I told you hiding a camcorder in the popcorn bucket would work.

Frannie's reaction to George's "stretch move" was one for which he was totally unprepared.

Being that this was the first time that the classic, cut a hole in the bottom of the popcorn tub, move had actually worked he couldn't help but elicit a smile.

After a rocky start to the date, he knew she was the one when she admitted an unflinching love for the films of Friedberg & Seltzer.

Obviously inspired by Justin Timberlake, George updated the epic "Dick in a Box" sketch to "Buttery/Salty Dick in a Popcorn Tub." George was delighted to receive such an enthusiastic response, but unfortunately, he failed to notice that upon sizing up the kernels inside, Frances was laughing AT him and not with him.

Perhaps drinking half your weight in tequila is a bad idea before watching Schindler's List.
