Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph present the Oscar...
KRISTEN: Six beautiful -- some say handsome, women invited by the Academy not only to present three awards, but also to shatter the common belief that size does not matter. I hate to tell you guys this, but it kinda does.
MAYA: Yes, but not length. (Beat.) As my grandma used to say: it can be short and still make your toes curl. And I believe, in my heart, my grandma wasn't referring to wieners, but to short films.
KRISTEN: See, I'd rather have a short film with some heft that's nice to me rather than a long film that just lies there and makes you do all the work.
MAYA: Yeah, but sometimes a film can be too long.
KRISTEN: Not for me.
MAYA: What?

Interviewer: Last question. What is the most intense situation you have ever been in?
Jesse Eisenberg: I have been mugged and beaten on the street in NY, so yeah, probably that. I was knocked out in the street in NY, off my bike, into a pillar and went to the hospital. That was kind of intense. Sorry, not anything fun to tell.
Interviewer: It didn’t need to be fun.
Jesse: Oh good, good, just honest?
Interviewer: Yeah.
Jesse: So that was interesting. You grow as a person and shrink as an animal. Yeah, that was a bad day.
Interviewer: Was it a long time ago or..?
Jesse: Maybe three years. So I’m still recovering. I only have 200 more therapy sessions left before I’m cured and will be okay.
