• 71 -- Monty: If you look for neatness, why don't we just get it picked up?
  
• 72 -- Monty: Because there's absolutely nothing to pick up.
  
• 73 -- Monty: Now I'll tell you what I think you're looking at.

• 96 -- Monty: But I've got a... I've got a guy... Are you still there?
  
• 97 -- Police Dispatcher 1: Yeah, I'm here.
  
• 98 -- Monty: I've got a guy on the phone calling me and saying that I've got sawdust all in my yard and he wants me to clean it up.
  
• 99 -- Monty: And he said his uncle told him where I lived.
  
• 100 -- Monty: And then, you come on the phone, so I don't have a clue what's going on, but whatever it is, I sure would like- Is it?
  
• 101 -- Police Dispatcher 1: Yeah, I don't know what causes it.
  
• 102 -- Monty: What I'm trying to say is I can't- Do you have any idea what's going on, who's calling me and telling me that my house needs to be cleaned up on the outside?
  
• 103 -- Police Dispatcher 2: Police, can I help you?
  
• 104 -- Monty: Did you hear that?
  
• 105 -- Monty: Hello?
  
• 106 -- Police Dispatcher 2: Police, can I help you?
  
• 107 -- Monty: Yes, are you in Ramsour?
  
• 108 -- Monty: What police department is this?
  
• 109 -- Police Dispatcher 2: I'm sorry?
  
• 110 -- Monty: What police department is this?
  
• 111 -- Police Dispatcher 2: This is Baton Rouge Police Department.
  
• 112 -- Monty: Where's that at?
  
• 113 -- Monty: What state?
  
• 114 -- Police Dispatcher 2: Louisiana.
  
• 115 -- Monty: I'm going to try to explain to you real quick what's happened, okay?
  
• 116 -- Monty: I got a call, and the guy's called my name, and he said he got my address from his uncle who's on the police department.
  
• 117 -- Monty: This is the craziest call I've ever heard.
  
• 118 -- Monty: So he's saying, your house needs to be cleaned up.
  
• 119 -- Monty: I just moved down, down the street and I just wish you'd get it cleaned up.
  
• 120 -- Monty: I have no clue what he's talking about.
  
• 121 -- Monty: I got the cleanest house on the street, but here's where it's funny.
  
• 122 -- Monty: So he keeps talking and all of a sudden another police department gets on the phone and says, police department, may I help you?
  
• 123 -- Monty: Well, it's a police department in North Carolina.
  
• 124 -- Monty: Then as he's talking and no one comes on and says, this is you, police department, it switches from police department to police department.
  
• 125 -- Monty: So I can't figure out what's going on.
  
• 126 -- LPC: Yeah.
  
• 127 -- LPC: Monty, can you hear me?
  
• 128 -- Monty: Yeah, I can hear you.
  
• 129 -- LPC: This is Hoho.
  
• 130 -- LPC: All right>
  
• 131 -- LPC: Let's put our heads together and clean it up.
  
• 132 -- LPC: You got it.
  
• 133 -- Monty: Um, no, I don't have it.
  
• 134 -- Monty: I'm not paying attention.
  
• 135 -- Monty: Come on.
  
• 136 -- LPC: If you want me to get a cleaner, I can send you the bill.
  
• 137 -- LPC: You don't have to lift a finger if that's what you're worried about.
  
• 138 -- Monty: Whatever you want to do.
  
• 139 -- Monty: I'm not having anything to do with you.
  
• 140 -- Monty: Okay.
  
• 141 -- LPC: Charlie, you're living in La La Land, is what you're doing.
  
• 142 -- Monty: See, you need to understand who you're talking to.
  
• 143 -- Monty: You go from a guy named Monty to a guy named Charlie.
  
• 144 -- Monty: So who the hell do you want to talk to?
  
• 145 -- LPC: I want to talk to you, Monty Myers.
  
• 146 -- Monty: You can't even tell me what my house looks like.
  
• 147 -- LPC: You don't even know what you're talking about, all right?
  
• 148 -- Monty: Don't you understand how stupid you are that you won't tell me what my house looks like?
  
• 149 -- LPC: Do you want me to come down and get nimble with you?
  
• 150 -- Monty: Well, come on.
  
• 151 -- Monty: Come on.
  
• 152 -- Monty: Boom, boom, boom, bye!
