[Banana Joe starts a recording and runs into frame playing an air guitar]

Banana Joe: Babababababababananana! Banananananana!

[The shot changes to a splitscreen showing two versions of Joe both singing and dancing]

Banana Joe: Bananana! Banananana!

[Both Joes begin to clap as the shot slowly divides into multiple versions of him peforming different actions]

Banana Joe: Banananananana! Bananana! Banananananana!

Banana Joe (At the same time throughout): Banana! [6x]

[The song restarts. Joe rips off his peel and spins it around in the air. As he does, his father peers into the room]

Banana Joe: Banana! Banananana!

[Bob runs into the room and joins in]

'Both': Bababananana! Bababananana! Bababa—

[Realzing Bob is there, Joe stops]

Banana Joe: [Gasps, spoken] Dad! Get outta here!

[As Bob laughs and runs out, Joe throws his peel at him. Then, realizing he is now nude on camera, he turns to look at the screen and covers his mouth in shock. The short ends]
