* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible - Bobby Black had given his [[PlotCoupon compact disk]] to Zuzu Petals before his death. Zuzu, of course, listened to it. She later says it's good, describing it as being very "avant-garde," and proceeds to imitate the "music." She is unaware that the CD is actually a ''computer'' disk.
