Schulz confronts Williams about being elusive and distant in their friendship, arguing that Williams uses humor and deflection (like wearing corn shirts) to avoid genuine intimacy.

The group discusses Burning Man experiences, noting the barter system for food (sandwiches) and the presence of Victoria's Secret models, while Williams mentions an unreleased documentary he made there.
