Dorothy: Mr. Hope, could we impose upon you to entertain for a few minutes?
Bob Hope: Will I entertain? I didn't put this makeup on to go bowling.
Dorothy: Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Bob Hope! [applause]
Bob Hope: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Did you hear Did you hear that Ronald Reagan has just moved back to Hollywood? That's just what Hollywood needs, another unemployed actor. [laughter] Do you know Reagan left office with the highest popularity rating since FDR? He was more popular than Tammy Bakker at a Maybelline convention. [laughter]
Dorothy: I can't believe it. How on earth did he get here?
Sophia: You know how Alfonso kept talking about his old vaudeville partner? It turns out it was Bob Hope. Isn't that a kick?
Bob Hope: You know, since Ron and Nancy moved back to California, we've had earthquakes almost every day. Do you think God could be a Democrat? [applause] But earthquakes don't bother the president. If Sam Donaldson couldn't shake him up, nothin' will. [laughter]
