I want to know

Offensive or hilarious?

Visual description: It's a four-and-a-half minute YouTube video of a MadTV skit where a well-dressed black couple approach an attractive white hostess inside a restaurant. It's not until they choose to sit on the patio (the conversation adds to the humor) that the camera draws back to reveal the wheelchair beside the hostess podium. The hostess struggles to get into the manual and rolls a couple yards to a stairway, which looms upward in the background. Flinging the menus she carries up the stairs ahead of her, she then drops out of the chair and precedes to drag herself and the chair halfway up the stairs while reciting the restaurant specials for the day. (Much arguing in dialogue here.) When the couple ask to see the manager, she starts dragging herself down the stairs to go get him. In a panic, the couple flee the restaurant. The hostess calls for another employee, Angelo, to report that "a couple ditched their reservation." Angelo is at the top of the stairs and uses wrist crutches. The comedy is visual as he struggles and lunges down the stairs and out the door after the couple while the hostess lays at the bottom of the stairs next to her wheelchair.
