Restaurant Manager: Hey, wait! I think you forgot something.
Harmony Star: Oh, no, mister, it's not me, it's my brother. He does this to me ALL the time.

Restaurant Manager: Do you honestly expect me to believe that?
Harmony Star: I swear, it's true! Oh, hey, look, it's my brother! See? There he is! Hey, Tommy! [runs away when the manager turns to look]
