I will prove today, without a shadow of a doubt, that my client is an innocent man. So, ask yourself can you execute an innocent man? (prosecutor asks barnett her question then kattan says) "Objection your honor" (then when it's kattan's turn to ask the questions) "Care to tell us another diddy about the defendant excuse me your friend. it's a simple question tell another diddy go ahead. So you dont sincerely know do you? (John Goodman asks do se do) Did I just hear you say you dont sincerely know? Not do se do but Don't sincerely know. (Prosecutor asks john goodman if he saw defendant kill the person he says yes) I object your honor on the grounds this prosecutor is leading the witness! (Prosecutor complains being called prostitute) oh my god oh my god I did not call you a prostitute, ok now mr. barnett Is it true that you have a bit of a drinking problem? (Um um) you know? I've got a drinking problem (no no...yes?) Need I remind you that you are under oath. (then he draws the picture and says) is it true you got so jealous, so jealous you DRUGGED & FRAMED YOUR PARTNER! SO JEALOUS SO JEALOUS YOU DRUGGED YOUR PARTNER!?) as far as gaggiti bo is concerned i am thinking that is "gets to go free boy" or just gibberish for comedic effect as some of what he said in skit was but if he was really saying words during it then what i said above is probably close according to some people's southern speak lol great sketch either way!

      @@I_like_turtles_67 Not sure where you are getting your "facts" but that isnt 100% true. OK, um, aside from the fact that pretty much every cast member did and does drugs on a daily basis - Kattan did not at first. He was actually the clean ones.
      Sadly, during a skit LIVE on SNL, he had an accident and broke his neck. He was in immediate an excruciating pain but, a true professional, he continued throughout the skit - and the show.
      Afterwards he was taken to the hospital and endured several operations. Naturally he was given opioids from the pain. THAT is when he, as you so eloquently put it, became a "drug addicted asshole". Although he is an addict and no excuse and he needs to get clean - I have much more respect for someone who is addicted to drugs, as opposed to those who do them out of recreation. One doesnt choose to be an addict- but they do choose to use and abuse. Kattan needs to get his shit together and get clean.

      Just look it up. Google how the Oscar's actually work. Its really interesting to see how little they actually mean, and how they don't really reflect the general public's, or critics' opinion at all.

      It’s way easier to write the words and get him to improvise the slurring than it is to come up with so many brand new words for him to memorise! That’s a really millennial comment. Not the ignition through and completely wrong only serving to gthe ve the writer a ego boost for trying to sound smart as usual. It’s so much more in line with creativity to give him a script with actual dialogue and let him improv the slurring.

      There are a bunch of nonsense words which were improvised by Kattan.

    This sounds like my .Mississippi grandpa. I never understood a word he said, Mom told me to mimic what he did. If grandpa smiled, I was to smile, if he looked angry I needed to look sad. That deep Delta tongue was hard to understand.

      I moved from Oregon to the Mississippi Gulf Coast 20 years ago. Often, it's like trying to follow conversations in Spanish -- I kind of understand, but you should not trust me to get it right.
