| 0:13.4 | They've taken care of us all week long. |
| 0:15.8 | And yes, it is a meat Friday, courtesy of Don's Prime. |
| 0:19.3 | Great restaurant here at Fountain Blue. We got steaks, mac and cheese with potatoes. Cream spinach. Who has it better than we do? Nobody. Morale is high. Fritzie's here. Seton's here.
