This was written previous from learning of this site. In that time, I wrote a "parody", where I changed the names and wrote them in a sort of movie scripting form. In a latter date, I may even change this to a form easier to understand to the outsider.
The "Lords of Parody" is a group that takes popular films and adds some comedy and removes any particularily adult content. I have written other "scripts" besides this one, and I invite you to look at them as well. On that note, enjoy the script.

Other Officer #1: No, but I'm looking.

OO2: What so important about this case anyway?
Johnson: For the last time, it's the only thing going on here except for reruns of "Full House".
OO1: That's pretty pathetic.
Johnson: No kidding. Wish the writer would think outside of the plotline. I mean, If I had any life outside of my job-
OO2: Look! Over there! That's our guy!
Johnson: Name?
OO2: No other name other than the one the neighbor lady gave us, "Danny". Nothing else.

Waiter: gets up What in the world is going on?
Danny: Watch out! Merlinator has already taken out his gun and has pulled the trigger about halfway. Waiter ducks and lives.
Danny: In short, you've gotten stuck in a sticky situation. t
Wrong place, wrong time.
Waiter: So who is he really- beat, realizes He's after Linnea Conner. But he doesn't know what she looks like? What is his motive?
Danny: It's a long story, now listen, once we leave here, I wt
ant you to call the police. That way maybe it can be a distraction from his mission.

Johnson: looking out the window And a dead would-be suspect.
Shot of Merlinator, lying on the side of the road.
OO1: Ouch.
OO2: Poor thing. Never got a chance.
Johnson: Sure, whatever. If he's really important to the plot, he's be really alive and just faking dead. If dogs can to it, so can people.
OO1: So what now?
Johnson: Billy, bring 'em downtown.
Scene 8
Police Station
Suspect Room
Linnea Conner is sitting in the suspect room with Danny. They are sitting quietly, and Linnea dares to speak.
Linnea: Why do you want to kill me?
Beat
Danny: If you really want to know, I'm not here to kill you.
Linnea: to herself That's a lot of help.
Danny: No, really I'm here to help. Beat Do you want to know who REALLY is trying to kill you?
Linnea: Who? What horrible man would want to kill me?
Danny: Not a man, a blonde. Half man, half merlin. I didn't know who it was until he struck.
Linnea: Can't you tell?
Danny: Not with this one; the M-600 series were easy to spot. They had rubber skin, so they really could stand out in a crowd. But these ones, they're made out of latex.
Linnea: Ooh.
Danny: I know, right? So, I waited until he struck to track him down.
Linnea: But why kill those other Linnea Conners first?
Danny: See, he didn't know what you looked like. He had to go completely on programming, no picture, only name. The Merlinator was just going methodically.
Linnea: Programmings? Like a robot?
Danny: Not a robot, a Cyborgitetic Blonde. This is the M-800 series, the first series to have real fake blood coming out of him. The most realistic of the series by far.
Linnea: Wait a second, you know that NASA isn't able to be close to making THOSE yet.
Danny: No. Not for about 50 years.
Linnea: You're…
Danny: Yes…
Linnea: REALLY OLD???
Danny: NO, you idiot, I'm from the future!
Linnea: Ohhhh! I get it!
Danny: Right.

Johnson: Good morning, Danny.
Danny: Danny Reese to you.

Smith: Good Morning, Mr. Reese. Tell me; Are you the one trying to kill Linnea Conner?
Danny: No.
Smith: Who is?
Danny: His name is the Merlinator.
Smith: The Merlinator, what in the world is that?
Danny: Weren't you listening earlier? Smith give Danny apologetic look Oh, come on! Here's the flashback:
Footage of earlier footage:
Linnea: Who? What horrible man would want to kill me?
Danny: Not a man, a blonde. Half man, half Merlin. I didn't know who it was until he struck-until he struck-until he struck-
Current time:
Smith: I see, but I didn't know that technology was that advanced yet.
Danny: Oh my god, you must me kidding me.
Flashback:
Linnea: You know that NASA isn't able to be close to making THOSE yet.
Danny: No. Not for about 50 years.
Current:
Smith: Fifty years?
Danny: Give or take. In the year 2056, a war began; A holocaust really.
Smith: A Holocost? How do you know this?
Danny: I was there.
Smith: OK, how could you be here if you are here now?
Danny: A time machine.
Smith: A time machine that transports you to another time, but leaves you naked?
Danny: I DIDN'T BUILD THE GOSH DARN THING, OK????
Smith: Sorry. Didn't know it was a touchy subject.
Danny: It's OK.
Smith: But then it let this "Merlinator" thing in too?
Danny: That's right. I was sent immediately here once we heard of this "Merlinator" being sent back.
Smith: But why kill Linnea Conner?
Danny: It's not her; It's her child.
Outside the room
Linnea and Johnson are listening to a speaker
Johnson: Oh my god, oh my god…
Linnea: You think he's crazy?
Johnson: You don't?
Suspect room
Danny: Linnea Conner's son, Sean Conner, is the one that will lead all of the people out of the darkness. All of the Blondes were taking over. He was the one that started fighting back. We had won. This was their last move. Kill him before he's born.
Johnson: Wow. That's- complicated. You must have had HOURS to think of this.
Danny: I'm not lying! This is real!
Johnson: Of course you are. Tell that to the physiologist at the loony house.
Danny: NO! STOP THE INTERFERENCE! CAN'T YOU SEE? YOU CAN'T STOP HIM! HE WILL GET TO HER! THAT'S WHAT HE DOES! THAT'S ALL HE DOES! Johnson stands up in alarm, and Danny calms down.
Danny: You don't understand. He won't stop. He'll NEVER stop. He's a Merlinator. He will kill whoever gets in his way.
Front Desk
Merlinator walks in.
Man at front desk: How may I help you?
Merlinator: I would like to speak to Linnea Conner.
MAFD: I'm sorry, she's under intensive care.
Merlinator: Right. I am her brother. I would just like to make sure she's OK.
MAFD: Well, that's too bad. Come back in a few hours and you'll be able to see her.
Merlinator: Hm. Beat I'll be right here. He leaves and then, a second later, runs in and runs past MAFD.
MAFD: Come on, is that the best you can think of?
Merlinator comes back out and walks back to the place he ran in, waits a few seconds, and then runs past again, throwing a teddy bear as he passes.
MAFD: Hmmm, not very- another teddy bear flies past.
Suspect room
Smith: What are you going to do if you succeed your mission? How will you travel back?
Danny: Travel back? Yeah right. No, there's no going back. No return to the future. It's just him, and me. A teddy bear flies past And that little teddy bea- wait a second. Gasp TAKE COVER! Hides under table.
Smith: takes out walky talky and starts talking into it GET YOUR GUNS BOYZ! THEY'RE TAKING THE STATION!
Danny: to smith Let me go.
Smith: The door is unlocked.
Danny: Thank you.
Smith: in a squeaky voice, as if Danny might be standing on his stomach No Problem.
Sequence begins consisting basically of the Merlinator walking down a hallway with a bunch of cops trying to stop him and he shoots them down. Shot of Linnea Conner in a room with Johnson.
Johnson: What in the world is going on? Gets up I'm going to see what the trouble is.
Linnea: I'm not sure that's a very good idea-
Johnson: Quiet! I'm the Officer I know what is a good idea is and what a good idea isn't!
Linnea: OK, you go then.
Hallway
Johnson opens the door to the end of the hallway. He sees the Merlinator, and jumps. He regains strength.
Johnson: Uh, uh, uh.... Put your hands in the air! I-I can be real vicious if I want to be. Gr. See? Rar. Very vicious. So you just put down them guns and it's be just fine. He he he. Yeah.
Merlinator: You are such an idiot.
Johnson: You speak English?
Merlinator: It's my second language.
Johnson: Really? What's your first language? Austrian- Spanish- French?
Merlinator: It's a futuristic language used by computers only, know as "Radi-radi-ra."
Johnson: Really? I don't know that one. How do you say "Hello"?
Merlinator: "Radi-radi-ra!"
Johnson: Hm. How do you say, "Please"?
Merlinator: "Radi-radi-ra"!
Johnson: How do you say, "I've lost my puppy"?
Merlinator: "Ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-radi-ra!"
Johnson: Is there anything that does not include "Radi-ra?"
Merlinator: Yes.
Johnson: Well, let's hear.
Merlinator: Hasa lavista baby. Shoots Johnson
Outside suspect room
Linnea is hiding under the desk, terrified. Shot of Linnea's face as a door creaks open and footsteps come nearer and nearer to where she is hiding.
Danny: unsure Linnea?
Linnea, realizing it's Danny jumps out in surprise and joy Danny! Danny Reese! With a serious tone Listen, we've got to get out of here. I just heard Officer Johnson getting shot.
Danny: What about Smith?
Linnea: Dr. Smith just barely escaped, but he got out before anything got bad.
Danny: Good. He seemed like a nice kid, anyhow. OK, so we go to the back way and-
Linnea: the Merlinator's guarding back there. What's plan B?
Danny: Guarding? Oh, shucks. Beat, then sigh I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but I'm afraid it's our only resort.
Linnea: What is it?
Danny: Well...beat OK. So on the count of three we run like manics towards the first exit you can get to!
Linnea: Wait a second, I don't think we should-
Danny: One-two-three go!! runs for his life, Linnea waits for a second, then runs for her life out of the room.
Scene 9
Outside of the building
Danny and Linnea meet up. They both pant a little after running a bit.
Danny: Are you alright?
Linnea: Yeah, you?
Danny: Oh, just fine. Beat We need to be going before the Merlinator finds us again.
Linnea: Yeah. Let's go. They run off.
Merlinator steps out, not seeing Danny and Linnea for miles
Merlinator: Oh, darn. Guess I'm gonna have to wait till the sequel to kill them. Beat NO! What am I saying? I must not give up so easily! Carpi Daium! Seize the day by the seat of my pants! Fly free, brothers and sister, I say FLY FREE!!! at this point, Merlinator is jumping up and down flapping his hands like bird wings. Continues for a moment, realizes the silliness of what he is doing, and stops. How about I just kill Linnea Conner so that I complete my mission. Or, as we say in "Radi-Radi-Ra", Radi-Radi-Radi-Radi! Boink!
The Streets
Danny and Linnea are stumbling around, incredibly tired.
Danny: Uhhh...
Linnea: Help me, help me...
Waiter walks out
Waiter: Well! There you two kids are!
Linnea: Who are you?
Danny: Wait! Takes out a sheet of paper OK, cast list.
Linnea: How did you get that?
Danny: Internet.
Waiter: Oh! I just remembered that I got a box from Amazon today!
Linnea: Really? What is it?
Waiter: Shave the cream! Shaving cream!
Danny: We really ought to copyright that phrase.
Linnea: Whatever.
Waiter: You'll both catch cold if you say there. Why don't you come on inside?
Danny: Sure, as soon as I figure who you are- looks at list OK, we have the Merlinator, and then there's that weird dude that the Merlinator kills, and then there's me, of course, and then that weird neighbor lady, and all of those weird Linnea Conners, and the gun store owner, and the news people, and the roommate, and the weird officer guy, and then I am running away and then there's that waiter- oh, that's you! the waiter guy!
Waiter: Yeah, now what in the world is going on?
Danny: Here's the recap:
Flashback:
OO2: We almost completely creamed Linnea!
OO1: Who cares about Linnea? We have a suspect!
Real Life narration:
Danny: Shows how great those police are. And then they were questioning me like crazy with some idiot doctor.
Flashback:
Linnea: Who? What horrible man would want to kill me?
Danny: Not a man, a blonde. Half man, half merlin. I didn t know who it was until he struck.
Danny: See, he didn t know what you looked like. He had to go completely on programming, no

Danny: Quiet!
Flashback:
Smith: But why kill Linnea Conner?
Danny: It s not her; It s her child.

darkness. All of the Blondes were taking over. He was the one that started fighting back. We had won.
This was their last move. Kill him before he s born.
Danny: You don t understand. He won t stop. He ll NEVER stop. He s a Merlinator. He will kill
whoever gets in his way.
clip of Sequence consisting basically of the Merlinator walking down a hallway with a bunch of cops
trying to stop him and he shoots them down.
Narration ending in shot of Danny:
Danny: The Merlinator slaughtered every single cop in that station. The Merlinator is more powerful than even I imagined.
Waiter: Deep man, real deep. You are coming inside, and I am making you both some nice hot cocoa.
Linnea: OK, sounds fine with me.
Danny: Cool.
Klub Krazy
Linnea and Danny sit at a table while Waiter is making hot chocolate.
Waiter: So tell me more about this child of Linnea Conner's. Why is he so important?
Danny: Sean Conner was the only hope in the resistance. He's kind of a celebrity, as the go in the future. People don't really ask for his autograph, they just admire him a lot. You too.
Linnea: Me?
Danny: Yeah, you would have already died when I was born. You know the reason I came here? Why, to meet the famous Linnea Conner, the one that snapped a M-600 series neck open.
Linnea: Oh, no, no no no! I don't want any of this! I don't want to be famous! I don't want to be some Sigourney Weaver, I just want to be me! I want to be the one that has a job, and maybe even a kid, as long as that kid doesn't have to become some post-apocalyptic savior! I don't want to save the world!
Danny: beat The heck with a hot chocolate, give me some of that.
Waiter: OK, as you wish. pours a glass of something that looks alcoholic Here you go.
Danny drinks it, and slams glass on the table.
Danny: I'm going to bed. stomps out
Waiter: Your words seemed to take a toll on him.
Linnea: Oh, dear, oh my. What have I done? Maybe-maybe I should go talk to him.
Waiter: I'm not sure if that would be such a good idea.
Linnea: Well, do you have any better idea?
Waiter: Alas, I do not. Go, talk to the man. But if he just gets more angry from the talk, don't blame me. Linnea starts walking, but apruptly stops.
Linnea: Wait! I have something to ask you.
Waiter: What is it?
Linnea: Do you think he- you know, Danny, is crazy?
Waiter: Crazy? Crazy? in a dramatic tone of voice Who is to say who is crazy? Maybe the truly insane are the enforcers that believe that the ones insane must be locked up! It's possible that the truly insane are ordinary people like you and I. If nuthouses included all of the nuts of the world, does that mean that it would be everyone's home? Do simple quirks make a man crazy? Does a lack of quirks make a man crazy? Are there people that are truly and fully sane? This is not a question for anyone like you or I, but for a genius, some great philosopher to truly answer.
Linnea: Sure, but what do you think?
Waiter: I don't think so, but then again, who am I to say? My father thought he was a walrus at one point in time.
Linnea: Your daddy had it easy. Danny thinks he's fighting in World War 3.
Waiter: Well? Is he?
Scene 10
The Streets
Danny is sitting on the street, sleeping with a wool blanket on top of him.
Linnea: Hey. Danny? You know, I'm sorry I was so harsh. I mean- all of this. It's just such a big thing, the end of the world. And I mean, It's hard to deal with that, just 48 hours ago I was pretty much nobody, and now I'm some hero? I mean, it's hard. Really hard to even begin to imagine. You know?
Danny: Yeah, I guess. You were always so tough, when I heard about you. You were a hero, and I can get that you don't know heros outside of the TV set. And I guess I need to learn to accept that. But-takes out a photo This is a photo of you. It's pretty much all I had, back in the future. It must not be far off of what you look like now. It could be taken tomorrow for all I know. But I think that this must be when you're with child.
Linnea: I can see that.
Danny: See, I've gone all of this way, through time and space, because of almost solitarily from this picture. You know, I went all of this way, for one person. That person is you. You, Linnea. Sure, it might, deep down somewhere, have some trace of love of justice, for the need to save Sean Conner, but mostly, it's for you. I need you, Linnea.

Waiter is sweeping up the club while whistling "The Andy Griffith Show" theme. Suddenly, he realizes that the camera is looking at him and looks at the camera awkwardly.
Waiter: Well? What the world are you doing looking at me for?
Title come up saying: Time Passes.
Waiter: Oh, I see. There is a random scene going on in the last place so you're just going to the place that would seem at least mildly fit for another scene. So while those peeps do whatever, I'm gonna do a completely random scene that has nothing to do with the plot, but can take up some time.
JAMES BLOND enters
Waiter: Who are you?
Blond: The name's Blond, James Blond.
Waiter: But this isn't a James Blond movie, "From Japan with Hate" or, if "From Japan with Hate is really done "You Only Live Thrice" isn't even filmed yet!
Blond: So what? I still am awesome!
Waiter: But you're completely unrelated to the plotline!
Blond: But I'm STILL awesome and something must take up all of this space that otherwise would be nothing!
Waiter: OK, fine, what was your plan?
Blond: Well, I don't know. How about we do an Abbot and Costello sketch?
Waiter: Sure!
Baseball Stadium
Blond: Who's on first?
Waiter: Yep.
Blond: Who?
Waiter; That's right?
Blond: But who is it?
Waiter: I know, why are you so insistent about it?
Blond: Whatever. Who's on second?
Waiter: No. Who's on first.
Blond: What?
Waiter: Who's on first, what's on second.
Blond: I don't know, dirt?
Waiter: No, What.
Blond: I don't know, what?
Waiter: What's on second.
Blond: How am I supposed to know?
Waiter: Listen: Who's on first, and What is on on second?
Blond: I don't know, What?
Waiter: You're getting it!
Blond: Who's on Third?
Waiter: Who as in the who in question form?
Blond: Yeah, I guess.
Waiter: I don't know.
Blond: What do you mean you don't know! Are you paying any attention to this game?
Waiter: Of course I am.
Blond: Then why aren't you telling me who's on Third?
Waiter: But he's not, I don't know's on third!
Blond: Who?
Waiter: I don't know!
Blond: Then pay attention!
Waiter: I am!
Blond: Then tell me Who is on first.
Waiter: Yes. Who is on first.
Blond: That's what I asked you.
Waiter: And you are right.
Blond: What?
Waiter: That's right. He's on second.
Blond: Thank you.
Waiter: And I don't know is on third.
Blond: I don't know?
Waiter: YES!
Blond: I DON'T KNOW!!!!
Waiter: THAT'S RIGHT!!!!!
Blond: THANK YOU!!!!
Waiter: You are welcome!
Blond: Goodbye!
Waiter: Goodbye then!
Blond exits
Waiter: Uh…well, now I can finally go back to my sweeping and let you kids go back to your regularly scheduled programming. See yall!
Scene 11
The Streets
Linnea: So what do you think?
Danny: I'm not sure, but from what it looks like, radioactive hiperwaves seemed to have transfered through the sibortic quortex that was just created in our experiment that the audience missed because of some lame Abbott and Costello sketch.
Linnea: I think I know that, but what does this tell us about the Merlinator?
Danny: Well, there is some definite Iporgitronic cell systems hiding inside the Goragrtonic quartex that is powering the Merlinator. I know that there is a way, and that is will be found out within the next 5 minutes of this film, but I'm not sure what. It will come to me.
Linnea: Alright. You think.
Linnea Conner's House
The Merlinator enters. He finds a spoon or some other odd eating utensil in the cupboard. He brings it close to his eye, and a shot of a fake looking eye falling onto the floor. A shot of the Merlinator in a fake looking mask with him without an eye, and under that is just black. He then puts on some sunglasses, and a shot of him without the mask and just the sunglasses.
Merlinator: I like cheese.
The Merlinator looks around in Linnea's house and finds a book of addresses. Looks in the book and zooms up on this caption: My Cabin: (the one that I go to if I'm in a lot of danger, like if someone is trying to kill me) 1826 Hollybear Lane, Holland, MN.
Merlinator: Holland? Cool. I think that'll be a good place to see where they're hiding.
The Streets
Danny: I've got it!
Linnea: What do we have to do?
Danny: Well, I've found out that Cybertechtonic waves are unmanageable and highly explosive if hit by highly magnified sound waves!
Linnea: Which means...
Danny: Which means that in order to destroy the Merlinator....
Linnea: What?
Danny: We have a dance off!
Linnea: Oh, come on! That is the most lame and the most highly used excuse to include a dance in a YPT play! Not for a no dollar budget at least considering a budget movie!
Danny: OK, how about this- OK, give me the cue-
Linnea: Which means...
Danny: Which means that in order to destroy the Merlinator....
Linnea: How?
Danny: We're going to need to play incredibly loud music!
Linnea: Eh, better. Let's go over to my house, I know that my roommate has a ton of hard rock we could use.
Danny: Fine with me.
Linnea's House
Linnea and Danny walk into the house. The house is totally messed up.
Danny: I was here before. This is worse than before. Who could have been in here in the last 24 hours? The Dead Body Squad?
Linnea: No. That smelly thing is still there.
Shot of Roommate dead.
Danny: What about the police?
Linnea: They would have taken the dead body.
Danny: It would have to be someone that didn't use their sense of smell. This place smells like something dead! Maybe even two dead things!
Linnea: Or someone's eye was ripped out.
Danny: That's disgusting, Linnea. Don't even MENTION that.
Linnea: OK, gosh.
Danny: So do you see any music?
Linnea finds several CDs lying on the floor
Linnea: It looks like these CD are all horribly damaged. They aren't even close to being able to play.
Danny: Augg! That's it!
Linnea: What's it?
Danny: The Merlinator was here! Twice! See if he took any of your personal belongings.
Linnea: searching through things All of my valuables are here.
Danny: Unless your valuables are weapons, I'm not sure he would want it. He might have stolen something like maybe a phonebook? Somewhere with lots of addresses.
Linnea: I have an address book! Let me see if I can find it! Looks around and finds it, then pages through it Wait! One page is missing!
Danny: Do you remember what was on that page?
Linnea: Uhhhhh, I think it was my cabin! That's it!
Danny: Do you know where your cabin is?
Linnea: It's just in Holland.
Danny: Holland. Great place.
Linnea: I know. Do you think he would be there?
Danny: Sure, but I think if he doesn't find you there, he'll come strait back here. That means we don't have much time.
Linnea: What do we do?
Danny: I have a great song that would be perfect for the destruction of the Merlinator.
Linnea: What is it?
Danny: Well, it was a sensation back at war camp. It's kind of a dance.
Linnea: Show me.
Danny: Well… It's just a jump to the left, here, jump. She does And then do a step to the right…fade out
The Streets
The Merlinator walks out from behind a big thing of trees and walks purposefully towards the direction of life.
Shot of Merlinator going up to Linnea's house and walking in. He sees no one, so he walks out again.
Klub Krazy
Waiter: OK, cool. That sounds fun. I've never destroyed a robot before. What the song called?
Danny: It's the new sensation sweeping the future. They call it… the Time Warp.
Waiter: This is going to take more than three people to destroy the Merlinator.
Danny: You're right. Opens door Hey, who wants to sing and dance and destroy a robot? Pulls out HOBO Here, this guy does.
Hobo: Uh, cool. Can I has a cheeseburger?
Waiter: I guess. Hands him a bottle of shaving cream So, now shall we practice?
Danny: Sure. OK, all, first you jump to the left, singing a capella And then a step to the right spoken You put your hands on your hips and then tuck your knees in nice and tight singing with at least a small amount of accompaniment But it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane spoken Let's try it again.
Scene 12
Outside of Klub Krazy
The Streets
The Merlinator walks up to Klub Krazy's door.
Merlinator: This is where she hid before. Perhaps she would hide in there again, even though there's only a 37.8888 Percent chance, there's always there's still a chance, even though not a very big one. Looks at door I'm going in. makes a loading gun sound
Klub Krazy
As the door opens, the intro of the song begins. During the 3½ measures of intro, the Merlinator shoots at the audience with a Nerf© gun. Then a shot of Danny's face, with a rock star/pop star/Zac Efron look on his face.
Danny: sing speaking It's astounding, time is fleeting shot of chorus taping their feet Madness takes its toll But listen closely, singing not for very much longer I've got to keep control
I remember doing the TIme Warp Drinking those moments when The blackness would hit me and the void would be calling Let's do the time warp again...
Chorus: singing Let's do the time warp again!
Danny: spoken It's just a jump to the left
Chorus: singing And then a step to the right
Danny: spoken With your hands on your hips singing You bring your knees in tight
Chorus: singing But it's the pelvic thrust
Danny: singing that really drives you insane, Let's do the Time Warp again!
Waiter: singing It's so dreamy, oh fantasy free me So you can't see me, no not at all
Danny: singing In another dimension, with voyeuristic intention Well-secluded, I see all
Waiter: With a bit of a mind flip
Danny+Waiter: You're there in the time slip And nothing can ever be the same
Waiter: You're spaced out on sensation
Danny: Like you're under sedation
Chorus: Let's do the Time Warp again!
Linnea: singing Well I was walking down the street just a-having a think When a snake of a guy gave me an evil wink
Hobo: spoken Wink.
Linnea: singing He shook me up, he took me by surprise He had a pickup truck and the devil's eyes. He stared at me and I felt a change Time meant nothing, never would again
Chorus: Let's do the Time Warp again!
Linnea: spoken It's just a jump to the left
Chorus: singing And then a step to the right
Waiter: spoken With your hands on your hips
Chorus: singing You bring your knees in tight
Chorus + Merlinator: shot on Merlinator as he is singing and dancing But it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane
Chorus: Let's do the Time Warp again! As the music is fading, the Merlinator falls to the ground, and twitches.
Waiter: Good god. You killed him.
Linnea: I thought you liked him. He liked you.
Danny: yelling He didn't like me! He never liked me! In a regular tone of voice Who's side are you on, anyway? He's a Merlinator. He needed to kill. He had to be killed. Looks at the audience Or possibly reprogrammed so in the next film he can come back! Looking back at Linnea The time has come for me to go.
Linnea: Ah. I shall cry.
Danny: But you so wanted me to tame you.
Linnea: Yes. That is so.
Danny: Then this has done you no good at all.
Linnea: It has done me good, because of the wheatfields-
Waiter: OH MY GOD WILL YOU GUYS JUST BE QUIET!!!
Linnea: What has your pajamas in a bunch?
Waiter: You know what you both are quoting?
Linnea: Uh, no. Uhhhhh, the script?
Waiter: No, you are both quoting first "The Rocky Horror Show", which was slightly appropriate, seeing as you both just finished a song from the "Rocky Horror Show", but then you guys started quoting the "Little Prince"? Sooo last year!!
Danny: Well excuse me, princess!
Waiter: Ug! Exits
Danny: I must leave. My purpose is done here.
Linnea: I will miss you every day.
Danny: Really?
Linnea: Probably not, but this is supposed to me some cheesy romance scene, so it seems appropriate.
Danny: Oh, Linnea. At least fake crying I'll miss you too!! Dramatic music plays as an overwhelming amount of light is pouring around Danny as he looks up to the sky, and then a sonic boom sounds and Danny is gone.
Scene 13
Ext. Quick Trip
Linnea bikes up to Quick Trip and pulls up to LITTLE BOY.
Linnea: Can I help you?
Little Boy: My mom has left my daddy ditched her I wonder if I could take your picture? Snaps picture
Linnea: You just are such a funny little boy. Why do you rhyme so much?
LB: Is a rhyme any crime?
Linnea: Here; I'd like a coke with a twist of lime.
LB: I'll find some, it'll take some time.
Linnea: That's OK, I'm not in a hurry.
LB: Then you have no plausible reason to worry.
LB leaves
Linnea: takes out tape recorder Hello, this is your mother. Hmmmmm… how much shall I tell you about your father? I'm guessing if I told you it would skrew up your life, so I won't. I'll tell you he was a good man. He, taught me things about things I never knew. And I will be forever grateful for that. LB enters and Linnea puts tape recorder away.
LB: Here comes your diet coke, now could I have some money for I am broke. Linnea gives him money And now I am a little bit richer, I think it is time to give you your picture. Hands her a picture
Linnea: I've seen this before, but well then I can never be sure.
Flashback:
Danny showing Linnea picture of her, then in present day a fade to the same picture in her hands.
Linnea: deep in thought, singing And even though Danny is gone now, I still feel the same Compared to everything I had experienced Life now seems a game When there was a robot Or a whatever With that gigantic name You would think it was funny Until YOU were running!
Linnea + LB: Let's do the time warp again!
LB: spoken They say a storm is coming from the radio.
Linnea: Spare me boy, for I already know. I'll be back. She bikes off
LB: Jeepers creepers. Can she do a sleeper?
The End
OR IS IT?????
