Goofs
When Chris Rock is delivering a routine about Will Smith, at one point he accidentally mentions Emancipation (2022) (which he talks about later) instead of Concussion (2015). As the broadcast is live, he admits his mistake, saying: "No, not Emancipation; I fucked up the joke. Concussion."

Quotes
Chris Rock: Four easy ways to get attention.
[one]
Chris Rock: Number one easiest way to get attention, show your ass. Show your ass! You will get attention, even if you don't got ass! That's the world we live in. It's why Blac Chyna has more followers than Gayle King. 'Cause Chyna is showing that ass.
[two]
Chris Rock: Number two easiest way to get attention is to be infamous. Yeah. Do some fucked up shit. Shoot up a school. Try to stab Dave Chappelle at a show. That's right, infamy. You will get attention.
[three]
Chris Rock: Number three easiest way to get attention, to be excellent. That's right. Like Serena Williams, greatest tennis player to ever play the game. Absolutely excellent! Being excellent will get you attention, but it's hard being excellent. You gotta get up in the morning. You gotta work out. You gotta practice. It is much easier to show your ass.
[four]
Chris Rock: And the number four easiest way to get attention is to be a victim. It's like "Where he going with this?" Don't get me wrong, there's no victim-shaming going on. No. No, no, no, no. There are real victims in this world. There are people that have gone through unspeakable trauma, and they need your love, your support, and they need your care. But if everybody claims to be a victim when the real victims need help, ain't nobody gonna be there to help them, okay? Right now, we live in a world where the emergency room is filled up with motherfuckers with paper cuts.
