00:20:07,081 --> 00:20:08,642
She made it here for the kids.

516
00:20:08,666 --> 00:20:11,019
She showed up just like I
said she would. Mm-hmm.

517
00:20:11,043 --> 00:20:13,188
I still say this ends up
with you at the bottom

518
00:20:13,212 --> 00:20:16,441
of a pyramid scheme,
but, hey, that was fun.

519
00:20:16,465 --> 00:20:18,777
Yeah. Yeah! I enjoyed it.

520
00:20:18,801 --> 00:20:20,278
Great job.

521
00:20:20,302 --> 00:20:22,304
Better than Morehouse.

522
00:20:24,390 --> 00:20:26,618
It was a really good show.
Very good.

523
00:20:26,642 --> 00:20:28,704
Thank you. Thank
you so much. Yeah.

524
00:20:28,728 --> 00:20:32,082
Now I'm starving.
Do you wanna go get some pizza?

525
00:20:32,106 --> 00:20:34,835
Uh, yeah, uh, pizza
sounds delicious. Okay.

526
00:20:34,859 --> 00:20:37,003
Um, what was your favorite part
of the show?

527
00:20:37,027 --> 00:20:39,506
Oh, I would say the "five, six,
seven, eight" portion

528
00:20:39,530 --> 00:20:41,010
where everybody got
really structured.

530
