Ego Nwodim: Well, this is SoulCycle. You’ll love it.
[Cut to Ego Nwodim and Mark]
I go every lunch break.
Mark: Oh, so that’s where you run off to?
Ego Nwodim: Oh, pass.
[Cut to Cecily Strong]
Cecily Strong: Hey, guys, we are so psyched you’re here for this very special class. It’s SoulCycle instructor additions. Today you’ll be riding with multiple cyclists who are in the final stages of joining the SoulCycle family. Let’s ride!
[Cut to Ego Nwodim and Mark]
Mark: They’re auditions instructors?
Ego Nwodim: Yeah. That’s why the class was free.
Mark: Who did I give $80 to?
Flint: What’s up, what’s up, SoulCycle White Harlem? My name is Flint, like the water. Let’s get those leg muscles going while I tell you what I’m about. I live life with no regrets. Abraham Lincoln died. It didn’t have to happen. Poor guy. If I’d been there I would have stopped it, but I wasn’t. Will you be? Let’s ride!
[Cut to Ego Nwodim and Mark]
Mark: Is he suggesting we’ll save Lincoln somehow?
Ego Nwodim: The instructors only say things to try and inspire you. You’re supposed to move your legs, Mark.
Mark: Oh, yeah.
[Cut to Deacon]
Deacon: Dope, dope, dope, SoulCycle. My name is Deacon. And just a warning, I have an addiction to pushing myself and cocaine. Because I don’t believe in giving up. Check it. I was this close to playing a dead guy in the J. Lo in the movie ‘Hustler’ but I didn’t get it because they didn’t call me in for an audition, but when J. go Lo, I go high! Let’s ride.

Mark: Wow. Using Michelle Obama like that. What do you think?
Ego Nwodim: Mark, you’re sweating but you’re not moving. Pedal!
[Cut to Trix]
Trix: Hey, SoulCyclers. My name is Trix. Here’s my story. In highs school, I was bullied for being too tall, too thin, too pretty. They called me model girl, or, “Hey, model.” But I wasn’t a model. Yet. And how do you think that made me feel?
[Cut to Ego Nwodim and Mark]
Mark: Good?
[Cut to Trix]
Trix: We’re here to lift each other up. So turn to your neighbor and complement one part of their body. Be specific.
[Cut to Ego Nwodim and Mark]
Mark: Toned back.
Ego Nwodim: I am not doing that.
[Cut to Trix]
Trix: And look at me now. My boyfriend is one of the Josh’s from “Million Dollar Listing.” Let’s ride!
[Cut to Deacon, Ego Nwodim and Mark]
Deacon: I am going to put a candle in front of the person I think is doing the worse.
Mark: Me?
Deacon: You have sad eyes, ma’am.
[Cut to Kyle]
Kyle: Damn, they call me Kyle but I’m a girl we’re going to do a little core. Okay, three, two, one and funk the bike, funk the bike, funk the bike.
[Cut to Ego Nwodim and Mark]
Mark: I don’t want to be rude, but I can tell you you’re bad at sex.
Ego Nwodim: Oh, that’s nor rude.
[Cut to Kyle]
Kyle: I didn’t always push myself like this you guys. I got kicked out of scientology because I was too lazy. Never again. Let’s ride.
[Clint walks in]
Flint: May I have this dance? This moment is so much more than us and our beautiful bodies. This morning I googled racism, and guess what? It bummed me out. And then I googled gay racism and that was even worse. You know what I did? I flushed my computer down the toilet, because I don’t need that negativity in my life! Let’s ride!
[Deacon walks in]
Deacon: Mind if I shine? Look, this was been my dream ever since acting was who hard. I put my life on hold last week when I lost my leg because a lumberjack thought it was a tree trunk but after believing hard enough, my leg grew back! Gandhi once said, two roads to versions of wood, I’ll take both. Let’s ride.
[Cecily Strong walks in]
Cecily Strong: Hi. Congratulations. You’re all-stars and you’re officially SoulCycle instructors!
Deacon: Whew.
Cecily Strong: No, no, no. Except for you. Your backpack was full of cocaine.
Deacon: Wow. You went through my bag?
Cecily Strong: Well, I guess we’re bot fired.
