After the opening number and a five-minute break, the house lights finally came up to reveal a portly Marlon Brando lounging in a leather recliner onstage and donning dark shades. "I'm Marlon Brando," Brando began, in what's become his customary soliloquy. "In any event while your...wondering who that old fat fart is sitting there...I wanted you to realize that in that minute there were hundreds if not thousands of children hacked to death with a machete, beaten to death by their parents, got typhus and died of a disease." After jarring the audience to attention, the legendary film star then plugged the popster's Website, MichaelJackson.com, while Jackson himself looked on, sitting beside the stage with best pal Elizabeth Taylor.

*curtain rises on Kevin Smith, sitting on a sofa surrounded by Cheetos and with his hand down his pants watching his bootleg Star Wars Holiday Special video*
KEVIN SMITH: "Hi there, in case you're wondering who this social reject sitting here is, I just wanted you to know that in the last five minutes millions of boys and men jerked themselves off into a frenzy imagining they were giving Britney Spears the fuck of her life. Unfortunately for them, the only person currently doing that to the best of anyone's knowledge is here tonight with his bandmates. Justin Timberlake and N'Sync, ladies and gentlemen!"
*enter Dan and Ned as Dan and Ned, superior equivalents to Jay and Silent Bob*
DAN: "What the fuck?"
NED: *grunts, shrugs*
