You Can't Do That on Television1979
El Capitano:
Ready! Aim!
Kevin Kubusheskie:
Hold it! Hold it! Stop the execution!
El Capitano:
Sacramento! What is it now?
Kevin Kubusheskie:
You wouldn't shoot me if I was a girl, would you?
El Capitano:
No, no, I would not shoot you if you were a girl. There's one little catch, though: you're not a girl.
Kevin Kubusheskie:
Well, you said you wouldn't shoot a girl, and under the equal rights law you should be as willing to shoot a girl as you would to shoot a boy.
El Capitano:
Oh, come on! You're just trying to stop this execution!
Lisa Ruddy:
[entering] No, he's right. You male chauvinists have denied us girls our rights for long enough. I demand that you shoot a girl.
El Capitano:
You WHAT?
Kevin Kubusheskie:
That's right. She wants you to shoot her instead of me.
Lisa Ruddy:
I insist on MY RIGHTS.
Kevin Kubusheskie:
Okay, then you can be shot instead of me.
[Lisa takes Kevin's place at the firing post]
El Capitano:
[to Kevin] Oh, ho, ho-ho... "Sneaky" is not the word for YOU.
