TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Welcome, welcome, welcome to Armchair Anonymous. I'm Dan Rather. I'm joined by Mrs. Mouse.

This one is a triggering one. Oh my God. Pranks gone wrong. Because I...

Some of these pranks, they really go off the rails. They do. And I hate pranks. So much.

Yes. Kind of when it's going wrong for people. You think what you read what you saw? A little.

Sure. You wanted to dance with the devil. Now he's dipping ya. Yeah.

Good luck. You missed reward, okay? Oh, look, there's a lot of legendary ones. What's the best one you've heard?

A famous friend of mine gets invited to an extremely famous person's house in Italy. And I don't know if it's a wedding or whatever it is, but there's a ton of guests. And my friend has arrived a couple of days after most people. And he's in the pool.

Okay. And the host, the very famous host says, do you think you could beat the back and forth swimming record underwater, hold your breath record? Oh. And my friend said, well, what is it?

And he said, it's two laps. And my friend's like, I think I could beat that. And he's like, I don't think you can, but if you want to give it a shot, fine. So my friend does it.

He almost kills himself. Oh my God. He goes two and a half laps. He comes out of the water.

Oh my God. And they were like 30 people by the pool. And the second he went under the host, everyone just, we had, so he came up all triumphant that he's got the new record and there's nobody there. I think that's pretty funny.

Also, Kimmel has pranked you with a coffee. Yes. He's a prankster. He is a prankster.

By the way, that's who it happened to. Oh my God. See, if you're a prankster, you're going to get pranked. This is part of it.

It's like, I want nothing to do. Right. Live by the sword. Die by the sword.

Yeah. Well, please enjoy pranks going wrong. Just coming, go. Take him slow.

My life. I had a bow. You let it go. I'm going to keep him shining.

Hello. Hello, Jess. Are we using your real name? Yes, we are.

You're camping, it seems. You're an attempt. I put up this nice sheet behind me. My computers have like a little alcove of my room, so I just tried to seal it off.

Perfect. I love the effort. Where you are? I'm in central, New York.

I'm in a little antique town called backville. I love antiques. Me, too. all that we're known for.

And are you working professionally with the antiques? No, I work at a jewelry store, but I'm actually on maternity leave right now. Congratulations. Congratulations.

Thank you. Okay, now you were a part of a prank that went wrong. Yes. We cannot wait to hear.

Please tell us what happened. Okay, so the subject of the story is my best friend Becca. She's a four foot 11 baby angel. I love her so much.

Oh, I would like her too. I like minis. She's also very gullible and so super easy to mess with, which I can relate to. That's usually my position in the world.

So I went to college with Becca and our other good friend Olivia. And I mentioned Becca's stature before because I used to ask her to step on my back to crack it all the time. Oh, sure. I was a master back cracker.

I designated back cracker. I had to walk on so many backs. DBC. It's just the best.

The weight of a human cracking is better. Anyway, it was around Halloween time. We are grocery shopping. What age were you guys?

I was probably 18 at the time. Okay. And Becca was 35. Yeah, she was old enough to be my mother.

We were all about 18. I saw a tube of fake blood grocery store and I got this idea that I cooked up with our friend Olivia and recruited her to like help me out with it. So the honest Olivia and I had no business putting on a prank like this. We're too goofy.

It was not going to work. And I got the blood just thinking like I'll have it, but I know that we're going to mess up immediately when the time was right. I asked Becca to step on my back. Oh, that's great.

Obviously, normally you start around the lower spine area. But I was asking her to go up and up and up until she was basically at my neck. And at this point, I had the tube of blood in my sleeve and I was like, okay, if we don't mess anything up, it's there. I'm going to press down on it and just stop talking.

Oh, oh my God. Wait. I'm out of your mouth. Yes.

Oh, wonderful. Wonderful. That's so mean. And it's also very out of character for me.

I don't think I'm a person, but I just thought I would shoot my dad. I'm sure. College is a time for experimenting. So Olivia's job was going to be to say, oh my God, the chest, are you okay?

Is that blood? And she did? And everything went beautifully. And Becca thought that she broke my neck and killed me.

Oh my God. This is a very dark prank. I really like that. Oh, no.

It's really bad. She immediately started crying and hyperventilating. I didn't want to go on too long. And then I got up and I was like, oh, it's fake.

She was not good for a while. Oh, no. What's a while? What's the time horizon of a while?

A good couple weeks. She was mad at you. She wasn't mad. She's such an angel.

She heard that she killed her friend. Exactly. She was hurt that I was dead. And then she had killed you.

But then a new lease on life, she's not a murderer. I'm fine. Right. You would think she'd be elated with that news.

After that, I tried to insert an apology into every conversation when it didn't belong. If you like, so you want to go to Mills for lunch and I'm sorry about that stuff. Honestly, she applauded it. She was like, you guys did a great job.

Like for tears. Oh, she's crying. She's the best. I would kill to have her walk on my back right now.

Oh, me too. I realize when I was remembering the story that I haven't asked her to do it since. What is the statute of limitation? I think you sacrificed the back walking for the prank, unfortunately.

Coming from a professional Monica. I'm never going to ask a cat. Yeah. Well, if you've had anyone walk on your back, neither of the children or anyone.

I don't think so. I love getting them up there. Tap dancing around my back feels so good. That's the reason in and of itself to have children is to get a little people to walk on your back.

Or play with your hair. You're not doing a ton of that with me. You haven't trained them well enough. I was trying when they were really little.

How much hair have you gotten from them? Minimal, right? Here in the hair? Just a little bit.

Put some ketchup in your hair after they do it. Something that you fractured your skull. We're still best friends. I'm in her wedding next month.

I wonder if she after that ruled out walking on anyone's back permanently. Yes. 100%. I'm never doing it again because just the notion that I had killed the person.

What if? Yes. You realize how reckless you're being with someone's spinal column. I'm not expecting anyone who's listening to this will also never walk on anything.

It'll put an end of back walking all together. I got a little nervous honestly. I was like closer to my neck. What if something actually?

Well, to be honest, because this was prank gone wrong, I was expecting perhaps a broken lumbar. I guess it'd be cervical. But yeah, oh, Jess, what a delightful story. And I'm glad you guys stuck together through it.

Me too. So basically where we went wrong is that everything went perfectly right and we emotionally scarred our friend. I appreciate you guys taking the time. Oh, just so nice to talk to you.

I can tell you're the sweetest person and I'm delighted I got to meet you. Oh, this is so cool. So much is such a cool way for fans to get to interact with you. Well, listen, I'm prone to be driving big brown through all parts of this great country.

So if you ever see that flying whale and Jennings logo on back flag us down, I could show you my 1966 Chrysler 300. Oh, I would love one of those. That's a big girl. Yes, she's like a boat to drive.

But I honestly love it more than a small car. It's so fun. It is. Well, Jess, so nice meeting you.

Thanks for telling us that story. You too. Thank you guys so much. All right.

Be well. Bye. Hello. Can you hear me all right?

Yes, which is very rare Kyle generally we have to weed through some connection issues and some Mike issues. So we're delighted to hear your voice. I'm fired up. The Wi-Fi router went down 30 minutes ago for the first time ever.

So that was like a go figure kind of moment. Of course it did. Now, what do you think Monica Kyle and I have the exact same hair and beard combination currently? Close.

Really close. He's got a tight on the sides and a little longer on the chin chin chin. We're pretty close to the same. Hi, Dax.

I'm 6'3". You're right there, right? Well, depends what mood I'm in. I'm either just under it or I'm at it.

Yeah. We got some things, would you describe yourself as having a medium build as I do? Yeah. I've worked my way down to just under 220 over the last few months.

OK, great. From a peak of what? I was knocking on 250's door. There we go.

Yeah, 250 club. That was right there. Where are you? When you lift.

In the country. I am in Bautiful Utah. Ah, just drove through. Oh, did you really?

Yeah, days ago. Making my way home from Jackson Hole. Oh, sweet. OK, so Kyle, you were part of a prank that went wrong.

We can't wait to hear how. Yeah, it occurred in this very city years ago. This was my high school days, specifically the summer between my sophomore and junior year. Very rascally period for young men.

Dialed in. We got the license. I had a 86 Jeep Wrangler. Top was off.

Doors were off. Chick magnet. Come on, let's be honest. Tank tops were completely flowing.

So we were kind of in a little bit of like a prank streak. It was just after 4th of July. So during 4th of July period, you're doing like sparkler bombs or piccolo peat bombs or different things like that. You ever do the drain aluminum foil bomb?

No. OK, I won't go any further. So I'm not live. Yeah, we're not in the business teaching a lot of bombs.

That's the last thing anybody wants. So from there, I was the founder of this idea. There was five of us, me and four buddies. And we're like, you know what we should do tonight?

That would be exhilarating because we should open some fire hydards. Oh, sure, sure, sure. Because naturally that's an exciting thing to do. So the bulk of the city is just kind of built right into the foothills of the mountain.

And so where we decided to open a few fire hydrants was the very top of the hill. There was a new housing development going in where no homes were built, but the infrastructure was in all the curve. Gutter fire hydrants was there. So it seemed like a pretty low risk.

No witnesses totally. So we cracked a couple open. Really quick. What wrench are you using?

You get a big pipe wrench or do you want to see enormous crescent wrenches? It was a big pipe wrench. OK, dad's pipe wrench probably. Yeah, unfortunately he was an accomplice.

We opened a couple of fire hydrants. They go off. We are just thrilled with the amount of water that's coming out of them. It's everything we'd hope to be.

There's a few ways these things can go off now or there's just the one in the shoots forward. There's also I see it coming up the top sometimes all sides of a fire hydrant are essentially the opening. And so you can open any side what you see on the top is actually the valve. So the first thing is you put your wrench on the side that opens the hydrant.

Then you put your wrench on the top and you twist the top and that's essentially the on valve. Roger that makes a lot of sense. The more you twist it on the more the valve is opened up the more the water is coming out. So quite a bit of water.

Is anyone getting in the big stream? Just want to hear it. I'm sorry. I'm just thinking about doing this.

It sounds so fun. Yeah. Logistics are really getting you. Well, you got that image of like DJ Jazzy Jeff pop off a fire plug just for old time say people dancing in the fight.

You know, it's been a very romantic rich history. So we drive away. We come back an hour later. They're turned off in my 16 year old mind.

I'm thinking surely any time a fire hydrant is opened a light on a panel board is going off somewhere saying a fire hydrant is open. A button is pushed and that fire hydrant is turned off. That's an interesting conclusion. Yeah.

That's why I that's not how it works. Yeah. So we do that. We're like, well, that's great.

We turn them on somehow. They're turned off. This is as good as it gets. I like that you're also returning to the scene of the crime, which is like sure rule number one not to do.

We decide to do one more, but we want someone to be able to see and enjoy what we're doing. Yes, of course. You need fans. Yeah, exactly.

We worked our way a little bit just further down the hill into the residential neighborhood that existed on the side of the hill. And we found kind of a perfect road because it was in the middle of the neighborhood, but it was kind of this elbow shaped road that had no homes built on it yet. So it's like near the population, but no homes on it. This is ideal from a prank standpoint.

So we cracked out one open. It runs and we returned to the scene about an hour later. The water's still running and I'm thinking, oh, someone hasn't pressed the button yet. Right.

Turn this off. At this point, it's well after midnight. It's time to call it a day. The water is flowing, but going into the gutter, going into the catch drain.

We go home the next morning. We had an early morning football practice and so we went to football practice. We're talking about the previous night shenanigans and we're like, oh, we should go drive up there and check all that out. And so we're in the doors are off.

And if you think that sticks are on. Maximum flow. So we go to turn right onto the street and it's police taped off instantly kind of get that initial pit in the stomach like that is way too frickin coincidental. So we turn on to what would be kind of a parallel running street, but just a block down the hill.

And as we turn on that street, there's just cars parked bumper to bumper. The whole neighborhood is at this house. It's a nice house. They are all loading flood damaged furniture out of daylight basement.

And the entire property has like six to eight inches of mud everywhere. I mean, there are neighbors out there with snow shovels shoveling. Oh my God. You're up against legal troubles now in your mind, right?

It's massive. There's a lot of damage. Essentially, no one pressed the button because that button didn't exist. Yes.

And that water ran all night long. It was 1.5 million gallons of water. No. What?

I even fact checked this a couple of weeks ago. A buddy and I were talking about it and I found the article in the news that confirmed the water quantity. It put the city on irrigation reserve for the rest of summer. People are going out to water their lawns during certain hours.

Goodness. Oh my God. The storm drain system under the road that normally collects water runoff and deposits where it should be going that failed. So the water was going underneath the road, re-emerging in this kind of natural ravine that flowed right into these people's backyard.

Oh my God. Because it took all the dirt and the soil from underneath the road where that road used to be that the fire hydrant was on is now a 150 foot long, 15 foot deep just collapsed road. Oh my God. It looked like an earthquake fault line had just ripped the road in half.

Oh my God. Oh my God. My friends and I are just sitting on the curb, assessing the chaos while like Chopper 5 gets the overhead view for like the 5 o'clock news that night. We're sick.

We're so screwed. Yes. We do what we think is logically the best thing to do at that time, which is pretend to be concerned neighbors and just start pitching into the relief. Yes.

Is the famous story of helping someone find their wallet when you've stolen it? Oh, sure. Yes. Yes.

At one point, my buddy and I were sent by the homeowner, friend of the homeowner. I just remember me and my buddy were asked to go take a vehicle and go to the rent center to pick up a couple more. We're wetbacks and we're just driving with each other looking at each other like, are you kidding me right now? What are we doing?

There's a lot for a 17 year old. Are you calling us for jail? Yeah. Deaders prison.

I instantly went into this is hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage. Can I ask a quick question? We might not answer this, but famously in Michigan, there were commercials promoting the Church of Latter Day Saints and the commercials were a young boy would get in his dad's pickup truck in the driveway and he'd monkey around with the truck and he got it in gear and he drove it down the driveway and accident and crashed it and he comes in and tells his father I drove the truck and crashed it and his father says I'm so proud of you for telling me and that was the commercial for Church of Latter Day Saints. So in my mind, the Mormons love and apology.

As long as you own your shit, you're good to go. Now, are you Mormon? B, that community has to be heavily Mormon. C, does any of that play into this fire hydrant tomorrow?

I would say yes to all three. Okay. Two to three. So here's the thing.

We had moved to Utah a year previous. I was born and raised in Spokane, Washington. We had moved to Utah with my dad's job and we were in the process of building a home and my immediate thought as a 16 year old was just this is an unbelievable house. This is hundreds of thousands of dollars damage.

I turned my buddies and I'm like, we cannot go down for this. In my mind, we will not have a home to live in. You owe someone a house. Yes.

So I'm committed to being like, we're not getting caught. But because we're very open about what we were up to the previous night, there were quite a few leaks to plug. Yes. And so we spent some time kind of trying to plug those as much as we could.

And needless to say, for three days, the article I even found the other day, there was a reward out for any tips leading to our rest. Oh, it was on the news multiple days in a row. How stressed were those three days? I was physically sick.

No appetite wasn't sleeping at night. On Sunday, I went to probably the longest session of church I'd been doing my life. Yeah. Yeah.

Your soul was on fire. So I come back. My mother and siblings were out of town. They were up and smoking actually.

And so it was just my dad and I there. And he was about to start barbecuing some food. He said, hey, why don't you call my friends so and so see if he wants to come over for dinner. He was an accomplice in this.

And I called him and I said, I do what's going on. And all he responded was, they know. I'm like, what do you mean, they know? It's like, I just got back from the police department.

No. And so I hang up on him. I grab what kids wouldn't understand today is like our caller ID box, right? Connected to the phone and I start scrolling through the caller ID box in bountiful PD is called like five times.

Oh, you're dead. At this point, it's done, right? I make the long walk down the hall to the kitchen and I just spring the news on and I said, Dad, have you been watching the news recently? He's like, no, I haven't.

I'm like, well, I've made a huge mistake. There's a problem. Yeah, I told him what happened and he didn't thank me. By the way, a little different than the commercial.

I remember his response saying, take me and show me what you did. Oh boy. Okay. And I still to this day vividly remember sitting in the passenger seat of our Jeep Cherokee, staring out the windshield as my dad stood on the edge of this cliff where a road used to be.

Oh, my God. When you're the kid, you think your dad's going to know how to handle this. But guess what? Dad has no clue how to fucking handle this either.

Yeah, as a parent now, I completely clueless with the most minor things. Yes. Alone some catastrophic. Your dad was probably sitting on the edge of that going, what on earth am I supposed to do about this?

It was wild. So my friend, the same one who went to the police department, he had turned us in. His mom saw us the day after and she knew. Yeah.

And she spent about 48 hours just all over him. She broke him down and ultimately that probably helped us out. The fact that we came forward, albeit not unanimously, but he came forward. Yes.

Yes. And helped with the rebound project. This is so weird. The house that was damaged, we all individually apologized.

I wrote a letter and delivered it to him. And then we all collectively went to their house because all their HVAC was run under slab in their basement. Their HVAC ducks were filled with mud and water. Oh, and so we spent some time there chipping away all the concrete, pulling the HVAC ducks out, digging new trenches.

All the while she was bringing us like lemonade and fresh mints, thanking us for helping killing you with humanity. They were unbelievable. And ultimately when we went to a court order mediation with all the victims involved, the city was the only representative who showed up. We ended up coming to an agreement of a small fine and each doing about 200 hours of community service.

Oh, wow. And did the coach try to like kick you guys off the team or anything? It feels like in a smaller town, you might get pressured. I think what was clear to everyone was that we're obviously not like civil engineer masterminds that could have foreseen this much damage being done.

And so I think there was quite a bit of grace involved there from all parties just knowing that wasn't the intent. Right. You're like, it's somebody else's fault. We didn't press the button.

There's a button. I know. Not to mention why are these storm drains working? They should be able to handle that amount of 1.5 million gallons.

I'll take responsibility, but I would like to identify the button. Put your name in the middle and make sure there's some level of kind. That they're drinking coffee throughout their shift because clearly they had fallen asleep when this thing was going on. You've got some holes in your program.

I'm just saying. Oh, Kyle, I don't think there's any chance we'll hear a story that that catastrophic. Yeah. Unless there's a death coming.

Oh, God. It's pretty intense and shaped my decision making for the rest of my teenage years. That's the best thing you can do to a kid that's fucked up is be really nice to him. It just kills him.

Crushes you. Well, Kyle, thanks so much for that barn burner of a story. My pleasure. Just so excited to talk to you guys.

Love both of you and it's honored to talk to you. Thank you so much. Great. Be careful.

Take care. Well, sweatshirt. Does it take you to try to only see the top? Oh, it does.

I did it for you. My boyfriend works for this company. As soon as I found out, I was doing this, I was like, you got to get me a Detroit. Are you in Michigan?

No, I'm in Ohio, but we lived in LA for many years moved here when he got this job. Oh, we're in Ohio. Are you wearing Columbus of the many Ohio destinations? That's a good one.

Every time I tell someone that we moved from LA, they're like, what a big change. What made you move? I love the Midwest. Oh, good.

So you're pointing out? Have you been to Cedar Point? No, but I want to go. Don't miss it this summer.

I will go. You were a part of a prank that went wrong. Yes. I pulled this prank when I was a freshman college on my mom.

So there's some pieces to the story. Oh, oh, another piece I wanted to tell you real quick before I get in the story. Yeah. My last is a cherry.

Oh, my God. No way. You need to be a nominated president or something for sure. You were born in.

I was born to be an arm cherry. Anyways, so named after my mom's mom, who was a huge prankster. Grandma Alice was a handful. Yes.

She would bring rubber cockroaches to our house when we were kids. I have no more pranks. My wrong. I'm named after her.

So I have this legacy to live up to. She passed away like two years before this prank took place. So I'm like really wanting to carry on her legacy. So that's number one.

Number two freshman college. My mom is living alone less than a mile from my freshman dorm. Oh, jeez. It was not supposed to be this close.

I went to the University of South Carolina where she went as well, which is important to the story. When I picked USC, I picked because she went there, but also it was supposed to be nine hours for my family long story short. I ended up like a mile away. I had this chip on my shoulder.

I was like, I want to be independent. My dad's in the Air Force. He's overseas. So she's living alone.

Oh boy. I'm also a runner and I'm not wanting to show any homesickness, not wanting to admit that I was actually kind of happy that she was close. She's a teacher. So her working hours is very predictable.

And I'm like, oh, I could just do my run route by the townhouse that she's renting pop in without her knowing snuggle my dog, run back to campus. No one will know everyone will think I was super independent. And it's great. I start doing this.

I do it all through September of my freshman year. It's a great home sickness fix. So then October comes around and it's Halloween. It's a spooky time.

And I'm like, okay, this is a really good setup for a really epic prank. And the part I didn't tell you and why it's important that she was USC is the townhouse she rented was on a site that used to be a mental institution. Oh, we love this. Every town has this.

Yes. When she was in USC, she was a part of this program that did like pin pals with patients across the state and she had a mental institution that passed away while she was a student and passed away at the mental institution. Oh my. Okay.

That's the setup. So when she did this townhouse, I don't think she knew that, but we had this running joke where you're like, it's going to be haunted. Of course. Yeah.

The atrocities that have happened exactly. So I'm there one day. I'm struggling with my dog and I'm like, I could make her think that this place is haunted. This is genius.

I see no wrongs in this. This is hilarious. So phase one has to be subtle, right? Because you wanted to like get into her head, have her start to think maybe something is off, but you can't like hit her with anything big.

Right. You can't scare off the mark. I just swapped her throw pillows and I moved the curtains from like the left to the right. Okay, great.

Come back three days later. I swap pillows. I move the curtains and I'm like, she could easily just think she's going crazy. Yeah.

Phase one complete. No one says anything. I'm not saying anything to anyone. Phase two.

I come in and I'm like, I gotta ramp it up a little bit. So I do the pillows. I do the curtains and move a candle from the living room into her bedroom. I'm like, I'm like, please around again.

Subtle enough that like maybe she's going crazy, but she's going to start getting worried. I do that twice. Week two, week three. I go.

I swap the pillows. I do the curtains. I move things around and no poor films like paranormal activity. Drawers will like open by yourself.

Yes. So I open up drawers. I open doors that weren't open before. I open up drawers and just forget.

Yeah. And it's like, I'm like, this is great. Or ransack like, but yes. Yes.

I didn't think about that. I was so in the ghost mindset. Confirmation bias. Yeah.

I think about paranormal. So I'm like, this is so clearly a ghost and it's so hilarious. And then I come back before and I'm kind of getting bummed because like she hasn't said anything and she's a very vocal person. She hasn't expressed that she thinks she's going crazy.

She hasn't expressed that she thinks it might be haunted. And I'm like, I'm not living up to my grandma's legacy. I'm not carrying it on. So week four, I go and I'm like, I gotta do something real freaky.

Oh no. No, no, no. No. I'm not.

You're like, I'm going to film a ghost targets one person. And a lot of the movie ends up being that person trying to convince everyone else that they're being targeted. So I go around the entire townhouse and every photo that has her in it. I slam it.

No, this is so scary. Me and bad. Oh God. I love this story.

I'm like, either you're going to think I'm a psychopathic. There's nothing like in between. So I slam all those photos down, even on the fridge, every photo that had her in it. I took the magnet off, let the photo fall, put the magnet back.

Oh. Well, like everything. And I'm still thinking, this is hilarious. This is just a joke.

It's funny. Nothing. And I'm like, does she think an earthquake hit? Like what is she thinking is happening right now?

You're not mad at the victim. Now I'm mad. And it ended up kind of perfect because it's two days before Halloween now. I go back again, I do all the things I've said before.

I took an ex-boy marker and on the mirrors I wrote get out. This is so clearly a ghost. This is so bad. This is so bad.

I leave and I'm so giddy. I'm like, this is hilarious. So I go back to campus, I know she's gonna be home at 4 p.m. I'm like waiting around.

She calls me at 5 p.m. And I'm like, yes. I'm gonna get all the glory here. She calls me at 5 p.m.

And she goes, hey, A.G., I didn't want to scare you. But the last month, someone's been targeting me, breaking into the townhouse. I've been scared. Your dad is really scared.

The whole townhouse office. And they have increased security around here. Oh my god. There's a really bad attack today.

Attack. The cop is here and he searched the entire townhouse. The person is not here anymore. They're changing the locks and they've added a camera so that we can catch this guy.

So don't be scared. I just want to know what was going on. And I had that moment of realization of like, oh, I took it a little too far. He has, he has, he got cops involved now.

My dad's like overseas, not sleeping, thinking like his life is being targeted. Oh my god. I was like, no, no, no, I was like, it's been me. It's been me this whole time.

And I remember it feeling like such a long silence because I was like sitting there and I just went, I'm really sorry. And she said, A.G., get ready. I'm coming to pick you up. And hung up the phone.

And that's all she said. She picks me up. It's like a silent car ride, except me just like, I'm sorry, I thought it was going to be really funny. I ran my illness.

Yeah, I get there. And she's like, I already told them to stop changing the locks. But you have to go tell the cops what you did. You have to go tell the front office what you did.

So I had to tell this cop like it was all a joke. And he just went, all right. And I had to go to the office and I'll never forget. I told him the whole story.

And they just looked at me. I was like, I'm really sorry. It didn't mean for it to get this battery to like, have to hire extra help. And they just said absolutely nothing.

Because everyone was really scared. Someone's coming in over and over again. They're so comfortable to enter and leave and enter. He'd alerted them from the very first time that I had gone in.

Oh, boy. Wow. Going in five or month of her big terror. I am not sleeping.

Oh, man. Oh, Lord, you're poor mother. Oh, no. And she's like the sweetest person ever.

And I just made her terrified for a month. But I made my grandma proud. Yeah. Well, that's right.

She was smiling from up above below. That's her own daughter being terrified. Oh, Alice. Well, that's a whoo.

Doozy. Yeah. Boy, oh boy. Real quick.

You guys played a huge role in me and my friend's relationship. Our first date was going to be saying you guys have had to do enough before I got canceled. But then we saw you with like, there and holds in LA. Oh, he's here.

And so I wore Detroit for you, Dax. Uh-huh. He's got a Monica surprise. Yes.

Love it. Oh, look at this. You guys are gorgeous. What a couple.
