Tom Hanks/Keith Richards [14.1]
edit- Sam Donaldson (Kevin Nealon): Vice-President Bush, there are millions of homeless in this country - children who go hungry, and lacking in other basic necessities. How would the Bush administration achieve your stated goal of making this a kinder, gentler nation?
- George Bush (Dana Carvey): Well, that is a big problem, Sam, and unfortunately the format of these debates makes it hard to give you a complete answer. If I had more time, I could spell out the program in greater detail, but I'm afraid, in a short answer like this, all I can say is we're on track - we can do more - but we're getting the job done, so let's stay on course, a thousand points of light. Well, unfortunately, I guess my time is up.
- Diane Sawyer (Jan Hooks): Mr. Vice-President, you still have a minute-twenty.
- George Bush: What? That can't be right. I must have spoken for at least two minutes.
- Diane Sawyer: No, just forty seconds, Mr. Vice-President.
- George Bush: Really? Well, if I didn't use the time then, I must have just used the time now, talking about it.
- Diane Sawyer: No, no, Mr. Vice-President, it's not being counted against you.
- George Bush: Well, I just don't want it to count against Governor Dukakis' time.
- Diane Sawyer: It won't. It will come out of the post-debate commentary.
- George Bush: Do you think that's a good idea?
- Diane Sawyer: You still have a minute-twenty, Mr. Vice-President.
- George Bush: Well, more has to be done, sure. But the programs we have in place are doing the job, so let's keep on track and stay the course.
- Diane Sawyer: You have fifty seconds left, Mr. Vice-President.
- George Bush: Let me sum up. On track, stay the course. Thousand points of light.
- Diane Sawyer: Governor Dukakis, rebuttal?
- Michael Dukakis (Jon Lovitz): I can't believe I'm losing to this guy.
Steve Martin/Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers [14.20]
edit- Steve Martin: You know, I've been coming here to do Saturday Night Live since 1976, and the thing that keeps bringing you back is the people you get to work with...and I would like to show you something we recorded on this stage in 1978. [Steve then shows the season 3 sketch "Dancing in the Dark", in which he dances with original cast member Gilda Radner, who had passed away the day the episode premiered] You know, when I look at that tape, I can't help but think how great she was, and how young I looked. Gilda, we miss you.
