Jeff: No way, no way.<br>
BC: Not even close, he’s like a rock god.<br>
Jeff: He’s not me, no, it’s not me.<br>
BC: He’s got the abs and everything.  Unlike you English, uh, beer drinker types.  You don’t have the abs, you know it.  Hey, I don’t have the abs!  Heh.  Anyway, heh heh.  Is everybody alright?  ''(Robert Plant impression)''  I said is everybody alright?  ''(normal voice)''  Gonna play some Zeppelin now.  Heh heh heh.  Come on, Jimmy, Jimmy Page.<br>
'''Dazed and Confused''' (tease)<br>
