Episode 305:
Precinct Open
 
Ken: ...(?)...Nothing funny enough to start a show with. Umm...anything funny come in?
 
Cops: No...no..
 
Kevin: Oh yeah, there's a kitten stuck in a tree on 72nd Street.
 
Ken: Yeah, well, that's more cute than it is funny. Umm...oh, I got an idea. Since we're on a comedy show, let's pretend something funny happens
right...now!
 
Cops: (laugh)
 
Dan, The Very Popular Openly Gay High School Student
 
(In locker room)
Joe: Hey! Are you looking at my ass? What the hell? Are you some kind of fairy or something?
 
Dan (Tom): Yes, I was looking at your ass, and I prefer to say gay, which I am. Didn't you know that? Everybody knows I'm gay!
 
Joe: Oh, I'm sorry, I'm new here. Nice to meet ya.
 
Dan: You too. You're very handsome.
 
Joe: Thanks. Oh, great, now I'm blushing.
 
(In the halls)
Ken: Hey Dan. Did you have fun at the gay bars last night?
 
Dan: Yeah, I had a great time. In fact, I met a very attractive man there, had sex with him.
 
Ken: Hey, all right! Way to go, Dan the gay man!
 
Coach (Kevin): Dan, get your openly gay ass over here.
 
Passing Kid: He's like a homosexual Fonzie!
 
Dan: Hi coach.
 
Coach: My uhh, wife was gonna throw these out, I figured you might want 'em. (holds up dresses.)
 
Dan: Oh, that's very sweet of you coach, but I'm not a transvestite, I'm just gay.
 
Coach: So let me get this straight. You just prefer having sex with men?
 
Dan: You got it coach.
 
Coach: Right on! I'll catch you later Dan. ha ha.
 
(In the cafeteria)
Mike B: Dan, I'm not gay, but I was wondering if you'd go to the prom with me.
 
Dan: Oh, I'm sorry. it's not because I'm not attracted to you, because I am. A lot. I'm nuts about men! But I already have a date.
 
Ken: Ooh! Who are you going to the prom with, Dan?
 
Dan: Here he comes now.
 
(Mike S. approaches)
 
David: Vice-Principal Morgan?
 
Kelly (Kerri): He's a hunkosaurus Rex!
 
VP Morgan: Kelly, spit that gum out, right now!
Hi.
 
Dan: Hi.
 
Crowd: Awww!
 
VP Morgan: Until tonight, Dan.
 
(At prom)
Dan: (Dancing with VP Morgan)
I gotta go to the bathroom. I'll be right back.
 
Coach: All right all right. And now it's time to announce the prom King And Queen. Ahh, it's no big surprise. You all know him, he's very
popular, and openly gay, Dan, And his lover Vice-Principal Morgan.
 
VP Morgan: Has anyone seen Dan?
 
Coach: Anybody know where Dan is?
 
Ken: We know he's not in the closet.
 
(Dan is revealed by the coach's wife behind the stage curtains kissing Kelly.)
 
Dan: I'm not gonna lie to you. I'm through with lies. I don't like having sex with men. I told you I was gay, because thought it was going to make
me popular, and it did. And I just can't say how sorry I am.
 
VP Morgan: You just got yourself a week's worth of detentions Mister.
Spit that gum out!
 
Coach: No wonder he didn't want the dresses.
 
Joe: Does that mean you don't like my ass?
 
Dan: (approaching microphone with pants around his ankles)
No, you've got a great ass. We all have great asses each in our own way. And if there's one thing I've learned, it's that we should appreciate each
other for what we are. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got a girl to kiss.
 
Crowd: Boo! Go get married! Boo!
 
Kerri's Day
 
Kerri: Hi, I'm Kerri. As the only female member of The State, I receive lots of letters asking me, "What's it like being in a group with ten guys? As
a woman, do you have as much creative input as the men? Yes I do! The State is an ensemble and there are no distinctions between men and
women. To show you what I mean, I thought I would take you through my typical day here at The State. Enjoy.
 
My day starts early. 4:30, eeek! But it gives me just enough time to do my hair and nails. Perfect. After that I go to each State member's home
where I wake him up and cook him a healthy breakfast. Writing jokes takes a lot of energy, and my hungry boys need their protein. Ken usually
drives me to work, because as you can imagine, I'm a terrible driver! Once we get to the office, it's time to start writing jokes. Well, I leave that to
the guys. My morning is spent on the phone gabbing to my girlfriends about my period. Then it's lunchtime, yum! A small salad and then I hit the
shops. Tabitha Soren and I usually meet at our favorite shoe shop. Shoes are my weakness, that's what Tabby says. Whoops! I'm needed on the set.
They need me to pick out their costumes. And today I get to act in a skit. I'm playing Joe's girlfriend, and we get to kiss! Tomorrow I'm playing a
hooker. I love the challenging roles the guys write for me. After a hot day under the lights it's time to turn in, so I tuck the guys into their beds and
head home to unwind. Tonight I rented Sleepless in Seattle. I always cry at Sleepless. Then it's bedtime, and boy, am I pooped! So I turn out the
lights, and get ready to do it all again tomorrow. Good Night!
 
So, as you can see..in The State, I'm not "The Girl." I'm just Kerri.
 
Mike B: (In ski suit) Kerri, I can't zip this.
 
Kerri: Oh, okay sweetheart, I'll be right there.
 
Mike B: I love you, Kerri!
 
Kerri: I love you too honey. A woman's work is never done. Enjoy the show!
 
Dreamboy
 
Kerri: I knew a rideshare across country would come with some surprises. The biggest one was named George.
 
George (Kevin): Wanna know something? The second I saw you, I couldn't help but think, "Now there's the kind of girl I'd call a real lemon." Let's
go.
 
Kerri: It was at that moment that I first felt truly alive.
 
(He drives off without her)
Kerri: Wait! Wait!
 
(In car)
George: You know, they oughta make a stained-glass portrait of me with a halo for driving you cross-country. I mean, I knew I was bringing the
dishes on this trip, I didn't know about the garbage.
 
Kerri: At first I had big misgivings. I wasn't going to fall sucker to another Don Juan.
 
George: You know, you're pretty lousy. Gives me the fits. See? Ack! Ack! See, fits! Ack!
 
Eeeew!
 
Kerri: He was really warming up. He was getting to know me, more and more intimately.
 
George: (looking at photo album) Now, is that your family, or some sort of escape from the kennel shop? Because I swear, they are the most canine
bunch of lookin' mother...I don't even wanna talk about it.
 
AAAHHH! Oh. Forgot I was with you, forgot I was with you.
 
Oh, you baked for the trip, huh? That's terrific. I mean, I'd rather eat the tail end off a skunk. You know, a little stanky skunky?
 
Kerri: The trip was nearing an end, and I couldn't bear it. My Romeo, My Romeo!
 
George's sock puppet: I don't like you so much. For one, you're stinky, and for two, you don't smell so nice!
 
George: I'm with you pal, I'm with you.
 
Hey, I wanna make a toast. Here's to you. (takes a sip of milk, and spits it all over)
 
Kerri: Inevitably, our wonderful trip had to come to an end, and fate took its natural course.
 
(they walk out of a chapel, just married, and he drives off without her.)
 
George: Say, you wanna hear my impression of a walrus? Aaahhhh. The walrus is you!
 
Precinct
 
Tom: Not a very funny day, here at the old police precinct. We're in one of our moods. Maybe you should just move along.
 
All: Move along, move along.
 
Ben: Go to something else.
 
Polar Bears
 
Stan (Ken): All right Polar bears, all right! here's to another sub-zero swim!
 
All: Whoo-hoo!
 
Stan: Membership is up twenty percent this year!
 
All: Whoo-hoo!
 
Stan: Congress is made up of the senate and the house of representatives!
 
All: Whoo-hoo!
 
Stan: Okay, put Charlie next to the fire, warm him up a bit.
 
Mike B: You can put Charlie next to the fire all you want, but it's not gonna get his heart pumping again.
 
Joe: He's dead!
 
All: Whoo-hoo!
 
Stan: Sure, sure, but I was thinking, we all got pretty hungry swimming around out there, and uh..Virgil forgot to call the caterers for our usual hot
buffet.
 
Virgil (Kevin): I was going to, but my phone melted when I was welding!
 
All: Hey!
 
Stan: Well, I was thinking that, if nobody minded, we could heat up Charlie and make our own buffet! Whadaya say?
 
All: Yahoo!
 
MIke B: Wait a minute, wait a minute. Are you suggesting that we eat Charlie because Virgil forgot to call the caterers?
 
Joe: No, we're suggesting we eat Charlie because we're hungry. Stan was blaming Virgil.
 
Virgil: I was welding I tell ya! Welding my phone!
 
Ben: Yahoo! Yipee, eee..ack..ack..(choking, runs to get water)
 
Stan: Polar Bears in favor of eating Charlie?
 
All: I!
 
Mike B: Hold on a second, what about his family?
 
Stan: We're not that hungry!
 
All: Ha ha ha ha ha!
 
Stan: Pete Rose!
 
All: Hey!
 
Kerri: Pete rose, what?
 
Tom: Let's eat!
 
All: Okay!
 
Mike B: Stop! I will not let you desecrate the body of our good friend Charlie!
 
All: Yeah!
 
Kerri: I agree with it, but I don't know why!
 
All: Yeah!
 
Stan: All right, Polar Bears, I have another idea!
Instead of eating Charlie, let's give him a proper burial!
 
All: Whoo-hoo!
 
Stan: At sea!
 
All: Whoo-hoo!
 
Stan: And then let's wash my car!
 
All: booo...booo!
 
Stan: Pete Rose!
 
All: Whoo-hoo!

Ray Gun
 
Kerri: Hi. You caught us at a pretty funny day here at the old police precinct. I think some antics are going in (?) soup- just watch!
 
Sarge (Todd): And last on this morning's agenda, the cleaning staff has asked that we not throw our cigarette butts in the urinals. Oh, and one more
thing, one more thing...uhh...there is a new weapon out on the streets, a ray gun (holds up ray gun) and if you are shot with this, you will be killed
instantly, so let's be careful out there.
 
Ken: Whoa, whoa, Sarge, can you expand on that?
 
Sarge: Well, hey. Look guys, I don't care where you put your cigarette butts, but the cleaning ladies, they gotta--
 
Joe: No, no, the ray gun. What happens if you get shot with them?
 
Sarge: Oh, that. Well, If you get shot, every molecule in your body will become excited, and you will be disintegrated.
 
Ben: Sarge, what do you mean when you say every molecule in my body's gonna be excited?
 
Sarge: Ahh. Imagine a hot air popcorn popper. The unpopped kernels sit in the bottom of the popper, hot air is applied, causing them to move about
excitedly until they pop.
 
Mike S: Sarge, my honey and I still use a hot oil popper, does the metaphor still work?
 
Sarge: Yes, the metaphor is the same.
 
Kevin: How much oil should I use in that scenario?
 
Sarge: An eighth of an inch, in the kind of pot you'd use to make a stew in.
 
Kerri: Sarge, I like stew.
 
All: I like stew... I love stew.
 
Tom: What about goulash, I like goulash.
 
Sarge: That may be, but you can't pop goulash.
 
Pappa Goulash (David): Me??
 
Sarge: Not you Pappa Goulash!
Now, does everybody understand the popcorn-ray gun metaphor?
 
Ben: Sarge, I think all of my molecules are getting excited.
 
All: Me, too... mine, too! Whoa! Whoa!
 
Sarge: Whoa!! Who feels like a cigarette? Great! To the urinals! Pappa Goulash, a little morgue music.
 
Pappa G: (Playing the trombone.)
 
(in the bathroom , throwing cigarette butts in the urinals)
Sarge: Doug, we're not gonna arrest ya, everything's okay!
 
Louie (Ken): Hey everybody!
 
Narrator: Due to illness, for the next several seconds, the part of Doug, usually played by Michael Showalter, will be played by Louie.
 
Sarge: (answering phone) Doug, it's your dad, he wants to talk to you.
 
Louie: Whatever! I--am--outta here!!
 
Doug IV
 
Doug (Mike S.): You wanted to talk to me dad?
 
Dad (Tom): Yeah Doug, come on in. What that thing in your nose?
 
Doug: It's a nose ring dad, what are you gonna do, cut off my nose ring and spite my face? I'm Doug! Forget it, you don't understand. I'm outta here.
 
Dad: Hey! Cut me some slack "G." I do understand, and when you have a son then you'll understand, too. Why don't you think about that for a
minute huh? Hey, you guys wanna see my greenhouse?
 
Friends: Yeah...
 
Doug: Me, a dad..me a dad, me a dad...(daydreaming)
 
Dave (Ben): Hi dad, Hi grandpa. You wanted to talk to me?
 
Doug: Yeah Dave, I do. Where were you last night Dave?
 
Dave: Under the bridge, carving my name in my girlfriend's arm. It's called young love warden (?) you wouldn't understand. Forget it, I'm takin'
her!
 
Doug's Dad: I remember a shy little boy named Doug who said something very similar.
 
Doug: Hey hey, Dave, it's okay. Tattoos are cool. Your mom and I did the same thing, see? [Lifts sleeve and shows "KAREN" carved into his arm.]
 
Dad (grandpa?): Me and grandma, too. [Lifts shirt, and shows "CAROL" carved on his chest.]
 
Dave: Oh, just because we all have tattoos, now it's like Tango and Cash. This buddy movie doesn't have a happy ending, dad. And the special
effects suck! Forget it, I'm takin' her!
 
Doug: Hey whippersnapper, not so fast. You're Dave and I'm Doug, and I'm also your dad, but I'm still Doug, and I know it's hard being a kid.
 
Dave: I'm Dave, dad, not Doug. Right dad's dad?
 
Dad: Let him go Doug, Dave's Dave.
 
Doug: Hey. I'm Doug, Dave's dad, and I know how to raise Dave, dad!
 
Dave: Oh, here we go again, Doug Doug Dave, and I'm the goose every time. Make the goose clean the goose's room, goose do this, goose do that!
 
Doug: Hey-hey..you're not the goose! The goose 'tis I. 'Tis Doug whose downy feathers have 'ere been ruffled. Forget it I'm outta here.
 
Dave: No way dad, it's your house! I'm outta here!
 
Dad: He's right Doug. Dave should be outta here.
 
Doug: Fine, go.
 
Dave: Oh, I get it. Throw me to the walls and I'll be an orphan like Oliver Twist, but without the Twist. Just Oliver. You wouldn't understand, I'm
Oliver!
 
Doug: Hey Dave, can you just pick one exit line and stick to it?
 
Dad: He's right. It'll catch on much faster.
 
Dave: I'm working on it. Sheesh! Come on guys, let's go.
 
Friend (Joe): Uhh....Dave, I think we're gonna hang here with your dad, Doug, and Doug's dad, Don, if ya dig?
 
Dave: Whatever. I'm making a beelii---iiine for the doooooooo---ooo----oooor, door!
 
Dad: You guys wanna crank call Neil young?
 
Friends: Yeah....
 
Doug: I'm outta here.
 
(daydream ends)
 
Dad: So, did you think about it?
 
Doug: Yeah, and you're right. Dads do understand.
 
Dad: See? I told you so.
 
Doug: Oh, I get it. So I guess that means you're always right and I'm always wrong. Dads are Dads and Dougs are Dougs and never the Twain (?)
shall meet. Forget it, I'm outta heeere!
 
Don's Dad (David): (enters) Hey son, how's Doug?
 
Don: I don't know Rumplestiltskin. How's Geezerville? Forget it, I'm splittin!
 
Don's Dad: Jello shots guys?
 
Friends: yeah...
 
Froggie Jamboree
 
Tom: Hi, Kerri and I wrote a skit called "Froggie Jamboree" and the rest of The State didn't like it, and they sort of got sick of us asking to do it, so
we said, can we do it under the credits, and they said, you know "Do whatever the hell you want to do." So, without any further ado...the credits,
and Froggie Jamboree
