the frank and fritzy show

EPISODE 30

Remarkably, Frank has something in common with a 90-year-old nurse--and it's a mind- and body-altering experience he describes in glorious detail. And since Fritzy's heart is enlarged (while something else has apparently shrunk), Dr. Condo recommends a similar ritual cleansing for his buddy. (6:26)

Fritzy: Very healthy.

Frank: And, uh, she takes this here, she takes about six high colonics a year. And she takes this here, uh, almost every other day.

Fritzy: Uh-huh.

Frank: And she says, "You gonna see how you feel, your insides."

Fritzy: Yeah.

Frank: "You're gonna feel all bloated when you take it, but the next day when you go to the bathroom," she says.

Fritzy: You're brand new.

Frank: They talk, they knock this down, they knock. And you should see the people that go there. All healthy fuckin' people. Americans. All the people, like, from television. Movie actors. All healthy people.

Fritzy: You gotta keep quiet when you do things around there. You can't say a fuckin' word.

Frank: They knock it down, "Don't do this, ba-beep, ba-bop." In the meantime...

Fritzy: Meantime, you're dyin'.

Fritzy: He looks it.

Frank: [UI] healthy.

Fritzy: He looks it.

Frank: He thinks he's a very healthy man, he thinks. He [UI] he was drinkin' that fuckin', uh, distilled water. I got the book over here about water. Distilled water, the worst thing to fuckin' drink.

Fritzy: Why?

Frank: Huh?

Fritzy: Why?

Frank: It's in the book here. I got the nutrition book. You know the brown book?

Fritzy: It tells ya, it tells ya the worst water to drink?

Frank: It's no good to drink because there's no nutritions in it.

Fritzy: Well, you don't need nutrition. You just need fluids.

Frank: No, no, no. You gotta have the water, everything is in there.

Fritzy: Yeah?

Frank: There's the water with the nu, all the, the, the nitrates in there and this and that there and the salt and this. That's all to your body. All those things.

Fritzy: Hmm.

Frank: When you drink distilled water it's no good for your whole system.

Fritzy: I'm lookin' at that girl, what's her name? Principal?

Frank: Who?

Fritzy: Principal. What's that, Victoria Principal.

Frank: Yeah?

Fritzy: I got Channel 9 on.

Frank: You'll be strokin' it pretty soon.

Fritzy: I'd like to. I'm looking at her. I didn't know she was so beautiful. Look at her.

Frank: Hah?

Fritzy: I wish it could come up.

Frank: That's a good time, a good sign.

Fritzy: Nah, it ain't up.

Frank: It's a good sign the, the pipe is comin' to life that means.

Fritzy: Nah, not yet.

Fritzy: It'll come back.

Frank: I gotta take you for the fuckin' high colonic. You gotta go.

Fritzy: Once I get straightened out, it'll take me a week to get this shit out of my system, number one. I take the test, once I get a clearance on them other things and it ain't that so bad, I hope so, ya know?

Frank: And when I went for my test the guy put the hose up my ass.

Fritzy: Yeah.

Frank: "Geez, marone, you're really cleaned out inside. This thing went through you like so fast."

Fritzy: Yeah, huh?

Frank: I says, "Well, I took a high colonic the day before."

Fritzy: Took another one.

Frank: A high colonic I took. In other words, Monday I went for a high colonic.

Fritzy: Yeah.

Frank: Tuesday I went for that, ah, what Reagan took, the test of my stomach.

Fritzy: Oh.

Frank: Ya understand? So when he put the thing in me there was no shit in there. I was all fuckin' emptied out.
