So, you're fine with the plants?
That was quite a scene back there.

Who'd have a problem with plants?
I'll go the back way.
I just wanted a less scenic route.

How are we gonna spend

Your place is plantless, right?

You won't get to see my new tent, it's so cute!
It's got just enough space for a bed...and a master bed,
and a bathroom, and a kitchen, and wheels to drive it around!

Repping it like the cave men, ugh, you have to be there!

Hey, I've got an idea!
It's called emersion therapy,
we did it when my dad developed a fear of luggage.
- So I just change the station real quick
to The Garden Network?
- And then change it back so fast he doesn't notice.
The next time, you'll wait a tiny bit longer,
