Stop. How are you feeling?
I'm doing good. I'm doing...
It is what it is. I...
So, what happened with your tests?
Laura, let's not talk about all that.
What did the doctor say?
The Swedish Nazi? He
never has good news.
It is what it is. I don't
want to talk about it.
Come on, let's just talk about you.
What are you doing, Laura?
Do you want me to talk you to sleep?
Oh, my God. You remember.
You want me to do that for you?
You will talk to me while
I try to go to sleep?
I'll put you on speakerphone. That
will be the best night of my life.
Let's not go to sleep yet,
though, please. Just talk to Laura.
IRA:
Hello?Hi, lra.
Hey, how's it going?
Ira, you're my best friend.
(LAUGHS) I like you, too.
You're my best friend.
You sound like you're
in a good mood, man.
(lMlTATlNG PlRATE) I'm in a great
mood because we're setting sail today.
We're gonna do a gig together!
Ira and Georgie, finally on the road!
Oh, we're setting sail, are
we? Where, where are we going?
We're going to the Port of San
Francisco. We set sail on the morrow.
How much time am I supposed to do?
Oh, they've booked you to do a minute
for every inch of cock you have.
You'll be doing two and
a half to four minutes,
depending on your mood, little Ira.
I was invited to a... Or I
was able to go to a fundraiser
for Barack Obama, when he
was running for president.
And you could walk right
up to him and I did.
And I prepared a smart
question and I was like,
"Senator Obama, when you were a student
in Boston, did you encounter any racism?"
And he said something really,
really interesting. He said...
He said, "I'm Kanye West. "
(AUDlENCE LAUGHlNG)
George, you have a visitor.
GEORGE:
Oh.Hi. Whoa!
LAURA:
Hello. Wow.Hey, hi! Hey!
All right. How are you?
LAURA:
I'm good.I'm so psyched you came.
Wow, you look amazing! Thank you.
Beautiful. I think I overdressed.
No way. You look incredible.
I just...
Where... Where is he?
Where is the Clarke?
The Clarke? He's out of town. I was
gonna bring my friend Betsy with me,
but her son started throwing up, so...
The husband's out of town,
baby's vomiting. Rock 'n' roll.
(LAUGHlNG) I like it. Yeah. Yeah.
Anyway, I don't want to keep you
or get in the way.
No, don't run away.
Come on, lra, say hello.
Hey, lra.
Hey, how's it going?
So, I'll let you go. I
just wanted to say hi.
No cursing. Don't curse so much.
Okay, all right! Nothing
dirty. I don't know how.
You just cut my set in half, but
that's fine. All right, see you, kid.
Okay, good luck.
Thanks for coming.
You gotta tell her I'm better
at intermission, all right?
You haven't told her that you're better?
No, I'm not good at stuff like that.
Just... She'll be cool
with it. She'll be...
You're giving her good
news, she'll be happy.
We're gonna go by her
house tomorrow, too.
(SlGHS)
Yeah, we're just visiting
her. I just want to say hi,
see how she's doing, where
she lives, that kind of thing.
Why did you guys break
up in the first place?
I cheated on her.
It's easy not to cheat when no one
wants to f*** you, you judgmental prick.
Okay.
I have a theory that Tom Cruise,
David Beckham and Will Smith
have mooshed the heads
of their penises together.
(AUDlENCE LAUGHlNG)
I think that this has happened.
I don't think it happened in a gay way.
I think it just happened out of boredom.
I think just rich-dude boredom.
Just like, "What have we not
done, guys? We've done everything!"
"I'll tell you one
thing we haven't done. "
And I bet when it happened, it was
an epic occurrence. It was huge.
I think of it all the time.
I think first, you know, David
and Tom touched dick heads.
And it was easy, just zoonk. Because
there was a magnetic field to it.
And then Will Smith started
approaching with his dick
and, like, wind started
blowing in his face,
and paper started flying everywhere
and he just couldn't do it.
And they're like, "Come
on, Will, get it in there!"
"I can't do it!"
Beckham yells,
(IN BRITISH ACCENT) "Don't cross the
streams! It's like Ghost Busters!"
And then he does it and
Flash by Queen starts playing.
It's just, Flash! Ahhh!
Light shoots into the sky! That's
how stars are born, I think.
Anyway, I'm Ira Wright. Have a good
night. Thank you, all, very much.
IRA:
Hey. How's it going?That was so good!
You seem so surprised.
Well, you looked so nervous before.
I was, actually.
That was good. That was really good.
Thank you. I appreciate that.
And the ball cleavage
thing, that was hilarious.
Classic stuff. Thank you.
Glad you're having fun.
George says that he's known
you for a while. How did...
Yeah. How did you guys first hook up?
I was the hat-check girl at
the lmprov and I was an actress.
So, you kind of... Yeah, yeah.
That's good. What, were you
in anything I might've seen?
I did those, like,
Melrose Place and 90210.
Awesome.
I wasn't that good, actually.
No, you must be a great actress,
'cause you're not at all bitchy, so...
(LAUGHS)
Thanks, lra.
Okay, look, I'm not... Honestly,
I'm not supposed to be telling you
what I'm about to tell you because
George... He doesn't want to jinx it.
It's not 100%, but the last
time that he went to the doctor,
they couldn't find any trace of the
disease in his blood work anymore,
so it seems like he might be better.
What are you talking about?
ANNOUNCER:
Ladies and gentlemen......George Simmons!
(AUDlENCE CHEERlNG)
Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you. Yeah.
It's great to be here.
It's great. It's great to be alive!
Yeah, man. Thank you. Right on. Okay.
MAN:
Thank you for coming, George!Thank you. All right.
That's very nice. Man, oh, man.
Any other 40-year-olds out
there tonight? In their 40s?
It's funny. In your 20s you're like,
"F*** you, man. F*** that sh*t.
"F*** my parents. I don't
need none of that sh*t. "
In your 30s you're like,
"F*** the President.
"F*** that guy, that f***ing a**hole. "
In your 40s you're like, "I'm hungry.
(AUDlENCE LAUGHlNG)
"What do we have in the fridge?"
So, yeah, I'm f***ing famous
and rich, and it's crazy.
It's... You know why?
'Cause I hate rich people.
F***ing I'm rich and I hate rich people.
I hate everything I f***ing do now.
I go to Hawaii, I'm like,
"You f***ing snotty
cocksucker, going to Hawaii. "
Buy a new car, "La-di-da,
look who's got a new car. "
You know, I thought about giving
all my money, just giving it away,
but then I was like, "What
a rich-guy thing to do.
"Mr. Charitable. "
(ALL LAUGHlNG)
Well, why didn't you
tell me? I was just here.
Laura, if I told you, you might not
have talked to me anymore, so l...
What are you talking
about? That's ridiculous.
I knew you forgave me because I was sick
and there was no other
way you would forgive me.
I know, but it's different now.
We've been talking...
What are you... No!
