I just want a drum machine

(or a time machine)

And a surf board,

On a lonely beach;

Maybe a couple other things

For sound quality,

I mean really.

All I see is,

All I see is,

Me up in a tree somewhere

I didn't mean to be so

Careful

We're over another Volcano;

I didn't mean to put that there

Oh,

Where are we anyway?

___

What are you doing?

Galloping.

Horse.

I thought we were running away from Skrillex.

Oh, we are.

Wait.

Well then, what are you doing?

I'm calculating.

Calculating; I thought you were galloping?

It is a calculated gallop.

How graceful.

Theoretically.

Huh.

___

“Josh”

Where are you?

Where am I? Where are you?

I thought you'd be in LA right now!

LA? Why would I be in LA right now? I'm hideous!

Are you serious?

Are you? Quit Joshing!

Alright, i'm not Joshing--whose Joshing?

You are--you're Joshing.

Stoppit, I'm not.

Cut To:

Hey Josh.

[Josh is playing a video game. He nods, barely.]

Would you mind doing those dishes?

Yeah, i'll get to it.

[Doesn't.]

____

Where's Dillon Francis?

I haven't seen him.

No one has.

I'm kinda worried about him.

Should we call him?

We should call him.

Dillon Francis, exactly.

So wait, what the fuck is going on?

Apparently, Dillon Francis is missing.

Well, where is he?

Well, honestly, where isn't he?

Excuse me?

You're excused.

I...

Okay, look; First of all--

Agh!

Dillon Francis can't be Nowhere, he's Everywhere.

Okay, what?

Secondly,

Not this again--

Wait, what was I about to say?

Exactly.

Exactly; Dillon Francis.

Who is, where, exactly?

Exactly.

[Dillon Francis is standing, Exactly.)

This is exciting.

Of course it's exciting, it's Dillon Francis.

Yeah, it is.

(It is.)

__

Okay, so they're gathering all the DJs?

They're gathering all the DJs.

Every DJ?

No, just all the DJs.

Oh.

Okay, so--

Wait, what the fuck Exactly is going on?

{Exactly.}

Wait, where Is--

Nobody seems to know.

[Dillon Francis has been in jail for a really long time.]

Oh, no!

Oh, yes! Wait--are we back at ‘Dillonception'

Dillonception?!

I think.

Wait.

What?

Just a minute; What channel is this?

Nevermind!

Nevermind, what? What are we watching.

Nothing!

It's not nothing; what network is this? What are we watching? What is this?

It's, uh--Satelite...Cable...Tesla--uhh…

Uh-huh; Let me see your router.

“Router”, what's a “router”?

AHA, I knew it! you have interdimensional cable.

Nah.

Ah-ha. Now I see. Where did you get this?

I didn't.

Psh, quittit, I know you can get it from Skrillex.

I didn't. It was gifted.

Gifted, how could he “gift” it?

It's not from Skrillex.

Wait, it's not.

Nah, it's not I told you it was a gift, it was gifted.

What do you mean “gifted”? This is extra terrestrial technology; How is this a “gift”

Extraterrestrial? Wait, Skrillex is an alien?

Uh, fucking, duh.

I thought it was just a gimmick.

---

Anyway, I don't know anything about “extraterrestrial technology”, just that it's rare--and i'm not supposed to have it.

What, did all this come in the card attached?

Yeah, actually.

________

What comes with a side of

“I just don't feel like it,”

Is it,

Dillon Francis, or just

Something simple--

What's in it?

What's coming out of the oven,

I wonder if it's muffin's or,

something organic…

I keep panicking and panicking

with Panic at the Disco playing

While i'm getting baked thanking

Satan for making me a no name

As I play for acres and pray

I feel better with a hat on

i'd feel better if my dragon was

Less of a dragon and,

More of a hot blonde with hypnotic

somber somethings, or

Anything magnetic maybe, or--

whatever flavor's yours, or--

Whoever this is for.

I'm on the floor trying to remember

What for, exactly.

SKRILLEX.

Man, I fucking hate Vegas.

Yeah, me too.

I'm not staying here.

Just stay here.

I'm not staying here.

Just stay here!

I'm not staying here.

Just stay.

No!

Hi,

Hows your life?

This is mine.

I was just wondering

If you might

Know what it's like

To die

Like I do

Why

Would I

Lie

Should I

Is there a prize for dying twice, dude?

Or trying to??

Is there something I should do?

Or that I should know?

I don't know if I should go home or not;

I'll probably close the roads--

I'm gonna gooo….

Rain.
