And then me and Ryan are gonna take turns describing how we would go about serving her. We're gonna buttle. We're gonna buttle the crap out of it. Curt, what's your butler name?

Yeah, I would not have a butler named Ryan. Like, come on. Right. That would be insane. I would like to be Lord Grievous. I think you're gonna say Lord Weirdo. Okay, okay. All right, and I am Jeeves. You're Jeeves, so I can ask Jeeves? You can ask me anything. Love this. Okay. Do you have a scenario for us?

Ryan Sansone?
