-->'''Rowan:''' Are you looking forward to the show tonight?
-->'''Martin:''' Yea, what's the movie?
-->'''Rowan:''' What movie? You doo doo, it's Laugh-In.
-->'''Martin:''' Oh that's right, Laugh-In's on tonight! I almost forgot it was Tuesday!
-->'''Rowan:''' It's not Tuesday, it's Monday!
-->'''Martin:''' Glad you reminded me! ''(to audience)'' Don't forget to watch Laugh-In tomorrow night.
-->'''Rowan:''' Laugh-In's not on tomorrow night.
-->'''Martin:''' Finally canceled it, huh? I knew they couldn't keep it up every week.
-->'''Rowan:''' You knew ''who'' couldn't keep it up every week?
-->'''Martin:''' Funk and Wagnalls.
-->'''Rowan:''' Funk and Wagnalls aren't on Laugh-In.
-->'''Martin:''' See, I told you they couldn't keep it up!
-->'''Rowan:''' Now, now, you're getting me confused. Let's go back to the beginning.
-->'''Martin:''' Well, in the beginning, in the Garden of Eden, there was this boy and this girl, and...
-->'''Rowan:''' We might need not go back that far, let's just go back to the beginning of the show.
-->'''Martin:''' OK...
-->''(The Creator/{{NBC}} peacock appears: "The following program is brought to you in living color on NBC.")''
-->'''Martin:''' Hey, was that Funk and Wagnalls?
-->'''Rowan:''' That was the NBC peacock.
-->'''Martin:''' That's how ''our'' show starts.
-->'''Rowan:''' That's what I've been trying to tell you. This ''is'' our show.
-->'''Martin:''' Oh you mean it's Tuesday already.
-->'''Rowan:''' No, it's Monday. Laugh-In is on on Monday nights.
-->'''Martin:''' Well somebody better tell Funk and Wagnalls, they're gonna be late for the show!
