Theme Song: “Girlfriends talkin’ ’bout guys and stuff! Girlfriends talkin’ ’bout cute guys and clothes! Girlfriends Talk Show!”
[ dissolve to Morgan and Kyra on set ]
Kyra: Oh, my God, hi. [ waves ]
Morgan: Hi! And welcome to “Girlfriends Talk Show”.
Kyra: I’m Kyra to the max!
Morgan: And I’m the most Morgan I can be right now.
Kyra: And we’re BFFs.
Morgan: Yeah. We’re such BFFs that we finish each other’s…
Kyra: Awesome.
Morgan: …Sentences.
Kyra: Totally.
Morgan: Well, we have a great show for you. We’re doing it all on our own today.
Kyra: No, we’re not. I invited Trevor Masterson.
Morgan: You what!? He’s, like, the cutest boy in school. How could you do this to me?
Kyra: Awesome. Let’s bring him out.
[ Trevor walks on set, waving to everyone before sitting down ]
Trevor: Hey. Hey Kyra, hi Morgan.
Morgan: Oh my God, he knows my name!
Trevor: Yeah, of course I do.
Morgan: [ kind of hyperventilating ] Aaaaahhh!
Trevor: You have a really cool show. I don’t know if I’m, I mean, I don’t know if I’m *that* cute, though. I have been working out lately. [ he clumsily tries to show off his arm ]
Kyra: Yeah. [ Morgan starts sort of nervously gaping and swallowing ] Morgan, your mouth is wide open. Why are you making that face?
Morgan: Aaahhoooohh… [ she awkwardly raises her arms ] I guess I was just yawning. Because I’m so chill with whatever’s happening right now.
Kyra: Trevor’s on the school soccer team and in the male a capella group called ‘Fourtisibros’. Morgan goes to every show ‘cus he’s her secret crush.
Morgan: No he’s not! Kyra! Why would I go to someone’s show just because they’re, like, super foiiine.
[ Trevor smiles at Morgan and she laughs a bit nervously ]
Kyra: Whatever. Why don’t you do one of your songs for us, Trevor?
Trevor: Uh yeah, sure. But, I mean, it might sound kinda weird without the other guys here. [ he steels himself and sings in a low-pitch ] Baaaaaaaaaaa… You don’t know you’re beautiful.
Kyra: That’s nice.
Trevor: It sounds so much better with all the other guys. [ he shrugs ] I mean… big difference.
Kyra: So awesome. Okay. First topic.
Morgan: [ pulls up some fuchsia tights ] Fashion tights!
Trevor: Parties.
Kyra: [ pointing at Trevor, matter-of-fact ] Parties.
Morgan: What? When did you guys change the topic?
Kyra: Yesterday.
Morgan: [ dismayed ] How do you guys even know each other so well?
Kyra: I met Trevor at Tara’s party.
Trevor: Yeah, it was radical. We played spin the bottle and I kept making it land on Becky Weathers.
Morgan: Becky Weathers? She’s a witch with a “b” in front! She’s always taking unflattering photos of me and texting them to my phone when she knows I have very limited texting!
Kyra: Yeah. Morgan has a fave five family plan. It just has her mom’s number, me, her dad, Domino’s Pizza, and 911.
Trevor: Why is 911 in your five faves?
Morgan: Um, I don’t know. Maybe because I’m allergic to bees. I mean, it’s not their fault. I’m just, I’m always reaching for them. [ she mimes “reaching for bees” ]
Kyra: Awesome.
Trevor: That’s so weird. I love it.
Morgan: You do?
Trevor: Yeah.
Morgan: Um, you know there’s a study somewhere that uh, weird people are the best at romantic bed time for private, under the sheet, fantasy moments. [ she bobs her head and sticks out her tongue a bit… possibly trying to look sexy ]
Kyra: What are you doing?
Morgan: I don’t know!
Kyra: Morgan, what are you even talking about? That’s not for you. Where did that even come from?
Morgan: I don’t know! I think I might be entering womanhood *right now*!
Trevor: [ claps his hands and laughs ] That’s hilarious! You’re so much funnier than Becky Weathers!
Morgan: [ surprised and hopeful ] Really?
Trevor: Yeah! You know I feel like I could hang out with you all day and laugh. And then just go see her at night and, like, have a make-out sesh.
Morgan: …What kind of hell am I in right now?
Kyra: Awesome. Next topic.
Trevor: Selfies!
Morgan: Miniature Christmas villages! [ she pulls out a miniature Christmas village ]
Kyra: No. Selfies. We changed that.
[ Trevor picks up his cell phone and tries to take a selfie ]
Morgan: What? Why? My self isn’t so self-involved. Also my phone doesn’t even have a camera.
Kyra: Oh wait, Trevor. Remember that selfie Tara took that we laughed so hard about? [ she starts giggling ]
Trevor: [ laughing ] Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then she accidentally sent it to her school bus driver. I remember.
Kyra: That was *so* funny.
Trevor: We laughed so hard about that.
Morgan: [ moving into the frame to join Trevor and Kyra ] Ahahahaha! Oh man, Kyra. Remember when we went to Panera and I accidentally dropped my sandwich and all the ingredients went everywhere?
Kyra: Yeah.
Morgan: Yeah, remember how hard we laughed at that?
Kyra: I remember the people that worked there laughed and I just watched you clean up your sandwich. It made me sad.
Morgan: God. Kyra, can you just please work with me! I’m not like you. I’m fighting for my life out here! You *have* a boyfriend!
Kyra: I know. And my boyfriend’s older. The other day he asked me to go sit at a fountain and eat a to-go box of fully loaded beef nachos. While he watched with his opera glasses from a nearby restaurant. When I finished my nachos, he drove by in a car and threw a note out the window. It said “great job”. [ shakes her head in amusement ] My boyfriend’s crazy!
Trevor: Sounds kinda cool to me.
Morgan: Trevor, I love you!
Trevor: What?
Morgan: Oh my God, what have I done!?
Kyra: Awesome. Well join us next time. Later, bye!

Vet Nurse 2: Now, where it says “pet status”, I’m gonna need you to write the word “dead”.
Vet Nurse 1: And then just right next to that “dead” where it says “Do you know this?” You’re gonna fill in the bubble under the “yes”.
Anthony Denvers: Well, where is she now?
Vet Nurse 3: She is either on top of or below a dead turtle.
Anthony Denvers: Oooh, my Tiffany!

Vet Nurse 1: Okay well, hang on. Let me look at the notes. [ grabs the clipboard ] Okay it says “he is responding to the medicine and doin’ well” so…
Vet Nurse 2: That’s good but there is that big orange sticker that says “dead”.
Vet Nurse 1: Oh yes.
Vet Nurse 3: Well, which one do we go by?
Vet Nurse 1: Okay so the sticker always overrides the note, so he is dead.
Vet Nurse 3: He is dead. Okay, if it makes you feel any better he had a real peaceful look on his face right before he exploded.
Black Horse Owner: This is the worst animal hospital in town!
[ he storms out ]

Veronica: Oh, hey! You must be Devon, Josie’s younger brother?
Devon: [ he shrugs ] Maybe I am.
Veronica: I’m Josie’s friend Veronica, I was in the neighborhood and I was wondering: Is Josie home?
Devon: [ lip- synching ] “Josie’s on a vacation far away Come around and talk it over!”
Veronica: Oh, that’s okay! I can come back. I mean, you’re a sophomore and I’m a senior; what would we even have to talk about?
Devon: [ lip- synching ] “So many things that I want to say You know I like my girls a little bit older!”

Veronica: Excuse me?!
[ two of Devon’s friends pop thir heads out of adjacent windows ]

Veronica: Oh. So your friends are here, too. I’m sure you have TONS of friends.
Devon: [ lip- synching ] “I ain’t got many friends left to talk to.”
Veronica: Well, the truth is: You don’t need a lot of friends, just as long as you have a couple of real good ones.
Devon: [ lip- synching ] “Nowhere to run when I’m in trouble.”
Veronica: I get it. I wish there was someone there for me, too.
Devon: [ lip- synching ] “You know I’d do anything for you Stay the night but keep it undercover!”
Veronica: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Keep it undercover”? Okay, do you just want a piece on the down low? Uh-uh! That is NOT what I’m about, Devon, and I doubt that your sister Josie would approve of that attitude, either!

Devon: [ lip- synching ] “As you’re leaving, please, would you close the door? And don’t forget what I told you.”
Veronica: [ lip-synching with her friends ] “Just ’cause you’re right, that don’t mean I’m wrong Another shoulder to cry upon.”

The woman who was featured on the HealthCare.gov homepage said this week that after the laws flawed launch, she became the victim of cyberbullying. But thats the risk you run when you choose to get into the glamorous, high-stakes world of stock photo modeling.
Cecily Strong: The Obama Administration revealed this week that only 26,000 people bought health insurance on the federal HealthCare.gov site in October. Which isnt that surprising, because Americans refuse to buy any kind of insurance without first seeing a funny commercial.
This week, we found out what happens when a Canadian finally stops being polite, and starts getting real.
Toronto Mayor Rob Ford, on Thursday, denied claims that he offered to give a female staff member oral sex, saying that he is happily married and quote got more than enough to eat at home. Though after that press conference, Im betting the kitchens closed.

Every year, this Christmas mess starts earlier and earlier! “Trick or treat!” “Merry Christmas!” It shouldn’t be that damn fast! There’s something in the middle! It’s called… Giving Thanks!

It’s 60 degrees outside, and I already gotta decide which Black Christmas movie I want to see! Craftsman holiday… Black nativity. ENOUGH!!
Cecily Strong: Okay, so what should we do?
Mr. Senior: I’ll tell you what I did — I took matters into my own hands and filed this special report!
Cecily Strong: Okay. Let’s take a look.

A school bus driver in Maine was suspended after she allegedly put Hello Kitty duct tape on students mouths. Although, the most disturbing part of this story is that Hello Kitty makes duct tape.
Seth Meyers: This week, a Pennsylvania newspaper printed a retraction of an opinion piece that ran in 1863, which panned Abraham Lincoln’s historic Gettysburg Address. Here now to comment: The author of that negative review, the Patriot & Union speech critic Jebidiah Atkinson.
Jebidiah Atkinson: [ sternly ] Thank you for having me, Seth!
Seth Meyers: So, uh, Jebidiah — you were actually underwhelmed by President Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, calling it “silly” and saying that “history would soon forget it.”
Jebidiah Atkinson: Correct.
Seth Meyers: How do you feel about the newspaper’s retraction?
Jebidiah Atkinson: I stand by my words! They’re COWARDS, Seth! In fact, my first draft was much harsher, and I was told to tone it down!
Seth Meyers: Wow. So what was the first draft?
Jebidiah Atkinson: Would you like to hear it?
Seth Meyers: Sure.
Jebidiah Atkinson: It goes like such: [ reading ] “Four snores and seven yawns ago, this reviewer watched the President’s speech at Gettysburg and, let’s be honest, Abe, you dropped a real Lincoln log! You know what the real Gettysburg Address is? 1-1-5 West Boring Street! And then, there’s the venue: a field! Great acoustics! Sorry if I couldn’t hear you; I was in the second row!”
Seth Meyers: Wow! You didn’t like it at all!
Jebidiah Atkinson: I did NOT! What’s to like? “The world will little note nor long remember what we said here” — oof! With dialogue THAT clunky, I’m surprised he was shot by an actor! [ the audience groans ] Oh, was that too soon? Get over it, he’s on the 5!
Seth Meyers: You really didn’t like Lincoln?
Jebidiah Atkinson: Not at all! Too lanky, big nose, and don’t get me started on that beard; What was her name, Mary Todd?
Seth Meyers: Tell me — Have you reviewed any other speeches over the years?
Jebidiah Atkinson: [ excited ] I’ve reviewed ALL the speeches! And I’m NOT a fan!! Patrick Henry: “Give me liberty or give me death.” DEATH, please! [ he tosses his note card, which bounces off his face ] NEXT!! John F. Kennedy! I’ll tell you what you can do for my country: a-wrap it up! [ he tosses his note card ] NEXT!! Martin Luther King! Yuo have a dream? That’s great! I had a train to catch, and I missed it! [ he tosses his note cards over the desk ] Next! Jesus! The Sermon on the Mount: “Blessed are the meek?” More like, Blessed are the DEAF because they don’t have to listen to this big, great poem! And GREAT location, Jesus! The Mount? Any reason we had to climb half-an-hour to hear this?! Also, nice fan base! I’ve got a leper on one side of me, and a PROSTITUTE on the other! Oh, and Bravo on the food — There’s nothing like MOUNTAINTOP FISH on a HOT day!! [ he tosses his note cards ] NEXT! Oh… wait. I’ve got one on FDR’s Pearl Harbor speech, but I probably shouldn’t do it after the audience were such BITCHES about the John Wilkes Booth joke.
Seth Meyers: [ laughing ] Yeah, I wouldn’t do it!
Jebidiah Atkinson: I might do it! I’m GOING to do it!
Seth Meyers: Alright…
Jebidiah Atkinson: “You know what day will live in infamy? December 8th, 1941, when FDR gave a speech that was SO boring ASS!!” [ laughing ] I think I misquoted myself!
Seth Meyers: I’ve gotta say, that’s not your best written one!
Jebidiah Atkinson: That was a rough draft! I could have used a couple Kamikazees after that!
Seth Meyers: I think you were a Kamikazee!
Jebidiah Atkinson: I’m not, you know. It’s so hard being a critic, but I love it, Seth!
Seth Meyers: Yeah!
Jebidiah Atkinson: Yeah, it’s so much more fun than my last job.
Lady Gaga: Hello! Thank you to R. Kelly, thank you to Lorne and the cast. I’m so happy to be here. My album “Art Pop” is out now, but first, we’re gonna go parrrrrrrrrr-tyyyyyy! Bye!
