stories sometimes...

about people being shut out

of things they created...

and I think it's horrible.

I'm sorry.

But I mean it's a good lesson

that I had to learn, because...

You know, because of my

pride, I didn't want...

to take the understudy

and I took too long...

to think about it and then

I lost the understudy job.

And they gave that to

Katherine Meriss and...

And she sucks.

- She sucks.

- No, she's good, guys.

Anyways, the reason that

she's really big now...

is because she ended up going up.

Svetlana pulled out last minute...

and Katherine ended

up doing the show.

- Katherine Meriss?

- Exactly.

As soon as you said that,

I thought, "Katherine Meriss...

that's pretty much the only

person in dance I'd know."

Right. Well...

So, she basically stole

your... your whole thing?

Katherine Meriss has

your life, basically.

- Career.

- You have your life.

It's a shame that it happened.

She doesn't hold a candle to you.

Then, here's to the

life that we do lead.

- Yeah.

- Well said.

- Here's to the comet.

- The comet. And the comet.

Anybody have a happier story?

Kevin, tell a crazy story, first

one that comes in your head.

No. All right.

Um... Sorry.

I was going out with Laurie.

We were drinking way

too much at a bar.

I passed out and I

started dreaming...

this big black bear...

was up on its hind legs

sort of mauling me.

Slowly. Tenderly.

Anyhow, we go to some party...

in Santa Cruz and as we walked in,

this huge dog comes

running straight at me.

Jumps up on its hind legs

and starts pawing me,

exactly like the dream,

and this guy yells,

- "Bear, get down, Bear."

- What?

Wow. You have a gift.

The way you told that

story, I thought...

somebody was going to die.

You know Bear is the

most common dog name.

Oh, that makes it a much

less interesting story.

Thanks for that, Lee.

Most common bear name? Henry.

- Look.

- Oh, my God.

- What?

- This is like your phone.

Oh, my God. That happened

to my phone tonight.

And I was just holding

mine in my hand.

- Exact same thing.

- Shattered?

Yeah. This is what they were

talking about on the news.

Yeah. Yeah.

It must be the comet.

- The chicken tastes like tuna.

- All right.

It must be Miller's Comet.

So, nobody's phone works?

I haven't checked mine,

but I assume it doesn't.

Everyone else's is

in the other room.

- Do you guys have a landline?

- No. We're wireless, baby.

All right. I need to get

ahold of my brother.

- What about, um, your deal...

- The computer.

- Good idea.

- It's in the office.

- Could I?

- Yeah, yeah. Thanks.

- What's wrong with your brother?

- Nothing. He's fine.

He just, um... You know Brian.
