Ladies and Gentlemen... welcome to another special presentation in preparation for the DIScademy Awards!
[applause]
Please welcome Jack Nicholson!
[Thunderous applause]
JACK: Welcome back to the awards. I've been asked by the parking attendants read the following announcement... somebody using a DELL Poweredge 4300... you left your screensaver on.

[RABBIT enters]
[applause]
RABBIT: WAIT! WAIT! I cannot allow this ceremony to continue!!!

RABBIT: OUTrageous! {storms off}
JACK: The Mickey for Outstanding Post goes to...
