MB 66: We’re Going To Mars

Guess what came in the mail today? What? My space passport. Oh I’m so jealous. On your behalf because, mine came in the mail yesterday, ha ha ha. Red link, I’m going to… Space! Space! Where do you wanna go? You wanna go to the moon? You wanna go to Venus? As you and I both know, I’ve been a big fan of Mars bar since I was a little boy. That’s a well-documented fact that everybody knows about me. You checking out Mars flights on space X then. But they are pretty expensive. I can’t afford that. That’s Mr. Bee’s money. [Blonde Hair guy] And what’s this? I’ve heard of this. Steerage X. The economy commercial spaceflight company. Yeah, they’re great. No frills fairs. Whereas other Mars flights will lump everything under one big ticket, Steerage X breaks everything up so you’re only paying for what you actually want. Kinda sounds like an ad. Yeah, cause I was reading the ad. Oh, okay. Two steerage X tickets to mars please. We’re going to Mars. Yeah It looks like we have to pick our luggage option. Wow, look at how much more it costs to check a bag. Do we really need to check a bag? I mean, I can fit everything in a carry-on probably. Yeah it’s a really long journey to get to Mars, but I mean, once we’re there, I’m sure we can just buy like extra outfits or something. Yeah. Like suits. It looks like we also have to pick our seats. Dibs on window seat. You sure? Oh, is it that much extra for a window seat? Actually it costs extra for any seat. Crap We don’t really need seats. Do we? Is that an option? Yeah. Right here, you just opt out of a seat. Do it. Now we’re really saving. Okay, how about meals? We have to select our meals. I’ll just bring snacks. The flight takes four months. I’ll bring a lot of snacks. Okay. Oxygen? What? Do we want Oxygen? That also costs extra. Can we bring our own? Doesn’t say. Let’s risk it. No oxygen for us. Done. Done. It’s asking if we want to pay for something called EP insurance. Never get the insurance, it’s a total scam. Not falling for that. And purchased. Red link going to… Space! Space! I guess seats would have been nice. Yeah, I’m surprised no seats at all was even an option. But I guess with no gravity, there’s a lot of extra floating space. Attention passengers! Seems we are on a collision course with surprise asteroid. But if you purchased EP insurance, please proceed to the front of the shuttle where you will be led into your escape pod. EP means escape pod. See, I told you always get the insurance. I thought it was a scam.
