look it's shit, it's shit, i know it is!

i didn't have the budget
for a composer, okay?

i spent it all on a
realistic camp skeleton.

who are you making fun of, huh?

i paid for you.
don't give me that attitude.

erm, yeah, so we didn't
have a music department.

i had to get this shit early 2000s
yamaha off of ebay

that was probably stolen from the dead—

the dead hands?

why'd it have to be the dead hands

of a child at a secondary school?

i don't know.
i pried it out of the dead hands of a child.

a show without a strong theme tune

is nothing.

okay, never mind.
erm— god no

we need someone that understands emotional pain,

how freaking weird the internet is,

and actually has just some level of talent, okay?

if you say logan paul again,
i swear to god, sophie—

a pickle fan, is that correct?

dd: i am! yeah!
