February 2, 1999

NARRATOR: At this week's "Johnny" cast party.
JOHNNY: Well, Winston, Jay, it's great to have you guys aboard.
WINSTON: It's gonna be fun, Johnny.

BEN: Ain't THAT the truth.

BEN: Isn't that right, Fratman and Sorority Girl?
SORORITY GIRL: Teehee! I'm shallow!
FRATMAN: I'm drunk AND shallow!
LABEL: Look kids! Irony!
