## Brad Whitaker

* [narrating] Here's a question for you. What do kids need more, a father or a dad? What's the difference? The way I see it, darn near anyone can be a father... [video of copulating rhinos] ...but not everyone has the patience or the devotion to be a dad. As for me, I've always wanted to be a dad. Let me tell you, I love it! Yeah! [driving] And I love my Ford Flex. It treats me to a smooth ride, and you know what? It didn't break the bank. Room enough for the whole family. [making sandwiches in the kitchen] Yes, I love being a dad. And I love these two adorable little rays of sunshine. [Dylan and Megan walk in]

## Dusty Mayron

* It looks like we got our self's a dad-off, Brad.

## Dialogue

    Dusty Mayron: So the King raised his mighty sword and rained steel down upon the Step King.
    Brad Whitaker: But the Step King blocked it with his shield. And swung his cat o'nine tails into the King's smug face.
    Dusty Mayron: Which the King easily brushed aside like the feather of a gull. And then the King did counter with a barrage of slashes and thrusts so fast and precise the Step King had no way to party.
    Megan, Dylan: Yay!
    Dusty Mayron: But he did. He did. He parried all of them. Easily. It was no big deal.
    Megan, Dylan: Aww.
    Brad Whitaker: Then he grabbed the King's sword right out of his hand and smashed it over his knee.
    Megan, Dylan: Boo!
    Dusty Mayron: That's when the King pulled out a pump-action Mossberg shotgun!
    Brad Whitaker: Which is completely anachronistic. So if we're gonna be doing any time period, then the Step King just happened to be wearing Kevlar body armor.
    Dusty Mayron: Concussion grenade!
    Brad Whitaker: Hand grenade.
    Dusty Mayron: Rocket launcher.
    Brad Whitaker: Missile launcher.
    Dusty Mayron: Air strike.
    Brad Whitaker: Nuclear strike.
    Dusty Mayron: Black hole.
    Brad Whitaker: God.
    Brad Whitaker: The step-king has had enough of the king's BULLSHIT!
    Dusty Mayron: Brad said a bad word.
    Brad Whitaker: You built all this today? With my tools?
    Dusty Mayron: Oh, no, you can't build a treehouse with a tampon, Brad.
