They (obviously) discuss Mayans and sacrificing virgins. They also talk about the best way to see aliens at Area 51, what it's like to date a substitute teacher, and chain mail child labor.

Amanda pleads with the universe to cast Billy Ray Cyrus as Elvis. Also, can we make a pact to get dads to stop saying "thongs" when they mean "flip flops"?!
