dence" is a state of moral decline in society often associated with excessive use of drugs and liquor as well as sexual promiscuity (Valhalla is a house where dead bodies were taken in an ancient Scandinavian myth). He’s not ready for your world of compromised values and diminished brain cells that you throw away like confetti. If a person has "compromised their values," they have agreed to do things that even they themselves probably think is morally wrong."Diminished brain cells" are cells that don’t work as well as they should, in this case probably because of illegal drug use. "Confetti" is tiny bits of colored paper that is thrown from buildings during parades. If you harm him in any way, you will meet the voice at the other end of this telephone, and it will not be pretty. "To harm" a person is to hurt or injure them. This is Elaine’s way of telling Russell that he will be in big trouble if he hurts William. "Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid." Goethe said that. "Bold" means courageous, or refers to a person who acts decisively. "Mighty" means powerful. Goethe is a famous German writer. It’s not too late for you to become a person of substance, Russell. A way to describe a person who contributes to society or is perhaps intellectually curious and tries to find answers to great problems. Your mom kind of freaked me out. :: She means well. "To freak out" a person is to scare or disturb them. If a person "means well," they are trying to do what is best for others, even if it doesn’t look that way. A new manager joins Stillwater, the band heads to New York, and Penny almost dies... Well, it seems the rumors are true. The record company has sent a big-time manager to try and talk you into replacing me. A "rumor" is a piece of news that many people hear, but it is unclear if it is really true. "To talk a person into" doing something is to try and convince or persuade them to do it. Bring him in and we’ll send him out on a rail. A dated way to say that they will tell him to leave, in an aggressive or rude manner (the "rail" is a railroad track, which trains travel on). I believe in bands holding on to their roots; Those roots need to be augmented. If a band "holds on to its roots," it remembers where it came from, even after it gets super popular. "To augment" something is to add to it, or to increase it. If you hadn’t run out of your contract in Phoenix, we could have sued over Russell’s hand. "To run out on a contract" is to fail to do what a contract says you are required to do. "To sue" a person is to file an action against them in a court of law, usually in hopes of being awarded money. But you left, negating the contract, forfeiting the deposit. "To negate" something is to make it legally
