T. Rex: OK, so all that filmgoing blew the budget. It's time for...
T. Rex: ...A BOTTLE EPISODE!
T. Rex: Regular cast only! One pre-existing set! No fancy (expensive) SFX!
Dromiceiomimus: Just dialogue?
T. Rex: Just good old-fashioned DIALOGUE, baby!
Utahraptor: How is that any different from what we normally do?
T. Rex: Oh.
T. Rex: Hmm.
T. Rex: Wait! I know!
T. Rex: It's way more likely to win an Emmy!
