Mikey, Eddie, Sky, Boston Rob and Ashley spent much of the show dissecting the Oscars, especially Mickey Rourke's loss, Sean Penn's gay-marriage argument and the night's best comedy films. They also covered the disputed Octodad claim, Conan O'Brien's emotional Late Night farewell and Nancy O'Dell's red-carpet encounters before her planned Dancing with the Stars appearance. The most personal bits involved Eddie feeling his baby kick, his cousin Jay being burned by a fire pit, and Sky's painfully awkward attempt to introduce herself to someone new. The crew also debated whether Harvey Levin was distancing TMZ from an alleged LAPD leak of Rihanna's injury photo and mixed harder news with jokes about a bullet-stopping hair weave and Kim Jong-il's mythical golf score.

What happened, in order

  1. Rourke's Oscar heartbreak

    The hosts recapped the Academy Awards, celebrated Heath Ledger and Slumdog Millionaire, and argued that Mickey Rourke deserved Best Actor over Sean Penn.

  2. Penn takes on Proposition 8

    Sean Penn used his Milk acceptance speech to condemn opponents of gay marriage, prompting the hosts to debate his politics while relentlessly mocking his solemn delivery.

  3. The Oscars get funny

    The crew praised the Pineapple Express Oscar film with Seth Rogen and James Franco and Ben Stiller's deadpan Joaquin Phoenix impersonation alongside Natalie Portman.

  4. The would-be Octodad

    A former boyfriend claimed he might have fathered all of Octomom's children and demanded a paternity test even as her publicist insisted he was not the donor.

  5. Bulletproof hair weave

    A Kansas City woman survived her ex-boyfriend's gunfire after a bullet lodged in the dense weft of her hair weave, inspiring jokes about issuing weaves to SWAT teams.

  6. Weekend elopement fallout

    Nineteen-year-old Chloe said her parents surprisingly accepted her secret marriage to Derek, while Jenna described unsuccessfully warning a recently divorced friend against another rushed Vegas wedding.

  7. Conan says goodbye

    Conan O'Brien grew emotional ending his 16-year Late Night run, promised not to grow up for The Tonight Show, welcomed Andy Richter back, and honored David Letterman's influence.

  8. Nancy O'Dell backstage

    Nancy O'Dell described the Slumdog Millionaire children as the night's sweetest stars, explained why Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie skipped much of the press line, and admitted she was terrified about joining Dancing with

  9. A kick and a fireball

    Eddie felt his unborn baby kick for the first time, then told how his cousin Jay suffered first-degree burns when a gas fire pit engulfed him in flames before a birthday party.

  10. Sky's stranger nightmare

    The crew sent an anxious Sky upstairs to introduce herself to a stranger, only for her to approach an intern and then a saleswoman she had already met.

  11. Who leaked Rihanna's photo?

    The hosts parsed Harvey Levin's claim that TMZ obtained Rihanna's battered-face photo legally and argued that his doubts about its LAPD origin sounded like protection against a leak investigation.

  12. Dictator golf and fight talk

    The crew mocked Kim Jong-il's supposed claim of 18 holes-in-one before reviewing Diego Sanchez's gaunt appearance and decision victory over Joe Stevenson.
