Okay, that's good.

:01:32

- So do you like Dysfunction?
- What?

:01:35

- The show? Do you watch the show?
- Yeah, of course.

:01:39

So, here's the deal. You're Marie-France...

:01:41

a French foreign-exchange student
from France.

:01:44

You're staying with the Parkers,
and you're a little Gallic hottie, all right?

:01:47

- Buttery little croissant.
- A toasty little bagel.

:01:50

Okay, and Cody, naturally,
wants to get all up in that ass soup.

:01:54

- You know what I'm saying?
- Yeah.

:01:57

Do I have to wear these shoes?
My feet are killing me.

:02:01

- They're French.
- Okay, so look, we know that you can dance.

:02:05

So I want you to go ahead
and grab that over there.

:02:08

You'll drop the French bread,
and you'll say the line:

:02:11

"Oh-la-la, I've dropped my baguette!"

:02:13

You wiggle your little tushy
in front of the audience...

:02:15

as you bend over to pick it up, and presto!
A star is born.

:02:18

You think you can handle that?

:02:21

- Do you want me to do it now?
- Yeah.

:02:28

Oh-la-la. I've dropped my baguette!

:02:30

All right, that was excellent.
That was beautiful. That was very nice.

:02:33

I liked the accent, very authentic.

:02:35

Thank you. We're done here. We'll call you.
You can leave now.

:02:40

Don't try to walk off with those shoes, now.
They belong to the show.
