Transcript
Stop. There's a star. That was the only shape he knew. Oh my god. He used to always call me a bird. Oh my god. Wait, I just tripped. You know what they say about the 23rd of the month? If there's a sunset up north, that means I'll get rich and famous. Oh my god. That's literally us. Oh my god, did you hear that screeching noise? Like that, that sounds exactly like the noise his bed made.
