Someone was silly enough to send Bill on a business trip. He and Pete take the time to talk about traveling to Washington, D.C. (both when you're 13 and when you're an adult), the Washington Metro, carrying a huge suitcase, the bureaucratic inefficiency of travel, Penn Station and Port Authority, the strangeness of New Jersey Transit, walking across a field in a strange state and a lot more.
