After reviewing a bizarre, occult-themed mood board, he satirically incorporates its dark elements into the airport's design, sketching out features like its remote location, confusing layout, gargoyles, and the infamous demonic blue horse statue, all while narrating his absurd creative process.

Transcript excerpt

Why would you agree to design another fucking airport? Whatever. I did one, you got this. How hard could this be? Okay. So if Denver is here, how about we put the airport over here in fucking Kansas or something? I don't know. I should take a look at this mood board the developers sent. Alright. What is what is this? Fuck. Okay. I think I understand. The exterior of the airport will look like teepees, and the interior will look like the construction of a highway. Travelers can access one of three terminals via this convenient monorail system, and once they exit, I guess they can begin their two and a half mile death march to their gate. You can have this cool carousel at baggage claim for ski and snowboard equipment and that'll be the perfect place for the, gargoyles. Finally, let's welcome travelers to the airport with a symbol of safety and tranquility to calm their nerves. Perfect. This is perfect. This is perfect.
