Scene 1. Buiten in de rij.
Mini meisje met enorme grote mond loopt langs iedereen met papieren, pen en blocnote. Aan haar riem hangt professioneel een walky-talky die regelmatig bliepgeluiden maak. Met hoge stemt:
HEY guys! So great to see you! How are we doing today? Good? That's Grreat! Thanks for coming! Are you a party of two? Here are you're seating tickets. Have a GRREAT time ya'll!
Het meisje loopt door naar de volgende personen in de rij en herhaalt met hetzelfde uitputtende enthousiasme en stemgeluid precies dezelfde woorden.
Scene 2. Ontvangstruimte
Mini meisje wordt door stoere bodyguard op een balie getild:
HI EVERYBODY! Welcome at The Colbert Report! Are you all exited to be here? -honderdentien mensen juichen - That is GRREAT! In a minute, you're all going into the studio's for the taping, and of course we need you to be exited! Are You EXITED? - honderdentien mensen juichen weer - Grreat! Inside the studio you canNOT eat, drink or use any recording equipment. If you do, one of the security guys can confiscate your equipment and that would be, well, A BUMMER! - honderdentien mensen lachen - So first, you're getting a warm-up by a real STAND-UP Comedian (noemt totaal onbekende naam). Isn't that GRREAT? - wederom gejuich - You're going to have So Much Fun! And then, Stephen will come out and TALK to you Guys! OUT OF CHARACTER! How Cool is that! - honderdentien mensen gaan uit hun dak - You'll be able to ask him some questions. BUT you cannot give him something or ask him to sign something for you. And you cannot ask him certain question. Questins concerning everything underneath the waist and above the knees, you better keep to yourself - honderdentien mensen lachen - So, just a Few More Minutes Guys. LET'S HAVE SOME FUN!
Scene 3: ingang studioruimte
Jongen met oortjes in stapt op doos en spreekt het publiek toe:
HI EVERYBODY! Welcome at The Colbert Report! Are you all exited to be here? -honderdentien mensen juichen - That is GREAT! In a minute, you're all going into the studio's for the taping, and of course we need you to be exited! Are You EXITED? - honderdentien mensen juichen weer- So we all need you to be VERY EXITED - nog meer gejuich. That's Great! Stephen is a stand-up comedian, but he needs YOU as an audience to help him. The more you support him and cheer, the BETTER the show will be. And that is what we ALL want, right? A GREAT SHOW! - nog meer gejuich - I'm going to let you in in just a minute, and we're going to do that in numerological order. First, people with number one to thirteen please, ONE to THIRTHEEN. - mensen wachten braaf tot hun nummer wordt omgeroepen en schuifelen de studio in - HAVE A GREAT TIME GUYS!
Scene 4: in de studio
Stand-up comedian tijdens de opwarming
Hey GUYS, we need you to be very EXITED of course, and I KNOW you ARE, but sometimes, we need you to go Apeshit. For example, when I introduce Stephen to you, you really have to go apeshit and stand up and clap and yell for him. That will give him the energy to make it a GREAT SHOW, and that is what YOU came for, RIGHT? - honderdentien mensen lachen en klappen - And then, sometimes we just need you to enjoy yourself without going apeshit, but we need you to enjoy yourself LOUD - mensen klappen en juichen - Because Stephen needs to hear you, and the people that whatch the show on tv need to hear you too. So if you're having a GREAT time, show it! And if you are not enjoying yourself, if you like don't have any sence of humour, you can always follow your neighbour - mensen lachen - you know, when your neighbour laughs, YOU laugh too!
So, since we cannot be sure that you go apeshit when we need you to, here's Tom the floormanager - publiek klapt - who will show you when you need to go apeshit. Let's practise one time, Tom can you make the gesture? -Tom telt af, maakt een zwaaiend gebaar met het script in zijn handen en honderdenelf mensen staan op om te klappen, te juichen en te joelen - THAT is GREAT guys, keep doing that later! So, you're about to meet Stephen OUT OF CHARACHTER! Please tell me you all know it's a CHARACTER! - publiek lacht en klapt - We are ready to start, are YOU ready? - honderdenelf mensen juichen - Well, than, GIVE IT UP FOOOORRRRR.......STEPHEN COLBERT!!!!!!! -honderdenelf mensen gaan apeshit terwijl The Man de studio in komt rennen.
