"No, I'm not." "Do it." "Mm!" "Are you sure your wife is gonna be gone all day?" "Oh, yeah." "Yeah, she's disassembling the basketball court" "And putting in an ice rink."

"You know, I think they make some really good points." "Don't get me wrong." "I'm all for equal pay." "But there are some differences beyond just the plumbing." "Do I want you on the front lines?" "I don't think so." "The Russians will come in with their guns a-blazin'," "And you guys will be out powdering your boobs." "You know I get so hot when you talk politics." "So when you gonna break up with Gretchen?" "Soon." "Soon." "But you've made promises to me!" "I--I know." "Liz, it's complicated." "You have to be patient." "I know." "I" "I'll tell Gretchen this week." "Here's the next story." "Mm." "I'm getting excited." "Can you feel me?" "There you go." "Ahh!" "There you go." "There you go." "Oh, you did it."

"About the fact that you and Dad are white" "And we're black." "Ah, right." "Yeah, I had a feeling this day would come." "The year before you were born," "I was the entertainment reporter for the local newspaper." "And I had an opportunity to interview all the big stars:" "Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman," "Sidney Poitier, everybody." "And even though I was married to your father" "And very, very much in love with him," "From time to time, after the interviews," "These stars would..." "Fuck me." "Mom, cut to the chase." "Did you have sex with these guys or not?" "Well, as I said" "Who's our biological father?" "So one night after an interview," "I took the opportunity" "To fuck Arnold Schwarzenegger." "And?" "Do you need me to spell it out for you?" "Yes." "Yes." "I..." "F-u-c-k-e-d..." "A-r-n-o-l-d" "S-c-h" "Mom-- let her finish." "W-a-r-e-n..." "E-g-g..." "E-r." "So you're saying Arnold Schwarzenegger's" "Our biological father?" "Yes." "It's why you're both so tall." "I always told everyone" "It was because you got too much sun." "But how can you be sure it's" "I'm positive." "He was the only man I was with during that time." "And I took the blood test to prove it." "How does that explain the dark color of our skin?" "I know." "I know." "Believe me, I know." "Boys, since our conversation," "I've been thinking about it a lot." "And I've decided it's best" "For you to meet your real father." "Really?" "Yes." "So without further ado," "You knew "he'd be back,"" "And here is" "The man, the machine, your dad," "The incomparable Arnold Schwarzenegger." "hello, my sons." "I'm Arnold."

"Arnold, could you wait in the living room" "For just a second?" "Of course." "I'll be back." "Look, I tried to get in touch with Arnold," "But he's a major politician now," "And I couldn't even get past the receptionist." "That guy" "Does corporate events as Arnold," "So I thought at least it would give you an idea" "Of what it'd be like to have him around." "Okay, mom." "Thanks." "We'll try to make it work." "That's my beautiful boys." "I'm back." "Oh, hey..." "Dad." "Son." "Oh, here we go." "Get him!" "Get him!" "I'm gonna get you!" "Oh, good one." "Okay." "You split right." "Split left." "Fantastic!" "Okay, here we go." "Oh, dear." "I know this time for you two" "Must have been very difficult" "On so many levels." "One, your father passing away" "Not more than a week ago" "At the young age of 42," "Finally succumbing," "After a courageous battle with liver cancer." "Two, the revelation" "That your real biological father" "Is none other than international-movie-megastar" "Turned-California-Governor." "You know who he is, Arnold Schwarzenegger." "And three," "Having me, Marc Jacobson," "Second-rate stand-up comedian" "Doing 24-hour-day impression of Arnold" "In the effort to make you comfor-tay-ble--comfortable." "Com-for-table?" "And four, the ongoing confusion over the fact" "That you have two white biological parents" "And yet you yourselves" "Are quite obviously dark-skinned African-American boys." "Must be hard." "That really sums it up." "You know, you don't always have to do the Arnold voice" "If you don't want to." "Listen, to be honest with you," "Sometimes it's easier for me to express my true feelings" "While doing this impersonation." "There are things" "That Arnold Schwarzenegger can say" "That Marc Jacobson can't." "Or won't." "Come on, race you back to the house!" "I let you win on purpose." "You know I let you win." "Oh, look at my boys all sweaty." "Mom, was the real Arnold Schwarzenegger" "As nice as this one?" "Well, I haven't thought about that night in years." "But if I remember..." "Oh, my god." "You're gonna hate me for this." "I made a little boo-boo." "It wasn't Arnold Schwarzenegger." "It was Arsenio Hall." "well, that explains a lot." "So good to finally know the real truth." "What about the blood test you were talking about?" "They were for Arsenio Hall." "Oh." "So where does that leave me?" "Well, can you do Arsenio?" "No." "I can do Eddie Murphy." "A while back, I used to do" "A pretty good Eddie Murphy." "That's fine." "Same difference." "Yeah?" "Okay." "Oh, yeah." "I got some ice cream." "You cannot have none, 'cause you on welfare." "I'm Gumby, damn it." "Psych!" "Psych!" "Remember?" "Yeah." "I got the ice cream." "Yeah." "You may think our family's a little different," "But you know what?" "It's our family, and that's what counts." "Who's to say who your father is?" "Is it the person who raised you?" "Is it the person who gave you your DNA?" "Or maybe it's the guy who hangs out in your house" "Doing an imitation of a famous comedian" "Who is the same race as another famous comedian" "Who is your biological father."
