"Phil's out? *sniff* Alright, who do we know that can sing? Liza Minelli? She still sings, right? No, no, no. Wait, what am I thinking? *sniff* Is Ripper still with Priest? He is? F*ck. How 'bout Hagar? What's he doing these days? Ari, you know him, dontchya? You went to Cabo last spring, right? Get him on the phone STAT!"
