@pftompkins.bsky.social @scottaukerman.bsky.social The most important line in the show to understand who Hill truly is however is, when his con is exposed and Winthrop says to his face sarcastically “what band?”, Hill replies, almost to himself, “I always think there’s a band, kid.”

@pftompkins.bsky.social @scottaukerman.bsky.social When the instruments show up on the Well Fargo wagon, he always skips town leaving everyone disillusioned w/ useless instruments and no band.

@pftompkins.bsky.social @scottaukerman.bsky.social The con is that he convinces the town that he is a renowned band leader, that the town is in “trouble”, and that forming a band w/ him as the leader will save their youth. This con gets everybody to buy.

But that's just YOU, the Mike Tyson of improv?
