The program starts with Johnny Carson paying a cockeyed tribute to Benny. Carson insists that Benny was his childhood idol and that his effort to imitate Benny’s prancing walk was “the only time in my life I’ve been arrested.” When Benny comes out, he expresses irritation that Carson imagines he is retiring. Says Carson in response: “If you’re not quitting, why am I working for free?” And Benny answers: “Because I’m your idol!”
