Crow T. Robot:
You know Joel, that old grandpa guy sure was nice to the teenager from outer space by letting him stay in the apartment without having him pay a rent until he got work. A real life Landlord would never do that.

Tom Servo:
Why yes, things that happen in the movies are different from what happens in real life.

Joel:
Right tom, so from our "Look at the Lighter Side Department," we'd like to introduce a new segment called Reel to Real. Check it out, move aside, guys. In reel life...

Tom Servo:
You are offered free room and board until you can pay off your rent.

Joel:
And in real life...

Joel:
In reel life...

Joel:
In reel life...

In reel life...
