Weekend Update: Jane, You Ignorant Slut - SNL

  • 0:00 - 0:03
    - I'm station manager,
    Dan Aykroyd.
  • 0:03 - 0:05
    During the past few weeks
    in Los Angeles,
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    actor, Lee Marvin, and his
    former live-in companion,
  • 0:07 - 0:09
    Michele Triola Marvin,
    have been in court
  • 0:09 - 0:11
    to settle her claim
    that he owes her
  • 0:11 - 0:13
    half his income from the
    six years they lived together.
  • 0:13 - 0:15
    That is the subject of
    tonight's Point CounterPoint.
  • 0:15 - 0:17
    Jane will take the pro
    Michele Marvin point
  • 0:17 - 0:19
    while I take the--
    [audience groans and claps]
  • 0:19 - 0:21
    anti Michele Triola
    counterpoint.
  • 0:21 - 0:23
    [audience claps]
    Jane?
  • 0:23 - 0:25
    - Dan, times change and so does
  • 0:25 - 0:26
    the nature of relationships.
  • 0:26 - 0:29
    People are reluctant to
    get married these days,
  • 0:29 - 0:30
    and looking at
    divorce statistics,
  • 0:30 - 0:31
    who can blame them.
  • 0:31 - 0:33
    But the lack of a piece of paper
  • 0:33 - 0:34
    does not necessarily
    mean the lack
  • 0:34 - 0:36
    of a total commitment.
  • 0:36 - 0:37
    A woman in this
    modern-day relationship
  • 0:37 - 0:40
    may well give up all her
    own personal pursuits,
  • 0:40 - 0:42
    as Michele Marvin
    claims she did,
  • 0:42 - 0:44
    to give her full support
    to her man's career.
  • 0:44 - 0:46
    And Michele Marvin
    is just asking
  • 0:46 - 0:48
    that the courts recognize
    that reality.
  • 0:48 - 0:50
    Dan, there's an old saying,
  • 0:50 - 0:52
    behind every successful man
    there's a woman,
  • 0:52 - 0:54
    a loving, giving, caring woman.
  • 0:54 - 0:55
    But you wouldn't know
    about that, Dan,
  • 0:55 - 0:57
    because there's no old saying
  • 0:57 - 0:59
    about what's behind
    a miserable failure.
  • 0:59 - 1:03
    [cheers and applause]
  • 1:07 - 1:09
    - Jane, you ignorant slut.
  • 1:09 - 1:13
    [cheers and applause]
  • 1:13 - 1:15
    Bagged out, dried up slunk meat
  • 1:15 - 1:17
    like you and Michele Triola
    know the rules.
  • 1:17 - 1:19
    If you want a contract,
    sign on the dotted line.
  • 1:19 - 1:22
    Oh, but let's all shed a tear
    for poor Michele Triola.
  • 1:22 - 1:23
    There was only testimony
    that she had
  • 1:23 - 1:24
    sexual intercourse over 40 times
  • 1:25 - 1:26
    with another man while
    living with actor Lee Marvin.
  • 1:27 - 1:28
    But I suppose that sort
    of fashionable promiscuity
  • 1:28 - 1:29
    means nothing to
    someone like you, Jane,
  • 1:30 - 1:31
    who hops from bed to bed
  • 1:31 - 1:33
    with the frequency of
    a cheap, HAM radio.
  • 1:33 - 1:35
    [laughter]
  • 1:36 - 1:37
    But hell hath no fury
    like a woman scorned.
  • 1:37 - 1:39
    And Michele Triola,
    like a screeching,
  • 1:39 - 1:41
    squealing, rapacious swamp sow,
  • 1:41 - 1:42
    is after actor Lee Marvin's
  • 1:42 - 1:44
    last three million dollars.
  • 1:44 - 1:46
    I guess what you and Michele
    are saying is
  • 1:46 - 1:48
    that when you're on your backs,
    the meter is running.
  • 1:50 - 1:51
    Well, please spare us gals,
  • 1:51 - 1:53
    and tell us the rates
    at the top.
  • 1:53 - 1:54
    Then we can choose
    which two-bit tarts
  • 1:54 - 1:56
    and bargain basement
    sluts to shack up with.
  • 1:56 - 2:02
    - That's the news, good night
    and have a pleasant tomorrow.
