James Lipton…..Will Ferrell Drew Barrymoore…..Kate Hudson
[Fade in: Intro to “Inside the Actors Studio]
[Fade in: James Lipton, staring at the audience]
James Lipton: When one thinks of the gratest all-time films made by mankind, in this century or in any other… one name keeps coming up again and again and again and again. That, of course, is the great cinematographer Gregg Tolland. [audience applause] He cannot be here tonight because he is dead. Ha ha ha. But a face that he would have surely filmed is here with us tonight. Please welcome the wonderful, incomparable Drew Barrmoore.
[Drew comes in from off screen]
Drew Barrymore: Thank you. [shakes James’ hand] Oh, my god, it is so good to be here. It’s so magical. It’s so magical.
James Lipton: In 1982, a film was produced. A film that made not a little amount of money but in fact a great deal of mney. That film was “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.”
Drew Barrymore: Oh, my god, yes, yes.
James Lipton: You played Gertie, the precocious child who when she screamed at the E.T. sent a message out to the world, “I am, I am here, I am now.” If you haven’t seen the scene where Drew screams at the E.T., go right now to a place where videotapes or film are sold or rented, and buy it or rent and watch it. It is delightful. [laughs uproariously] What was it like acting with the E.T.?
Drew Barrymore: Um, I don’t know. So many feelings. [chokes up] You know, like the finger, ouch. The neck that stretched. It’s emotional. [laughs]
James Lipton: Indeed, emotional. Your family is truly Hollywood royalty, which is apparent when you annonced to the world that your next project was to be “Charlie’s Angels,” a television show which some have called the greatest show ever made… by humans. Why not a “Barney Miller” or “Starsky Hutch”?
Drew Barrymore: Well, we did start out with “Barney Miller.” Then during pre-production, we discovered there were no women in the original cast.
James Lipton: [uproarious laughing] Yes, marvelous, simply marvelous. You are a delight.
Drew Barrymore: Oh, you are a delight, too. It’s so magical.
James Lipton: In 1995, you do a film, a film which some call a “chick flick,” meaning a movie primarily intend for the opposite gender of myself. [laughs]
Drew Barrymore: [laughs] Yes.
James Lipton: The film, of course, “Boys On The Side.” And on that film, you worked with the Whoopi Goldberg. What was that like?
Drew Barrymore: Magical. Whoopi was so funny. Sometimes on the set, she would say, “No, child.”
[James and Drew laugh until James and the chair fall down. James crawls back up.]
James Lipton: We will conclude our evening with a questionnaire invened by the great Bernard Pivot of “Apostrophes” and “Bouillon de Culture” — [clutches wrist] I hurt my wrist — which has been asked of some of the finet minds of the 20th century. What profession other than yours would you like to attempt?
Drew Barrymore: Um, a knife maker.
James Lipton: What profession would you absolutely not like to participate in?
Drew Barrymore: Um, I wouldn’t ant to burn monkeys.
James Lipton: Nor they you. And finally, if heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive?
Drew Barrymore: Um, “Hey, Drew Barrymoore, you have treated people with such care, tender care, and kindness. You smell like flowers.
James Lipton: [applauds] Drew Barrymoore, you are a delight.
Drew Barrymore: Thank you. [attempts to shake James hand]
James Lipton: [recoils] Son of a bee sting. Thank you.
Walter … Christopher Walken Virginia Clarvin … Rachel Dratch Roger Clarvin … Will Ferrell Catherine … Ana Gasteyer
[open to a patio with the Clarvins, Walter, and Catherine]
Virginia: Does anyone care for some baba ganoush or hummus before we start our main course? [Walter takes some] Yes, have some.
Roger: It’s so wonderful, Walter, when we’re graced with a visit from you.
Walter: Well, I always treasure my conferences at the university, and of course, my time with my old colleagues.
Catherine: I’m just so glad I got to come along. It’s so beautiful here.
Virginia: Oh, you must take advantage of the view from Pullman Falls. It’s absolutely perfect for lover’s walks.
Roger: Yes, are you taking lovers’ walks?
Catherine: Uh, what do you mean?
[Roger holds Virginia]
Virginia: Well, are you at the point in your relationship when you can walk hand-in-hand as lovers?
Catherine: I, um, guess so.
Walter: Actually, we haven’t ben seeing each other all that long.
[Catherine laughs]
Virginia: Oh, I see. So in due time, eh lover?
Roger: [as he rubs Virginia’s arms] Yes, Virginia. I remember our first days of courtship as if it were yesterday. Eager drives to Holyoke. Passionate cries of love making muffle into a feather pillow in order to avoid waking your roomate Chin Le. [kisses Virginia]
Virginia: Oh, yes, yes. Fond memories, my lover prince.
Roger: Yes.
Virginia: Can I get you more Sangria?
[Roger downs a glass of Sangria]
Walter: You’re never going to meet a couple more in love than Roger and Virginia.
Catherine: Sounds like it, yeah.
Roger: Surely, Katherine, you must have a story about your lover.
Catherine: Oh, I just think that’s best kept private.
Walter: Sure, she’s acting shy now, but she’s quite a curious lover.
Roger and Virginia: Oh.
Catherine: [shocked] Walter!
Walter: One wintry night after eating Indian… [pause] Catherine whispered into my ear, [at this time, Catherine grows upset and flinches] her breath rich with faraway spices, that she desire to make love. She wanted to try shinshi shinshi. Now, I’d been begging her to try sinshi shinshi for months. She’d refused on the grounds that it was unclean. Finally, she was willing to accept her lover’s body in places no one had ever trespassed. Specifically, the ear canal.
Catherine: Walter!
[an audience member hoots]
Roger: Walter, your stories always make me hungry. [moans with Virginia]
Virginia: Oh, Walter, we made your favorite tonight, moussaka. [laughs with Roger]
Catherine: What’s so funny?
Virginia: You see, Katherine, in our younger days [while Roger kisses Virginia’s hands] we took a glorious trip to the Greek Islands
Roger: We rented a krypsona on the Isle of Santorini.
Walter: And I was there, too.
Catherine: [sarcastically] Really?
Roger: Oh, yes.
Virginia: [while Roger starts rubbing Virginia’s shoulders] Yes, one day we returned to the Krypsona from the beach. Our bodies browned by the sun. And the locals had killed and roasted a goat and —
Roger: We filled our bellies with goat meat.
Virginia: Our hands greasy.
Walter: Mouths glistening.
Virginia: Yes, and —
Roger: Once again, our bodies sluggish with goat meat.
Catherine: Okay, all right, okay, do you think there’s any way we could save this one until after dinner.
[the Clarvins laugh]
Roger: No. That evening, Virginia and I made love so powerful, me thinks I heard the god Zeus chuckling from on high. [him and Virgnia touch each other]
Walter: And I was there, too.
Catherine: [shocked] Do you mean?
Walter: Bingo. We did a three way
[Catherine looks disgusted]
Virginia: Now, mind you, Catherine. This was a long time ago.
Roger: Yes, yes, this was a year and a half ago.
Catherine: [disgusted] Gross.
Virginia: So that’s why when I always think of the night I entertained not one but two lovers whenever I eat moussaka.
Catherine: [upset] All right, okay, Walter, Walter, I wanna go home.
Walter: What, lover, we only just arrived.
Roger: Perhaps our talk of lovers has made Catherine yearn for me shinshi shinshi.
Catherine: And I cannot believe you told them that.
[Catherine gets up and leaves in fury]
Walter: My lover has a fiery soul. I best chase her for she is my ride. [touches Virginia’s cheek] Good night, dear friends and former lovers.
Roger and Virginia: Good night, Walter.
Walter: Good night. [exists the scene]
Virginia: Good night, Walter. Oh, listen, the rhythm of the crickets.
Roger: [chirps like a cricket] “Make love.” [chirps again] “Make love.” Quick, quick, [clears the table as the two prepare to make love] let’s rub our legs and bodies against each other like cricket children and make love and night fancy. [grunts]
Virginia: Shouldn’t we go upstairs, lover?
Roger: No, right here, lover. [in pain] Ow, ow, my back, my back.
Virginia: Is it your back?
Roger: [mimicks Virginia] “Is it your back?” Yes it’s my back! Get the hell off me! [pushes her off]

I’m heartened to hear that, for the most part, the people of this country show strong support for my agenda. However, lately, there are some who are beginning to criticize this administration. Maybe these people don’t understand – America is presently at war. Not just a war on terrorism; but we are engaged in a deadly stand-off with an Axis of Evil. You know who I’m talking about – Iran, Iraq, and one of the Koreas.
But my Axis of Evil doesn’t seem to interest the people out there. Some people just want to talk about the economy, and budgets, and Enron. I bet most of you out there don’t even understand Enron. I sure as heck don’t! It hurts my head to think about it. So, from now on, Enron will be part of my Axis of Evil. I don’t want to hear anything else about Enron, unless our military has pounded it into submission. So, look out, Enron – you’re now part of the
So is the Economy. I don’t like the way this economy is acting; not very American, it’s evil! The economy is now a part of my Axis of Evil.
Also, I don’t like Sen. Tom Daschle. You know why? He’s very critical. You know where that leads him? You got it. He’s now part of the Axis of Evil.
So, a quick recap – that’s Iran, Iraq, Enron, the Economy, and Daschle, and one of those Koreas. They all form a terrible Axis of Evil, standing in the way of all that we as Americans value.
And don’t forget France. The French don’t like me saying “Axis of Evil”, so guess what? They’re now a part of the very same Axis of Evil that they don’t like me saying. How do you like them apples, France? Next time, you keep your mouth shut. You mess with Texas, and it’s straight to the Axis of Evil, got it?
Germany, Italy, Japan – they were the original Axis of Evil. Maybe they thought I would forget, but I didn’t. They’re back in!
Here’s one you probably didn’t expect – Dick Cheney. Now, he’s up to something, and I don’t like it! He’s never around. If I’m in the White House, he’s not. If I’m on a plane, nowhere in sight. He’s very sneaky; not to mention, scary. I’m putting him in the Axis of Evil – for now.
Evil Knievel’s going in the Axis of Evil – but that’s a no-brainer. But Dr. Evil? No; he makes me laugh, so he’s out.
So, you see, America? There’s nothing to fear. Everything’s fine. You go out and buy your new cars, fly on airplanes, and invest in K-Mart. Don’t listen to what the economists say. Why? Because they like math, and math is very much a part of the Axis of Evil.
And you know what else is part of the Axis of Evil? “Live, from New York, it’s Saturday Night!”

[Light flute music plays as we fade in on a shot of a pink and purple dollhouse in a girls room]
Announcer: And now we go inside Barbies Dreamhouse!
[ open on Barbie, wearing a green nightgown with clear high heels, trying on one of her hair gems and looking at herself in the mirror ]
Barbie: Skipper, do you think this hair gem makes me look old?
[Skipper enters the room, wearing a pink, see-through negligee]
Skipper: [ cheerfully ] No, Barbie, don’t be silly!
Barbie: Skipper, I’m 43. At some point, a glow-in-the-dark, dark crystal, bejeweled butterfly tiara is.. is just a little ridiculous.
Skipper: [changes the subject] Can I have the keys to the ‘Vette? I’m going out.
Barbie: [ stern ] Not like that, you’re not.
Skipper: It’s a post-pajama fun party!
Barbie: Mmm-hmm.. [points to Skippers bare feet] Youre not even wearing shoes!
Skipper: [ looks down ] I lost all my shoes.
Barbie: Who’s gonna be at this “pajama fun party”?
Skipper: Everybody!
Barbie: Who’s “everybody”?
Skipper: Well, Jam ‘N Glam Theresa, and Ski Sensation [hesitates] Kira, and Glitter Fun Kristy, and Ethnic Kristy.
Barbie: Are there gonna be boys there? Action guys?
Skipper: [ naive ] I don’t know..
Barbie: Who’s gonna be there? X-Men? Rescue Heroes? Ultimate Soldier?
Skipper: I don’t know.. there might be some collectible Hobbits.
Barbie: [puts her foot down] No way! You’re not going!
Skipper: What are you talking about?
Barbie: You’re staying here, and you’re staying out of trouble!
Skipper: Barbie, you’re not the boss of me!
Barbie: I don’t want you making the same mistakes I made!
Skipper: Barbie, I’m nothing like you!
Barbie: You are just like me, Skipper! You’re my daughter!
Skipper: [stands up, stunned over the news] What did you say?
Barbie: Skipper, Skipper.. [ they both walk behind the Barbie couch ] I’m your mother. [holds Skipper by the upper arms]
Skipper: No, you’re not! [shoves Barbies hands away from her] You’re my sophisticated older sister, Barbie!
Barbie: Honey, I know it’s always been “Skipper! She’s Barbie’s little sister!” “Barbie’s kid sis, Skipper!” But you’re old enough to know nowI’m your mother. Haven’t you ever wondered why we look so much alike? Or why we’re both double-jointed?
[ they each lift a leg clear past their head ]
Skipper: Oh, my God! You told me mom died in an Easy-Bake Oven accident.
Barbie: Sit down, sweetheart..
[ they drop their legs back into place, then walk around to sit on the couch ]
Barbie: I’m sorry I told you those thinga. I was young.. I was alone.. G.I. Joe was in Vietnam.. Ken was in Canada.
Skipper: So, so, does this mean Ken’s my father?
Barbie: Oh, no. No, no, no, no. [laughs] Kens not your father. The 70’s were a crazy time! I experimented a lot. Your father is a Han Solo action figure.
Skipper: [horrified by the revelation] He’s not even our scale! What kind of slutare you?!
[ Barbie gasps and slaps Skipper across the face. Skipper falls over with a dazed stare on her face ]
Barbie: How dare you talk to me like that! I have given my whole life to getting you the best of everything! Don’t you have a Sparkle Fantast Unicorn! Don’t you live in a Dream House!
Skipper: It’s not my dream! It’s your dream!
[ Barbie runs across the room and cries rapidly while Skipper cries on the couch ]
[ A moody Ken enters and slams the door behind him]
Ken: Hello.
Barbie: What, Ken?
Ken: I need my tux.
Barbie: Fine!
Ken: Where?
Barbie: Upstairs.
Ken: You.. look tired.
Barbie: Ken, please..
[ Ken turns and exits upstairs ]
[ Barbie strolls back over to Skipper ]
Barbie: Did you know how many jobs I took to take care of you? I was a teacher, a ballerina, an astronaut, a princess, a competitive skater. [sits down next to Skipper] Don’t you remember that time I was a business lady? I had a suit and a briefcase! I raised those Lhasa Apsos for a whilethat was a bust. It was all for you, because I love you. [ extends a stiff arm to stroke Skipper’s hair ]
Skipper: I’m gonna need some time to process this.
[ Ken returns downstairs carrying a suit in a pink dry-cleaning bag]
Ken: Don’t call me. I’ll be in Malibu.
Barbie: Ken! What have you got in there? Is that one of my Bob Mackies?
Ken: [quickly] No. [ runs ]
Barbie: Sneaky little queen!
Ken: Plastic bitch! [ exits quickly ]
Barbie: [ grabs Skipper’s hands ] Sweetheart.. go to your party, okay? Have a good time, and we’ll talk when you get back.
Skipper: [ shakes head] No. I want to stay here with you.. Mom.
Barbie: [ elated ] Mom?
Skipper: We could brush each other’s hair!
Barbie: I’d really like that!
[ they stand up and retrieve the Barbie hairbrush from the coffee table ]
Skipper: Hey, Mom? Kelly and [flubs saying Baby Chrissy] Baby ReallyChrissy, they’re not really your sisters, though, are they?
Barbie: [ as she combs Skipper’s hair ] No. Kelly and Baby Chrissy aren’t my sisters. I-I had a threeway with some Power Rangers.
[Skipper shakes her head as Barbie brushes her hair]
