Quotes
-
Sam the Eagle : Oh, ahem. I often get a tear in my eye when I introduce this next act. Oh.
[He wipes away a tear]
Sam the Eagle : Oh! There's one right there, you see? You see, because they represent to me the very best this show has to offer - indeed, the very best this country has to offer. So, here they are now, just as sweet offstage as they are on - Wayne and Wanda! Oh, I need a hanky.
[the curtains open on Wayne and Wanda, with a bottle of champagne chilling on a table next to them. Wayne offers Wanda a glass as she begins to sing. As Wanda sings, she constantly blocks Wayne from the audience's view, frustrating him]
Wanda : I get no kick from champagne/ Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all/ So tell me why should it be true/ That I get a kick - OW!
[Wayne kicks Wanda off the stage and exits as the curtains close. Sam enters, wiping his eyes with his hanky]
Sam the Eagle : Uh, you see wh-oh...
[His voice trails off and he flees the stage in humiliation]
