Sky introduced Fred Goldman's attempt to collect money from O.J. Simpson, and the hosts immediately mocked her for briefly confusing Fred with his son Ron Goldman. The main comedy bit was a pair of dueling O.J. impressions—one supposedly moderate and one intentionally extreme—that recycled the Bronco, glove, Kato, McDonald's, and Samsonite details from the murder case. Sky explained that Simpson was acquitted in criminal court but owed the Goldman family $20 million from the wrongful-death case, a figure the show said had grown to $30 million with interest. She then reported that Fred wanted Simpson's public-appearance income, while Simpson argued that California lacked jurisdiction because he lived in Florida.

What happened, in order

  1. Fred or Ron?

    The hosts roast Sky for initially confusing Fred Goldman with his murdered son, Ron, before launching into an O.J. Simpson impersonation.

  2. Two O.J.s

    The performers split the impression into a restrained 'sensitive O.J.' and a deliberately outrageous 'crazy O.J.' while arguing about how far the jokes should go.

  3. Samsonite Alibi

    The O.J. impression turns his old Samsonite endorsement, Kato's guesthouse stay, and the McDonald's alibi into a single escalating murder riff.

  4. Queen of Googling

    After Sky confirms that Fred is Ron Goldman's father, the hosts detour into teasing her about using Google to find DVD synopses.

  5. Mac Murder Meal

    The group invents a grotesque McDonald's 'Mac murder meal' bundled with a tiny glove, parodying the famous trial defense that the glove did not fit.

  6. The Debt Explained

    Sky finally explains that O.J. Simpson was acquitted criminally but ordered to pay the Goldman family $20 million in the wrongful-death civil case.

  7. Florida Dismissal Argument

    Sky reports that Fred Goldman sought O.J. Simpson's public-appearance income and that Simpson argued the California suit should be dismissed because he lived in Florida.

  8. Bronco Escape Punchline

    The hosts cap the routine by listing the Bronco chase, cash, gun, passport, wig, and suicide note as signs that mock Simpson's claim of innocence.
