[opening narration]::Bill Lawson: There are stories epic, and grand stories that are forever lost in the sands of time, forgotten or changed by cruel kings who can hear only the whispers of these lost legends. Still other tales become too frightening for future generations to impart to their young. But other stories are lost to us because they don't test well with recruited audiences, or because a movie is too long, and the story must be cut for time. This is one of those tales. This is the chaff from the wheat, the skim from the milk, the pudding from the all-you-can-eat lobster buffet, and the surgeon guy from Prince and the Revolution. This is the lost movie "Wake Up, Ron Burgundy."

Champ Kind: I will eat your face off your bones, Fantana!

Bartender: Son of a man nipple!

Ron Burgundy: [while making love to Veronica Corningstone] Hey, wake the black lady up.

Brian Fantana: Come on guys, don't eat me! Eat Brick! He won't even care. Right Brick?::Brick Tamland: Oh yeah, that's fine.

Ron Burgundy: [singing] Hush little baby daddy's going to eat you...

Plot: Aimilia, a young and relatively well-to-do woman, leads a rather schizophrenic existence. Every day, she gives piano lessons to the children at an orphanage, while at night she brings home a series of lovers whom she picks up at random and whom she kills while in a sexual frenzy. The film explains her behavior as the result of a traumatic childhood event when she witnessed her mother being murdered by Paris, the man whom her mother abused and humiliated. Nikos, a criminal hunted by the police, who goes into her house one night to hide a package of money, discovers her secret. The money is destined for "Mother", the mother of his girlfriend Kaiti, who assigns the hit-man Iosif to kill Nikos. The police suspect Aimilia, but she tries to make Nikos appear the real murderer of her victims. The latter visits her to get his money and, miraculously, Aimilia is cured of her murderous mania in his arms. Both of them, however, are murdered by Iosif, who is also killed soon thereafter by the policemen who have the house under surveillance.
