Vanessa's Recital (The Cosby Show)

Vanessa Huxtable pleaded with her father, Dr. Heathcliff Huxtable, to buy her a clarinet. The clarinet cost $245.00. She promised she would practice, but she got bored pretty fast. Vanessa wanted to quit the clarinet. Her father said "Nope! You have a recital in two weeks. You need to practice, practice, practice!" Vanessa said "But, Daddy, I don't want to do the recital! I want to go see Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper!" Dr. Huxtable said "Sorry, Vanessa! You have to do the recital! Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper are dead!" Vanessa said "Why?" Dr. Huxtable said "Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper died in a plane crash on February 3, 1959!" Vanessa said "I don't want to do the recital! I want to go see Alderaan!" Dr. Huxtable said "Sorry, Vanessa! You have to do the recital! Alderaan is gone!" Vanessa said "Why?" Dr. Huxtable said "Because it was totally blown away by Tarkin!" Vanessa said "Why, Daddy?" Dr. Huxtable said "Because Princess Leia wouldn't disclose the location of the hidden Rebel base!" So Dr. Huxtable hired a private tutor, Mr. Hampton, to work with her. All the Huxtable family went to the recital to hear Vanessa play. When Vanessa started playing, Rudy said "Can I leave now?" Vanessa was very stinky at playing the clarinet and she gave her father, Dr. Heathcliff Huxtable, a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad case of the poo-poos!
