Dean Martin's crew stand behind the cameras, trying not to laugh as Dean introduces a guest.
DEAN And here we have--
Dean leans forward and bursts out laughing.

He points behind the camera towards the director, Greg Garrison.
Greg suddenly freezes. Everyone looks towards Greg. The director has his hands out in front of him and is slouched slightly forward with a hazed look in his eyes. He's imitating Dean Martin's drunk act.
DEAN I can't, I can't, stop making me laugh!
Dean bellows again. At this point everyone on stage and on crew is dying.
GREG When we're done filming for the night, I have a favor to ask you.
DEAN Hmm? Whaddya want?
GREG I'll tell you after we get this done.
EXT. STUDIO - NIGHT
Rain pours down on the empty street as Dean Martin walks out the door of the studio. He notices Greg a few steps away under the canopy and walks towards him.
DEAN What did you want to discuss with me?
GREG Do you think we could talk about it at your place?
DEAN Sure, sure.
Greg follows Dean to his car.
INT. DEAN'S HOUSE - LATER
Dean and Greg sit down in the living room.
DEAN So, tell me now?
GREG Yeah, ok... I... my wife has been telling me these things.
DEAN Yeah?
GREG Well, she's been trying these new makeup brands, and suggested a treatment for the actors I know.
DEAN What?
GREG She says that all the new brands have a certain ingredient. And it just so happens that you have one of the ingredients growing in your backyard.
Dean stares at Greg, confused.
DEAN You want to search my backyard?
GREG Yeah, would you help me out?

Dean bites one of his fingers nervously and slowly lifts up his arms in protest.
DEAN But it's raining out there!
Greg grabs Dean by the arm and drags out into the backyard.
After a few minutes of searching around the trees, Greg runs back to the house.
GREG I'll be right back! Keep looking!
Dean stares after Greg, still confused.
Greg comes back out with a chair, gloves, a cup, lots of plastic, and a camera strung around his neck.
Greg places the chair down among the trees.
GREG You can take a break, I'll look for the ingredient.
DEAN Ok...
Just as Dean sits down, Greg ties the plastic around Dean's head and places some on his lap.
GREG Put these gloves on, it's cold out.
Dean puts on the gloves.
GREG Would you hold this for me please?
Dean takes the cup and looks into it suspiciously.
DEAN Why are you being so nice to me? Wait, why are we outside again?
GREG To find this ingredient.
Dean tries not to laugh.
DEAN Then why am I in a chair looking like this?
Greg steps back a bit and pulls out the camera. He takes a few pictures as Dean chuckles.
DEAN You did this just to get a crazy picture of me!
Greg bursts out laughing and runs back to the house.
Dean stands up and tears right after him.
DEAN GREG! You'll pay for this!
