Making a Million Dollars In One Night

OK, so he's going to this concert that he's excited about. He has four tickets, one for his ex-wife. And he's on the phone with her. And I know he's on the phone with his ex-wife because he's being super nice and he doesn't want to start a fight at all. You can tell he's bending to everything she says. And then I hear— it's not even on speaker. I just hear her go, OK, so this is an awkward question. I didn't even know about the Arctic Monkeys concert. I didn't know what they were talking about. Vampire Weekend. Oh, Vampire Weekend, sorry. I didn't even know about the Vampire Weekend concert or whatever, but I knew that she was— I knew the next question out of her mouth was going to be that she wanted to see if her new boyfriend can tag along. And Jason goes, yeah, I'm sure that shouldn't be a problem. That'll be fine. I'll get him an extra ticket. Just like that. He said it almost as if he was— fucking excited for this.
