00:00 (phone buzzing)
00:02 Yeah, I have the car.
00:13 Please.
00:17 Eli called me.
00:18 She went on the road to do shows with this older guy.
00:20 It's not skits, it's comedy, stand-up comedy.
00:24 Her voice was, I don't know, twisted,
00:27 like something really rotten is going on, Mom.
00:30 She's in the middle of nowhere.
00:31 I'm halfway to Nevada.
00:36 I love you, but she's my best friend and I'm doing this.
00:39 Yes, I'll fill the tank on the way home.
00:44 I know, premium plus.
00:45 (gentle music)
00:49 (car engine rumbling)
00:53 the road.
00:53 (gentle music)
00:56 (gentle music)
00:59 (woman screaming)
01:24 - Oh my God.
01:26 - Yash tried to kill me.
01:27 - What?
01:29 What about the shows?
01:31 - There were no shows.
01:32 He roofied my burrito.
01:34 - Where is he now?
01:35 - Come with me.
01:37 (gentle music)
01:40 (woman sighing)
01:54 (gentle music)
01:57 - Oh my God.
02:07 He scraped his knee when he was trying to stab me
02:10 and then when his blood hit the soil,
02:12 he just lit up like a Girl Scout fire.
02:15 (gentle music)
02:18 (gentle music)
02:20 I need to show you something
02:28 because I need you to believe me.
02:30 - Okay.
02:30 (gentle music)
02:33 (glass shattering)
02:38 (woman screaming)
02:39 - No, no, no, no, no, no.
02:40 (gentle music)
02:43 (woman grunting)
02:48 (gentle music)
02:50 - Please, don't leave me.
02:57 - What is that thing?
02:58 - It crawled out of the fire, like out of Yash.
03:01 - Your back is bleeding, dude.
03:04 What?
03:08 - It feels good.
03:10 - No, Eli, no.
03:11 - Sometimes I make these little circles, like a cat,
03:14 and I can feel it breathe.
03:15 - We have to go to a hospital or a church.
03:17 - No, no, we just need more information.
03:20 And besides, I let my insurance lapse
03:22 so I could pay my tarot reader.
03:23 (door creaking)
03:30 What is he, grinding an ostrich?
03:37 (gentle music)
03:40 (gentle music)
03:43 - This is Mongolian.
03:59 - How do you know that?
04:01 - My freshman year roommate was taking it.
04:04 - BYU teaches Mongolian?
04:06 - You can't convert people you can't talk to.
04:09 (phone beeping)
04:10 - What are you doing?
04:12 - Asking for a translation from the Mongolian Reddit forum.
04:15 - Hmm, do they even have a user base?
04:18 Hey, I'm sorry for counseling our trip
04:24 for a bunch of shitty fake gigs
04:26 with a demon-summoning road dog.
04:28 You know, we could have been out
04:30 looking at a bunch of stupid fucking birds.
04:32 - It happens.
04:34 - No, it doesn't.
04:38 It's okay, Carrie gave me a guest on his brewery show.
04:41 Gabe saw my set and asked me to feature
04:44 at the jokery next weekend.
04:46 - You've only been doing that mic for like two months.
04:55 - Sorry.
04:58 - No, it's fine, you know?
05:00 Throw the woman at rock bottom a shovel, right?
05:02 - I just drove four hours through Utah for you.
05:05 I thought you could at least summon up an iota
05:06 of happiness for me.
05:08 (screaming)
05:10 - Stop!
05:15 Get, hey, hey, you're being bad!
05:18 - It's an Otarkali deck.
05:33 - A what?
05:34 - A jealousy eater.
05:35 It eats people you're jealous of.
05:37 - I'm not jealous of you.
05:39 Okay, okay.
05:41 I can't help it.
05:42 - Troy, stop!
05:43 - How?
05:44 - I'm a 24-year-old virgin who lives at home with my parents.
05:49 - But you told me you had sex with that guy
05:58 with like the dumb hat.
05:59 - Yeah, well, I chickened out.
06:01 His name was Ethan.
06:03 - Shit.
06:06 - Hey, hey, don't you dare feel bad about that.
06:09 You know, you wanna go into something like that
06:11 with enthusiasm, right?
06:12 And nobody cares that you still live at home
06:14 with your parents.
06:15 They have like 10 bedrooms and a pool.
06:17 - Now is not the time for a positive spin.
06:21 - Hey, just drive.
06:23 I'll figure it out.
06:24 - You messed up the engine.
06:32 (engine revving)
06:35 - I can't be jealous if I'm not alive.
06:38 - Most people's hearts are on the left.
06:41 Mine is on the right.
06:42 - Eli!
06:43 Eli, no!
06:44 No!
06:47 No!
06:49 I pooped my pants at Reggie's Christmas party last year.
06:56 - Ew.
06:59 - I was really mad at my mom,
07:02 so I drank like three cold brews.
07:03 It's the world's most pathetic rebellion.
07:05 And then I went to the party
07:06 and no one was eating Lucy's egg salad,
07:08 so I ate a ton of it.
07:09 I smelled like the inside of Satan's butthole.
07:13 - I'm gonna be sick.
07:14 That's nasty.
07:15 - It was really, really gross.
07:17 And then when I got home, I sat in my car for like three hours
07:19 waiting for my parents to go to bed.
07:21 And when I realized I'd never get the smell out,
07:24 I rear-ended a parked car on purpose
07:25 and told them I'd shit myself in fear.
07:28 (birds chirping)
07:31 That is the most pathetic thing I've ever heard.
07:36 And I did eight open mics this week.
07:37 (dog growling)
07:39 (phone chimes)
07:41 It's allergic to salt!
07:44 - It'll get out eventually.
07:49 I mean, a wind or a coyote or something.
07:52 - You're a comedian.
07:53 There's always a high-sodium food nearby.
07:58 Don't worry, that egg salad image is gonna be in my head
08:00 for the rest of my life.
08:01 I'm happy for your new gig.
08:05 I really am.
08:06 - That's not what the demon says.
08:08 - It's a compliment.
08:09 Whatever, I can be two things.
08:13 I love you.
08:14 - I love you too.
08:16 - Wanna go look at some birds?
08:19 (upbeat music)
08:27 (car engine roaring)
08:30 (car screeching)
