[woman speaking indistinctly over PA.]
[chuckles.]
What? - The jig is up, Mike.
- And what jig would that be? The meat jig.
You've got to quit with the beef - and the fatty foods.
- [sighing.]
Your triglycerides are off the charts.
Oh, but I love meat.
Oh, can I still have those No! No turkey, no kosher, no meat.
How about pepperoni pizza? [chuckles.]
This isn't funny, Mike.
I'm not joking and this ain't no show, mister.
I'll see you in a year hopefully.
I'll do my best.
[narrator.]
In the year 1998, two men, one named Bob, the other David, finally finished the run of a little-known comedy program and immediately climbed into this real time travel machine.
They set the clock for the year 2015.
The machine has arrived at the chosen moment and they will now see what their future holds.
[dramatic music playing.]
[audience cheering.]
Here we are.
The year 2015.
It worked! The time machine is real! Hey, they finally made it! Paul F.
Tompkins! John Ennis! Jill! Brian! Jay! You guys are all still hanging around.
[laughing.]
God, Bob, they're so old! Oh, my God, you guys you've seriously aged.
Yeah, uh, well, look at yourselves.
It's disgusting.
Yeah.
You guys are older than us.
We can't be older because we traveled in this time machine.
Uh, we watched you get in that and that was 16 years ago.
Yeah, dude, it just sat there for 16 years.
Jesus, what's that smell? - Oh, uh - Brian, you don't wanna go in - Yeah, that - [Jill.]
Ugh! [retching.]
Oh, my God! Did you guys shit in there for 16 years? But, wait, we did travel in time, right? I mean, you got in that machine 16 years ago and then 16 years passed, so [chuckles.]
No, it's a real time travel machine.
That's what the doctor said.
Yeah, Dr.
Gilly Fartsworth! He was a real doctor.
Maybe what the doctor meant was it was a real-time travel machine.
[Jay.]
Oh, right, there we go.
So, I mean, you did travel through time, but just in real-time.
So, it's, uh it's a box.
That you shit in.
Well, yeah, if you get the deluxe model.
Oh, you guys got ripped off.
David there's one thing we gotta do.
- Take a sh Right? No? - No.
We gotta go back in time 16 years and get our money back from Dr.
Gilly Fartsworth! Whoa, here we are! But is it 16 years ago? [chuckling.]
Whoa, Bob, you look really old.
Well, David, you look really fake-old.
David! Bob! You made it! You traveled back and forth in time! Uh, dude, you sold us a toilet.
I don't know what you're talking about.
You just got inside the real time travel machine a few seconds ago.
David, he's got a point.
We did just travel back in time just now.
- Kind of amazing.
- All right! So I did it! No, you would've done it if we traveled through time without aging the exact amount of time we traveled.
Well, it can do that.
Come on, let me show.
Can I show you? See, that's your control panel, so you can pick which date you want to go to.
You guys have it set to real-time.
That's option one.
Or you can hit this button here, take that hyphen right out of there.
Now you've got a real time travel machine.
And you can travel through time in nanoseconds! - That's it? - That's it.
It's the de-hyphenator.
It's really the most impressive part of the machine.
So, now when we travel through time, we won't age anymore? No! Uh, well, a few minutes or you can hit this button right here.
That activates the age-decreaser.
But I don't know if you'd want anything like that.
Of course we want something like that! Age-decreaser? Yes! Why didn't you tell us? - [Bob.]
Everyone needs one of those.
- Okay, okay! Wow, we did it! We're back in the present.
David? Oh, come on! Just give me a minute, Bob.
I had the lamb jaffir for lunch.
Oh! That's a good one.
[chuckles.]
I'll use that.
- Because you guys bailed on yourselves - Hey, Drew, you in this hand? - Yeah.

Yeah, hang on.

These are real resolutions.
Mine is, too! It's for my health.
Mike, look, I get your sarcasm, okay? You don't think I can be a major film director, so you pitch this no-meat, over-the-top bullshit! I think you're being a shitty friend right now, okay? - I wasn't being sarcastic, I was just - Oh, come on! Mike was being shitty.
Let's end it there.
[Kyle.]
Yeah.
Okay.

- [George.]
Thanks.
- Hey, George, how're you gonna be a judge when you're still on parole? Mike, you're not being very supportive, okay? What? When I said my no-meat thing, you guys gave me nothing.
That's because it's insane! You can learn how to be a judge.
You can't learn how to not like something.
I'll die if I don't do it! I have no choice! Oh, my God! Mike, we didn't support your no-meat thing 'cause it's bullshit and we know you're only gonna last for two seconds 'cause you love pepperoni! So just ease up, learn how to be a good friend, and cut the bullshit! - [George.]

And no nonsense is ever allowed.
Tonight, the defendant, Chazz Maloney, a world-ranked UFC fighter.
Chazz is accused of unprovoked assault and causing bodily harm to the plaintiff Andy Duane, who claims he was brutally attacked and still has the physical and mental scars to show for it.

All remain seated.
Tonight, Judge George "No Nonsense" Jackson is on vacation.
Filling in, Judge Sandy "Some Nonsense" Whistleton.
Your Honor.

- Okay, let's give this a One, two, buckle my shoe.
See how this goes.
All right, what do we have here tonight? Chazz Maloney and Andy Duane.
Uh, one of you is a fighter and, uh, which one's which? - I'm the fighter, sir.
- Don't hit me! - I'm not gonna hit anyone.
- Yeah.
Okay, now I wanna hear both sides, okay? Plaintiff, you, you go first.
He almost killed me, sir.
He broke my nose, he split my lip, he twisted my arm.
My doctor says he hyper-extended both of my elbows.
And he pinned me! Uh, it was all a misunderstanding.
I was in the ring, I had been training for months, waiting for my opponent, and then he just walks in.
No! I didn't go to fight you, okay? Sir, I didn't wanna fight anyone.
Okay, but you were in the ring.
Didn't know it was a ring.
It's a square.
Sir, what kind of a ring is a square? There is no such thing.
That's made up.
Okay.
All right, but it was the only space like that.
I was just taking a shortcut to the goddamn concession area, and then you started banging me around! Okay, well, I'm a fighter.
That's what I do.
I didn't know what was going on in that building.
I just wanted some popcorn and I "That building"? The Staples Center? Whatever it's called.
I don't know the name of every building, sir.
I don't know 'em.
Honest to Pete! I mean, how can anyone be asked to know every single building in Los Angeles? Okay, well, why would you wander into a massive arena? To buy popcorn! I already told you! Don't play the blame game with me.
You'll lose! That's a very good point.
When you talk, I don't wanna hear excuses.
I just wanna hear facts from you.
Okay, well, he was wearing fighting shorts.
I just said it's not your turn to talk! Go ahead.
Fighting shorts are my underwear! I was home alone, I popped out to get popcorn [laughs.]
See, there's two ways to pop.
Judge, shut up.
I was home alone watching the film Home Alone - Can I talk? - Shh.
I popped out to get popcorn.
[shushing.]
I walked across the street.
There was a fella out front.
I asked him if they sold popcorn inside.
He said yes.
So, I paid $49 for a ticket, plus surcharges I went inside, I saw an open area, I walked towards it, climbed through a couple of ropes, and then you started whaling on me! Okay, but he punched me first! Is this true, Mr.
Duane? Did you strike him first? I asked him if they sold popcorn.
He ignored me so, yes, I punched him! He was rude! Okay, I said I was sorry.
You interrupt me one more time and I'll punch you again, brother! Sir, please stay in control.
Okay, all right, stop! Stop it! Stop, stop, stop, stop! Okay.
I'm sorry, you're out of order here, okay? A man walks into your place of business in his pajamas and you start punching him around, give him the old one-two up the kazoo? Uh-uh! Not in my courtroom, Sally Anne.
And you you're right.
When you're right, you're right.
I got to hand it to you, kiddo, you came in here like a house on fire, barnstorming, you made your points.
Good schmuckus on ya.
All right, well, I find for the plaintiff.
Give him whatever he wants, okay? Find out what he wants, give it to him, on me, okay? All right, so that's all for me.

I'm Charlene Boyeur.
My guest tonight is film director Peter Allison Montcrief, whose new film, Better Roots, takes on the most disgraceful chapter in American history, the showing of Roots.
With his multi-part TV film, Better Roots, Peter, welcome.
Charlene, thank you.
Now, the word "dignity," it's not often associated with films about slavery.
Well, we don't use that word.
- Dignity? - No, the other word.
Films? No.
- Associate? - No, the last word you used.
- It starts with the letter "S".
- Slavery! That's the one, yes.
We're trying to move past that.
See, that word has so many negative connotations, you know, if you'd bothered to look it up.
What we've done is we're using the words "helper" and "helping".
You know, 'cause that's what these people did.
They helped build a nation.
- Dignity all around.
- Yeah.
This is a film that you can show in any classroom, and those kids are gonna walk out of there feeling good about themselves, feeling good about their ancestors, feeling great about me, and good about America.
Okay, let's look at a clip.
[orchestral music playing.]
[horse whinnying.]
[Mr.
Dilton.]
Whoa! Whoa! [whistles.]
Lemonade break! [Greeb.]
Here you go.
[Mr.
Dilton.]
Um, if I could take a moment out of your lemonade break, [stammering.]
I'd like to say, thank you on behalf of myself Damn you! Damn you to hell, Dilton! We out here, we're trying to help you and everything, but you slowing us down with all these lemonade breaks and snack times and thank yous.
Don't nobody need no thank you.
Well, you better get used to it, 'cause I'm gonna thank you every day.
You hear me? Dignity, all around! [all cheering and laughing.]
Now, there was a "The End" there.
Is that the end of the film? [chuckling.]
No, Charlene, that'd be ridiculous.
Why would I No, that's the end of the clip.
So, that was just the end of the clip.
Okay, would you say that this is a new take on an old story? Uh, it's an update, nothing more, you know.
That's all it is, really.
We're showing a side that's never been shown.
I'd like to ask you about the scene where the slaves are getting paid.
Helpers! Helpers.
Yes.
Let's watch.
[Mr.
Dilton.]
Tunde! [clears throat and coughs.]
Aren't you gonna sign for it? Oh yes, Mr.
Dilton.
Mr.
Dilton is my father.
My name's Jody.
Thank you, Jody.
[Jody.]
Not so fast.
Now, I heard somebody said something about somebody in the field.
A helper gettin' all high and mighty, and tellin' how they be doing twice the work of the other helper.
Maybe even more work than old Greeb here.
Yeah.
You don't know nothing about that, now do you? No, sir Jody.
I just do my job best I can, do school at night so I can become a lawyer, and then President of the United States one day, and keep my mouth shut.
Then you don't know nothing about nothing, they talked to nobody no how, is that it? Yes.
Well, good.
[chuckles.]
- Then I musta got the right helper.
- [chuckles.]
You got something special in your pay packet.
Open it up.
I can't read so good.
Can you read that to me? It say [reading.]
- You wanna collect on that now? - [chuckles.]
- [Tunde.]
I would, sir.
- Oh, I'm so glad you said yes.
Come on, Greeb, get in on this hug.
- All righty.
I'm in there.
- Come on, Greeb.
- I need a friend.
- [Jody.]
Nobody hugs like old Greeb.
[stammers.]
He just thought he was getting money.
Well, now that is an uplifting ending.
No, that's the end of the clip.
[stammers.]
I put "The End" over the end of the clips so you wouldn't get confused.
You know, I don't want people to watch this show and think this show is part of the movie.
That's why I put "The End" over the clips, so they would know.
Otherwise Now, your detractors are saying that you've whitewashed things.
Okay, well, that's racist.
As a white man, I find that insulting, and it feels like I'm being personally attacked.
And look, we don't shy away from the brutality of helperism.
- Slavery.
- That's your word, okay? We have a brutal whipping scene in here which is, uh, quite frankly, unforgiving, you know.
Show that, why don't you? Get off my ass for a fucking second.
- [grunting.]
- [groaning.]
- [chuckles.]
- [gun fires.]
[Jody.]
Hear, hear! What the hell are you doing? You're hurting him! What? It wasn't - What the hell you doin'? - It wasn't me, it's this whip here.
The whip? I followed the instructions to the letter.
Let me see 'em.
- It's right here.
- Show me the instruction.
- They made this thing too shaky.
- Shut up, now.
Greeb, what the heck you done? Which end did you hold? I helded this end.
- And then you hit him with - I hit him with the wraggly end.
I don't care about that.
You untie him.
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry, Mr.
Dilton.
I'm so sorry.
You all right there? I didn't mean to do nothing.
I can't remember how I tied this.
Get it off.
Okay, is that better? There we go.
Okay.
- Now, Greeb - Yes, sir.
You know what you gotta do.
Yes, I reckon I do, sir.
I need to return this here whip.
It almost really hurt this helper.
[sighs.]
[country music playing.]
Now that just said "The End" twice.
Yes, it's the end of the movie and the end of the clip.
Fascinating.
Tomorrow night, my guest will be America's premiere sci-fi director, Kyle Buggins, whose new film has become, in just a few short weeks, the highest-grossing film ever made.
Trans-Form-Bots, about transsexual robots that can switch their sexual identities at will, and switch back also, or not be robots at all either even.
[announcer.]
The Charlene Boyeur Show is funded in part by Zimble Internation Phones.
[narrator reading.]
Mike said I couldn't do it.
[sighs.]
They did it.
Every single one of 'em.

[woman over PA.]
Code blue.
Room 305.
The decision did not go in your favor.
Uh, your reaction? Well, the decision is one thing, uh For me, uh, I found that the amount of nonsense was of a greater degree than I had been led to believe it would be.
Thank you.
And the decision did go in your favor and your reaction? I think it was the exact right amount of nonsense.
[chuckles.]
What? - The jig is up, Mike.
- And what jig would that be? The meat jig.
You've got to quit with the beef - and the fatty foods.
- [sighing.]
Your triglycerides are off the charts.
Oh, but I love meat.
Oh, can I still have those No! No turkey, no kosher, no meat.
How about pepperoni pizza? [chuckles.]
This isn't funny, Mike.
I'm not joking and this ain't no show, mister.
I'll see you in a year hopefully.
I'll do my best.
[narrator.]
In the year 1998, two men, one named Bob, the other David, finally finished the run of a little-known comedy program and immediately climbed into this real time travel machine.
They set the clock for the year 2015.
The machine has arrived at the chosen moment and they will now see what their future holds.
[dramatic music playing.]
[audience cheering.]
Here we are.
The year 2015.
It worked! The time machine is real! Hey, they finally made it! Paul F.

[laughing.]
God, Bob, they're so old! Oh, my God, you guys you've seriously aged.
Yeah, uh, well, look at yourselves.
It's disgusting.
Yeah.
You guys are older than us.
We can't be older because we traveled in this time machine.
Uh, we watched you get in that and that was 16 years ago.
Yeah, dude, it just sat there for 16 years.
Jesus, what's that smell? - Oh, uh - Brian, you don't wanna go in - Yeah, that - [Jill.]
Ugh! [retching.]
Oh, my God! Did you guys shit in there for 16 years? But, wait, we did travel in time, right? I mean, you got in that machine 16 years ago and then 16 years passed, so [chuckles.]
No, it's a real time travel machine.
That's what the doctor said.
Yeah, Dr.
Gilly Fartsworth! He was a real doctor.
Maybe what the doctor meant was it was a real-time travel machine.
[Jay.]
Oh, right, there we go.
So, I mean, you did travel through time, but just in real-time.
So, it's, uh it's a box.
That you shit in.
Well, yeah, if you get the deluxe model.
Oh, you guys got ripped off.
David there's one thing we gotta do.
- Take a sh Right? No? - No.
We gotta go back in time 16 years and get our money back from Dr.
Gilly Fartsworth! Whoa, here we are! But is it 16 years ago? [chuckling.]
Whoa, Bob, you look really old.
Well, David, you look really fake-old.
David! Bob! You made it! You traveled back and forth in time! Uh, dude, you sold us a toilet.
I don't know what you're talking about.
You just got inside the real time travel machine a few seconds ago.
David, he's got a point.
We did just travel back in time just now.
- Kind of amazing.
- All right! So I did it! No, you would've done it if we traveled through time without aging the exact amount of time we traveled.
Well, it can do that.
Come on, let me show.
Can I show you? See, that's your control panel, so you can pick which date you want to go to.
You guys have it set to real-time.
That's option one.
Or you can hit this button here, take that hyphen right out of there.
Now you've got a real time travel machine.
And you can travel through time in nanoseconds! - That's it? - That's it.
It's the de-hyphenator.
It's really the most impressive part of the machine.
So, now when we travel through time, we won't age anymore? No! Uh, well, a few minutes or you can hit this button right here.
That activates the age-decreaser.
But I don't know if you'd want anything like that.
Of course we want something like that! Age-decreaser? Yes! Why didn't you tell us? - [Bob.]
Everyone needs one of those.
- Okay, okay! Wow, we did it! We're back in the present.
David? Oh, come on! Just give me a minute, Bob.
I had the lamb jaffir for lunch.
Oh! That's a good one.
[chuckles.]
I'll use that.
- Because you guys bailed on yourselves - Hey, Drew, you in this hand? - Yeah.
- [Drew.]
Yeah, hang on.
[grunting.]
Geez! Your toilet smells like a time machine! [all laughing.]

- Don't hit me! - I'm not gonna hit anyone.

Okay, now I wanna hear both sides, okay? Plaintiff, you, you go first.
He almost killed me, sir.
He broke my nose, he split my lip, he twisted my arm.
My doctor says he hyper-extended both of my elbows.
And he pinned me! Uh, it was all a misunderstanding.
I was in the ring, I had been training for months, waiting for my opponent, and then he just walks in.
No! I didn't go to fight you, okay? Sir, I didn't wanna fight anyone.
Okay, but you were in the ring.
Didn't know it was a ring.
It's a square.
Sir, what kind of a ring is a square? There is no such thing.
That's made up.

That's what I do.
I didn't know what was going on in that building.
I just wanted some popcorn and I "That building"? The Staples Center? Whatever it's called.
I don't know the name of every building, sir.
I don't know 'em.
Honest to Pete! I mean, how can anyone be asked to know every single building in Los Angeles? Okay, well, why would you wander into a massive arena? To buy popcorn! I already told you! Don't play the blame game with me.
You'll lose! That's a very good point.
When you talk, I don't wanna hear excuses.
I just wanna hear facts from you.
Okay, well, he was wearing fighting shorts.
I just said it's not your turn to talk! Go ahead.
Fighting shorts are my underwear! I was home alone, I popped out to get popcorn [laughs.]
See, there's two ways to pop.
Judge, shut up.
I was home alone watching the film Home Alone - Can I talk? - Shh.
I popped out to get popcorn.
[shushing.]
I walked across the street.
There was a fella out front.
I asked him if they sold popcorn inside.
He said yes.
So, I paid $49 for a ticket, plus surcharges I went inside, I saw an open area, I walked towards it, climbed through a couple of ropes, and then you started whaling on me! Okay, but he punched me first! Is this true, Mr.
Duane? Did you strike him first? I asked him if they sold popcorn.
He ignored me so, yes, I punched him! He was rude! Okay, I said I was sorry.
You interrupt me one more time and I'll punch you again, brother! Sir, please stay in control.
Okay, all right, stop! Stop it! Stop, stop, stop, stop! Okay.
I'm sorry, you're out of order here, okay? A man walks into your place of business in his pajamas and you start punching him around, give him the old one-two up the kazoo? Uh-uh! Not in my courtroom, Sally Anne.

I'm Charlene Boyeur.
My guest tonight is film director Peter Allison Montcrief, whose new film, Better Roots, takes on the most disgraceful chapter in American history, the showing of Roots.
With his multi-part TV film, Better Roots, Peter, welcome.
Charlene, thank you.
Now, the word "dignity," it's not often associated with films about slavery.
Well, we don't use that word.
- Dignity? - No, the other word.
Films? No.
- Associate? - No, the last word you used.
- It starts with the letter "S".
- Slavery! That's the one, yes.
We're trying to move past that.
See, that word has so many negative connotations, you know, if you'd bothered to look it up.
What we've done is we're using the words "helper" and "helping".
You know, 'cause that's what these people did.
They helped build a nation.
- Dignity all around.
- Yeah.
This is a film that you can show in any classroom, and those kids are gonna walk out of there feeling good about themselves, feeling good about their ancestors, feeling great about me, and good about America.
Okay, let's look at a clip.
[orchestral music playing.]
[horse whinnying.]
[Mr.
Dilton.]
Whoa! Whoa! [whistles.]
Lemonade break! [Greeb.]
Here you go.
[Mr.
Dilton.]
Um, if I could take a moment out of your lemonade break, [stammering.]
I'd like to say, thank you on behalf of myself Damn you! Damn you to hell, Dilton! We out here, we're trying to help you and everything, but you slowing us down with all these lemonade breaks and snack times and thank yous.
Don't nobody need no thank you.
Well, you better get used to it, 'cause I'm gonna thank you every day.
You hear me? Dignity, all around! [all cheering and laughing.]
Now, there was a "The End" there.
Is that the end of the film? [chuckling.]
No, Charlene, that'd be ridiculous.
Why would I No, that's the end of the clip.
So, that was just the end of the clip.
Okay, would you say that this is a new take on an old story? Uh, it's an update, nothing more, you know.
That's all it is, really.
We're showing a side that's never been shown.
I'd like to ask you about the scene where the slaves are getting paid.
Helpers! Helpers.
Yes.
Let's watch.
[Mr.
Dilton.]
Tunde! [clears throat and coughs.]
Aren't you gonna sign for it? Oh yes, Mr.
Dilton.
Mr.
Dilton is my father.
My name's Jody.
Thank you, Jody.
[Jody.]
Not so fast.
Now, I heard somebody said something about somebody in the field.
A helper gettin' all high and mighty, and tellin' how they be doing twice the work of the other helper.
Maybe even more work than old Greeb here.
Yeah.
You don't know nothing about that, now do you? No, sir Jody.
I just do my job best I can, do school at night so I can become a lawyer, and then President of the United States one day, and keep my mouth shut.
Then you don't know nothing about nothing, they talked to nobody no how, is that it? Yes.
Well, good.
[chuckles.]
- Then I musta got the right helper.
- [chuckles.]
You got something special in your pay packet.
Open it up.
I can't read so good.
Can you read that to me? It say [reading.]
- You wanna collect on that now? - [chuckles.]
- [Tunde.]
I would, sir.
- Oh, I'm so glad you said yes.
Come on, Greeb, get in on this hug.
- All righty.
I'm in there.
- Come on, Greeb.
- I need a friend.
- [Jody.]
Nobody hugs like old Greeb.
[stammers.]
He just thought he was getting money.
Well, now that is an uplifting ending.
No, that's the end of the clip.
[stammers.]
I put "The End" over the end of the clips so you wouldn't get confused.
You know, I don't want people to watch this show and think this show is part of the movie.
That's why I put "The End" over the clips, so they would know.
Otherwise Now, your detractors are saying that you've whitewashed things.
Okay, well, that's racist.
As a white man, I find that insulting, and it feels like I'm being personally attacked.
And look, we don't shy away from the brutality of helperism.
- Slavery.
- That's your word, okay? We have a brutal whipping scene in here which is, uh, quite frankly, unforgiving, you know.
Show that, why don't you? Get off my ass for a fucking second.
- [grunting.]
- [groaning.]
- [chuckles.]
- [gun fires.]
[Jody.]
Hear, hear! What the hell are you doing? You're hurting him! What? It wasn't - What the hell you doin'? - It wasn't me, it's this whip here.
The whip? I followed the instructions to the letter.
Let me see 'em.
- It's right here.
- Show me the instruction.
- They made this thing too shaky.
- Shut up, now.
Greeb, what the heck you done? Which end did you hold? I helded this end.
- And then you hit him with - I hit him with the wraggly end.
I don't care about that.
You untie him.
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry, Mr.
Dilton.
I'm so sorry.
You all right there? I didn't mean to do nothing.
I can't remember how I tied this.
Get it off.
Okay, is that better? There we go.
Okay.
- Now, Greeb - Yes, sir.
You know what you gotta do.
Yes, I reckon I do, sir.
I need to return this here whip.
It almost really hurt this helper.
[sighs.]
[country music playing.]
Now that just said "The End" twice.
Yes, it's the end of the movie and the end of the clip.
Fascinating.
Tomorrow night, my guest will be America's premiere sci-fi director, Kyle Buggins, whose new film has become, in just a few short weeks, the highest-grossing film ever made.

The decision did not go in your favor.
Uh, your reaction? Well, the decision is one thing, uh For me, uh, I found that the amount of nonsense was of a greater degree than I had been led to believe it would be.
Thank you.
And the decision did go in your favor and your reaction? I think it was the exact right amount of nonsense.
