And he crashes into uh... a tree and it explodes, sending him flying into a condor!" after many laughs, George says the comic is going to be a masterpiece.

With Dressy saying "It's making me bored and angry at the same time. Is 'borngry' a word? I'm 'borngry!' " Harold says that's not good.

Goofs[]

- Or he's a reverse tomboy.
- In the scene where Captain Underpants cries after the Vimpire bites him, none of his tears manage to touch his face and turn him back into Mr. Krupp.
