GUNN: Morning friends and neighbors. Ooh, are those the tickets? You got 'em?

ANGEL: Well, I got to the ticket place and...

GUNN: I'm paying you back. This one's on me.

FRED: Morning.

GUNN: Mahta Hari is the tightest band in LA. You guys are gonna be trippin' out.

ANGEL: The only thing is...

GUNN: Look, I said I'm good for it, man. Don't have to worry about dippin' in the Connor college fund. The time I saw the Mahta Hari at the Troubadour they where the (reads tickets) Blinnikov World Ballet Tour. What's going on?

ANGEL: I was trying to tell you. I got to the ticket place and boom! Tonight only!

GUNN: But - you got ballet on my Mahta Hari tickets.

ANGEL: This is the Blinnikov World Ballet Corps.

CORDELIA: He's been saying that like it has meaning.

ANGEL: This is one of the premier companies in the world. And they're going Giselle! It's their signature piece.

GUNN: This is all like some horrible dream.

WESLEY: I think I've heard of them. Very ahead of their time.

ANGEL: Oh, yeah. Yeah. I saw their production of Giselle in eighteen-ninety. I cried like a baby. And I was evil!

FRED: I-I think it sounds exciting!

WESLEY: Yes.

GUNN: No. No! This is not Mahta Hari. This is tutus, and guys with their big-ass packages jumping up and down. This is just... I will never trust you again. The trust is gone.

CORDELIA: Oh, get over it. Do we get dressed up?

ANGEL: Of course.

CORDELIA: I'm in.

ANGEL: Guys, seeing real ballet live it's... it's like another world. Gunn, these guys are tight, and you're gonna be trippin' out.

GUNN: Don't be usin' my own phrases when we lost the trust.

CORDELIA: Come on, guys. Working day, cases to solve.

GUNN: Okay. But I'm not still paying, right. Because this is... this is... It's like a nightmare.
