Government in Crisis

for obvious reasons.

This one's a mask.

It's still me.

It's a hat.

You know, we were going places as a band.

We had plans as a band.

Style Boyz, that's three guys, not two.

It doesn't work with two.

You know, it's like a tricycle.

You take away one of the

wheels, what have you got?

Nothing. A bicycle.

Don't use that.

Look, we had a good run, you know.

We had a few hits.

But it had run its course,

you know.

It was time

for us to all move on.

Get over it.

When the Style Boyz

broke up... (SIGHS)

Damn.

The only other time

I remember being that sad

was when they killed Josh

Charles on The Good Wife-

(SINGING) I'm a Style Boy

for life (ALL CHEERING)

DEBORAH:
Y'all ready for this?

Yeah.

Okay. Welcome to the future, b*tches.

(some PLAYS)

(CHUCKLES)

That's Conner's song.

Whoa!

(SONG STOPS)

(some PLAYS)

(ALL CHEERING)

(CHEERING)

Okay, both sides.

Okay.

It's fun, right?

ALL:
Yeah.

You know, it's my favorite.

I like the freezer one.

Listen to this, homies. We

can upload your entire album

to fridges,

washer-dryers, blenders,

and microwaves

across the country.

You could do that?

Yes, nerd.

It's just Wi-Fi jibber jabber.

It's not a big deal.

Nobody doing appliance

sh*t, my nigga.

Ain't that right, my n*gger? No

one is doing appliance sh*t.

HARRY:
Okay,

went with the hard

This is that next,

next, next, man.

I told you all,

Deborah's a genius.

It's true, and it is

also pronounced "Deboarrah."

"Deboarrah." Oh, that's very cool.

ALL:
"Deboarrah."

What's the origin of that?

Uh, I believe Deborah.

That was ridiculous.

Right? Oh, my God,

yes, that was insane.

I mean, who would wanna

listen to music that way?

Swag. CONNER:
I know

it's kind of weird,

but Aquaspin's gonna help us

get the music out there, man.

I mean... You don't think

people are gonna have a problem

when musk:
"gust

appears 'm thew houses'?

CONNER:
Look, I know

it sounds lame,

but there's no such thing

as selling out anymore, man.

This is how big business works.

I mean, nowadays,

if you don't sell out,

people will wonder

if nobody asked you to.

Right.

But look, dude,

if you're not comfortable

with it, we could rethink it.

No, man, it's cool.

It's cool.

All right, cool.

Let's get in the car.

This jacket's making

me sweat my ass off.

Yeah, it's f***ing hot

as sh*t out here.

AUTOMATED VOICE:
Welcome to

the car, Conner. CONNER: AC.

Did you say Macy's?

(BONNER:
AC.

Did you say Macy's?

Macy's? Macy's? CONNER:

Air conditioning.

Sometimes Conner just gets an idea,

and he runs with it, you know,

and he's right, like,

99.9% of the time,

so you've just got to trust

that he knows what he's doing.
