MORE THAN THAT!
[chuckle] THANKS, MAN.
AND YOU'RE MORE THAN JUST
A GOOF THAT MESSES THINGS UP.
IT'S ALMOST 5:00.
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?
I'LL DO IT. FOR ONCE,
I'LL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY ACTIONS.
NO, I'LL BE FIRED.
FOR ONCE, I'LL HAVE A SPINE AND CHANGE MY LIFE.
[ TICKING ]
WHERE ARE THEY?!
Benson: "DEAR MR. MAELLARD, WE ACCEPT THAT WE MESSED UP.
BUT YOU'RE CRAZY TO MAKE ONE OF US
WRITE A RESIGNATION LETTER.
YOU SEE US AS YOU WANT TO SEE US.
IN THE SIMPLEST TERMS,
YOU SEE US AS AN ANGRY, UPTIGHT BOSS..."
-"AN IRRESPONSIBLE SLACKER."
"A GUY WHO HAS NO FUN."
-"A GUY WHO HAS TOO MUCH FUN."
[ HONK-HONK ]
"A GUY WHO'S ESTRANGED FROM HIS FATHER."
DAD, WE NEVER TALK.
"SO, IF ONE OF US RESIGNS FROM YOUR PRECIOUS PARK,
WE BOTH RESIGN.
DOES THAT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION?
SINCERELY, THE LUNCH CLUB.
P.S. SHOVE IT, YOU DECREPIT OLD FART."
AH, IT'S NO USE.
I CAN'T READ THIS AT ALL.
POPS! READ THIS FOR ME.
I CAN'T FIND MY GLASSES.
UM, IT SAYS,
"WE LOVE THE PARK AND DON'T WANT TO BE FIRED.
WE'RE SORRY. LOVE, BENSON AND RIGBY.
P.S." AH-HUVVV!
NICE THINGS!
[ LAUGHS NERVOUSLY ]
WELL, WHAT A LOVELY LETTER!
ESPECIALLY THE NICE THINGS THEY SAID AT THE END.
I FORGIVE THEM.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING.
THOSE TWO ROUND OUT THE WHOLE DYNAMIC HERE.
WHERE WOULD WE BE WITHOUT A BENSON OR A RIGBY?
HEH HEH. WHERE, INDEED? HEH HEH.
HA!
