Amazing Tales of Truth - SNL. | Transcript:

-Every day, somewhere in the world, something unbelievable happens to someone. Something that challenges the very core of what we believe. Every day, somewhere in the world, someone experiences the impossible. This is. -Doctor, please. There must be some way to wake my father from this coma. -I'm sorry, ma'am. There's. There's nothing we can do. -What if I sang? -What do you mean? -Well, my father's always loved my singing.

Maybe it will wake him. -Ma'am, I'm sorry, but there's no medical reason why that would work. -Well, I have to try. Papa, if you can hear me, this is for you. [Piano music plays] ♪ Somewhere over the rainbow ♪ ♪ Way up high ♪ ♪ There's a land that I've heard of ♪ ♪ Once in a lullaby ♪ ♪ Somewhere over the rainbow ♪ ♪ Skies are blue ♪ ♪ And the dreams that you dare to dream ♪ ♪ Really do come true ♪ Did it work? -It did not. It's not how comas work. This guy got hit by a bus. What the hell's singing a song gonna do? You see, every day, somewhere in the world, something unbelievable happens to someone. But this.

This was not one of those things. That day, a guy in Croatia floated off the ground for a bit, but no one was around to film it. God, I wish we had that footage, but we don't. But maybe we will, next time on. -Sorry about Rocky, buddy. He was a good boy. -He had a happy, long life for a dog, but it was his time to go. -I know, I just. I wish I had him back.

He was my best friend. -Well, he's just buried in the backyard, if you ever need to go talk to him. -It's not the same. -I know, honey, but. it's sad, and. [laughing] Rocky's gone. -Rocky! Hey, Rocky, you came back! -My God, it looks just like him. -How can that be? That's. Rocky is dead. -Rocky! -It can't be. -But look, it's his collar. -My God, it is. But how? Could this really be Rocky? -It was not. That's right. We're still in this sketch.

Can you believe it? This was a different dog. Sometimes dogs just look the same. This dog had their dog's collar 'cause it actually just dug up their dog's grave. I know. Ate some of the body, too. It was terrible. Terrible couple of days for this family. You see, every day, somewhere in the world, something unbelievable happens to someone. And for these people, that unbelievable thing was that a dog that looks like their dead dog dug up and ate their dead dog. Unbelievable things aren't always cool and good. No, sometimes they're bad and nasty. But maybe it won't be, next time on.
