DICK SMOTHERS: "Tommy has a special guest and he'd like to introduce him right now."
TOMMY SMOTHERS: "That's right. I have a Beatle!"
(sudden surprised screams from the girls in the audience)
DICK: "Yea, but it's not the kind of 'beetle' you would expect it to be."
(audience moans with disappointment)
TOMMY: "It's the kind of Beatle that I think you hoped it would be! Ladies and gentlemen, Mister George Harrison!"
(girls scream as George runs out, audience roars, excited ovation continues until George quiets them)
TOMMY: "Several weeks ago we had on... Your people did Hey Jude."
GEORGE: (sings) "Heey Juuude!"
TOMMY: "And Revolution."
(audience applauds and cheers)
DICK: "Beautiful. We thought... Tommy and I both thought that Hey Jude was the best presentation we've ever seen of The Beatles. And we're glad it was on our show."
GEORGE: "Yea. So are we!"
(applause)
GEORGE: (jokingly to Tom) "Have you met my brother Dick?"
TOMMY: (giggles)
GEORGE: (introducing them to each other) "Let me introduce you... this is Tommy, and this is my brother Dick."
(laughter as they shake hands)
TOMMY: (to Dick) "I've enjoyed your work."
DICK: (to Tom) "You look different in person."
GEORGE: "It's all the makeup. Too much makeup."
TOMMY: (to George) "You have something important?"
GEORGE: "Something very important to say on American television."
TOMMY: "You know, a lot of times we don't have opportunity to say anything important... BECAUSE it's American television."
(laughter)
TOMMY: "Everytime you try to say something important they uhh..." (makes gesture of pushing a censor button)
DICK: (makes gesture of cutting across throat)
(laughter)
GEORGE: "Well, whether you can say it or not, keep TRYING to say it!"
TOMMY: "That's what's important?"
GEORGE: "You got that? Yea. It's very important."
(someone off-screen hurries them to finish)
GEORGE: (to the person off-screen) "Cue, cue, cue... Aye, just a minute! Just a minute!"
TOMMY: (to the stage crew) "Wait a second..."
GEORGE: "OK... Cue the clap NOW!!"
(audience applauds on cue)
GEORGE: (bangs hands together fast) "Yay!!"
TOMMY: "Ladies and gentlemen, Mister George Harrison."
