Oh GOD. Andre and the boys of Staindance are in the editing room cutting the video. Andre says that he hates videos because they're such a farce, and they so obviously try to project an image that the group does not match. You mean like the image that Dead Can't Dance is trying to project -- like they're musicians? Anyways. Andre tells us how the aim of the video was to show the musicians as they really were. We see bits and pieces of the video, which is your standard long-haired-rockers-with-no-money-in-the-city stuff, except there is one part where Andre's neighbor spits out his dentures and sucks them back in, which is cool, in a twelve-year-old boy kind of way.
Back in the loft. Everyone's eating dinner. Shot of Heather eating dinner. Cut to Eric, whose hair is so greased back, it looks like it was carved out of Crisco. Julie is looking around nervously. Eric asks how was everyone's weekend. Norman says, with a slight sneer, "It was fucked." Heather cracks up. So does Kevin. Eric looks pissed. Andre asks Eric what he did. Eric starts telling them that on Friday, he and Julie got a ride down to his house. Right then, Kevin cuts this enormous burp. A really nasty, horrible burp that sounds like a barge cutting through the Panama Canal. Kevin, with a smirk, says that it was better than an orgasm. Hmm. I'm torn here. Anything that pisses off Eric is Good in the Book of Manimal. However, Kevin is a schmuck and that belch was actually pretty rude. Eric busts out in his best Lifetime Television voice, "You know what I find interesting about this group of people here?" and gets all pissy about being interrupted.
Eric's one-on-one. He says that he's fed up with the loft, and that he always tries to start a conversation and no one's into it. Hmm. Maybe that's because...oh, I don't know...because you're a narcissistic twerp?
Back to the dinner table. Eric tells everyone that he's ready to leave. Heather, with Norman sitting on her lap, says, "Good-bye, Eric. You need any help packing?" Eric looks like his feelings are pretty hurt. Heather keeps telling him, "You want to go home? Go!"
