Summary

Well, the Rough Stuffers have done it again! In this episode, they cast their spell and dispel the shell of David Bell who in his youth raised some hell. It all makes sense: the friendships with old men, the improv mosh pits, and the exceptionally powerful cranium. It's also clear that teen Bell would probably still be able to kick all of our asses.

everybody was out of the bathroom because I did not like the sound of my tinkle hitting the toilet

0:42.8

water. Wow. It made me very self-conscious that people knew that I was peeing even though I'm

0:46.8

like in a bathroom. I'm doing one of three things. Yeah. Right. And it doesn't sound different

1:08.6

he's checking out. Who are you? Hi, I'm David Bell. I'm a very flattered to be called a comedian

by you. And I flunked Kidney Garden. Oh. Yeah. How? Yeah. How? How? I don't know. No one's, I never

the kids stay back in Kidney Garden. Why do you? Were you too old? Because I know people who do,

1:43.3

I think my sister actually did Kidney Garden twice because her age was like at a weird place

1:49.2

where she could. Well, wouldn't that mean I would have to be too young, though? Because if I stayed back,

1:53.8

yeah, because since it didn't affect, well, I mean, I guess it technically affected my life

1:59.5
