A specific girl

KEVIN: Anth, I found my thing. I want to adopt one of these African kids.
ANTHONY: OK. A Madonna/Brangelina thing. No problem. I'll set up a meeting.

KEVIN: Yeah, and I want to adopt a specific girl. I got the commercial freezeframed on the TiVo.
ANTHONY: Well, that's sweet, Kevin. She have a cute little face?

KEVIN: Yeah, and an amazing rack.

KEVIN: Anth? Hello? ... It says the call ended.
PETER: Oh MAN, see? "ATT FAIL", dude! Twitter that shit.

What makes you like a song?

TESTER: Before we begin the product testing, let me ask: what makes you like a song?
GREG: Like, you know, if it was on Gossip Girl.

TESTER: OK, well... let's say you hear a really good song that hasn't been on Gossip Girl, and-
GREG: But... if it's really good, it WOULD be on Gossip Girl.

TESTER: OK, but this one isn't.
GREG: But... why?

TESTER: Wait, was Gossip Girl canceled?! Is there somewhere I can check Twitter here?!
GREG: OK, let's... let's move on...

Raspberry jam details

GREG: What's the name of this song playing right now?
BRETT: This is "Lisztomania" by Phoenix.

GREG: And would you call the raspberry jam on this muffin I'm eating, like, a blood red or a maroon red?
BRETT: Maroon I guess.

A pause.

BRETT: You Twitter too much.

Why the fans showed up

TONY KING THE AGENT: Gordon, you should know-
GORDON CRANWICK: That was great to do a SOLO SET! My fans really SHOWED UP, too!

TONY KING THE AGENT: Yeah, Gordon, but-
GORDON CRANWICK: People know I'm not just Kevin Edo's backing band! They RESPECT ME!
TONY KING THE AGENT: GORDON!

TONY KING THE AGENT: I... had to promise Kevin would do an autograph line to get fans to show up.
KEVIN EDO: Hello Gordon.

TONY KING THE AGENT: I HAD to, man! If I send tweets without Kevin's name, PEOPLE UNSUBSCRIBE!
KEVIN EDO: Maybe I'll play some of my solo stuff first to sorta CLEANSE THEIR PALETTES...

Teaching a rock star to Twitter

TONY THE AGENT: So you just text or IM your updates to your Twitter account, and fans follow it so they can experience your day-to-day life.

TONY THE AGENT: I've been running it, but I think you should take it over now.
TONY THE AGENT: Seems easy enough... Oh SHIT. This kid... I KNOW this kid.

TONY THE AGENT: Christ, how'm I supposed to tell this kid I screwed his mom backstage at our show in Billings?

TONY THE AGENT: Well, you use the @ symbol, and then his username...
TONY THE AGENT: Oh, OK. This IS easy...
