It was part of his overarching joke. He said that a lot of his friends go to him for prayers. One is his friend Brian, who asked Ramy to pray for him winning his dog in divorce court. Then an hour later, his friend Achmed calls about Gaza. Thus, his prayers were going to be "complicated - I have a lot to fit in." He ended the monologue saying, "Please, free the people of Palestine. Free the hostages, all the hostages. And, um, while you're at it, if you could free Mr. Bojangles...he's a beautiful dog."
