BLONDE MEGAN: That's the ugliest mess of code I've ever seen. What on Earth are you working on?
[LAUGH TRACK]
RANDALL: It's nothing weird this time, I swear.
[LAUGH TRACK]
RANDALL: It just looks bad because it's a spreadsheet formula.
RANDALL: Which assembles a Haskell function.
[LAUGH TRACK GETS LOUDER]
BLONDE MEGAN: Uhhh.
[LAUGH TRACK CONTINUES TO MOUNT]
RANDALL: For parsing HTML.
BLONDE MEGAN: Oh my God.
[LAUGH TRACK EXPLODES. I MEAN JUST UPROARIOUS GUFFAWING FOR AT LEAST TWENTY SECONDS]
RANDALL: It's OK! Nothing depends on this.
[LAUGH TRACK]
BLONDE MEGAN: That wall isn't load-bearing. Does that mean we can just throw hammers at it?
RANDALL: I mean...
[LAUGH TRACK]
BLONDE MEGAN: Wait. Crap.
[LAUGH TRACK, CROSSFADE INTO APPLAUSE]
Yep, that's perfect.
