Speaker A:I mean, since before most of our grandparents figured out how to use a microwave.
Speaker A:First of all.
Speaker A:Retiring from what?
Speaker A:He's a cartoon.
Speaker A:What's he gonna do?
Speaker A:Finally take off the earring and go find himself?
Speaker A:Go on a soul searching journey to discover he's actually Mr. Slightly Dusty?
Speaker A:Let's be honest, this is a 100% publicity stunt.
Speaker A:Nobody retires from cleaning products.
Speaker A:You don't see the bounty guy holding a press conference.
Speaker A:After 45 years of absorbing spaghetti sauce, I'm stepping away to spend more time with my paper Towel family.
Speaker A:But Mr. Clean retiring is hilarious.

Speaker A: rmanent Cruise vacation since: Speaker A:Can you imagine Mr. Clean's retirement party?
Speaker A:The Swiffer wet jet gives a speech.
Speaker B:Mr. Clean taught us that no stain is too tough.
Speaker B:Except for grape juice.
Speaker B:We don't talk about the grape juice.
Speaker A:Then the magic eraser shows up late.
Speaker B:Like, I'm sorry I'm late.
Speaker B:I was removing permanent marker from a toddler.
Speaker A:How old is Mr. Clean anyway?
Speaker A:So 70 years of service means he started cleaning in the 50s, which means that.
Speaker A:And he was old enough to clean it.
Speaker A:This guy has seen some things.
Speaker A:He survived shag carpet.
Speaker A:He survived avocado green kitchens.
Speaker A:He survived that era when everyone smoked inside like the house was a chimney contest battleground.
Speaker A:I suppose if anyone does deserve to retire, it's Mr. Clean.
Speaker A:Can you imagine how many bathtubs that man has stared at?
Speaker A:After 70 years, I'd be like, you know what?
Speaker A:Maybe a little mildew builds character.
Speaker A:And his physique is impressive.
Speaker A:Why is he so ripped?
Speaker A:He's not lifting weights.
Speaker A:He's lifting sponges.
Speaker A:And who works out that hard to clean a countertop?
Speaker A:I mean, if I scrub for five minutes, I could have a snack and a lie down.
Speaker A:But he's fighting grime like it's in the octagon.
Speaker A:And he always wins.
Speaker A:So Mr. Clean going to retire?
Speaker A:Look, he.
Speaker A:They're just going to reimagine him.
Speaker A:He'll come back younger.
Speaker A:It'll be Mr. Clean 2.0 with a backstory.
Speaker A:But, you know, I guess that's.
Speaker A:That's just part of the deal.
Speaker A:You again?
Speaker A:You know, he's coming back.
Speaker A:His bald head gleaning in 4K as he whispers to a dirty stovetop.
Speaker A:You thought I was done.
Speaker A:I mean, but what if he's serious?
Speaker A:What if he really is retiring?
Speaker A:I wonder what he plans to do in retirement.
