a few of my going-out tops,

but it's really hard

to find a good sitter.

Well, I've got some bad news.

This is so brutal.

And then to get chopped up like that?

- Yeah. It's tough.

- Oh, my God. Poor Heather.

It's terrible. And, uh,

what was your relationship with her?

Was she close to you guys?

Was she like family?

She... Eh...

She... she was the babysitter.

But, you know, nice.

She was fine.

- Oh, hey, honey.

- Hi there.

Uh, this is my daughter, Carys.

Carys, this is Detective Handsome.

Did you overhear everything that happened?

Mmm-hmm.

The angels came

and took Miss Heather to hell.

Hmm.

I don't know

where she gets that stuff.

- Kids.

- Oh, sh*t!

I'm so late for work

and I'm out of sick days.

- What time do you work till?

- One o'clock. Fridays are my half-day.

I'll watch her.

- Wait, are you serious?

- I'm totally serious.

I've got some questions to ask you.

Uh, we can get back to that

as soon as you come back.

- Great. Thank you so much.

- Yeah. Sure.

- That's great. You're fine.

- Yeah. Yeah.

You're great. Yeah. Okay. Good? Okay.

How about that?

Who wouldn't want a real detective

as their babysitter?

Guess you. You're the one who doesn't.

I'm really good at dancing.

You're gonna love the show

that I have planned for you.

Very exciting. I love the arts.

I'm a patron.

Of the arts.

- Take a seat on the couch.

- All right.

Get a load of me

Get a load of you

Walking down the street

And I hardly know you

It's just like we were meant to be

Holding hands with you

When we're out at night

Got a girlfriend

You say it isn't right

It isn't right

And I've got someone...

- When does it start?

- This is the pre-entertainment.

It's important to set a tone

for the audience.

And for the record,

you can't be talking to me.

Whenever I think about you

Why can't I speak

Whenever I talk about-

Hi.

- How's Carys?

- A delight.

- Really?

- She's a great kid. Yes.

- Oh, good. Great.

- Yeah.

- Is, uh, now a good time?

- Yeah. Sure. Uh-huh.

- All right. How was your day?

- Ugh, it was disgusting.

I hate teeth.

I am so sick

of looking into people's mouths.

I have this recurring nightmare where

instead of all of my teeth falling out,

I get more of them.

Just, like, more and more and more.

I get teeth fingernails

and teeth toenails.

My belly button even sprouts a tooth.

It's disgusting.

Have you thought of getting out

of the dental industry?

Yeah. Teeth are vile.

You know, both of our jobs,

we see the worst of people.

That's so true.

- Heather, your babysitter.
