Say it with us
Highly quotable.
Yeah, why do you think I call her the Yellow Baron?
I want you to invite me over because you mean it, not because I said something about it.
You have to ask me when I'm not expecting it. It means more.
The premise
Here’s the bit.
Cloud Pony and Air Dragon fly in formation, and every time Cloud Pony calls for help with an enemy on his tail, Air Dragon bails him out and collects an "I owe you one." Tired of the running tab, Air Dragon floats a different way to settle up: a dinner invitation for him and his wife. Cloud Pony offers one on the spot, but Air Dragon rejects it as pity and insists it only counts if the invitation is spontaneous and sincere. Each fresh emergency call brings another botched attempt to invite him at the wrong moment, until Cloud Pony finally asks at an unexpected time and gets a yes, only to find the next bogey waiting.

Falling back into formation. Let's all keep lookout for the MiGs about 1,300 feet below. I've Mayday! Mayday! I got a bogey on my tail. I don't know where this guy came from. He's riding me good. I need your help.
- 00:20
Air Dragon (Rick)
Sit tight, Cloud Pony. I'm en route.
- 00:23
Air Dragon (Rick)
My dogs are barking. I need backup.
- 00:27
Cloud Pony
Thanks, Air Dragon. I owe you one.
- 00:33
Air Dragon (Rick)
Sure you do. Yeah, that's right. You owe me another one, actually.
- 00:41
Cloud Pony
Yeah, you're a good pilot and a great wingman.
- 00:45
Air Dragon (Rick)
Seems like every time we get airborne, there's a bogey on your tail and I bail you out.
- 00:51
Cloud Pony
Well, I guess.
- 00:53
Air Dragon (Rick)
It seems like every time I do, you say, thanks, Air Dragon, I owe you one.
- 00:58
Cloud Pony
Well, I owe you one. I do the same for you.
- 01:01
Air Dragon (Rick)
Well, I never get bogeys on my tail. I just seem to keep them off yours.
- 01:06
Cloud Pony
Well, you're a better pilot than I am.
- 01:08
Air Dragon (Rick)
And clearly, a better friend
- 01:10
Cloud Pony
What's that supposed to mean?
- 01:13
Air Dragon (Rick)
Well, you're a great cook
- 01:15
Cloud Pony
What's that have to do with anything?
- 01:17
Air Dragon (Rick)
Well, did you ever think that getting me back doesn't have to be shooting bogeys off my tail?
- 01:23
Cloud Pony
What?
- 01:24
Air Dragon (Rick)
You know my wife Ling Pai and I are lonely We like some company every now and then We can't have kids
- 01:29
Cloud Pony
I didn't know you and Ling Pai couldn't have kids
- 01:31
Air Dragon (Rick)
Yeah, why do you think I call her the Yellow Baron?
- 01:35
Cloud Pony
I thought it was an aviator thing
- 01:37
Air Dragon (Rick)
No. Maybe you owing me one could be paid off by a nice sit-down dinner for the little lady and I.
- 01:43
Cloud Pony
Oh, well, that's no problem. Do you two want to come over for dinner sometime?
- 01:47
Air Dragon (Rick)
No, not now. I want you to invite me over because you mean it, not because I said something about it. I don't want your pity. The Baron and I aren't desperate.
- 01:57
Cloud Pony
Oh, no. Air Dragon! Mayday! Mayday! I got a bogey on my six! I got a bogey on my six! I need your help, buddy!

- 02:09
Cloud Pony

Yes.
- 02:49
Cloud Pony
Man, I was wondering if you and Ling Pai would like to come over for dinner tonight.
