    Natty Bumpercar: I know it's a terrible way to start a show, but I just get so lonely around here sometimes. The Sox isn't even here, and I'm just at the desk doing this show, and I'm all by myself, and… Whoop. Who's that? Hello? Who's that?

    Mott the Sheep: Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Yeah. Uh-huh.

They were kind of confused, because… Okay. So, Mott's whole thing was that he was my… I guess, like, behind the scenes, he was my writer. He was my head writer. And, yeah, he wrote all the jokes. I actually didn't… I mean, I didn't do any writing. And then… You know…
