    This episode is one of the most underated ones of the season. Dave and John Mayor are hilarious together and Quest love just makes the sketch
    better. The scene in the restaurant is hilarious when John Mayer plays a hardcore guitar solo and everyone in the restaurant starts fighting. The barbor shop seen is also hilarious when John plays the guitar and everyone in it(either black or Latino) just stare at him. The freestyle performed during the scene is another laugher because its so ridiculous. The next sketch, three daves, keeps the laughs coming with each Dave shown. The Musical performance is another performance gone overlooked. Dave is hilarious in this performance of Different Strokes. I could watch it over and over.moreless
