Tim jokes about wanting to secretly rent the Airbnb again under someone else's name for a prank, then turns to accusing Ben and his wife of secretly harboring resentment toward him.
- Tim's revenge prank scheme: rent an Airbnb under someone else's name, throw a party, take photos, post them online with 'can't keep me up' caption.
- In Joshua Tree County, renters must be essential workers—a requirement Tim tried to circumvent by claiming to work for Gavin Newsom, which didn't impress the humorless Airbnb hosts.
- Tim lost his Palm Springs deposit because Duncan ate the couch, and he had also paid to heat the pool.
- Ben tells Tim he needs to fight for what is right and true, and accuses him of harboring suppressed rage.
- Ben claims Tim comes back months later with legitimate grievances he never expressed, having kept his feelings bottled up.
- Tim admits he's bad at being honest, has anger issues, and vapes constantly to keep it all down.
- Ben and Tim have had fights where they've both been angry with each other over the years of working together.
- Ben wants to start the year on good terms because he can't have Tim and his wife trying to kill him all the time.
