Place this clip right after the question about where you were, then follow Elio's excuses with a funny laugh so the group hears the punchline land before anyone can argue back, and keep a short reaction sound ready for the next excuse that gets challenged.

This 22-second clip is the second verse of Elio e le Storie Tese's 'Servi della Gleba', where Elio, cornered by his friends, reels off a string of ridiculous excuses for disappearing, from an exam and feeling unwell to interrupted taste buds, an elbow touching his foot and a father trapped in a car wash. It feels frantic, sheepish and increasingly absurd, like a lie collapsing under friendly interrogation.
