You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh, I would definitely consider "She's Not There" a classic. It's probably the only Zombies song that most people know, aside from "Time of the Season."

Anyway, it still gets plenty of airplay more than 40 years after its release.

Yes, I believe that those are the only two Zombies songs that I know.

You need to rectify this! The entire Odyssey and Oracle album is classic. Super gorgeous, smart weird late sixties pop.

And their earlier singles are also fantastic, with those cool Colin Blunstone leads and jazzy, electric piano chords: "Tell Her No," "Just Out of Reach," "Whenever You're Ready." All awesome.

The Zombies and the Hollies have two of the best, under-explored catalogs of the sixties. The Hollies are the only band that can really match the Beatles vocally, and on songs like "I'm Alive" and "Look Through Any Window" they're every bit as good.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

They win with a hail-Mary pass as time runs out.

wait, what? Did I fall asleep and dream the most awesome ending ever? I thought the plan was to force the opposing QB to fumble on the snap, so the team started groaning for brains, the stadium took up the chant, the ploy worked & I forget who picked up the fumbled ball and ran for the final touchdown.

I totally remember the Katie Couric interview too. Weird.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Damn! You're right, Laga. I goofed -- it was a fumbled snap.

Aha! I was totally fooled because a couple times I have fallen asleep and dreamt alternate endings to movies and TV shows.

Wait, wait - I've heard "Tell Her No."

Santana comes from the "wrong side of the tracks"? Did they say on another episode that her father is a doctor?

This episode has so many cringe-inducing scenes.
