Tina Fey: Yay! Last Saturday, Clone-Aid, a group that believes life on Earth was created by aliens, claimed that they had cloned the first human baby. Here to defend that claim is Clone-Aid President Briggitte Boisselier, and the founder of the Raelian cult, a man known as Rael.
Rael: Thank you, Tina.
Tina Fey: You’re welcome. Now, your group claims to have the first successfully-cloned baby.
Briggitte Boisselier: That’s right, Tina. And she’s just adorable. Her name is Eve.
[ they begin to laugh maniacally ]Tina Fey: So, where is the baby now?
Briggitte Boisselier: Our new home – the planet Earth.
Rael: And Earth wasn’t always our home, Tina.
Briggitte Boisselier: No. We are descended from the Aryan race, sent here 25,000 years ago, and now we have created a new life.
Tina Fey: You two are a couple of old-fashioned nutbirds, I’ll tell you that! Now, where is the baby?
Rael: Well, actually, Tina, she is right here. And we’ve chosen tonight to introduce her to the world. Ladies and gentlemen, the world’s first cloned human – Baby Eve!
[ Baby Eve steps forward – she is the former love child of Angelina Jolie and her brother ]Briggitte Boisselier: Oh, there we go!
Rael: We are still working on a few of the kinks! Say hi! Say hi to America, honey!
Baby Eve: [ makes gurgling noise ]
Briggitte Boisselier: Isn’t she adorable?
Tina Fey: Are you sure this was successful?
Rael: Uh, well.. we’re on TV, aren’t we, Tina!
Tina Fey: The crazy clone people, ladies and gentleman!

Jimmy Fallon: Many psychologists are saying that there is a new crisis of infidelity breeding in the workplace, with people not having sexual affairs, but emotional affairs with their married co-workers.
Tina Fey: [ building the tension ] Do you believe that, Jimmy?
Jimmy Fallon: Do you want me to believe that, Tina?
Tina Fey: [ wantonly ] With every fiber of my being.
Jimmy Fallon: I know you do.
Tina Fey: I knew you’d know.
Jimmy Fallon: I do know.

[ audience applauds wildly ]Jimmy Fallon: It’s great just to be nominated. I’m not gonna win, I’m up against, like, Robin Williams and George Carlin, it’s just an honor just to be nominated. Just, let’s do some jokes!
Tina Fey: [ laughs ] Okay! Alright. [ starts next joke ] President Bush, this week, announced that he is no longer..
[ camera cuts to Jimmy, who begins to think reflectively to himself ]Jimmy Fallon: It does feel good just to be nominated. What if I do win? It’s possible. I mean, those guys have all been around for a while – I’m new, I’m fresh! They’ll cancel each other out, like Robin Williams needs a Grammy.. yeah, right.. please! Hey, guess who’s not nominated – Tina Fey! [ laughs ] Who’s the smart one now, Tina? Did you hear the sarcastic way she said that: [ in Tina voice ] “Jimmy Fallon is nominated..” Yeah, I’ll tell you what I’m gonna do when I win that Grammy – I’m gonna use it to smash those damn glasses she has on. She acts like she invented glasses. Geuss what, Tina – you didn’t invent glasses! I’ll get the research department to find out who did invent glasses, and then burn her with it next week!
Oh, I’ll tell you who else is gonna be pissed off when I win, oh yeah! Mikey Sanders, my old high school archeneny – that ass!

I hope he’s watching – that is, if he got the night off from the gas station! [ laughs ] Fallon! You are on fire tonight! Save it.. save it, buddy.. save it for Grammy Night!
[ cut to Michael Sanders in the audience, also thinking reflectively to himself ]Michael Sanders: I can’t believe I’m here! “Saturday Night Live”! This place is a legend. I wonder if Jimmy will recognize me, his old buddy Mikey Sanders. Of course, I go by Michael Sanders, now that I’ve got that job as Head of the Grammy Committee. I feel bad. I didn’t even listen to Jimmy’s album. But if it’s anything like those party-mix tapes he used to make, I know it sucks. Who puts “Ghostbusters” on twice – in a row? Jerk!
[ cut back to Jimmy Fallon at the Update desk, still thinking reflectively to himself ]Jimmy Fallon: Know who else I’m gonna call when I win? Ghostbusters! [ laughs ] That one always works! Lemme tell ya something: [ singing ] “Bustin’ makes me feel good!” Again, save it, Fallon, it’s gold! It’s Grammy gold! [ sighs ] Geez, when’s Tina gonna be done with this joke?
Tina Fey: [ finally finishing joke ] ..Contraceptive SpongeBob Squarepants.
