The Love Guru
When I was a child in India,
growing up in the tiny village
of Harenmahkeester,
I found a voice-over machine,
which I still use to this day.
Oh, hi.
I decided to use
the Morgan Freeman setting.
I am His Holiness the Guru Pitka.
In my book, If You're Happy
and You Know it, Think Again,
I speak of intimacy, or "into-me-l-see."
Intimacy is like putting your wiener
on the table and having someone say,
"That looks like a penis, only smaller."
Only smaller.
Though I was raised here in India,
I was born in America,
which is where our journey begins.
It's the story of a hockey player
named Darren Roanoke,
my most resistant student,
who became my greatest teacher.
Or some such bullshit. I don't know.
Gotta go!
- Hi, I'm Trent Lueders!
- And I'm Jay Kell.
Tonight is all about champions.
But before we get going,
I'd like to start by thanking
my own personal champions.
The fans who supported me
with their cards and letters
during my recent addiction
to peyote buttons and Frangelico.
I've already apologized to my friends,
my family, and my god.
And now, I'd like to apologize
to Dame Judi Dench
for my vicious and brutal attack.
I'm sorry, Judi, you did not deserve that,
and I hope the staples come out soon.
Over to you, Trent.
Thanks, Jay!
Tonight, the Toronto Maple Leafs'
Darren Roanoke
is the subject of our player profile.
Hockey has its legends.
Now, the new one, Darren Roanoke.
Known as the Tiger Woods of hockey,
Roanoke brought the sport
to a whole new audience.
- Hey, yo, check this, son!
- Check this!
A role model turned bad boy.
He was in a perfect marriage.
But before the playoffs,
he stunned the world
by separating from his wife, Prudence.
From role model to dating models.
Roanoke found out his wife, Prudence,
was dating the L.A. Kings' legendary
French-Canadian goalie,
Jacques "Le Coq" Grande.
He earned his nickname, "Le Coq,"
for reasons that cannot be stated
on this program.
This interview is over.
Holy...
That's when Roanoke fell apart.
Roanoke is hit hard.
Open net! He misses!
Damn, damn, damn!
But the question on everyone's mind is,
can the Leafs win without Roanoke?
Well, can we win the Cup
without Roanoke?
Not a chance, boss.
As long as Jacques "Le Coq" Grande
is banging Darren's wife,
Darren's toast.
My father once told me the Yankees
hired a guru to turn their team around.
I have our guru.
If he can fix Darren, we win the Cup.
They call him the Love Guru.
Tumble out of bed
and I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
Yawning, stretching, try to come to life
Jump in the shower
and the blood starts pumping
Out on the streets
the traffic starts jumping
With folks like me on the job
from 9:
00 to 5:00Working 9:
00 to 5:00What a way to make a living
Barely getting by
it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind
and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy
if you let it
They let your dream
just to watch them shatter
You're just a step
on the boss man's ladder
But you've got dreams
he'll never take away
You're in the same boat
with a lot of your friends
Waiting for the day
your ship will come in
And the tide's gonna turn
and it's all gonna roll your way
Working 9:
00 to 5:00for service and devotion
You would think that I
would deserve a fair promotion
Want to move ahead
but the boss won't seem to let me
I swear sometimes
that man is out to get me
Working 9:
00 to 5:00What a way to make a living
Barely getting by
it's all taking and no giving
They just use your mind
and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy
if you let it
Working 9:

Working 9:
00 to 5:00, yeah!Here we go, here we go.
Mariska Hargitay, Speedy. Yeah.
Ride 'em, cowboy.
Mariska Hargitay, Your Holiness.
Rajneesh! Mariska Hargitay.
Your manager Richard Pants is here.
Dick Pants. Send him in.
Mariska Hargitay, Your Holiness.
Have you seen today's paper?
Oh, don't tell me,
it's another article about
Deepak Chopra being number one
and me being number two?
Not in as many words.
Quaking pudding! I can't take this!
Not again! What? Why, why?
Babu, to be the world's second
most popular
Neo-Eastern-Self-Help-Spiritualist
is no small thing.
Thank you, Rajneesh.
You are my compass.
Give me a pound.
Lock it down.
Break the pickle.
Tickle, tickle.
- You!
- You!
- Well, no, you!
- You!
No, no, no! You!
Okay. You!
No! You!
Stop it!
Who's the gift basket from, Dick?
Brad and Angelina.
It says,
"Thank you for the gift of true intimacy,
"but we've decided
to work with Deepak instead."
What does Deepak Chopra have
that I don't have?
He's been on Oprah.
Oprah!
And Oprah loves a great story.
Now, take a look at this.
The Toronto Maple Leafs
will pay you $2 million,
if you can get Darren Roanoke
back with his wife
in time to win the Stanley Cup.
Two million dollars!
That's a lot of cheese.
But wait, it gets better!
I spoke to Oprah's producers,
and if you can restore
Darren Roanoke's marriage,
they guarantee
that you will be on her show!
Let me get this straight.
If I fix their marriage, I get on Oprah,
and if I get on Oprah,
I'm the next Deepak Chopra!
Deepak Chopra. Maurice Pitka.
Please enter the ashram
of the Guru Tugginmypudha.
Guru Tugginmypudha,
you are so good with nunchucks,
yet you are blind.
I am not blind.
I am just severely cross-eyed.
I know, it is weird.
Be seated.
Deepak, here you go.
Maurice, you're not of Indian blood.
Speak of your parents.
They are both dead.
They were missionaries.
And what did they do before then?
They were dog stylists.
So, let me get this straight.
They were into doggy style
before the missionary position?
That's hilarious.
My parents are dead. Thanks.
Deepak,
why do you want to join
the Tugginmypudha Ashram?
To seek my true self.
All right, kiss ass.
Maurice, why do you want to join?
I want to become a guru
so girls will like me.
Then I will like myself.
Deepak, you will enjoy love in all forms.
Maurice, you must
wear this chastity belt.
Chastity belt? That sucks!
Once you have learned
that self-love is more important
than being loved by others,
you may remove the belt.
Master, if I am not allowed
to be with a woman, may I still...
You will go cross-eyed!
Guaranteed.
- Mariska Hargitay. Yeah.
- Mariska Hargitay.
I am His Holiness, the Guru Pitka.
Welcome to my ashram,
the Ecumenical Intuitive Enlightenment
Initiative Organization,
or EIEIO.
- Guru Pitka had a farm.
- EIEIO.
- And on that farm, he did no harm.
- EIEIO.
Okay.
If I sit like this any longer,
I'm gonna pop my dink bag.
Listen up. I am a guru.
Let's look at the word "guru," okay?
My goal is to get you to say,
"Gee, you are you."
