The Oscar discussion peaked with Gary Busey interrupting Ryan Seacrest and kissing Jennifer Garner's neck, which Mikey argued security should have stopped. In the Dumb Chick Challenge, Boston Rob beat Skye and Ashley, while Will Ferrell admitted he knew Bewitched was doomed on day one. Hillary Clinton's attack on Barack Obama's optimism was framed as desperation, Mike Huckabee mocked his mathematically impossible campaign on Saturday Night Live, and Lee Camp used a Fox News appearance to condemn the network. Katie Daryl asked whether one month was too soon to say she loved her boyfriend, while Ask Mikey advised a groom to compare nonnegotiables and warned Andrea that secretly dating her ex's best friend was shady. The show also mocked Nisreen Swedeberg and Sarah Williams's claim that Southwest removed them for being pretty, then debated American Airlines' responsibility for a passenger's death amid reported medical-equipment failures.

What happened, in order

  1. Busey crashes the red carpet

    Gary Busey interrupted Ryan Seacrest's interview and kissed Jennifer Garner on the neck, prompting the crew to argue that security should have intervened despite his celebrity.

  2. Dumb Chick Challenge

    Skye, Ashley, and Boston Rob stumbled through escalating trivia questions until Rob won by correctly calling a group of crows a murder.

  3. Ferrell answers for Bewitched

    When a student asked why he made Bewitched even though it was terrible, Will Ferrell joked that he knew the production was doomed on day one but had to fulfill his contract.

  4. Clinton attacks Obama's optimism

    The crew played Hillary Clinton mocking Barack Obama's hopeful message and argued that her attacks over optimism, NAFTA, and health care sounded increasingly desperate.

  5. When to say I love you

    Katie Daryl asked whether one month was too soon to tell her boyfriend she loved him, splitting Mikey, Skye, and Ashley between saying it openly and waiting for him to go first.

  6. Snowbound mob questionnaire

    The cast guessed whom each colleague would choose as a mob adviser, a keeper of criminal secrets, or a cabin companion, exposing alliances and bruising several egos.

  7. Marriage nonnegotiables

    Mikey advised a caller getting married Saturday to compare written lists about children, religion, sex, and other nonnegotiables before the ceremony.

  8. Dating the ex's best friend

    Mikey told Andrea that her new boyfriend's failure to tell his best friend—her ex—about their relationship was shady and violated the honesty expected between friends.

  9. Huckabee will not leave

    Mike Huckabee appeared on Saturday Night Live to joke that he would pursue a miracle despite the mathematical impossibility of winning, then deliberately overstayed his welcome.

  10. Comedian ambushes Fox News

    Lee Camp ended a Fox News appearance by calling the channel propaganda and a festival of ignorance while the hosts hurriedly tried to recover.

  11. Too pretty for Southwest

    Nisreen Swedeberg and Sarah Williams claimed a Southwest crew targeted them for being attractive, while the hosts sarcastically blamed their removal on disruptive behavior instead.

  12. Deadly airline equipment failure

    The hosts debated American Airlines' responsibility after a passenger reportedly died when two onboard oxygen tanks were empty and a defibrillator did not work.
