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.)

(?):

(?):
Hey, put down.

Silence you fools, you believe in progress?

Take that progress and it under a rock.

So at this point in the development of our plot the 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 need is a 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, 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 bolts and widgits painted on their faces by a roving make-up artist, and take up performance positions within the BBC ensemble.)

FZ:
