MacPhisto: [sings] "Even the greatest stars... discover themself in the looking glass..." [approaches iPad on a stand; sees a devilish face superimposed over his own image] "Even the greatest stars... discover themself in the looking glass..." Crowd: [cheer] MacPhisto: [inhales] "Buonasera, Milano." Crowd: [cheer] MacPhisto: "MacPhisto al vostro servizio." Crowd: [cheers and applause] MacPhisto: "Ohhh." [wipes away tears] "I'm so sad tonight. I do miss my old pal... Benito Mussolini." Crowd: [laughter and whistles] MacPhisto: [sniffles] "Ohhh, Benny. Benny and his jets." Crowd: [laughter] MacPhisto: "I used to say, 'Il Duce?'" Crowd: [laughter, whoops, boos and whistles] MacPhisto: "Oh, hold on! I used to say, 'Il Duce, what's the use of the trains running on time, if you're not deporting people?'" [wicked laugh] Crowd: [laughter, whoops and applause] MacPhisto: [laughing] "Mm-hm! But you know... old Benny-Benny-Benito, he did have some... excellent ideas. The Manifesto of Race – Manifesto della razza." [laughs] Crowd: [whistles] MacPhisto: "So practical. So practical. No ethnic shops after 9 o'clock." Crowd: [whoops and applause] MacPhisto: "I think that's where we got it all started. No people with very dark tans – unless they're... orange... if you know what I mean." [laughs] Crowd: [whistles and applause] MacPhisto: "Oh, and Milano? Just remember. It's when you don't believe that I exist – that's when I do... my best work." [Acrobat begins] MacPhisto: "Don't believe what you hear. Don't believe what you see. If you just close your eyes... you can feel the ENEMYYY!" |
