Act Like Bernie Knows [1.1]

 * [We see Zachary and Clementine sitting on the couch, Zachary is reading an issue of Computer Gaming World, while Clementine is watching Alvin and the Chipmunks (1983). 10 seconds later, though, a loud version of Act Like You Know by Fat Larry's Band plays]

 * Bernie: (singing) Yeah. You ought to know! Act just like it. Act just like you know. Whoa! You just ought to know. Yeah. When you're feeling down and low, and you need a place to go. Oh! Just pick up your shoes and go... To the hottest place you know. When you can free your mind, and have a good time. Just step right up- Hurry, hurry, hurry! -to the fire line. Act like you know! This is your way to shine! (Tia walks in angry and turns off the record player) Act like you know! There's only... stars... in the... (stops)

 * Tia: I'm not talking about some media store in a mall, I'm talking about how many times you played that record!
