Howard got 'Little Mikey' on the line to discuss his prolific output of Robin parody songs and asked him about his most recent, which is to the tune of Toto's 'Africa.' Mikey said he was inspired "because [Robin] was going on vacation to Africa one time." Mikey continued to display his subdued personality, telling the crew he lived with his aunt and uncle in New York: "I just got a job."
Mikey said his aunt and uncle aren't fans of profanity, so he has to wait until they leave the house to record his Robin-themed parodies. Howard pretended to be puzzled: "You mean they don't like Robin? I can't believe his Aunt and Uncle don't like Robin songs. They must be racist." Mikey laughed, but made sure Howard knew his Aunt and Uncle were not racists.
Mikey noted that he recently took a six-week comedy class at Caroline's, leading Artie to laugh ("I wanna know who taught you.") and ask how much he paid. Mikey said he shelled out $395. Artie just kept laughing. Howard joked: "One show and he'll recoup all that money." Mikey pressed on, plugging Tuesday's release of his original song, 'She Gave Me Blue Balls for Christmas.'
Howard learned that Robin was hosting an event for her painter friend and that half the proceeds would go to charity, leading everyone to speculate that Robin was banging the painter. Howard joked that the charity was really her vagina: "Isn't that that guy you hang around with?" Robin confirmed it was Brendan, a guy she let sit in for the news recently: "He's a friend of mine." Howard laughed: "I'll bet."
Robin claimed the charity was very real--it funds girls schools in Central America--and added that she'd also be visiting Guatemala to survey an area she was working to improve: "I wanna see people that go through this." Howard was shocked Robin would put herself at risk and referenced her minutes-long trip to India: "You're gonna fly into Guatemala and you're gonna freak out."
Robin shrugged off comparisons to her aborted Indian trip: "I was trying to have a regular vacation." Howard laughed at the idea of 'regular vacation,' and continued to speculate that there was more at work ("Are you in love with that guy?" and later, "Are you angling to adopt?") but Robin stonewalled him. Howard went on to attack the event's confusing invitation: "I couldn't tell what you were doing. I swear. It was very involved."
