In “Collaboration,” Nadja and Laszlo revive their playfully raunchy musical act (sample title: “Hoop Skirt, Poop Skirt”) for an open-mic night at the behest of Colin Robinson, who correctly predicts it will be an agonizingly awkward experience for the audience (except for Colin, who has a feeding frenzy). When the crowd turns on Nadja and Laszlo, the day is saved when they play “‘The Seafaring Song’ from 1792”—which, in a joke that ties into a running gag throughout the episode, sounds remarkably like the Beach Boys’ “Kokomo” from 1988.
