Bobbie: Oh, well he's just walking in right now. I'll tell him great news, Joey. I just got you the lead in an Industrial Safety video!
Joey: What? No, no, no, no. I don't wanna do anymore stuff like that. Look, Bobbie, I came to LA to take the next step in my career, and I feel like I'm taking a step back. You know, you got me doing these lame auditions, lousy commercials, that Mystery Dinner thing at Ted Danson's house? I need things to change. Now.
