{{TB|Assistant? This is how he treats his stars?!}}
{{Tapped Out Marge Icon|Confused}}
{{TB|You're not a star. You're in charge of craft services, making sure there are breakfast burritos for everyone.}}

{{TB|Suit yourself. Marge, bring in the replacement chimp.}}

{{Tapped Out Krusty Icon|Bored}}
{{TB|I don't care what your schmendricks do.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon|Confused}}
{{TB|Does Krusty seem different to you? He's barely yelled at anyone since we started shooting. It's so unlike him.}}
{{Tapped Out Marge Icon|Thoughtful}}
{{TB|He does seem more relaxed. Maybe it's a new directorial technique?}}
{{Tapped Out Krusty Icon|Bored}}
{{TB|Ok everyone, that's a wrap for today.}}

{{TB|Surprise me.}}
{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|You're kosher so human blood it is. Milhouse, you're up!}}

{{Tapped Out Bart Icon|Annoyed}}
{{TB|He canceled my Red Cross delivery! And we have the big bloody fight scene to shoot!}}
{{Tapped Out Marge Icon}}
{{TB|The only silver lining is since we've hardly used any props or effects, we're coming in under budget.}}

{{TB|Under budget? Dear God, no!}}
{{Tapped Out Marge Icon|Confused}}
{{TB|But isn't that a good thing?}}
