Super Dave welcomes Tony Cox, head of the network, who is up in the box. He then holds the Super Dave Recollection Contest, where audience members watch a clip of one of Super's stunts, and win prizes for remembering a specific detail about the clip. Two of the clips feature the Super Dave Stunt School from BIZARRE. After the contest, Tony berates Super Dave for how he presents his show, much to Super's annoyance. Bobby McFerrin sings "All I Want". Super and Fuji present their new "Presidential Safety Vehicle" that allows the President of the United States to present himself in a parade. The vehicle features a seat enclosed in safety glass which is height adjustable, and the "Goodwill Hand of Peace" which is a giant hand that waves at the crowds.
