[Jon Stewart, Prairie Dawn and the crew are locked in the dressing room by accident]
Jon, you're on in 30 seconds.
David, we can't get out! The door's stuck!
What? Well, where's the handyman I sent in?
[seeing the handyman shake the oil can] In here with the rest of the crew.
Oh, no! If they can't get out, that means there's no show. And if there's no show, then all those people who wanted to hear the music will be sad. And if all those people are sad, they might not go to work tomorrow! And if they don't go to work tomorrow, the economy will collapse! And if the economy collapses, THE COUNTRY... WILL BE... DOOMED!!! Doomed, I tell you! This is terrible!
[calming Telly down] Easy! Easy! Easy! Easy, Telly. It's just a TV show.
[gasps in shock] Watch your mouth, little guy! Now, I'd expect that attitude over on cable, but this is network.
