Keanu Reeve’s Monologue
written by: Emily Cadic


.....Keanu Reeves
Alex Winter.....Seth Meyers


(Keanu Enters. Much Applause.)

Keanu Reeves: Wow, It’s great to be here on Saturday Night Live. The cast is soo talented; they have really made it a fun experience…(Keanu is interrupted here)

(A guitar riff is heard, smoke clusters, and a podium raises above the stage that has been under the stage. Seth Meyers is wearing a curly blonde wig and grungy clothes: ripped and patched jeans, a cut-off t-shirt with a picture of Mr. T, and converse shoes.)

Alex Winter: It’s time for Bill and Ted REPRISE!!!(plays same guitar riff, a drummer is seen playing behind him, on his drumset the “Wyld Stallynz” is printed)

Keanu Reeves: (confused, a bit annoyed) Hey! What are you doing?? Who the hell are you??

(smoke stops rising, guitar and drums stop playing)

Alex Winter: Keanu, it’s me, Alex Winter! You know, the Bill to your Ted!

Keanu Reeves: Oh, Alex. Hey, bro. Umm, I’m trying to host a show right now. Is there something you wanted?

Alex Winter: Uh, yeah…I was wondering if you could help me out…financially.

Keanu Reeves: (shocked) What?? C’mon, Bill and Ted’s was a hit! What’s the problem?

Alex Winter: I did not properly invest.

Keanu Reeves: What do you mean?

Alex Winter: I blew all of my money in less than a year. But only on the essentials, mind you. I bought about 20 flying V’s of assorted colors and I can’t even count my Fenders, a kick ass indoor pool fully adorned with exotic BABES, and a lifetime supply of midrift t-shirts!(points to shirt) See! (in horrible Mr. T voice) I pity da fool!

Keanu Reeves: STILL wearing those shirts?

Alex Winter: What else! So anyway…it doesn’t have to be a loan or anything, just if you could write me into the Matrix and I could do most excellent stunts like that flying stuff you were doin’!

Keanu Reeves: (doubtful) I don’t think there’s room for a shallow, lustful “DUDE” in a philosophical blockbuster like the Matrix.

Alex Winter: (taken aback) Hey aren’t you bragging a bit with this philological stuff? What would SOCRATES say?

Keanu Reeves: Alex, I’m trying to host a show, go sit in the audience or something!

Alex Winter: Why, so I can watch an overrated actor say “WHOAH” for 90 minutes?

Keanu Reeves: Hey man…go to Hell!

Alex Winter: Already been, my friend. You of all DUDES should know that! We played battleship with Death himself! (pauses and does not see a positive reaction from Keanu) Whatever dude, I see you will be of no help! (plays opening riff again, smoke appears, and podium is dropped down below the stage.)

Keanu Reeves: (waves smoke away with his arm) Glad I didn’t agree to do a third one! Alright guys, we’ve got an INCREDIBLE show. Watch out for an angry guy trapped in the eighties…we’ll be right back!
