- Does it need anything?

What will it do?

- He's fine. He'll just watch.

So, what are we doing here?

- Just a regular haircut, please.

It's gotten kinda bushy. - [bell rings]

- Hi, Gerry. - Annie?

Mmm.

- Mm, maybe I'll try someplace else.

- That was Gerry.

Fits like a glove.

[grunts] Very small, tight glove.

Is your horse stuck?

Pony, are you stuck?

Actually, tell him no.

I'm just pretending to be stuck.

We need the chair.

How is this your fourth hair salon?

We'll be done in no time. - GERRY: Mm-hmm.

- Save me a seat!

No, two seats!

Uh, I'll just sit in the aisle.

He'll have to wait outside.
