Transcript:
Andre: Ah, peter! I hear you're going out for soccer. Evidently you're unaware of the sport or psycher. Petey: Huh? Andre: Psycher (the P is silent) we play it at every meeting of the future adults of america. The object is to crush your opponent by every means necessary! Ernesto: We use intimidation, sarcasm, deceit, taunts and insulting limericks. You really should give it a try! Petey: Um. Ernesto: There's some kind of rubber ball involved too, but I don't remember why. Petey: Bye, Ernesto!
