I haven't seen it either.
Guys, I've got a little sequel to the baton attacks I joked about...mainly because I can't resist working the joke for all it's worth:
Jim enters the building, humming "Let Me Be Your Song." He sees a very shell-shocked Dave, Steve, Kathy and Richard sitting outside the recording studio door, quivering.
Jim: Why, what's all this? Shouldn't you be in there singing?
Steve: We c-can't...
Kathy: Oh, the humanity...
Richard: I'd be safer walking through an alley at night.
Jim: But...I don't understand. And we've got to finish this episode. Go in and work with Phil.
Dave: Jim, we have been lucky enough to escape with our lives. If you had been in there during 'Rev' you would have understood completely.
Jim: I still don't understand. Will somebody please tell me what's going on?
Dave: Maestro, the 'Balsam's Baton Blitz Blues,' please.
(sung to the tune of 'Talkin' Bout Germs')
Dave: It comes from the east. It comes from the west.
Richard: It's coming to get us on each note and on each rest.
Steve: It comes from the front. It comes from the rear.
Kathy: It's coming to get us and it brings all pain and fear.
Richard: It's flying and furious!
Steve: Completely injurious!
Kathy: It'll stab you and jab you to doom!
Dave: One strike and you're gone...It's Balsam's baton!
(door flies open and baton flies out)
(Kathy, Dave, Richard and Steve scream and run for their lives.)
Phil Balsam: Oops! Sorry about that! We'll have to do another take...
Don Gillis: I think you need to chain that baton to your hand, Phil.
Jim: What the hey?
