| Monkey Wish-Hand Situation: The Beatles & their manager have just ran out of Rockafeller Center Studios & are chasing Al Gore in pursuit of finding out the contents of his much coveted lock-box, through the only forest in New York, which happens to be about 20 feet away from where they ran. What the Beatles & Co. don�t know (but have suspected before) is that Al Gore is a robot, & everyone knows robots can run faster than humans� John: Run FASTER! (Ringo speeds up just as Al Gore reaches a bridge over a stream & pushes him in.) Gore: No! My precious corrupt circuits! <splash!> AAAAAAA-<glub, glub>-ZZZZZZZZZAAPPZZTTT!! George: You need to stop pushing people off of things. Ringo: No I don�t! George: Do so! Ringo: DO FRIGGING NOT! George: Do so! Do so! Do so! Do so! Do so! Do- John: Shurrup! I got the box! Let�s open it�uh, Ringo, get a rock, George, get a stick. (Couple minutes pass by where the two go off in the woods to get the items.) Paul: Not a flipping twig, you grotty bastard! George: Well you didn�t say. I�ll get another one then. John: Let�s bash the box with a rock! Brian: Won�t open. Paul: We�re in the middle of a large forest & George can�t find a bloody stick to pry this open with? John: Well he ain�t back yet, so c�mere Paul. Ringo: Let�s bash the box with his chin! Paul: Wha-? (John strikes Paul�s chin against the box a couple times, accidentally giving Paul a bloody nose.) Paul: Ow! OW! STOP! Brian: Suppose you broke his chin yet? Ringo: I hope so-er, I mean, uh, heh heh, you know, uh� John: Shut up & go find George. (5 minutes later�) George: Hello guys! Here�s that stick. Brian, get out from behind me NOW! Brian: I was looking for Ringo. Where is he? George: Getting his foot out of a bear trap. He stepped in it on our way back. Paul: A bear trap? In New York? George: & a bunch of middle school dropouts babbling about human sacrifice. I�d have liked to watch, but you were waiting, so- Paul: Dumbshit! They�re lunatics, & we�re about to lose the only guy weird enough to stand us & keep us in a group to their filthy moronic ways! (George kicks Paul.) George: Take that back! I�m not a dumbshit! John: Oi-George-don�t you have anything in those bottomless pockets of yours we could use? Ringo: I�m back, but my foot still hurts like a mother- George: Uh, lemme see� Ringo: Aack! Mmmfph! (Huge pile of lint empties from George�s pockets onto Ringo.) Brian: Where�d Shorty go? John: Don�t know, only care vaguely. Paul: Does it matter? Brian: That�s peculiar, concerning that just a minute ago you made a huge fuss over his disappearance. Pile of Lint: RRRRR! Mmmpphfff! Brian: George, the huge pile of lint is talking to you. George: Look! I found a crowbar! John: Why do you carry around a�? Pile of Lint: RR-MMMPH! (George sets the crowbar to pry open the box.) Paul: Wha�d you say, lint? Pile of lint: MMM-MPHER-MMPHKHER!! Grr� (George lifts the pile of lint off of Ringo.) George: Ringo! Stop hiding & help us with the box! Ringo: But my foot- John: Stop crying, baby. (They all put their weight into the crowbar.) Brian: Oh John, your arms are so strong! John: SHIT! (SNAP! The crowbar breaks.) George: What�ve you done to my beautiful crowbar?! Ringo: Damn-snapped clean in half. Paul (sarcasm): Well why don�t you just try my chin again? John: Why don�t we? (A few more cracks with the chin & the box is bashed open.) George: Well that was easy. Paul: �Sez you! John: What�s that? Gear! (Ringo picks up the item that was once inside the lock box.) Ringo: Hmm�Looks like a shrunken hand. I don�t think it�s human though. Too hairy. (Ringo looks at the back of the hand.) Ringo: There�s summat singed into it, look. George: M..mon�key�uh�w-wish�h-ha- John: Gimme that-Here, idiot. <ahem> Monkey Wish Hand. Brian: I�ve heard about these things. Each finger signifies a wish it will grant you, & there�s five wishes, because there are five fingers, &-what do you know? There�s five of us. John: Stop being so gay, Brian. Okay, I want my-hey, what�s this? Ringo: Oh, there�s more! It says �No love wishes, bringing back the dead or wishing for more wishes.� Brian: No love wishes? Darn� Paul: We should wish to break the rules, but I�d waste my wish. Brian: Don�t look at me! I�m not giving mine up. (A nearby bush rustles & out comes a motley group of about 20 demented middle-schoolers.) |
