Adam: I mean it’s a complete disaster, Brian.
Brian: Why did you bring her, if she has such a big head?
Adam: That’s my whole point. I didn’t know she had a big head.
Brian: Adam, come on her head is huge. It’s the first thing you notice.
Adam: She was sitting down when I first met her. I thought she was tall. If she were taller her head would actually be in proportion.
Brian: That makes absolutely no sense.
Adam: That’s what I thought. You know, so I asked her out, then when she stood up, she was really short with this abnormally large head.
Brian: She’s Mr. Potato Head.
Adam: Yep, Mr. Potato Head. Thank god you’re here. This is the worst night ever. I hate New Year’s Eve. All this expectation, all this pressure to have fun. And same with Halloween, what’s fun about that? (Brian spots Marjorie in the crowd and then Adam sees her) Hey Jimmy. Wow, who is she?
Brian: I don’t know but I’m going to go talk to her.
Adam: Woh, woh, woh, what about me? You can’t leave me here with Mr. Potato Head.
Brian: Sure I can.
Adam: Do I have to kiss her?
Brian: It is New Year’s.
Adam: But she has really small lips.
Brian: You know maybe you could switch them out for the bigger ones like the real Mr. Potato Head.
