Hi! I'm mack burns.

Wow!

Oh, my gosh. I am so rude!

Hey, Clark,

Ambrosia:
This town.

It's like so white!

This thing is for hobbits.

- Welcome

to coast to coast movers.

All of our operators

are currently busy.

We appreciate your Patience

and will be with you shortly.

So, do you like rap?

Um... depends on what kind.

What about 2-bit?

I've never really liked her.

So what, then?

Afropunk, uh... Bjork,

'90s hip-hop, and free jazz?

- But where are you from again?

- Brooklyn.

All the rappers

are from Brooklyn.

So what's that like?

Well, it's just really busy

and crazy and fun.

And annoying and loud,

but it's worth it.

You see famous people.

Cool!

Customer service:

Mr. burns?

Yes, yes, I'm here!

Yeah, unfortunately,

your truck is delayed, but...

- Ugh!

- Yeah, I'm sorry.

I'll put you through

to the tracking system now.

No, no, please!

- Nice.

- Hi.

Hi.

Oh, no!

This sucks.

'Cause these clowns

keep putting me on hold.

Oh, I'm sorry, babe.

Um... isn't the delivery

window seven to 10 days?

Well, now, I don't even know.

- You want half this?

- Sure. Thanks.

Recording on phone: Welcome

to coast to coast movers.

I can't understand

what you said.

Mack:
Because I wasn't

speaking to you.

Okay, to schedule a move, say,

"make reservation."

For your vehicle's location,

say, "track my truck."

Mack:
Track my truck!

Please hold for a customer

service representative.

Oh, hey, what's the Wi-Fi?

No Wi-Fi.

They won't be in our area

until the end of the month,

which is why I have to do

everything on this.

Ugh.

Oh. Hey, look.

This got mixed in somehow.

- Nice!

- Yeah.

When was that?

Well, it was your birthday.

So it was probably two years

ago this week?

Mack:
Hmm.

I really want your birthday

to be special.

Do you think that William and

Joe and Vizey can come visit?

She arguing a big case.

Yeah. Oh! Maybe William

can just come by himself.

- He could. -Yeah. It's

like three hours away.

Mack:
Mmm-hmm. Gina: He

can just take the bus.

- Hi!

- Hi.

Mack:
How did it go?

For your vehicle's location,

- say, "track my truck."
