| (The Mad Scientist pushes a button & the chain pulls in the dog, the trap door closes & the cage door opens. George runs out shakily, but trips over the alarm clock, then falls face first to the ground.) Paul: Maybe you should get up George. George? M. S: Well, I wouldn�t expect him to after falling into a pool of ether. Just move him & he�ll eventually come out of it. John: How do you calculate our pay anyhow? M. S: Secret formula. It�s definitely too complex for you to understand. John: Try me. M. S: Er�okay so I don�t have a formula. It�s hourly. Don�t worry about it. If you don�t damage anything, it should come out to quite a lot. John: So I sez to Ringo, I sez-oh wait, were you saying something? I was talking to Paul see� M. S: Forget it. Who�s next for another experiment, eh? (John pushes Paul forward.) M. S: All right then. Let�s go over here to this contraption. Paul, I want you to get up onto this platform & lean against it�s adjacent backrest. Now where are the Ringos? Ringo 1: Over here! I was just talking with me other me. Ringo 2: Me too. M. S: So you have worked out your, uh, un-differences? Good. Now, you two & John strap in Paul, & I will calibrate the equipment. John: No! M. S: Why not? John: No reason. Brian: I�ll help. Paul: No you won�t! Brian: You know, your stereotypes are hurtful. Ringo 2: Look, don�t even worry about it. Me & me will do it. (The Mad Scientist puts a large metallic helmet on Paul�s head, which has a bunch of wires & tubes coming out of it attached to a large machine, with more wires coming out on the other side & into another very small helmet, on the head of a rabbit in a cage. Finally all the precautionary stuff is out of the way. Everyone�s a bit confused as to what is about to take place except for the Mad Scientist.) Paul: Uh, what exactly is going to happen to me? M. S: See that rabbit over there? John: Whuh-oh�Yeah, what about it? M. S: Do you know what rabbits like to do best? Ringo 1: Yep, & that�s disgusting. Please don�t elaborate any more. John: Poor bunny�Are you switching their minds? M. S: I�m transporting some of the natural brain criteria into the cranium of this young fellow. Paul: Okay, that�s not so bad. Ringo 2: Yes it is, but it probably won�t make much difference since this is Paul we�re talking about. John: What part of his brain are you transporting anyway? M. S: The instinctive part. Brian: Eeew! M. S: Turn it on. (A humming noise begins to emanate from the machine & Paul�s face becomes unusually serene.) John: �20 says nothing�s different. Ringo 1: Yer on! I say he starts hoppin� around & craving carrots. (Paul is unstrapped from the machine & he stumbles off the platform unsteadily.) Paul: I�m hungry. M. S: Paul, I have just taken brain mass from a rabbit & implanted it into your mind. You may experience dizziness, nausea- Paul: Hey, any byrds �round these parts or what? John: Well that�s no different. Hey Shorty, buck over with that pretty polly! Ringo 1: Wrong Ringo. It was him! Ringo 2: No, it was him! I�m not stupid enough to make a bet with you! Ringo 1: Yes you are! Ringo 2: Grrr! Say it to my face you shminking waffle! Paul: Eeek! I�m s-s-scared of f-fights! (Paul runs behind John & Brian for safety.) John: George! Loud noises scare bunnies too! DON�T THEY PAUL?!! Brian: Asshole. M. S: Will you please stop those two from fighting? Brian: But it�s funny because neither of them has 10 fingers! M. S: Well are you happy now? One of them has a carving knife. Paul: Nooo! I�m too cute to die!! I think my heart is gonna explode! Oh no! (Paul runs through the lab into the back-room, then quickly returns.) Paul: There�s a girl-thing back there. John: She�s not a virgin anymore, huh? Paul: I left her alone. Am I allowed to though? Please? George: Lemme see her, we�ll decide after. (Everyone but the quarreling Ringos go to see the girl in the back-room. She is starved-looking, bound, gagged & sleeping. Something doesn�t look quite right about her & the Beatles seem to vaguely recognize her.) John: Why�s she all tied up? Brian: When did George awake? George: I dunno. Why�s she look familiar? M. S: You know this creature? She has physical appendages that- John: Say no more! I do know her! Wake up, you! Girl: Mmmm? Brian: Oh it�s Zoraa�the mateless, specieless freak who lives between insanity & heaven. M. S: If you can get her to speak with you, I�d be more than happy to let you un-gag her. Brian: Okay. Zoraa: Don�t expect an ass-raping civil word from my mother-fucking mouth, because that dumbnut scientist seems to think I�m his idiotic humanoid lab-rat! John (whispering to Zoraa): If I let you go, will you take me to Sid? Zoraa: No chance, dickweed! M. S: I�m doing a study on this odd specimen. Especially why she reacts so aggressively to everyday stimuli� Zoraa: Maybe because you tie me up for days then poke me with your theories so you can get a name for yourself in the scientific community or some other shminkingly retarded shitterific reason like that! Why don�t you just ask, you nerdy, emotionless, useless unesjemm?!!?! |
