    Storyline

    • Trivia
      During the Samurai Stockbroker sketch, John Belushi accidentally sliced Buck Henry's forehead with his Samurai Sword. For the rest of the show, Henry wears a Band-Aid on his forehead. As a running joke, the whole cast puts Band-Aids on their foreheads throughout the episode.
    • Goofs
      John Belushi struggles several times to get his sword seated properly in its sheath. He continues acting while working with it. Eventually he gives up and lets it go half seated.
    • Quotes

      Chevy Chase: Our top story tonight: Buck Henry cuts himself in the forehead in a sketch on the Saturday Night show... as a far gone and downed and drugged-out John Belushi hits him with a sword.
