[ PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA stands next to his scheduling aide KATIE ]

President Barack Obama: So what’s next on the schedule, Katie?

Katie: As per your request, Mr. President — Senators Snowe, McConnell,and Baucus are here to discuss health care.

President Barack Obama: That’s great! You know, Katie, this is the closest we’vecome to reform in this country. I just need everyone to behave.

Katie: So, you gonna get angry with them?

President Barack Obama: Now Katie — no. You know I don’t get angry. I find itworks better to kill them with kindness. Send them in.

[ Baucus smiles. ]

President Barack Obama: Sen. Snowe, you’re a Republican who crossed party linesto support the Baucus bill and you have a voice!

[ Snowe nods and winces a bit. ]

President Barack Obama: Sen. McConnell, as the Senate Minority Leader, I want youto have a voice too. Now, uh, what can I do to bring the rest of theRepublican Party into the conversation.

Mitch McConnell: Well, uh, Mr. President, maybe I can explain theRepublican position — it’s not that we don’t want health care to fail. Wedon’t! We just want you to fail. And defeating health care reform is thebest way to do that.

[ President Obama clenches his jaw. ]

Mitch McConnell: Because if you fix health care, that would be a bigvictory for you and that’s bad for us.

[ The President rubs his neck over and over. ]

Mitch McConnell: With that said, I could see us supporting health care butonly if you switch your position to AGAINST it.

[ The President shakes violently. ]

Shakira performs She-Wolf

…..Gerard Butler
…..Shakira

Gerard Butler: Ladies and gentlemen — Shakira.

Shakira: [ singing ]
“S.O.S. she’s in disguise
S.O.S. she’s in disguise
There’s a she wolf in disguise
Coming out, coming out, coming out

A domesticated girl that’s all you ask of me
Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy
The moon’s awake now with eyes wide open
My body’s craving, so feed the hungry

I’ve been devoting myself to you Monday to Monday and Friday to Friday
Not getting enough retribution or decent incentives to keep me at itI’m starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office
So I’m gonna go somewhere cozy to get me a lover
And tell you all about it

There’s a she wolf in your closet
Open up and set her free
There’s a she wolf in your closet
Let it out so it can breathe

Sitting across a bar, staring right at her prey
It’s going well so far, she’s gonna get her way
Nocturnal creatures are not so prudent
The moon’s my teacher, and I’m her student

To locate the single men, I got on me a special radar
And the fire department hotline in case I get in trouble later
Not looking for cute little divos or rich city guys that just want to enjoy
But having a very good time and behave very bad in the arms of a boy

There’s a she wolf in the closet
Open up and set her free
There’s a she wolf in your closet
Let it out so it can breathe

S.O.S. she’s in disguise
S.O.S. she’s in disguise
There’s a she wolf in disguise
Coming out, coming out, coming out

S.O.S. she’s in disguise
S.O.S. she’s in disguise
There’s a she wolf in disguise
Coming out, coming out, coming out

There’s a she wolf in your closet
Let it out so it can breathe.”

Gerard Butler’s Monologue

Ninjas…..Fred Armisen, Will Forte
Christine…..Kristen Wiig

Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen — Gerard Butler!

Gerard Butler: Thank you! [ he waves the applause on ] No, no! Thank you! It’s GREAT to be here hosting “Saturday Night Live”. This is, uh — it’s actually my first time hosting, which means I’ve now hosted more than ANY OTHER SCOTSMAN in “SNL” history!! [ the audience cheers ] YEAHHHH!!! WAHOO!!!

You know… as an actor, I’m primarily known for two types of film roles: There’s the kind where I wear a shirt, and the kind where I don’t. So, in the kind where I don’t, people are usually trying to kill me — like in “300”. [ the audience cheers ] But in the kind where I do wear a shirt, I’m usually doing something a little more sexy — like in the film “The Phantom of the Opera”, where I played the Phantom. [ the audience cheers ] So, tonight… I’d like to show you that I’m not just an action guy, that I also have a sensitive side, with a song from my favorite shirt-wearing musical.

[ piano music begins to play ]

[ singing ]
“Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defences.”

It’s actually a lot better than I thought!

Gerard Butler: “Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour.”

[ a warrior sneaks up behind Butler, but he knocks the warrior down with his own sword ]

Gerard Butler: “Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender…”

[ two more warriors run forward; Butler steps out of their way and lets the warriors collide into one another, then he strikes them with a sword ]

[ Butler continues to sing, as a pair of ninjas appear behind him; He swings his arms back and knocks both ninjas to the ground, then he knocks down a third ninja who attempts to sneak up on him. ]

[ suddenly, Christine appears in mid-chorus ]

Christine: [ singing ]
“Close your eyes start a journey through a strange new world!”

Together:
“Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before!”

[ suddenly, Christine whips a dagger from her bosom and attempts to kill Butler, but he manages to wrestle her to the ground as he finishes his song ]

Christine: Take your shirt off!!

Gerard Butler: NO!!

Christine: DO IT!!

Gerard Butler: NO!!

[ he seizes the dagger from her hand and shoves it away from the stage ]

Gerard Butler: [ singing ] “… the darkness of the music of the niiiiiiiight!!”

We’ve got a great show for you! Shakira is here! So stick around, we’ll be right back!

[ Butler and Christine continue to spar as the scene fades ]

Scottish Rebel 2…. Bill Hader
Scottish Rebel 3…. Bobby Moynihan
French Princess…. Jenny Slate

[Poster of Mel Gibson’s epic “Braveheart” of William Wallace holding a sword]

Announcer: “Braveheart”. The timeless tale of William Wallace. Scotland’s greatest hero. And now this classic tale told again but from the perspective of William Wallace’s younger brother, David.

[poster of David for “Daveheart”]

[David and his band of rebels gather around on Scotland’s high plains]

David: Ok. Gather around. Now, I just returned from talking with those English bastards. And they say we’re outnumbered. [disapproving grunts] They say they have superior weapons.[more disapproving grunts] They told me we would be fools to fight them. So, here is what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna get the hell out of here before we get killed.

Caption: DAVEHEART

Announcer: “Daveheart” The story of Scotland’s biggest coward. When history needed a hero, it knocked on the wrong door.

Scottish Rebel 1: So, you’re saying we should surrender?

David: I’m saying that on the count of three we should run off in different directions. They can’t catch all of us, can they? If they do catch you I recommend to pretend that you’re English. So, let’s practice. Everybody. [English accent] “Hello, governor. Fancy a cup of tea?” All right. Now you guys. Come on, let’s hear you.

Scottish Rebel 2: But years from now when we lie down in our beds, won’t we wish we had fought on this day?

David: No. No, you’ll think “What a comfy bed. I’m glad I didn’t die covered in mud”. You’ll say “Thanks, Daveheart”. That’s what you’ll say.

Scottish Rebel 3: How can we surrender?! The English lords deflower our virgins brides on their wedding nights!

David: First of all, none of your wives are virgins on their wedding nights. There are six girls in our village and like a hundred guys. So, no one is a virgin. Now back to business. We need to run away and we need to run away fast.

Someone from the crowd: Coward!

David: Coward?! Coward?! Ha! I resent that! [scared shitless] Oh, my God! What’s that?! [a goat] Oh, sorry. False alarm. It is just a goat. I thought it was a dragon.

[cut to various of David’s scared faces in battle]

Announcer: Some men fear death. Some dishonor. Daveheart was afraid of the dark and loud noises. A tale of cowardice in a time of courage. A man who despite a shameful attempt to flee was still captured and jailed.

[David is chained to the wall in a English dungeon. A pretty princess visits him.]

French Princess: They are going to torture you.

David: Oh, don’t say torture. I can’t piss myself any more than I already have, ok? I mean, I’m pissed out!

French Princess: I have brought you something. It will numb the pain. [shows a little bottle]

David: Oh, yeah. I want that. And give me a lot. I have a low tolerance for pain.

French Princess: You must be strong.

David: I can do that. Or, better idea. We switch clothes and then you get executed and I pretend to be a beautiful French princess. How is that?

French Princess: No. That will not work.

David: Of course it will work. I mean, our kilts, it will work.

French Princess: You will have to live as a woman with my husband.

David: [crying] I would rather live as a woman than die like a man! [girlie scream] Aaaaahhh!!! Dragon!! [a goat is next to the executioner]

Stelios: Uh, excuse me! King Leonidas! Uh, real quick before we go into battle. A lot of us have been wondering about that “promise” you made a while ago.

King Leonidas: [ recollecting ] Oh. Right. Yeah. I know. Uhh — well, about a year ago, I promised to rescind Sparta’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy. And I still intend to do that — at some point. But now’s not really the time.

Stefanos: It’s NEVER the time, Leonidas!

King Leonidas: There’s a lot going on right now! We’re in a WAR, if you haven’t noticed! The economy is bad… and, what does it matter, anyway? We are the GREATEST army ever assembled! [ nonchalantly ] I mean, it’s not like any of you are gay.

[ all of the soldiers shift their eyes and look at one another ]

Titos: Ri-i-i-i-ight.

King Leonidas: I mean, look — [ he steps forward ] take Astinos. Astinos, who designed our wonderful uniforms. [ he puts his hand behind Astinos’ head ] Are you telling me you’re gay?

Astinos: Are you asking for yourself, or a friend?

[ Leonidas chuckles heartily ]

King Leonidas: Oh, you’re funny. [ he steps over to Titos ] And Stefanos… and Titos. [ he puts his arm around Titos’ neck ] Inseperable friends. Now, when Stefanos joined this army… you took him under your wing.

Titos: [ he glances at Stefanos ] I did.

King Leonidas: You could almost say Stefanos is… is like a son to you.

Titos: [ coyly ] Oh, please, don’t it like that!

King Leonidas: Every night, you two walk in the woods together for hours. Now, imagine how awkward one of those walks would be… if one of you turned out to be gay.

Stefanos: Yeah, that would be awkward if ONE of us was gay!

[ Titos laughs feyly ]

Warrior: Leonidas is RIGHT! Look, I’m as STRAIGHT as they come! Adn I wouldn’t be able to fight if I thought soem gay guy was checking out my body!!

[ the other Spartans look at one another knowingly ]

Stelios: Yeah, I wouldn’t worry about that!

[ the Spartans chuckle among themselves ]

King Leonidas: Look, please! Put yourself in my position. I have public opinion to keep in mind, okay? Now, 40% of Sparta considers homosexuality an illness.

Stefanos: Well, 40% of Sparta doesn’t believe you were born in Greece.

King Leonidas: [ dumbstruck ] Ha! I have a borth certificate! [ he holds up a stone tablet that reads: “Leonidas – 3/14/506 BC – Sparta” ]

Stefanos: We’re NOT fighting until you make up your mind!

King Leonidas: [ he throws his birth table to the ground ] Aye. It seems I have no other choice! I didn’t become leader of an army this TOUGH — this AGGRESSIVE — this, uh — now, what’s the word I’m looking for?

Spartans: FIERCE!!!

King Leonidas: Exactly! FIERCE!! I didn’t become leader of an army this FIERCE by clinging to my popularity! So as of today, I declare Sparta’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” ban officially repealed! Yes! so, if you’re gay, feel free to raise your hand — PROUDLY! And publicly!

[ the demi-shirted warrior glances around awkwardly as all of his fellow soldiers slowly raise their hands high ]

King Leonidas: [ smiling ] Okay… okay… I know you all want to support your fellow soldiers, but seriously: who here is ACTUALLY gay?

[ everyone raises their hands high, including the demi-shirted warrior ]

King Leonidas: Really? Everyone? [ nervously ] Even you, Stelios?

Stelios: [ he nods ] Yeah!

King Leonidas: [ nervously ] So, when you oil me up before battle…?

Stelios: [ he shrugs ] No strategic value! Just wanted to get my HANDS on ya’!

King Leonidas: [ now ill ] And the leather sheath you made for my penis?

Stelios: Just… needed a reason to measure it!

King Leonidas: [ he pinches the area between his eyes ] And all the times we had sex?

Stelios: ALSO gay reasons!

[ music rises ]

King Leonidas: Well, alright! You’re STILL the greatest army on Earth! And if we DO live to see tomorrow, I’m sure we’ll have a good laugh about this in the bath house! [ he freezes ] Oh! The bath house! [ he smiles ] Okay, this is all starting to make more sense. But, TONIGHT!! WE DIE!! IN HEEEEEEELLLLLLL!!!!

[ the soldiers cry out and rush the camera to a freeze-frame ]
