(The trio protests the interruption, to which Don responds performance of diatonic music (and eating meat) will preclude them from seeing his aura. They argue that diatonic music is good and his electronic music is horse-shit. He argues that diatonic music is too old-fashioned, and that There must be growth! You've got to eat macrobiotic food -- and study astrology! (It is worth noting that, although the plot was my idea, each band member was responsible for generating his own dialog.)

So at this point in the development of our the three talented members of the Mothers of Invention have quit the group to form their own band with a lot of discipline.

(?):
Yeah.

FZ:
Listen what we is a nice disciplined combo!

(This causes the talented trio to quit The Mothers, in order to Form their own band with a lot of discipline. Suddenly, through the magic of stage-craft, their new, disciplined combo (14 members of the BBC symphony) marches on stage, wearing tuxedos, with robot-looking designs painted on their faces. Ian, Bunk and Art put on tuxes, get some and widgits painted on their faces by a roving make-up artist, and take up performance positions within the BBC ensemble.)

FZ:
And so that they would be completely tackished and fit in with the rest of the disciplined combo. The members of the Mothers of Invention receive their initiation into the robot musical world.

This makes me nervous I'm go do some yoga.

FZ:
Meanwhile Dom de Wild under pressure prepares to unwind with some healthy excercises.
