That's not good. That's how I got thrown out. Of the bob duncan experience. Emmett, I don't want to be the loser who's in a band with his dad. A little quieter, guys. I know he's old, But what choice do we have? Still hearing it. I guess you're right. Dad Do you want to do the gig with us? Yes! The experience continues! I'm back! For one gig only. For one gig only! "you are the light of my life. Austin. P. S., not to be used in non-ventilated areas. " Yep, that's my special fella. - Hey. - Hey. Okay.

Please tell me you're not still obsessing about spencer. No no, I'm obsessing about some girl named nicole. Who he's supposedly dating. But I don't think she exists. I just scrolled through all 452 of his friends. And there's not one nicole. You think he made up a fake girlfriend. Just to get a rise out of you? Oh, that is sad and pathetic. Well, in certain situations. It's understandable. What's your fake boyfriend's name? Austin. - Oh teddy. - I panicked! At least he's a real guy. For you, my love! Is that the lute? Oh, I love the lute. Sorry, austin. Now's not a good time. Teddy, go out with me. - No. - Then I will continue to serenade you. With every instrument at my disposal. But you should know.
