OCTOBER 21, 1991

-----

In New York, Christian was gonna be hosting SNL. It was currently Monday, He was getting ready to go to the SNL office for his first day there to start pitching some jokes and story ideas.

In Los Angles, Winona was up bright and early since she started filming Bram Stoker's Dracula a week ago. She was gonna be shooting a scene with Keanu Reeves, but before shooting it they were still getting their makeup done together.

Winona and Keanu were great friends when they met at an awards ceremony a couple years back.

"So where's Christian?" Keanu changes the subject.

"He's in New York right now, He's hosting SNL this weekend" Winona beams.

"Really? Oh wow!" He exclaims. "That's awesome!"

"I know! Francis gave me next week off for my birthday, So I'm flying to New York Saturday I can't wait to see him!"

Back in New York, Christian walked into Lorne Michaels' office.

"Christian!" Lorne exclaims, standing up from his desk walking over to him and shaking his hand.

"Hi Lorne nice to meet you" Christian smiles back, shaking his hand.

"On behalf of everyone here at SNL, We are excited to be working with you"

"Thank you very much"

After they introduce each other, all of the writers came in the office and they started the writing session for the episode. Roughly half an hour into pitching ideas, A writer suggests another skit.

"What about a Jack Nicholson themed skit?"

"Of course! I'd love that!" Christian replied excitedly. (so imagine just like the usual when theyre in different places, they call every single night and christian tells her about what he did for that day via telephone until saturday when Winona flies to new york)

"Christian, you're on in twenty minutes, get your last preparations done" The stage manager walked into the guest dressing room.

"Copy that" Christian nodded, He peeked outside the dressing room and spotted Winona waiting with a couple people. She had just arrived at the studio from landing in New York an hour ago. 

Christian rushes outside a surprises her with a big hug.

"God, I missed you" He smiles into her hair.

"I missed you too" She hugs him back leaning into him.

They pull away from the hug and share a sweet kiss. They both go into the dressing room for Christian to continue preparing.

Twenty minutes later, Christian was backstage ready to walk out into the audience and do his opening monologue. Winona stood by the audience as the person announced him.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, Christian Slater!" 

He walks out and waves to everybody and Winona cheering and clapping "Thank you!" He said a couple of times "Thank you very much, Wow! Let me say that again, Wow! Saturday Night Live! First of all I want to thank everyone for tuning in even though the World Series is still on I understand it's been a real exciting series. But we've got a real exciting show. But before we get started though, I'd like to get something off my chest. This is something that's been bothering me for some time and I wanted to take this opportunity here to uh deal with it once and for all alright? I'm a little tired of people accusing me of doing Jack Nicholson, okay?"

Winona and everybody in the audience chuckles at his phrase as he continues.

"Of course it hasn't happened around here, The people of the show have been extremely supportive very helpful. It's maybe I don't know maybe it's characters I've played, I don't know movies like Heathers.." 

Everyone starts clapping again and Christian continues "Pump up the volume, One Flew over the Cuckoo's Ne- No- that- That actually was Jack, yeah" Christian chuckles. "But anyway, What I do is nothing like Jack Nicholson, alright? And just to prove it, I'm gonna do the famous diner scene from Five Easy Pieces. The way I do it, alright?" Christians continues with his monologue including where he walked backstage into the room with all the computers and everybody was watching the game as a part of the bit.

"We actually do have a great show tonight. Bonnie Raitt is here!" He announces, coming back to the main stage. The audience cheers loudly again "Whoo! We'll be right back!" 

The commercial break starts and everybody rushes to the dressing room to prepare for the live skit that they were gonna do once they come back from the break.

Almost an hour of full chaos and funny skits, 2 musical performances by Bonnie Raitt later, it was finally the final skit.

"It happens so often, You're impersonating Jack Nicholson and you have to keep pulling your hair back. Undermining the dead on routine you so carefully homed. Well, now you can imitate Jack unhindered. with Nich-Aid. Nich-Aid's scientifically designed system of high speed blows keeps your hair pulled back like Jack's. Keeping your hands free the way Jacks are. Nich-Aid's portable and light weight. And no one will notice. I know I never would've made it through Heathers without it" A photo of Christian and Winona posing a JD and Veronica are shown on the screen with a photo of a pair of Nich-Aids photoshopped on Christian's head causing everybody to burst into laughs.

The skit finishes and that was the last skit of the whole show. Christian does the ending goodbyes right as they came back from the commercial break.

"I'd like to thank everybody tuning in! I had the greatest experience! Thanks to Bonnie Raitt! Lorne Michaels and everybody at SNL! I had the greatest week of my life, this was an unbelievable experience!" Christian waves goodbye, every one in the cast hugging each other and he thanks them as the ending credits roll out and the ending music plays. 

The show ends, Christian runs off the stage and Winona hugs him.

"You killed it! I'm so proud of you!" Winona squeals cupping his face, kissing him repeatedly.
