[ Fade out ]Thanks to P-Y for this transcript!
I loved that skit. I’ve also searched everywhere for it. I don’t understand why it has not been included in any Saturday Night Live parodies or ‘best of’. Cheri Oteri was great as Babette. I’ve ordered The Best Of SNL: Cheri Oteri hoping it might be in that one.
