Oh! Guess what? I slept with a black woman. What? Nothing. Dad, do you like Spider-Man? Nope. Don't care for him. Never have. Don't like the mask, the costume, the get-up, the webs. He comes off like a real dickhead. Real poser. What's a poser? A poser is Gary. That's what a poser is. By the way, how is that shitheel? What's a shitheel?

A shitheel is a real fun term that you should call Gary every time you see him. When he wakes you up for breakfast, say, "Good morning, shitheel." He'll probably give you $5 or some candy. Does that sound good? Yeah. You're a shitheel, Dad. Good. You should just call Gary that. 'Cause it makes him really happy. It makes me sort of happy, but it makes him really happy.

Dad. Huh? Sometimes I hear sounds at night and I get scared. I think there's a ghost in my closet. Now, you listen to me, son. There is no such thing as ghosts. Case closed. So what's real that's scary? You really want to know the one thing you should be afraid of? Yes, I really do.

Voodoo. Voodoo? Yes, voodoo. That shit will mess you up. And it is 100% real. Promise me that you'll never go to Haiti. I promise, Dad. This was good. I enjoyed spending time with you. Me, too, Dad. Oh, and hey. Do you want to go to Haiti sometime? No. Good. Good. What did you tell him? I didn't tell him anything. He hasn't slept for four days, Ron! Everywhere we go, he asks me if we're going to Haiti! What does that even mean? I am so sick and tired that you've sheltered him from the evils of voodoo. You need to learn to connect with him in a healthy way! Let me ask you something, and I'm not trying to be funny here. Are you sure he's not a midget with a learning disability? He is seven years old, Ron. All right. Now listen to me. He has a science fair tomorrow, at 8:00, and he wants you to be there. I will be there. All right? Now, who do you have for sweeps week? I'm not discussing work with you, Ron, okay? Just be there at the science fair tomorrow. Fine!

Well, they're calling it the interview of the decade. Veronica Corningstone will sit down with Yasser Arafat. Yasser who? The head of the PLO and some say the key to peace in the Middle East. Of course, Ms. Corningstone is the ex-wife of Ron Burgundy, so you know that's got to be a little stinger for Ronny. Tony Danza's scrotum! Well, that'll do it for all of us here at GNN. Thank God for the events, thank me for the news. I'm Dick Phuc.

We're pulling that story, Brian. What? Why? I worked hard on that story. It was my call, all right, Brian? Just let it go. It's synergy. What does that mean? Take it easy, Ron. We got further than anybody thought we would. We'll get 'em next time. You take it easy! I'm not in this to finish second! I think Champ is just saying... I know what he was trying to say, Brian, okay? And it doesn't surprise me that you guys don't care. Let's face it, I'm the one who gets the ratings.
