Recap Song: We’ll try to keep it funny before we go. The Monkey Man attacked the kids today. How come nobody wants to go to camp anymore? James went to Walmart twice. He went to a spinning class. It’s a terrible thing to be so out of shape. There ain’t nothing funny about this recap song today.

Memorable Moments:

  • “Just go and lift a bulldozer with your legs.”
  • “We’re not really that funny; we just know how to spin it.”
  • “You can’t force creativity. You can’t force GENIUS.”
