Editing Fishsticks (section)

==Behind The Scenes==
*"The whole idea started on a Writer’s Retreat, visiting the Ballard Locks in Seattle- which is this place where you can see salmon jumping."
*From Matt: "On the Writers Retreat, we typed in 'fish dicks' to see if anybody made that stupid joke before. NO ONE had."
*From Matt and Trey: "That whole point of the episode was like: Kanye, get a sense of humor. You seem so humorless about yourself."
*According to Trey: "I’d never used AutoTune before, like Kanye uses.  And I realized if you can actually sing, it doesn’t work -- it doesn’t do anything to your voice. So you HAVE to sing off-key."
