Hall: Yeah, it's a real Broadway show. Therapist: Huh. Fun. Scarecrow: Can I chime in here? Because I think I could provide some clarity. Hall: Who are you? How'd you get in here? Scarecrow: Great questions. I'm the living manifestation of your anxieties. Therapist: Which ones? Scarecrow: I know, right? But no, just the ones about the TV commercial. Hall: It's not a TV commercial. Scarecrow: What? Therapist: It's a web site. Hall: No, it's a live Skittles musical ad performed in a Broadway theater. Scarecrow: I thought this was an actual ad on the game. Hall: You're a scarecrow. Scarecrow: Excuse me? Therapist: We do not use those kind of labels in thie office. Scarecrow: I've never scared a crow in my life. Hall: Why is this so confusing to everyone? Therapist: Michael, nobody here is judging you. We just think you make terrible career decisions.
