- ESSENTIALLY THE UGLY
STEPCHILDREN OF THE ELLEN SHOW.
- WELL, WE'LL--
- NOT THAT STEPCHILDREN ARE--
OH, THERE THEY ARE.
- THEY'RE ON LITTLE PEDESTALS,
AND--NO, I'LL TAKE YOU
BACK THERE LATER TO SEE 'EM.
- WHY DON'T YOU JUST PUT UP
A SUPER
THAT SAYS "RIFFRAFF" OVER THAT?
- WE WANT TO OFFICIALLY DEDICATE
THIS ROOM
AS THE TOM HANKS RIFFRAFF ROOM.
- IT'S AMERICAN TO BE RIFFRAFF.
- IT'S AMERICAN TO BE RIFFRAFF!
[cheers and applause]
THAT IS WHY THERE'S
THE RIFFRAFF ROOM.
I DON'T THINK ANYBODY KNEW THAT.
WE CALL IT THE RIFFRAFF ROOM,
AND IT'S USUALLY OVERFLOWING
WITH, YOU KNOW, LIKE 100 PEOPLE
EVERY SINGLE DAY,
BECAUSE WE WANTED
AN OVERFLOW AREA.
AND TOM WAS HERE, HE NAMED IT
THE RIFFRAFF ROOM,
AND IN HONOR OF THAT,
WE LOVE YOU AROUND HERE,
AND WE WANTED TO GIVE YOU--
WE HAVE GIVEN DREW BREES
A SEAT IN THE AUDIENCE.
HE IS, OF COURSE,
THE QUARTERBACK FROM MY TEAM,
THE SAINTS.
AND SO DREW BREES HAS A SEAT,
AND NOW YOU HAVE YOUR OWN SEAT
IN THE AUDIENCE.
WHENEVER YOU WANT TO SEND
ANYONE HERE,
THEY ARE GONNA SIT IN
TOM HANKS'...
[cheers and applause]
AN HONORARY SEAT.
- THANK--CAN I JUST GO SEE
WHAT THE SHOW LOOKS LIKE
FROM THERE RIGHT NOW?
- YES, YOU CAN,
BUT I HAVE--
[cheers and applause]
BEFORE YOU DO THAT,
BECAUSE WE'RE GONNA HAVE
TO GO TO BREAK AFTER THIS--
BEFORE YOU DO THAT,
YOU WILL SEE THIS MAN
AT THE OSCARS FOR SURE.
YOU WILL SEE HIM FOR
"SAVING MR. BANKS,"
AND IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN
"CAPTAIN PHILLIPS,"
HE IS BRILLIANT
IN "CAPTAIN PHILLIPS."
BRILLIANT.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
GO SIT IN YOUR CHAIR.
[cheers and applause]
- HI, EVERYBODY.

COME ON, LET'S SIT DOWN.
ALL RIGHT.
WOW, THIS IS--
- "SAVING MR. BANKS"
OPENS IN SELECT THEATERS
