Okay, this is our "Good Morning, America" half of the show with all the guests and stuff, right?

Bill - Simple - no weather, no sports, no news, no roving reporter; just interviewer and his guests.
Definition
You're right! We can pull this off!
Term
Bill - Great. Jeff, you better take the lead on this half. you probably should stay seated so you don't jar your innards as much.

Jason - But...

(holding stomach) Good thinking.
Term
Jason - (a bit fearful) You've got a point there. (Back to Jeff) All right, who are the guests?
Definition
We have a demonstration of the Stainernator up first with inventor Tony Dynamo.

Bill - I can do that, I think.
Definition
Dude, you totally can. Dynamo brought all his stuff here last night. You just have to follow the directions.
Term
Bill - Okay, cool.

We have howling Hank Turner and his wild animal guest...
Term
Jason - Well, I guess that is an answer we have to live with.

Bill - And we're back. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. That is all the news so I am turning the program over to the Wake Up, Jamestown! morning talk show host, Les Manly - he has a show you definately won't want to miss (under breath) I know I'm interested to see what happens.

(After applause) Wow! I'm speechless! How does it work?
Term
Bill - Well, its easier than a drunk cheerleader, that's for sure!
Definition
(After BEEP - nervously) Okay, well, that sounds good. How about a demonstration?
Term
Bill - Great idea! Check out this nasty, disgusting, rancid jersey. Look at this mess. Grass. Blood. Mustard. Ketchup. Poop.

Term
Grant - Of course I'm up for this. It is what I do, Les.
Definition
(At ease) You are right, you are right. Well, lets see what you brought for us today. Something ferocious no doubt.
Term
Grant - Oh, that it is, Les! You'd better stand back. (dead possum falls unto table)
Definition
What the hell is that?
Term
Grant - Didelphis Virginiana... An opossum.
Definition
He's dead.
Term
Grant - No, thats a common misconception. It is just one of the beast's defense mechanisms...I guess I'll go find a marmot or something. no opossum for me today. (lifting possum up)
Definition
He's dead!
Term
Grant, Les, only to the untrained eye. But professional s like myself not only can see that the animal is obviously faking but we also know how to rouse it from this state (Hits possum on table - head falls off)
Definition
His head fell off!

Grant - merely another of this creatures highly evolved senses of self-preservation....Wow! That was close. I'm so glad evolution has equipped me with a removable head.

No!
Term
Jason and Bill - Why not?

You're making banana nut bread!
Term
Jason and Bill - So?
Definition
Nut allergy!
Term
We'll leave out the nuts.

The high gluten levels sets off my irritable bowel syndrome.
Term
Grant - I'll do it! I'll make the bread and save the show!

You're not touching food. Keith!
Term
Keith - I legally cannot cook in public. Not since the hibachi incident incident at the SPCA in '84.

Well, what are you going to do? We're eight hands short of a cooking segment.
Term
Jason - (to volunteers) - We'll just give you the instructions and you just follow along.

(run over to control table and hit a switch) In five four three, We're back and since we are nearing the breakfasty hour, we thought we'd bring out our next guests to show us a quick, easy and tasty breakfast that you can make anytime. Please join me in welcoming, all the way from across the gret pond, the pasrty chefs of the Royal family, Flora and Fauna. And... Fanny! Yay! I clap my hands because I'm so excited and happy. I need to shake your hands!
Term
(assistants all shake hands with Jeff)
Definition
What are we making today, ladies?
Term
Bill - That's right. Now, the first thing we're going to have you do, Les, is sift the flour into the bowl.
Definition
(Jeff's assistant tries to get the flour into the bowl being held by Jason's assistant)
Term
Grant - or, as they say around here, baking pop.
Definition
(stare at Grant is disbelief, assistant tries to get all of the ingredients into Jason's bowl)
Term
Bill - Onto the wet ingredients. Let me add two cups of water.
Definition
Cups. Not Caps?
Term
Jason - Thank you. Now it needs a good, hard beating.
Definition
Couldn't we all?
Term
Bill - Flora, dear, would you be a lamb and add the nuts?

Jason - Of course.
Definition
And what kind of nuts will we be using in today's recipe?
Term
Jason - Well, that depends on how good my aim is.
Definition
Walnuts! Good choice.
Term
Grant - Then you should test the batter. So why don't you each grab a bit and taste it?
Definition
(Jeff uses own hands to grab his stomach and butt and begins to run off stage, remembers the assistant, runs back and puts one of their hands on his stomach, moves the other to his butt, thinks better of it, moves it to his mouth and dry heaves)
Term
Jason - Just like me mum used to make.
Definition
All right. That was a close one. So close I should run the back of my hand across my forehead and say, "Phew." Phew. Now, in the interest of time, Flora and Fauna... and Fanny have baked one of these delicious nut breads ahead of time.
Term
Jason - Now, doesn't that look good?
Definition
Good AND easy!
Term
Bill - Let's all bring the bread to our mouths so we can eat it.
