Man: Hey! You two! How can you let kdis see you drinking like this? Captain Victorious: We're in a bar. Kids aren't allowed. Man: Yeah, well, my son was in here last night and he saw you! Captain Victorious: How did your son get into a bar? Man: I don't know - he had a fake I.D. Ralston: How did he get a fake I.D? Man: Probably one of his friends from school. Ralston: So your son and his friends are running around going to bars with fake I.D.s and you're upset that we're drinking? Man: But you're influential to them!! Ralston: Well, I guess if somebody has to be held accountable for your children, it should be a superhero and cartoon bunny. Man: Who else is there? Captain Victorious: Have you tried pinning it on the nanny?
