Fourth Floor Common Room, Thursday Evening, The Barry Gibb Talk Show

[onapalebicycle.livejournal.com]

The fourth floor common room had been transformed. Do not ask how the best talk show hosts ever had found a disco ball to hang from the ceiling, one that showed off their matching white double-breasted pantsuits. They were here to sing about politics and chew bubble gum, and they were all out of gum.

There were chairs arranged in a semi-circle, for the important political guests, brothers Barry Gibb and Robin Gibb (also known as the surviving two thirds of the best effing band ever, the Bee Gees) faced away from the studio audience. As if on cue, Barry and Robin spun around, and began to sing.

"Here we are
In a room full of strangers
Discussing politics
And the issues of the day
Well, I want to talk to you
Though you may not want me to
I'm still gonna talk to you
I don't care what you say

Talkin' it up
On the Barry Gibb talk show
Talkin' bout issues
Talkin' bout real important issues
Talkin' it up
On the Barry Gibb talk show
Talkin' bout politics
In this crazy, crazy town
Oh yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah"

So maybe George and Squall had been gremlin-bit earlier this evening and thought they were washed-up disco superstars now hosting a belligerent talk show about politics. That might be cool, too.

(There will be OCD for this. OCD UP! Come be a guest on the show, or a member of the studio audience, or stand in the back with a camera! JOIN US.)

"I don't remember that," Robin interjected.

He didn't bother specifying which part he didn't remember. That would require too many words.

"Awww man," Freddie said with a pout. Why'd he have to go and swear? Now this was no good for an iCarly clip.

Yes, 'effin' was swearing to Freddie.

The bootlegger was backing down!

"Aw, yeah, that's what I said!! You don't mess with Barry effin' Gibb!!!"

He did a couple of roundhouse kicks that segued into a full-out disco dance. "I beat the bootlegger!" he sang. "Beat the bootlegger! Boot-leg-ger-beatin'! Boot-leg-ger-beatin'! Yeah, yeah!"

"Boot-leg-gers! We will eff them up! Boot-leg-gers! We will eff them, we will eff them, we will eff them ... UP!"

It was never the wrong time for a victory dance. Ever.

Freddie was just going to continue to pout.

This was comedy gold.

Well, maybe if he did some creative audio splicing...
