Mostly Garbage

Spokesman…..Jason Sudeikis

[ open on footage of Spokesman enojying quality time spent with his dog ]

Spokesman V/O: You love your dog. And you cherish every moment you spend together — every fetch, every walk, every snuggle.

[ cut to Spokesman shopping for dog food ]

Spokesman V/O: But, hey — you’ve got bills to pay! That’s why, when you’re in the pet food aisle, you reach for Mostly Garbage brand dog food. Because your dog isn’t a person; he’s an animal.

[ cut to Spokesman in the kitchen with his dog ]

Spokesman: And in these tough economic times, you’ve gotta keep your priorities straight.

[ Spokesman pours the garbage-cluttered dog food into his dog’s bowl ]

Spokesman V/O: Mostly Garbage is cheaper than other dog foods. [ Spokesman turns his nose at the smell ] So you can save your money for human things, like heat for your house, or food for your children.

[ cut to Spokesman ]

Spokesman: So, what does Mostly Garbage taste like? I don’t know. I’ve never tried it. It’s dog food.

[ cut to close-up of Spokesman pouring the dog food into a bowl, as scraps, pieces of plastic wrap, and a banana peel spill out ]

Spokesman V/O: So, how healthy is Mostly Garbage? Well, it’s fortified with 8 essential vitamins, including Riboflavin. But, you know, there’s also a lot of garbage in there. Long story short: It’s healthy enough for a dog.

[ cut to the dog eating from the bowl of garbage ]

Spokesman V/O: You know, I’ve seen this little guy eat pure garbage?

[ cut to Spokesman addressing the camera ]

Spokesman: Heck! This morning, he ate CAT POOP! Right out of the litter box! I was like, “Should I stop this?” But, you know, he seemed to be having a fun time!

So why don’t you choose Mostly Garbage? Because he’s a dog…

Announcer…..Bill Hader
Detective Joe Smith…..Fred Armisen
Detective John…..Andy Samberg
Bad Guy…..Ryan Reynolds
Nina Midbow…..Kristen Wiig

[Classical Music starts to play]

[Logo of PBS appears]

[Logo of the show “International Masterworks” appear]

Announcer: Hello! Welcome to International Masterworks. Tonight we are proud to present an extraordinary find. An original work from the Norwegian actor’s playhouse. All though this small company is based in Norway they chose to replicate the style of an American police drama. The actors have spent months perfecting their American accents and the results… are outstanding. You would never guess the actor’s speaker their second language. We begin in the gritty world of New York see where two officers are interrogating a criminal

[Camera cuts to an interrogation room with 2 police offices and a criminal.]

[Detective Joe Smith tries to talk English but he has a very thick accent. You can tell that Detective Joe Smith is not American]

Detective Joe Smith: So… you better tell us mister. Did you do a crime by making graffiti? We found a spray paint in the ban.

Bad Guy: Of Course I did not.

Detective Joe Smith: Don’t make me cross. I haven’t drank my coffee from the donut store yet.

Bad Guy: Well i supposed you better keep drink because i have not made any wrongs doing at all. Copper.

Detective Joe Smith: It’s Detective Joe Smith. Memorise this name. I’m starting to become very cross with you.

Detective John: Joe do you want me to strike him with a knuckle sandwich?

[Detective John has the same accent as Detective Joe Smith]

Detective Joe Smith: No John! I’ll just read this news paper of the daily news and wait. Give me my Marlboro cigarettes will you?

[Detective John hands Detective Joe Smith a cigarette]

[Bad guy leans over the table]

Bad Guy: I didn’t make a graffiti.

[Camera cuts to the Announcer. Classical music starts to play]

Announcer: You’ll notice that the writers have painstakingly recreated American dialogue styles. In this next, scene the very famous Nina Midbow portrays the young outlaw’s broken hearted mother.

[Camera cut to the interrogation room with Detective Joe Smith and Detective John standing at one end of the table and Nina Midbow with her outlaw son at the other end]

[Nina Midbow is wearing a Pittsburgh Pirates hoody. She also has a very thick accent as do all the others.]

Nina Midbow: My son is innocent of this. Can’t you give us a break man? We’ll just go back to our Ghetto and listen to the local DJ radio play PLEASE!

[Nina Midbow leans over to her son and gives him a hug.]

Detective Joe Smith: You think that i don’t know what it’s like? I grew up in the streets of Time Square… Man. We all had to mug each other. Everywhere we looked was pollution but I became a tough cop with a cigarette.

Detective John: And I became his partner in this. YEAH!

Detective Joe Smith: I don’t have a choice you guy. I’m gonna throw you in with all the other robbers.

Bad Guy: I want to speak with the “baresters”

[Camera cuts to the Announcer]

Announcer: Oh to image that these actors are from Oslo and never once been to America. This final scene particularly showcases their grasp of American culture.

[Camera cuts to the two detectives and the Mother with her son in the interrogation room.]

Detective Joe Smith: You better speak!

[Detective Joe Smith with a mean expression grabs the arm of the Bad Guy very lightly]

[The Bad Guy turns his face away from Detective Joe Smith]

Bad Guy: Don’t strike me.

Nina Midbow: LET MY SON BE!

Detective John: WAIT!

[Detective John grabs a portable stereo from the a chair and places it on the table]

Detective John: It’s time for the baseball match to start. My favourite team is playing the world series.

[Detective John presses a button on the portable stereo.]

Radio Announcer: The baseball has been thrown. The batter his the ball… and the players hits a home run!

[Everyone in the room is excited with the home run]

Radio Announcer: We wait for the score and… the Pittsburgh Pirates are at number one.

[Everyone is very excited at the announcement. Nina Midbow is pointing at he hoody which reads “Pirates”. The two detective clap with joy.]

Detective Joe Smith: Oh that is great man. Let’s all go to Jim’s bar and have a beer.

[Bad Guy stands up from his chair]

Bad Guy: Oh slap me five.

Detective Joe Smith: Slap everything five.

[Detective grabs the Bad Guy’s hand and leans over to shake Nina’s hand. Now everyone is trying to shake everyone’s hand at the same time. There hands are not connecting with anyone else.]

[Camera cuts back to the Announcer]

Announcer: Thank You for watching International Masterworks joins us next week when the Mexican ballet performs Kabuki Theater. Goodnight

Ryan Reynolds’ Monologue

…..Ryan Reynolds

Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen — Ryan Reynolds!

Ryan Reynolds: Wow! Thank you! Thank you very much! Oh, my God… I am hosting “SNL”. Wow! [ the audience cheers ] All right! It was a crazy, busy summer for me. I was very, very lucky. I was lucky enough to be in two different movies: “Wolverine” and “The Proposal”. One of these — [ light applause from a few members of the audience ] Thank you very much. [ he continues ] One of these is a superhero movie, and the other is a romantic comedy about Wolverine. Now, the transition from a romantic comedy to a superhero movie is a very, very delicate thing. They have similar elements, but with very different styles.

In both, the main character has a complicated past. In a superhero movie, he’s a scientifically-engineered killing machine from a distant planet. In the romantic comedy, he’s from Cleveland.

They both have villains. In a superhero movie, it’s an evil genius with mutant powers or a freak deformity. In a romantic comedy, it’s Jeremy Piven.

What else? Uh — in a romantic comedy, there’s always a guy who dresses flamboyantly; it’s the gay best friend. In a superhero movie, that will be me.

And it’s amazing, because sometimes the dialogue is virtually identical in both. There’s a subtle difference in tone. Like, if you take the line: “Stay with me.” All right? In one movie, it’s: [ whispery ] “Stay with me.” And, in the other, it’s: [ with teeth clenched ] “STAY WITH ME!!” Now, you don’t want to mix those up, or you will scare the CRAP out of Sandra Bullock.

And, in both movies, there’s a climactic moment in the porung rain, when the hero realizes just exactly what he has to do. Here’s the superhero version:

[ the stage darkens, as a generic guitar riff plays and a silhoette of pouring rain falls upon Reynolds’ face. He grins knowingly and holds up his fist. ]

And… here is the romantic comedy version:

[ same stage lighting and effects as before, but this time Sophie B. Hawkins’ “Damn! I Wish I Was Your Lover” plays in the background ]

Now — were you able to spot the difference? It was the music.

Of course, right now I’m focused on being a superhero because I’m about to start working on the new “Green Lantern” movie, which I’m really excited for. And I think it’s going to be a huge hit because, if there’s one thing that kids love, it’s lanterns. [ the audience laughs ] We, uh — [ he points into the audience ] That guy knows what I’m talking about! We start filming really soon, so look for that in spring 2053.

We got a GREAT show! Lady Gaga is here! Stick around, we’ll be right back!

A Message From the President of the United States

President Barack Obama…..Fred Armisen

[ open on Presidential seal ]

Announcer: The following is an address by the President of the United States.

[ dissolve to President Barack Obama seated behgind desk in Oval Office ]

President Barack Obama: Good evening, and congratulations to Rio for getting the 2016 Olympics! And to the Olympic Committee I say, good luck with Rio! [ he smiles, then frowns sourly ]

Now, last year I was elected with a mandate to bring this country change we could believe in. And, as time has passed, it has become clear that this promise is troubling to some people. There are those on the Right who are angry. They think that I’m turning this great country into something that resembles the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany, but that’s just not the case. Because when you look at my record, it’s very clear what I’ve done so far, and that is: [ dramatic pause ] Nothing. Nada. Almost one year, and nothing to show for it.

You don’t believe me? You think I’m making it up? Take a look at this checklist.

[ split-screen, with checklist to Obama’s left ]

Now, on my first day in office — on my first day in office, I said I’d close Guantanamo Bay. Is it closed yet? No.

I said we’d be out of Iraq. Are we? Not the last time I checked.

I said I’d make improvements in the war in Afghanistan. Is it better? No, I think it’s actually worse.

How about health care reform? Hell no.

I even went personally to try and bring the Olympics to Chicago in 2016. It didn’t work out. But, in this case, there’s some good news with the bad: For every person who buys an American car in the next six months, you’re gonna get one of these.

[ he holds up an orange “Chicago 2016” t-shirt ]

Now, I just don’t see why the Right is so riled up. I mean, how do you think the Left feels? They’re the ones that should be mad. Now, I’m sure they thought I would have addressed at least one of the following things by now:

Global Warming: No.

Immigration Reform: No.

Gays in the Military: Nuh-uh.

Limits on Executive Powers: Nope.

Torture Prosecutions: No.

So, looking at this list, I’m seeing two big accomplishments: Jack and Squat. And, remember: I can do whatever I want. I have a majority in both houses of Congress. I could make it mandatory for all gays to marry, and require all cars to run on marijuana. But do I? No!

But it’s not all bad news. I have a few accomplishments. The Cash for Clunkers program really stimulated the economy. Unfortunately, it was the economy of Japan.

Let’s see, what else… uh — also, I killed a fly on TV. Remember that? Uh — I brought a white police officer and a black professor together for a beer. Who else could do that? You’re right — Oprah. But no one else!

So, please, stop saying this country is on the road to socialism. If that were actually the case, I’d be making some real changes. Instead, it took me four months to pick out a dog.

So, all of you frothing Glenn Beck supporters, put away those tri-cornered hats and those photoshopped pictures of me as The Joker; because if I see anymore of this hateful rhetoric, I’m gonna have to take drastic action. [ he pauses dramatically, then smiles and leans back in his chair ] Nah, not really.

Thank you, and: “Live, from New York, it’s Saturday Night!”

I was walkin through the city streets
and a man walks up to me and hands me the latest energy drink
Run faster. Jump Higher.
Man, I’m not gonna let you poison me.

I threw it on the ground!
You must think I’m a joke!
I aint gonna be part of this system!
Man, pump that garbage in another mans veins!

I go to my favorite hot dog stand
and the dude says, you come here all the time! Heres one for free.
I said, Man, what I look like, a charity case?

I took it, and threw it on the ground!
I dont need your handouts!
I’m an adult!
Please, you cant buy me hot dog man!

At the farmers market with my so-called girlfriend
She hands me her cellphone, says it’s my dad.
Man, this aint my dad. This is a cellphone!

I threw it on the ground!
What you think I’m stupid?
Im not a part of this system!
My dad’s not a phone! Duh!

Some poser hands me a cake at a birthday party
What you want me to do with this, eat it?
Happy birthday to the ground!
I threw the rest of the cake too!
Welcome to the real world, jackass!

So many things to throw on the ground
Like this, and this, and that. And even this.
I’m an adult!

Two Hollywood phonys trying to give me their autograph.
Ground! Nobody wants your autograph! Phonys!

Then the two phonys got up. Turns out they had a taser.
And they tased me in the butt hole.
I fell to the ground.
The phonys didnt let up.
Tasing on my butt hole, over and over.
I was screaming and squirming
My butt hole was on fire!

The moral of this story is: you cant trust the system!

[ open on rooftop setting of cooking show ]

Phil O’Brien: Hello, and welcome to the very first episode of “Cooking Al Fresco”. I’m Phil O’Brien.

Fran Jones: And I’m Fran Jones. And we’re coming to you, live, from the roof of the Hammershill Building in beautiful New York City! I think I can see Connecticut from here!

[ they laugh hysterically ]

Phil O’Brien: GREAT joke, Fran! So, for those of you who don’t know: “Al Fresco” is Italian for “in the fresh air.”

Fran Jones: And that’s where we’ll be doing all of our cooking! So move over, birds! ‘Cause it’s OUR roof now!

Phil O’Brien: [ laughing ] 2 for 2 on the jokes! Well, we’ve got a GREAT show for you today! Joining us in a bit, from the Food Network: Guy Fieri!

[ cut to Guy Fieri, chuckling wildly as he holds an entire piineapple-ham in his hands ]

Guy Fieri: Today, we’re talking HAM HOCKS!! So get ready to ROCK OUT… with your HOCK OUT!! [ he laughs maniacally ] FULL THROTTLE!!! [ he then begins to chew on the ham ]

[ return to Phil and Fran ]

Fran Jones: Great! But, first, we’re gonna kick things off with a classic: Chicken Parmegean.

Phil O’Brien: Mmm! Tell us more, Fran.

Fran Jones: Well, fresh chicken is very important, but the REAL secret is in the bread crumbs!

Phil O’Brien: That’s right! So we’ve got TONS of day-old bread here. We’re just gonna put this down and really get into it. So, we —

[ suddenly, a flock of birds descends onto the set to collect the exposed bread crumbs ]

[ Phil and Fran screanm, then attempt to offer the bread crumbs to the attacking birds ]

[ cut to “Be Right Back” slide ]

[ return to Phil and Fran sans birds, but still catching their breath after the attack ]

Phil O’Brien: Okay!

Fran Jones: A lot of excitement here on the first day!

Phil O’Brien: Oh, yeah… the kids’ll like that on the You Tube!

[ they laugh ]

Fran Jones: You Tube!

Phil O’Brien: Is everybody okay? Guy Fieri, you okay?

[ cut to Guy Fieri holding a hot dog ]

Guy Fieri: Looks like THIS show… is FOR THE BIRDS!! [ he laughs maniacally ] Relax, the two of you’s! I’m just messin’ with you! HOT DOG!! [ he shoves the full hot dog into his face ]

[ return to Phil and Fran ]

Phil O’Brien: [ laughing ] Oh, Guy! Well, hopefully, those birds have filled up on the bread, alright? So let’s skip the bread crumbs for now, and move onto something a little safer: marianara sauce.

Fran Jones: Good idea! [ she grabs a bottle ] Mmm, marinara sauce. Now, a lot of the jars that marinara sauce comes in —

[ as she pops the lid, the birds once again descend upon the set ]

Phil O’Brien: Oh, my God!! They did not fill up on bread!! What are they doing?!

Fran Jones: They’re dipping the bread in the sauce!!

Phil O’Brien: They’re dipping the bread in the sauce!!

Woman…..Nasim Pedrad
Hamilton…..Will Forte

[ open on exterior, Barnes & Nobles ]

[ dissolve to exterior, Debbie turner reading from her book, “Living With the Devil” ]

Debbie Turner: “…He said goodbye, adjusted his designer sunglasses, and then the elevator doors closed. That was the last time I ever saw his soft, long, blond hair, or heard his sweet, smokey voice. Hamilton was gone.”

[ light applause from the small crowd ]

Employee: That was wonderful. Wonderful. I mean, people don’t usually read the entire book at a book reading, but, uh… no complaints here. It was certainly a fascinating story. Thank you. [ to the crowd ] Uh — any questions for Miss Turner?

Woman: Yes. If it was such an unhealthy relationship, why did you stay with him for so long?

Debbie Turner: I had questions about Hamilton from the beginning, but I was so… physically attracted to him, that I just couldn’t end it.

Employee: Yeah. Yeah, we’ve all been there. Uh — any other questions?

Hamilton: [ softly ] I… have a question.

Debbie Turner: Hamilton?

Hamilton: What… if a man… realized he made a mistake… and he needed your love to survive?

Debbie Turner: Hamilton… what are you doing here?

Hamilton: I’m here… because I love you. I want to be with you in a spectacular way.

Debbie Turner: It’s too late.

Hamilton: Is it? Or is it… not too late? Is it, possibly, early?

Debbie Turner: No, it’s too late.

Hamilton: Love me again, for I have changed. I’ve learned how to love, and I love how it feels. It’s like I jumped off a bridge, and into a huge ocean of love. And all of the fish are kissing my toes. Even sharks are smiling and happy, making love to what was once their prey.

Debbie Turner: [ aggravated ] It’s easy to say that you’ve changed, because you say that ALL the time!

Hamilton: And yet, I say it again. This time you WILL take my word for it, or else!

Debbie Turner: Is that a threat?

Hamilton: [ sincere ] Yes, my love.

Debbie Turner: You are unbelievable! Look, there are so many things that you have to change, I don’t know where to start.

Hamilton: Start towards the end.

Debbie Turner: [ shaking her head ] Well… your Hummer. I think you know how I feel about that thing.

Hamilton: I’ve already sold it… and I have a new car. It’s a bigger Hummer. You’re going to love it!

Debbie Turner: And your creepy bayonet collection?

Hamilton: I will get rid of my bayonets. I will bury them in the chests and bellies of those who would assail this great country with their Communist and Socialist agendas. Health care is not a right, but a privilege of the pure-blooded. It is not to be wasted on the jewelers and the food cart vendors, the laundry folders, the busboys, and nail salon workers. For those, death is a necessary part of the life cycle, and I will gladly help them on their way.

Woman: [ interrupting ] Can I make a quick comment here? [ to Debbie ] I don’t mean to criticize you as a writer, but you did NOT so justice to his looks! [ she smiles up at Hamilton ]

Hamilton: You like what you see?

Employee: [ jumping in ] Uh, for the record, I also like what I see!

Hamilton: That’s fine…

Debbie Turner: You guys! Don’t fall for it, okay? He’s just using his looks to SUCK YOU IN!! Hamilton, this is NOT going to work! When I first saw you, I fell HARD! It’s true. But then I realized that you were not there to STOP that book burning, but, rather than, to make sure that it rna smoothly!

Hamilton: Whether you know it or not… I’m a different person. I’ve joined a gymnasium. And I’m using toilet paper now.

Debbie Turner: [ she sighs ] Well, as I said… it’s too late.

Hamilton: Maybe that’s the case. But, can I say one last thing?

Debbie Turner: Fine. But it’s not going to make a difference.

Hamilton: In the words of the Black singer, Usher: “I wanna make love in this club… in this club…”

Debbie Turner: Our song?

Hamilton: [ as he steps closer ] “…in this club… in this club. I wanna make love in this club…”

Debbie Turner: This is not fair!

Hamilton: “…in this club… in this club…”

Debbie Turner: You son of a BITCH!!

Hamilton: “…in this club… in this club…”

Debbie Turner: [ unable to stop herself ] What are you doing to me?

Hamilton: “I wanna make love in this club…”

Debbie Turner: [ swooning ] I’m falling for you again!

Hamilton: “…in this club…”

Debbie Turner: Oh, God!

Hamilton: “…in this club…”

Debbie Turner: Fine! Fine! Let’s just do it! Just tell me where.
