STShowcase.

Your host: Hal Holbrook.


HH: Good Sunday evening everyone and welcome to STShowcase, our Sunday series here at Silly Thinking, I'm your host Hal Holbrook.

Today on "STShowcase" we will wisk you back in time to February, 2004 for a look at "The Marlon Brando SHow" featuring Tony Bennett and a NASA expert explaining the United States mission to Mars.

This program shows the Oscar winning host at his most inquisitve, peppering the master of music and the master of science with eye opening questions that will inform and entertain as only Marlon Brando could.

So now buckle your seat belt, and gather your family around our magic carpet time machine, as we climb aboard our portal to the past, and travel back in time as only Silly Thinking can do.

MB: Good evening! No. You’re too kind. Thank you. Thank you. Please. Thank you. Stop. Now.
Hi again. Hello, Leonard.


LP: Hello, Mister Brando. Sir!



MB: That was cute in the intro. Jor-El.


LP: Yes! You are the father of Superman. Sir! Yes!



MB: Great. Superman broke his back and I host this crummy talk show. Whatever happened to the power of Krypton?
Tony Bennett.


TB: Ohh. Wow. Thank you. Caught me off guard. I didn’t know I was coming out so soon. But great and good evening Mister Brando! It’s an honor to meet you. You're great!




TB: Isn’t he really great?





MB:...


TB: Yeah! Great! You’re the best there is! I’ve been in this business a long time and you’re great!




TB: And I know what I’m talkin’ about!


MB: Are you fucking through or what?


TB: Yeah. I guess so.


MB: Are you familiar with the Napoleonic code?


TB: The what?


MB: The Napoleonic code. You know. The Napoleonic code.


TB: I don’t know what the hell you're talking about, but you’re great!


MB: Sing.




TB: You don’t mess around do you?


MB: Sing.


TB: “I left my heart…. in San Francisco…”




MB: Science guy.




DSF: Thank you.


MB: Hey Tony? Ever been to Mars?


TB: No. I never had a gig on Mars, but I’ll bet it’s great. You are too much man.


MB: Hey doc? You know the Napoleonic code?


DSF: Why yes. I believe it’s the ancient French law that the husband owns half of everything the wife brings to a marriage. Money, farm animals, jewelry. Half of all of it goes to the man, the husband.


MB: Are their little green men on Mars?


DSF: Ha ha. No. But you’d be surprised how many times I get asked that question.


MB: I would?


DSF: Well I…


TB: Too much. You are too much, man.


MB: What about that face on Mars thing? What the hell is that all about?


DSF: Ha, ha. No. That's just erosion on the surface of the planet that has configured itself to look like a face.


MB: Why’d it do that?


DSF: Well it’s soil and rock. It wasn't intentional. It just happens to look that way to us.


MB: But, you just said it configured itself to do that didn’t you?


DSF: Well yes but…


MB: Did you or not?


DSF Yes I did, but I didn’t mean to say that the soil had a thought process.


MB: But, you said it did that.


DSF:…


MB: Hey Tony? Did you hear that or not?


TB: Hey! Keep me out of this. I dunno.


MB: Did you hear it or not?


TB: Hey man, I’m just sitting here.


MB: You lousy bum! Did you hear the man say that. Yes or no?


TB: OK! OK! Yes. He said it. Sorry Doc.


MB: Don’t apologize to him. You don’t have anything to apologize for.


TB: Too much. You’re crazy, Marlon. Too much!


MB: Yeah, well we’ll see about that. We’ll just see sometime.


TB:…


DSF:…


MB: What the hell are you two looking at? All right, we're through here. Now get out.
Get out of here!
