[open on stock footage of surfers on a large wave]

[dissolve to a group of young surfers in wetsuits and one middle-aged man, Ted, in a Hawaiian shirt and Bermuda shorts, all gathered on a beach]

Brody: All right, everyone. Thanks for meeting me down here. There’s something we need to discuss, so listen up. Now, you may have noticed that someone in our group doesn’t really fit in and has been ruining our surf sessions.

[the young surfers nod and murmer their agreement]

Ted: Wow, that person sounds totally un-gnarly.

Brody: You’re right, Ted. They’re not gnarly. They’re not gnarly at all. Now, I think we’ve given this person as many hints as we possibly can. But, unfortunately, they still don’t get it.

Ted: What a loser, huh? Who is this guy?

Brody: Actually, he’s in the circle right now, Ted.

Ted: One of the bro-hams? No way!

Brody: Yeah, Ted. One of the bro-hams.

Ted: Oooooh! [makes a diving and sinking motion with his hand] Wipe-out!

Brody: Right. Uh, now, I think the time has come–

Ted: Sorry to interrupt, Brody. But have you ever been out on the ocean, surfing, and you’re getting bodacious, and it’s killer, and you’re having a great time with your bros and it’s gnarly? Has that ever happened to you?

Brody: Yeah, it has, Ted. It’s happened to all of us.

Ted: Oh, cool, radical.

Brody: Now, I know none of us wants to hurt this person’s feelings, but–

Ted: Okay, you know what, we can play this game all day, guys, but we’re clearly never going to figure out who this mystery person is. So I motion that we grab our surfboards, catch some waves, and have a wicked session and be in the tube!

Brody: Ted–

Ted: Look, Brody, before you say anything else, I just want you guys to know that the last couple of weeks have been the best of my life. So I think–

Brody: Ted! It’s you! Okay? We’re talking about you.

Ted: What? Me?! It can’t be me; I’ve been talking this whole time, trying to figure out who it is!

Brody: [nods] Uh-huh.

Ted: Really? This is just shocking. And you all feel this way?

[all of the surfers nod]

Ted: Even you, Dragon?

Dragon: Yeah.

Ted: And you, Slapshot?

Slapshot: Yeah.

Ted: And you, Colossus?

Colossus: Absolutely.

Ted: And you, Weinerman?

Weinerman: One hundred percent.

Ted: Really? All of you?

Brody: We all feel that way, Ted.

Ted: Even you, Buttfish?

Buttfish: Yeah.

Ted: Ugh. Dragonfly, seriously?

Dragon: I already said yes.

Ted: Okay, now, you’re firm on that? And, Slapshot, are you firm?

Slapshot: Yeah, I think we’re all firm.

Ted: Ooh, okay, well, I guess I’ll be on my way. But before I go, would anyone like to come with me? Colossus?

Colossus: No, I’m good.

Ted: Buttfish?

Brody: Ted! Please go.

Ted: Okay, I’m leaving. But before I go, I’d like to hear Buttfish’s answer.

Buttfish: No.

Ted: No, you’re not going to answer, or no, you’re not going to go with me?

Buttfish: I’m not going to go with you.

Ted: Okay. And you all feel this way?

Slapshot: Oh, my God.

Ted: All right, look. I can take a hint. Dragon, I don’t remember hearing your answer. Did you say…

Dragon: Yeah, man, I said no.

Ted: Hey, do you dudes ever feel like you want to surf all the time and be gnarly? I do. I feel like that right now.

Brody: Come on, Ted!

Ted: How about you, Colossus?

Colossus: Please leave.

Ted: Ugh, you guys, come on. I’m not gonna ask The Chick!

The Chick: Get lost, Ted!

Ted: Look. I may not be young and hip. I may not wear the right clothes or know all the cool slang, but–Colossus, you change your mind yet?

Colossus: [scoffs] Are you serious?!

Ted: All right, all right, all right, fine. Well, we better all head out for our last ride. Looks like we got ourselves a nasty swell. I’ll see you bros in the blue room!

[Ted grabs his yellow surfboard and runs from the gathering, going to a freeze-frame when Ted is near the middle of the shot]

  Season 31: Episode 13





05m: Natalie Portman / Fall Out Boy

A Message From the President of the United States

President George W. Bush…..Will Forte
Dick Cheney…..Darrell Hammond

[ open on exterior, White House ]

Announcer: The following is a message from the President of the United States.

[ dissolve to interior, Oval Office ]

President George W. Bush: Good evening. [ audience cheers ] As you may know, I have just returned from a long – and successful – trip to India and Pakistan. I also made a surprise visit to Afghanistan – which no one knew about – until I did it. Of course, I knew about the surprise the whole time – but I never let on. I got in and out before most of the Afghans even knew I was there. Which is unfortunate, because I’m sure if most of them knew I was there, they’d would have wanted to thank me for fixing their country. You’re welcome!

From Afghanistan, I traveled to India, to discuss a major historic nu-cu-lar agreement with the Indians. And, from there, on to Pakistan, where it is widely believed Osama bin Laden is hiding. I had things to discuss with my good friend, Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf. But I also wanted Osama to know something: I’m ready. Any time. Your turf.. or mine. I’ll be waiting.. Texas style!

But I’m here tonight to talk about what’s happening at home, you know? There seems to be a trend out there to find fault with this administration. You know? Myself, in particular, for just about everything, you know? It’s, uh – it’s just not fair. With Katrina, I already admitted I messed that one up! Yuo know? We all know, in the days after the hurricane, I said I wasn’t warned about how bad the hurricane might be, and.. now there’s a tape showing you that I was warned! Michael Brown, the head of FEMA, he warned me. You’ll see it if you watch it. But.. do you also remember when I said, “Brownie, you’re doing a heckuva job!” Everyone had a good laugh at that, but it turns out Brownie was doing a heckuva job! And he did warn me! You know? So, who’s got the last laugh now, huh? The main thing to remember here is: it’s been six months, and there hasn’t been another hurrircane! The hurricanes are on the run.

Now, the security of our nation’s ports. This is an important issue, you know? And I think you should know there’s a good reason we were willing to grant control of so many ports to a company in Dubai, which may or may not have ties to terrorist organizations. It’s, uh.. it’s simple, you know? They outbid the North Koreans.

Now, uh, what about our trade deficit? [ pouts ] I’m getting blamed for this one, too! Huh? Aparently, it’s the worst in history. You know, we’re roughly $7 billion in debt. Uh, but don’t worry, I’ve got a plan. I’ve decided to consolidate all of our debt with one of those debt consolidaton companies. That’s right. We’re gonna go with Ditech. Like me, you’ve probably seen their commercials late at night on ESPN-2. You know, the ones with the guy who says, “Lost another loan to Ditech!” It’s a funny commercial!

My point is this: we’re solving problems, not making them! You know? And don’t even try to blame the Olympics on us, you know? I understand the Olympics were a big letdown, but this isn’t my fault! and, while I’m not one to point fingers, clearly the finger should be pointed at Bode Miller. He was out partying, having a good time, you know, not concentrating. [ a beat ] Been there.

Finally, there, uh, seems to be a misconception that this adminstration has been secretive. You know, we’ve been accused of being secretive about Iraq, about wiretapping, about Dick Cheney shooting a man in the face. I want to be completely open here – he did shoot a man in the face. And, uh, honestly, it happened before. And, for all we know, it’s gonna happen again. But, uh.. Dick has something he wants to say. Dick?

[ Dick Cheney relunctantly steps into frame ]

President George W. Bush: Was there, uh, something you want to say?

Dick Cheney: I’m sorry I shot my friend in the face.

President George W. Bush: [ nods ] And, uh, you know.. if you shoot another friend, will you keep it a secret? [ Cheney is silent ] Di-i-ick?

Dick Cheney: No, I will not.. keep it.. a secret.

President George W. Bush: So, Dick, okay, in the spirit of openess that we are embracing, do you have anything else to say?

Dick Cheney: [ hesitant, but finally ] “Live from New York, it’s Saturday Night!”

TV Funhouse: Belated Black History Moment

…..Dennis Haysbert

[open on title screen: “Belated Black History Moment”]

[dissolve to Dennis Haysbert walking forward on a sparse set with still images from cartoons featuring token black characters]

Dennis Haysbert: I’m Dennis Haysbert. For years, African Americans were reduced to minor roles in children’s cartoons. [dissolve to still from “Josie and the Pussycats,” including Valerie, who is black] Token characters, as they were called, [dissolve to still from “G.I. Joe” with four soldiers, including one who is black] were merely symbols meant to indicate diversity, and entirely inconsequential. [dissolve to studio] That all changed in 1992, when the American Broadcasting Company aired “Token Power,” [he approaches an easel with a still from “Token Power”] the first cartoon with an all token black cast. Finally, the token black was front and center.

[dissolve to title sequence]

Singers: [Franklin, Valerie, and Winston ride in the Token Cruiser] Token power! Token blacks! [the three characters are shown in a split screen with the logo “TP” in the middle] Celebrate the token blacks! [Franklin appears on a colored background] Well Franklin is the darkest friend of Charlie Brown [Franklin swings on a rope and knocks out a one-eyed robot that has grabbed Valerie], and [Valerie appears on a colored background] Valerie’s the Pussycat who never lets you down [Valerie trips a ghoulish creature that is chasing her, Franklin, and Winston], and [Winston appears on a colored background] Winston the Ghostbuster only has a line or two [Winston uses his proton pack to stop a giant green creature from menacing Franklin and Valerie], but when he gets to speak it’s really quite a Negro coup. Token power! [a mad scientists lowers the Tokens into a shark tank, but Valerie throws her tambourine at one of the sharks] Token blacks! Segregation tokens! [the Tokens rush onto a golf course and hold a “TP” flag in one of the holes] Utopia of token blacks! [the Tokens appear in front of their logo]

Dennis Haysbert: [voice over] In each episode, the Token Blacks would attempt to correct racial injustices.

[Valerie plays her tambourines while Winston rests on the couch]

Franklin: [arriving with newspaper] Hey, Tokens, did you hear? The mayor wants to stop the Million Man March because he thinks there’ll be a riot. Good grief!

Valerie: Wow, sounds like the soul brothers need our help.

Winston: [standing] But Tokens, we’re only supposed to be around white people. And off to the left.

Franklin: We’ve taken enough from Whitey. Let’s hit the Token Cruiser. [“TP” logo flashes, and cut to the Tokens in the Token Cruiser and landing near the Capitol in Washington, DC] Good grief, the National Guard!

Valerie: And one of them’s a soul brother.

[Lieutenant Jack Flap from “Beetle Bailey” approaches the Token Cruiser]

Lt. Flap: Hey, Pussycat, you’re sweet like bear meat. When am I gonna get all up in there?

Valerie: I love your natural. [points to his hair]

Lt. Flap: Hey, baby girl. Drop it like it’s hot. Pick it up when it’s cold.

[Franklin takes the microphone from a podium where Louis Farrakhan is speaking, surrounded by Fruit of Islam bodyguards]

Franklin: Everyone, let’s show the honky men why we’re angry!

Winston: I think Elvis put it best. [singing] On a cold and grey Chicago morning…

Tokens: [singing] A poor little baby child is born in the ghetto. [the crowd is stunned] And his momma cried.

[the Tokens begin to choke and the remaining lyrics are unintelligible]

Franklin: Can’t…breathe.

Valerie: Too…many…black…people.

Winston: Must…be…off…to the left.

[the crowd throws trash at the Tokens, who all collapse]

Dennis Haysbert: [voice over] The tokens could always be saved by Bryant Gumbel…

[The CBS eye flies to the Capitol and Bryant Gumbel appears within it]

Bryant Gumbel: Quick, get in the eye!

Dennis Haysbert: [voice over] …who would carry them away in the CBS eye [all four fly away in the eye] and off to the Palm steakhouse.

[Bryant and the Tokens are at a restaurant, surrounded by white people]

Bryant Gumbel: Promise me: no more uptown stuff. Okay, Tokens?

Valerie: We learned our lesson, Bryant. Harlem’s neat, but it sure feels good to be the only black people again.

Bryant Gumbel: Hello? I’m here, too!

Winston: Huh? Oh, yeah!

[they all laugh]

[dissolve to studio]

Dennis Haysbert: Sadly, “Token Power” was ahead of its time, and a huge piece of crap. It was quickly cancelled. But its impact was felt when, in 1993, CBS brought the fully dimensional African American character to children’s television with their cartoon adaptation of “Driving Miss Daisy.”

[dissolve to title sequence]

Singers: [Daisy buckles her seatbelt and Hoke drives the car up into the air, and a blue cat is seen in the car as well] Driving Miss Daisy [the car flies through the air around the Eiffel Tower] all over the world. [a general directs gunmen after Hoke, Daisy, and the cat as they run into a stone structure in a desert] Taking down bad guys [a samurai swings a sword] that’ll make your hair curl. [a mummy comes to life, and Hoke jumps into Daisy’s arms] Driving Miss Daisy [Hoke plays a keyboard; Daisy, tambourines; the cat, drums], who knows where they’ll go? [Daisy and the cat hold onto Hoke as he swings on a vine] ‘Cause anything can happen [an Egyptian pharoh uses a rod shaped like a snake to command cobras while Hoke, Daisy, and the cat slide down the side of a pyramid to flee the mummy before they take off in the car again] on the Hoke & Daisy show! [Hoke and Daisy on title screen: “Hoke & Daisy Show,” and the cat appears and laughs]

[dissolve to studio, with Dennis Haysbert now standing near a still from “The Hoke & Daisy Show” on an easel]

Dennis Haysbert: Regrettably, “The Hoke & Daisy Show” was ahead of its time, and a humongous, steaming bowl of elephant piss. It lasted but one episode, but it paved the way for another brave step when, in 1994, the Warner Brothers’ “Kids WB” introduced the first cartoon highlighting not African Americans, but an all African ensemble, in “Ladysmith Black Mambazo In Outer Space.” [he steps over to a still from that program]

[dissolve to title sequence with African chanting]

Singers: [A rocket takes off with the Ladysmith Black Mambazo on board. A tiny green alien pulls up on the controls. A giant orange alien laughs. The Ladysmith Black Mambazo runs from laser fire across an alien landscape. A green alien with a pink collar on his unifor skulks away with a gold record. The rocket ship is held in palce by a blue field generated by a green ship. A green alien launches the Ladysmith Black Mambazo out into space after trapping them in a transparent tube. An ice-blue alien in a red and royal blue uniform presses a button on a control panel and shoots more laser fire at the Ladysmith Black Mambazo, who run back across the alien landscape in the opposite direction. The members of the Ladysmith Black Mambazo are shown with their names: Misizi, Mthembu, Mazibuko, Jabulani, Thulani, Thamsanqa, Sibongiseni, Abednego, Shabablala. A green singularity appears in front of the rocket ship. The tiny green alien pulls up on the controls and the rocket ship returns to space. The Ladysmith Black Mambazo performs on a stage. The Ladysmith Black Mambazo runs from laser fire across an alien landscape in the same direction as before. An alien with a head that looks like a cucumber attempts to converse with the Ladysmith Black Mambazo, consulting an English to African dictionary. The Ladysmith Black Mambazo runs from a giant yellow alien, fleeing into a cave opening that is smaller than the alien]

Dennis Haysbert: Lamentably, “Ladysmith Black Mambazo In Outer Space” sucked it hard. For “Belated Black History Moments,” I’m Dennis Haysbert.

SNL Transcripts: Natalie Portman: 03/04/06: Larry King Live



 Saturday Night Live Transcripts


  Season 31: Episode 13











05m: Natalie Portman / Fall Out Boy

Larry King Live

Larry King…..Fred Armisen
Felicity Huffman…..Kristen Wiig
Aidan Key…..Amy Poehler
Brenda Shavis…..Rachel Dratch
Jennifer Finney Boylan…..Will Forte
TJ Jurian…..Natalie Portman

[open on title screen: “Larry King Live”]

[dissolve to studio]

Larry King: Welcome back. We’ve been talking to the lovely Felicity Huffman, who is up for an Oscar for her portrayal of a preoperative transsexual in an extraordinary picture, “Transamerica.”

[cut to Felicity Huffman with title: “Undergoing Transsexual Surgery: Felicity Huffman: Oscar-nominated for her role in ‘Transamerica'”]

Felicity Huffman: Thank you for having me, Larry. I had a great time.

Larry King: I don’t think I’ve ever seen a woman portray a man who wants to be a woman quite like that. Not that anyone can touch Julie Andrew’s performance in “Victor, Victoria.”

Felicity Huffman: Well, I mean, who doesn’t love Julie Andrews?

Larry King: Well, you’d be crazy not to. Thank you, Felicity Huffman. Good luck at the Oscars. Tonight, we’re talking about men who have gone under the knife to become women, and women who have done the same to become men. First, identical twins, [cut to a photograph of identical twin girls of elementary school age] formerly Brenda and Bonnie Shevis, now Brenda Shevis and Aidan Key. [cut to studio where a man and a woman are sitting together in the studio, then cut to a blonde woman in the studio] Jennifer Finney Boylan; she was John Boylan [cut to photograph of a man with glasses and a bolo tie] before sexual reassignment surgery at the age of forty-two. [cut to studio] And TJ Jurian [cut to an androgynous person on a video link], born a woman, [cut to photograph of TJ as a woman] living as a man, now featured on the show “Transgeneration” [cut to studio] on the terrific gay channel, lah-go. Thank you all for being here.

[cuts continue throughout]

Aidan: Thanks for having us.

TJ: Hi.

Larry King: Now, Brenda and Aidan, you were born identical twin girls.

Aidan: Uh, yes, yes we were, Larry.

Larry King: And now, Aidan, formery Bonnie, you have gone through the surgery, and now you’re male?

Aidan: Uh, that’s correct. But I will say I’ve always identified myself with being male.

[title: “Undergoing Transsexual Surgery: Aidan Key: Born a girl named Bonnie with idnetical twin Brenda]

Larry King: Aidan, that’s a boy’s name? Why not go with a Ralph, or Barney?

Aidan: Uh, I don’t know, I liked the name Aidan.

Larry King: And now, Brenda, you were born female?

Brenda: Yes, Larry. We were both born female.

Larry King: So your sister decided to become a man, and you decided to stay put, stick with what you had down there.

Brenda: Yes. I’m happy being who I am, but my sister was not, and he’s much happier now.

Larry King: So, who is who’s brother?

Aidan: Uh, I’m Brenda’s brother.

Larry King: And now you have a child of your own.

Aidan: Yes, I do, Larry.

Larry King: So, are you the mother or the father?

Aidan: I’m the father.

Larry King: So, you fathered the child?

Aidan: No, Larry. That’s scientifically impossible.

Larry King: But you donated the sperm. [nods]

Aidan: No, that’s not possible, either.

Larry King: Well, congratulations. You look like a super good-looking gay man.

Aidan: Thank you, Larry.

Larry King: Now, Jennifer Finney Boylan.

Jennifer: Hi, Larry.

Larry King: Why the surgery? Why not just buy a long, blonde wig and, say, get a brazier and stuff it with tangerines and call it a day?

Jennifer: [title: Undergoing Transsexual Surgery: Jennifer Finney Boylan: Was James Boylan before surgery] Larry, it was important for me to physically become a woman in order to feel complete.

Larry King: And before you swapped your parts, did you have lesbian experiences?

Jennifer: No, Larry, because I was a man before.

Larry King: And do you ever miss being a woman?

Jennifer: Well, I’m a woman now, Larry. I know it can be very confusing.

Larry King: Confusing? I haven’t been this perplexed since Criss Angel, “Mindfreak,” came on the show and stuck a string through his eyeball and pulled it out of Jane Fonda’s nose. Now, TJ Jurian, where is your penis now?

TJ: [title: Undergoing Transsexual Surgery: TJ Jurian: Born female, has not yet had surgery to become male] I don’t have a penis yet, Larry. I haven’t made the surgery yet. I’m a transmale.

Larry King: So you’re gonna be a woman?

TJ: No, I’m a woman now.

Larry King: So what did they do with your penis once they removed it?

TJ: They never removed it, Larry.

Larry King: Now, wait a minute. You’re going to have two penises?

TJ: Larry, I was born a female, and I’m going to have surgery to become a male.

Larry King: So you’re looking for a penis. Jennifer Boylan, why don’t you give her your old penis?

TJ: I’m not in possession of it any more, Larry.

Larry King: Well, good luck on your search, TJ, but it looks like you may have to stay a woman a little longer.

TJ: That’s all right, Larry. I define myself as a man. I’m just not a man yet, physically.

Larry King: Well, you look like a man, you sound like a man, and the rest of it is none of my business, anyway. That’s what I told George Hamilton last week in the dry sauna. [Jennifer looks puzzledly back at Aidan and Brenda while Aidan looks at Brenda and Brenda looks away awkwardly, and TJ looks askance as well] Thank you for joining us. You’re all terrific people, no matter what’s in your pantaloons. Join us tomorrow. I’ll be talking to Kim Cattrall. Now that lady is 150% woman, I don’t care how many penises you stick on her. That’s it for tonight. Stay tuned for “Anderson Cooper 360,” where his guest will be a gal named Katrina. Good night.

 Saturday Night Live Transcripts


  Season 31: Episode 13














05m: Natalie Portman / Fall Out Boy

Natalie Portman’s Monologue

…..Natalie Portman
Fan 1…..Andy Samberg
Fan 2…..Jason Sudeikis
Fan 3…..Finesse Mitchell
Fan 4…..Kristen Wiig
Fan 5…..Chris Parnell

Natalie Portman: Welcome here, hosting Saturday Night Live. You know, I’ve been in over a dozen films, but I think people probably know me best for my role in the three Star Wars movies.

Fan #1: Ho, ho, ho, ho.

Natalie Portman: Yes, you have a question?

Fan #1: Hum, yes. Funny you mention Star Wars. I have an Episode II specific question.

Natalie Portman: Yeah, go ahead.

Fan #1: Ok. Are we honestly supposed to believe that Jango Fett really really worked hand in hand with Sifo-Dyas in the galactic scenic, to build a clone army on the planet of Kamino?

Natalie Portman: I’m sorry; I get it all the time, you know. Certain kinds of people think that just because I was in Star Wars, I know everything about it.

Fan #1: So you don’t know the answer?

Natalie Portman: Well I begin by saying that Sifo-Dyas never worked directly with Jango Fett and it was Dark Tyrannus who selected the mandolorien bounty hunter after Sifo-Dyas is murdered.

Fan #1: Yeah, I forgot that, I forgot about that.

Natalie Portman: Well, I guess that you also forgot that Count Dooku, who later became Dark Tyrannus, murdered Sifo-Dyas at the order of Dark Sidious none later presented his light-saber to General Grievous.

Fan #1: Never mind.

Natalie Portman: I hope that cleared that up for you. And any other questions? Oh yeah, you.

Fan #2: Yeah, in Episode III, when Obi-Wan is sent to Kashyyk to find General Grievous.

Natalie Portman: Oh, that’s weird because I don’t remember Obi-Wan being sent to Kashyyk to find General Grievous, I remember him being sent to Utapau.

Fan #2: Yah, yah, yah…Right, so he was sent to Utapau, wasn’t it, and he saw Grievous talking to Lott Dod.

Natalie Portman: Excuse me, sir but I think that you’re probably thinking about Nute Gunray. It’s a pretty common mistake. But, what‘s your question?

Fan #2: I, eh… I do not have a question.

Natalie Portman: Does anyone have a real Star wars question?

Fan #3: Yeah, I believe I have a question.

Natalie Portman: Great, what is it?

Fan #3: Star Wars, eh, what is that?

Natalie Portman: You know what? How about no more Star Wars questions, ok? Yeah, you.

Fan #4: You had to shave your head recently.

Natalie Portman: Yeah, it was for my new movie V for Vendetta.

Fan #4: So, it wasn’t for a headlight.

Natalie Portman: No, no, it wasn’t.

Fan #4: I owe my daughter a big apology.

Natalie Portman: Ok, anyone else?

Fan #5: My question is about your first movie The Professional.

Natalie Portman: Great. You know I was actually 11 when I made that movie.

Fan #5: Yes, I do know that. My question is: do you still have any of your wardrobes from that movie? And if so, would you be willing to sell it?

Natalie Portman: Ok, that’s gross, ok. I think that’s about enough. We have a great show: Fall Out Boy’s here. So, stick around, we’ll be right back.
