| Insane Asylum Situation: The Beatles, having been found just setting fire to their flat, were hauled off to the nuthouse for evaluation, & now they all sit in a room constrained by straight-jackets. But before anyone can find out they're all a bunch of psychos... John: Fire, fire, fire... Paul: Where did we go wrong? Ringo: I think it might have been SETTING OUR FLAT ON FIRE! Paul: We'll die in 'ere. I'll never shag another groupie again! DAMMIT! Brian: Hey, will one of you loosen my straight-jacket? It's a bit tight. Ringo: They're supposed to be tight for restraining psychos like John & keeping George from throwing jellybeans! George: I'm not touching you, Brian, <hiccup> in fact, I think I'll throw up now... Paul: In the corner, drunk! (Paul kicks Geoge in the direction of the corner.) George: <RREEETCH!> <BLLEEEEAAAAAHGGHHHH!!> Brian: Eew...sick! John: Fire, fire, fire... Paul: Oh, sharrup John! There's no fire! (Paul looks around at everyone else.) Paul: Didn't we snap him out of it? Didn't we? Ringo: Calm down. As long as you don't act like a fucking psycho, they just might let us out. Brian: Look, the window. (There is a psychiatrist and five white rabbits [or guards] looking at them through the window.) Ringo: Oh good, actual people. (Psychiatrist and white rabbits enter room.) Psychiatrist: Hello, I'm Dr. Dick Rubbit and this is Sunny Nut Psychiatric Institution. Can you tell me your names? John: Fire... Paul: Paul McCartney. George: <hiccup> George. Ringo: Richard Starkey. Dr. Rubbit: & a gay guy, I see. Aren't you guys in some kind of group? George: We're the bloody fuckin' <hiccup> Beatles, man! (Ringo manages to stand up and face Dr. Rubbit.) Ringo(quietly): Look, George is piss drunk, John's a bit mad around fire, y'know, Paul an' me are alright & Brian's a little flitty, so could you just cut us a break or somethi- Dr. Rubbit: No. Absolutely not; all of you must be evaluated at once and kept in separate quarters, especially Brian. George: He's our manager, & our friend! <sob> Paul: We're not insane! I promise! (The Beatles and thier manager are dragged out & put in separate quarters.) Ringo(thought): People aren't born psycho. They're made psycho by being alone in a creepy little padded room with a straight-jacket restraining your every movement. John(thought): Fire, fire, fire... George(singing elevator music): Doot doot doo, do do do doo, do do do doo... Paul(in his mind): Paul...Paul; this is yer Dad speakin'!..Hands above the covers! Paul(out loud): Sharrup! I don't need you anymore! I can see John if I want to! You're not the boss of me now! I don't want to be you! GO AWAY! Paul's Dad: Someday, you'll be ugly like me & the girls won't like you! Paul: SHUT UP! (Silence, then a tapping sounds from the window.) Paul: SHUT UP! Muffled voice: Over here, Paul, your window! (Paul stands up, & looks out the window that faces the garden.) Muffled voice(American accent): Paul! (Sees a girl with green eyes and long brown hair through the window.) Paul: Hello, luv. (Paul seems to regain some of his sanity.) Girl: We're gonna get you out of here somehow. Where's the rest of you guys? Where's Ringo? Paul: In the other rooms, next to me. Wait, don't go yet. Who's we? Who are you? What's yer name? Girl: The name's Siobhan and you'll find all that other crap out later. (Paul hears another American muffled voice say something about her shoulders hurting.) Siobhan: See ya-AHH! Sarah, you dropped me! (Paul still gazes out the window, trying to get her and her green-haired, brown eyed-friend to come back.) Dr. Rubbit(looking at Paul through the door window): Talking to himself. Put that down in the notes & first thing tomorrow, Paul gets evaluated. White Rabbits: Right boss. (Outside with Siobhan & Sarah...) Sarah: What're we gonna do? This might be one of the lower security institutions, but it's damn near impossible to breach! Siobhan: You're the one who likes explosives! Sarah: Well I wouldn't want to damage it too badly, even though blowing it to Klorh would be neat. Siobhan: Wait! Idea, but you can't laugh. Sarah: What? Siobhan: Call your alter-ego Sid and tell her to wear a bikini and nothing but. Sarah: She might steal Ringo; she's shorter than he is. She's also not one to be prancing around half-naked & she's always trying to get money to buy things for her creepy little island, anyway. You wouldn't want her to steal Ringo, would you? Siobhan: Okay then, never mind. Wait, idea number 2 has arrived! Sarah: Spill yer beans. Siobhan: I'll be back... (Siobhan runs into the building.) Sarah: Siobhan! DAMMIT! (10 minutes later...) Siobhan(giggling): This might help! It's a ring from you-know-who worth enough to bribe the pants off anyone in that nuthouse! Sarah: I don't know, Dr. Rubbit's prob'ly got a mind-control thing over the guards. Maybe I should call Sid & ask for some explosives...oh, but we'd have to wait 'till tomorrow. Hey, we could commit ourselves! Siobhan: How 'bout just one of us? Or one on either end of the building so we each get 2 of 'em. & you get Brian. |
