Joey: NOW, THAT'S COOL.

Buddy: NOW, THAT IS SOMETHING ELSE.

WE GOT A CALL FROM THE PARK RANGERS

OVER AT THE STATUE OF LIBERTY,

AND THEY WANTED US TO MAKE A CAKE.

YOU KNOW,

THEY ASK YOU TO MAKE A CAKE FOR THE STATUE OF LIBERTY,

AUTOMATICALLY, YOU GOT TO MAKE THE STATUE.

THE PROBLEM WITH THE STATUE OF LIBERTY CAKE,

IT'S NOT THE WIDTH.

IT'S THE HEIGHT --

TO GET IT OUTDOORS, TO GET IT INTO TRUCKS.

YOU WOULD ONLY BE ABLE TO GO ABOUT 8 FOOT TALL.

IF I'M DOING SOMETHING FOR THE STATUE OF LIBERTY,

I'M GOING BIG OR I'M GOING HOME.

SO, YOU KNOW, THE ONLY THING THAT WE CAN DO

IS MAKE IT INTO TWO PIECES, MAKE THE BASE, MAKE THE STATUE.

SCREW IT ALL TOGETHER, AND IT'LL BE HUGE.

SHE LOOKS SAD, RALPH.

SHE'S VERY STERN.

CAN I FIX IT? NO.

LOOK.

A LITTLE BIT? NO.

JUST, LOOK, LIKE, IF YOU JUST TAKE...

GRACE, NO.

SEE THIS? AND, LIKE, UP.

YOU KNOW WHO DOES THINGS LIKE THIS?

NO, BUT, LOOK. MARY DOES THINGS LIKE THIS.

IF YOU JUST GO LIKE THIS -- LOOK, UP.

YEAH, BUT SHE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THAT. SHE'S STERN.

LOOK AT --

WHY DID THEY MAKE HER LOOK LIKE THIS?

WELL, SHE REPRESENTS A LOT OF THINGS THAT ARE DIFFICULT.

SHE'S NOT A HAPPY LADY. SHE LOOKS VERY SERIOUS.

A LITTLE BIT MORE. A LITTLE MORE.

LOOK. IT LOOKS BETTER ALREADY.

BUDDY SAID IT'S GOT TO LOOK JUST LIKE HER.

NO, THAT'S BETTER. YEAH.

THAT'S BETTER.

HOW STURDY IS THIS?

IT AIN'T GOING ANYWHERE.

WILL IT SUPPORT ME IF I STAND ON IT?

IT'LL SUPPORT FRANKIE, MAURO,

AND ANYBODY ELSE THAT YOU COULD GET ON IT.

THAT'S PRETTY STURDY.

Buddy: IT'S GOT TO BE A HUGE, BEAUTIFUL,

EXACT REPLICA OF THE STATUE.

TIP IT TO MO.

[ WOOD CRACKS ]

OH! AHH!

IT'S THE BOTTOM! IT'S THE BOTTOM. IT'S FINE.

Buddy: I MEAN, THE BASE IS 2/3 OF THE WHOLE THING.

I GOT IT. I GOT IT.

OH, YEAH.

Mauro: YOU KNOW WHERE THE GUY WENT?

THE GUY WENT ALL OVER. THE GUY WENT TO NIAGARA FALLS.

HE WENT UP AND DOWN THE EASTERN SEABOARD,

I GUESS, LOOKING FOR A SPOT TO PUT THE STATUE.

THERE'S A PICTURE OF HIM AT NIAGARA FALLS.

THEY WERE GONNA PUT IT THERE.

EH, IT WOULDN'T HAVE WORKED.

WELL, HE WAS SMART ENOUGH TO COME BACK HERE,

TO COME BACK TO NEW JERSEY TO DO IT.

EXACTLY.

Buddy: YOU KNOW, ANYTIME ANYTHING'S THIS ICONIC,

YOU'RE A LITTLE BIT MORE NERVOUS

'CAUSE YOU WANT IT TO REALLY BE AWESOME.

FROM THERE UP, WE'LL DO ALL THESE ROMAN COLUMNS.

'CAUSE SHE IS A ROMAN GODDESS.

WHERE'S ROME, LIZ? ITALY.

[ SNAPS FINGERS ] THAT'S ALL. I'M NOT GONNA SAY NOTHING ELSE.

Buddy: THE WAY I SEE IT,

SHE STAYS PRETTY MEATY THROUGHOUT HERE.

YEAH.

YEAH, I'M GONNA START TAKING A BITE OUT OF HER BACK,

PUTTING HER SHOULDERS IN, AND FINDING WHERE HER BUTT IS.

Woman: THAT'S A SLEEVE.

WE'RE NOT GONNA SEE THIS, RIGHT?

YOU'RE NOT GONNA PUT NOTHING ELSE ON TOP OF HERE.

IT'S GOT TO COME...

RIGHT. ...ACROSS THAT WAY.

SO KEEP IT TIGHT UP HERE.

AND THEN SPREAD IT OUT AS IT GOES.

Mauro: I LOVE AMERICA.

I MEAN, ITALY'S ALWAYS IN MY HEART,

BUT THE UNITED STATES IS NUMBER ONE.

I'M HERE, AND THIS IS MY COUNTRY.

THIS IS WHERE MY KIDS WERE BORN.

BRING IT UP HERE, BUNCH IT UP, AND LET IT HANG.

THE LAST ONE SHOULD BE, LIKE, RIGHT HERE.

THAT'LL BE THE END OF IT.

Buddy: WE GOT TO KEEP THE STATUE SEPARATED

AND THEN ASSEMBLE IT ON THE STATUE'S ISLAND ITSELF.

THIS IS DEFINITELY GONNA BE A CHALLENGE MOVING,

BUT HOPEFULLY WE CAN MAKE IT WORK.

I DON'T THINK SO. GO AHEAD. PUSH IT UP.

Mauro: LOOK AT THE WAY THAT BOAT'S ROCKING.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE PROBLEMS PUTTING THIS ON TOP.

Buddy: OKAY, 1, 2, 3, GO.

AND I'M A LITTLE SCARED,

BECAUSE THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT THERE IS A BOAT.

Maddalena: OOH, WATCH!

Buddy: TURN IT.

WAIT. WAIT. WAIT. TURN IT. TURN IT.

OH, OH, OH, OH! AAH!

AND PUT IT ON TOP OF THIS MAGNITUDE AND THIS SIZE,

WE HAD THIS LIKE 12-TO-14-FOOT STRUCTURE,

WALKING THROUGH THE ISLAND,

AND EVERYBODY STOPPING AND LOOKING AT IT,

TAKING PICTURES IN AMAZEMENT, IN AWE.
