Tab Spangler - Happy My test run of Serenity Ranch's new approach was a total success if I do say so myself.

Kirk Want some business advice from a guy who's never run a business?
Tab Spangler - Annoyed No. Is there anyone smarter around or more qualified?
Tab Spangler Like, uh, Rich Texan or Hank Scorpio?
Kirk - Sad Okay, fine. I'll go and get them...
Kirk - Sad Here's Rich Texan and Hank Scorpio.
The Rich Texan *fires gun* Marketing your weight loss technique is way too expensive.
Hank Scorpio Yeah, what you need to do is bring your brand directly to the people. The fat people!
Tab Spangler I know just what to do...
Hank Scorpio - Pleased Is it something evil?! Because I LOVE evil businesses!

Tab Spangler Thanks for that swell advice, team! Now that I'm an insult comic, I can make fun of every Springfielder that's out of shape!
Hank Scorpio - Pleased You ARE evil! My advice was more about how you could become a motivational speaker for your brand...but insult comic?! That's crazy!
The Rich Texan Let's see it, insult comic. Insult me now! Roast me like a Thanksgiving Turkey!
Tab Spangler Oil men are a thing of the past. Solar power is the future!
The Rich Texan That wasn't an insult... You think I don't know about green energy? I keep a diverse portfolio! *fires guns*
Tab Spangler - Sad Hmm, I guess I do need to work on my insulting.
Hank Scorpio You just need someone better to practice on. How 'bout Kirk?!
Kirk - Sad I don't know... I don't really like getting my feelings hurt.
Tab Spangler - Happy Hey look! It's the guy who drives a Prius but paid the $100 deposit on a Tesla just so he can pretend to be one of the "cool" dads.
Kirk - Sad *crying* I'm going to get that Cybertruck, you just wait!
Hank Scorpio - Sad That was more mean than funny. Maybe you should stick to motivational speaking.
Tab Spangler - Sad You're probably right, Hank Scorpio.

Tab Spangler - Happy But it doesn't have to be that way! You have it in you to be your OWN superhero, and I can help you do it.

Comic Book Guy - Angry Give me a break! In real life no one could master kung fu, crime solving, and parallel parking in that short a time!
Comic Book Guy - Sad Trust me! I've tried!

Cosine Tangent - Surprised It's not ironic! I wrote Cthulhu in when I voted!
Tab Spangler - Sad I feel like I lost them.
Squeaky Voice Attendant It happens. That'll be forty-five dollars, by the way.

Milhouse - Sad Aw, man! I was looking forward to Sideshow Raheem layin' down some hard truths.
Tab Spangler - Sad Look kids, the bottom line is you can't succeed in life without motivation, and I got bills to pay at Serenity Ranch...

Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on Tab Spangler's exclamation mark
Tab Spangler - Sad Ah, what's the use? I was a fool to think I could succeed with a business that tries to improve people in this town!
Sideshow Raheem I hear ya, brother. People keep inviting me to their places to speak, and I get tired of running back and forth all over town.
Tab Spangler - Surprised Wait, people actually want to hear you speak?
Sideshow Raheem - Sad Oh yeah. Makes 'em feel "woke". And people like it when I scare their kids into submission. I don't dig it myself, but it pays the bills.
Tab Spangler What if all these people came to you instead of you having to go to them?
Sideshow Raheem - Sad Then I'd be living the dream, man. But what kind of crazy talk is that?

Tab Spangler Thanks for all the advice guys. Now, the retreat costs $10,000 per person.
Hank Scorpio - Sad What? All my funds are tied up in the bond market and the killing James Bont market, so—
Sideshow Raheem - Annoyed You two weren't thinking of not paying, were you?
The Rich Texan - Sad Uh, do you take oil leases?
