Saturday Night Live hasn't been funny for years ... pretty much all the juice has been squeezed out of the Trump lemon. In order to turn things around, I offer the following skit to rejuvenate this once-vibrant weekend entertainment.
Let's start withe the scene: A family dinner of the Farkels ... an attractive vibrant mother, somewhat nerdy father and am attractive teenage daughter. They are discussing the day's events:
Mother: We got our DNA tests back today ... I am 73% Swedish, 24% German and 3% Turkish. That figures ... my mother was a full Swede and my father had German ancestors.
Father: I got mine and I am 87% English' 10% Irish and 3% Italian.
Daughter: Wow! I want to have my DNA tested ...
Mother (visibly chagrined): Oh honey, that isn't necessary. Your results will just be ta mix otf your Dad's and mine. Besides it costs $90 ... this is money we don't need to spend.
Father: Oh, dear ... what's the harm?
Mother (flushing):Sweetie, these DNA tests are notoriously unreliable. You can't depend on their results.
Father: Oh, honey ... let our daughter do this test. What's the harm?
Mother (angering):'No, I refuse to allow it. It's a waste of good money on an unreliable test.
Daughter: I'll use my own money. I just want to see how much of my DNA comes from you Dad and from you Mom.
Mother (red faced): I refuse to allow it and that's final!
Father (milquetoasty): Aw, honey .
Mother (storming from the table): That's final!!
Father (clueless, to daughter): Gee, I wonder what's gotten into your Mother?
