Ronald McDonald ... Jeff Richards
Mary ... Maya Rudolph
Bartender ... Sen. John McCain
[The scene is set in a bar. A lone woman sits at the bar, facing us. She is drinking a glass of wine and talking to the bartender. She looks bored.]
Bartender: Hey, Mary, can I get you a refill on that?
Mary: Oh, no thanks, Carl. I'm meeting a date here tonight. Just waiting for him to show up.
Bartender: Okay, just give me a holler if you need anything.
[The woman hears a strange voice next to her. It says "Hi there." She
turns around and sees Ronald McDonald sitting next to her. He holds a
bottle of Corona. His trademark yellow jumper has the top two buttons open and he has a golden "M" medallion hanging out.]
Ronald McDonald: [suave] Hi there, good looking. What's a lady like you doing here?
Mary: [smiling] Oh, wow. A clown. I love clowns.
Ronald McDonald: Aw, c'mon, baby. I'm not a clown. I'm just a guy sitting here, looking for someone to talk to.
Mary: I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. I just don't see men in full makeup and a red wig much around here. Not to mention the striped socks and yellow jumpsuit.
Ronald McDonald: That's not a jumpsuit, baby. That's my LOVE suit. Women love it.
Mary: [humoring him] Ah, I see.
Ronald McDonald: It looks even better crumpled up on your floor in the
morning, if you know what I mean.
Mary: [starting to turning away] Uh, oooookay.
Ronald McDonald: I'm Ron, by the way. [He holds out his hand] Nice to meet you.
Mary: [still wary of him] Hi, Ron. [She shakes his hand with hesitation] Mary.
Ronald McDonald: You looking to meet someone tonight?
Mary: Well, I'm actually waiting for a date to show up. I already have plans.
Ronald McDonald: Hey, I got an idea. Why don't you just blow off that
chump and come party with a real man? I got my car outside, we can go hit the town. I can go all... night... long. [He grins] Yeah, you know what the Ronald is talking about.
Mary: Uh, no thank you.
Ronald McDonald: Hey, I thought you said you love clowns. What's with the cold shoulder, kitten? [He starts to sidle up to her]
Mary: I like clowns in the circus. Not clowns trying to get with me.
That's just creepy. [She shudders] Ewwwww.
Ronald McDonald: C'mon, aren't you curious to see if we wear white body paint... all... over? [He cocks an eyebrow at her, suggestively.] Yeah, I think you know the answer. And this red hair aint an illusion baby. The carpet matches the curtains, if you dig what I'm saying.
Mary: [wincing] Okay, that's just gross. Please go away. Just go. Go hop in your clown car and drive away.
Ronald McDonald: I'm a little hurt that you're being so shallow. I'm more than just a clown. I'm actually a restaurateur, baby. Can't you see past the red wig, and see the real man here? I think you'll like what you see.
Mary: [perking up] You own a restaurant?
Ronald McDonald: I own thousands, baby. [He reaches to casually drape an arm across her shoulders]. Thousands of 'em, with my name on the front. You've probably eaten in my place without even realizing it.
Mary: What is it called? "Ron's Cafe?"
Ronald McDonald: Well that's not important, muffin. Let's just say, I've been feeding you for years. Just like now. [He smoothly reaches for a maraschino cherry from behind the bar and places it in her mouth. A very slick move. She smiles and eats it.]
Mary: You're good.
Ronald McDonald: You know it, baby. I could be so good to you. They don't call me McMacDaddy for nothing.
Mary: [not charmed anymore] McMacDaddy? What are you, twelve?
Ronald McDonald: Aw, why you gotta be a hater? No one likes a hater, baby.
Mary: Sorry, Ron. I'm just not interested in being picked up tonight.
You're a nice guy, but, c'mon, you're a clown. It's not gonna happen.
Ronald McDonald: But I got connections, baby. You want to know me, I'm like a sugar daddy. Like a McFlurry with crushed oreo topping, you want to keep me around ... at... all... times.
Mary: Sorry, no.
Ronald McDonald: [getting desperate] Hey, c'mon, give me a chance. If you ever have a party, I bet you I could hook you up with a giant ten-gallon jug full of orange flavored soda. Does that turn you on? Orange soda?
Mary: Not especially.
Ronald McDonald: What about having barbecue sauce licked off your body? I love to do that.
Mary: Sounds fun, but not with you.
Ronald McDonald: What about ranch dressing?
Mary: No.
Ronald McDonald: Honey mustard?
Mary: Absolutely not.
Ronald McDonald: Sweet and sour?
Mary: [angry] No!
Bartender: [butting in] Listen, McDonald. The lady wants you to leave her alone. And STOP trying to pimp out your dipping sauces. That never works and you know it.
Mary: Thanks, Carl. [To Ronald] Look, Ron. You seem like a really great guy. I wish you well with your restaurant, but I'm just not interested. I don't go for clowns.
Ronald McDonald: Hey, no big deal. You're not my type, anyway.
Mary: Okay, have a nice night, Ron.
Ronald McDonald: You sure you don't want to come over anyway? I've got something I'd like you to supersize for me. [He grins.]
Mary: [looking at the bartender] Carl? Help please?
Bartender: Okay, that's IT. [He walks out from around the bar and grabs Ronald by the arm.] Get out of my bar. Go back to McDonaldland, you pervert.
Ronald McDonald: [yelling as he is being dragged out] If you want to hook up, just look for the McChooChoo! I live there, it's across the street! [The bartender struggles to pull him across the room.] Look for the big yellow "M", that means "Manly." [Mary just ignores him as he shouts.] I got a lava lamp and everything inside. Come on over, my shoes are size twenty-eight for a reason! [He gets thrown out the door]
Bartender: Don't come back. I'm SICK of throwing you out of here. Beat it!
[He slams the door to the bar.]
[Ronald picks himself up, dusts off his clothes, and re-adjusts his "M"
medallion. He shakes his fist, dramatically, at the closed door. He is very angry.]
