Pinky and the Brain: the Movie

Introduction: This film is based on the series of "Pinky and the Brain" and so may be confusing for those who are not very familiar with the series/most of the series. I hope you enjoy this and please comment, I need constructive criticism!

For those who read this before the Big Edit, I used to have a Cast here, but I have now removed it. Firstly, it was not correct and it was merely my first idea for the cast. Secondly, if I have a new version here then it might give away spoilers for future readers.

Part 1

(A black screen with white writing appears.)

1993.

A young mouse and a young hamster have recently been involved in

an experiment called PROJECT B.R.A.I.N.

(Another black screen with white text comes up.)

The expected results of this experiment: Both test subjects would

become more intelligent and their brain capacities would enlargen.

(A third dark screen with white writing appears.)

The actual results of this experiment: Both test subjects showed no

difference in IQ or brain capacity after they had gone through a gene

splicer designed for the experiment. $3 million were wasted, the

experiment did not work.

(One last black screen with white text comes up.)

Or did it?

(Film opens in Acme Labs. Camera tilts up to cage and we see it is open. Camera moves to left and we see a young hamster and a young albino mouse talking.)

Brain: (Smiling) It's wonderful being intelligent. Why, the world is at our paw-tips! We can do anything!

Snowball: Indeed. Indeed, we can do anything. Dr Mordough has provided us with the best gift in the world, our brains. (Clasps Brain by the shoulders, a sly glint in his eye.) Why, imagine Brain, we could even...

Brain: We could even what Snowball?

Snowball: We could even… Take over the world…

(Brain looks quizzically at his friend, Snowball steps back, rubbing his hands with excitement at his new ambitious plan.)

Brain: Take over the world? Hmmm… I'd never thought about doing that before, Snowball.

Snowball: But think, Brain. Imagine if we ruled the world… We'd be RICH. We'd be flexanimous. We'd be in control of every mouse, every hamster, every human being. If we decided we didn't like a law, we could change it at the snap of a paw. If we wanted a thousand private jets, or all the cheese in the world, we'd get them at virtually a moment's notice. Everyone would BOW before us. Images of us would be everywhere, people would come and kiss our feet and want to do everything for us. How would you like that, Brain?

(Pause. A sneaky, characteristic smile appears on Brain's face)

Brain: Yes! Wait, no, there are many complications in this plan. Snowball, are you pondering what I'm pondering?

Snowball: Yes. (He grimaces) It's all about the how. The idea is simple, but the execution… Yes, there lies the difficulty, there lies the genius.

Brain: I couldn't agree more. But let us not dwell on this, my friend! Let us start making plans! Do you have any ideas?

(They pause, pondering.)

Snowball: Yes! (He looks slyly out of a window in the lab to the night sky.)

Brain: (excitedly) What is it?

Snowball: It's a full moon tomorrow night and you know what humans are like about the full moon. So superstitious, so scary. (Wiggles fingers) Woooooo!

(Brain laughs playfully and jumps back, eagerly continuing to listen.)

Snowball: We will spread a message that says… CERN have discovered that UFOs will appear when the full moon is out, throughout the world. The appealing lie will mean every human will be too distracted, looking at the sky, to notice a mouse and a hamster seizing control of the planet!

Brain: My, your plan seems full-proof. Let me write some equations and do some planning to see how we will carry it out. We'll have less than twenty-four hours until our country experiences the glory of the full moon, so we have to be very quick. (Whips up a sheet of blue paper and grabs a pen.) How will we send the message?

Snowball: Through verbal means, Brain, such as the word of mouth itself and the use of the telephone. We cannot get to every part of the world to spread the message, so we will send calls to random people in other nations who will then spread on the message themselves. Once a piece of news is heard by a human being, it spreads like wildfire.

Brain: But surely not everyone will be able to receive the message within 24 hours? How could gossip travel around that fast? It doesn't match my equations. (Shows Snowball a few diagrams and maths equations, Snowball studies these with a worried expression on his face.) And also, what about those who don't have telephones and don't live in the United States of America? I'm willing to try, Snowball, but don't feel too downhearted if we have to try this again.

Snowball: Ah indeed, but how many things in life do people have to retry to get right? Just about EVERYTHING! We can TRY and TRY again if this does not work out the first time. And there always has to be a first time, so we might as well as not start here.

(Brain, who has had his charismatic serious expression on his face for the last few speeches, suddenly smiles again.)

Brain: I agree. And who knows, maybe before the full moon is down tomorrow, we will have begun our positions as Overlords on our wonderful Earth. (Smiles and looks away.)

Snowball: (under his breath and looking away as well) Hmm hmm, wonderful you say, Brain? Yes… It will be wonderful once I have assumed total control…

(Camera fades and when it next focuses we see that it is daytime. Snowball and Brain, who are looking a bit more tired and irritable, have several pages of notes in front of them.)

Snowball: Well, that's fifty people in Australia who I've called and fifty people in India who I've called. Let's say that every one of those people tells three other people about the UFO sightings. Then we've made sure 300 people across the world know about our plans.

(Brain's ears droop and he sighs and grimaces.)

Brain: Only 300? And in 3 hours? Let's hope that the word of mouth proves more useful. (Brain stands up and slings over a small bag on his shoulder, full of leaflets he has been writing about the UFO landings) Are you ready to leave, Snowball?

Snowball: (Smiling slightly) Yes, I'm ready. Let's go.

(We see Brain and Snowball walking out of Acme Labs, the music becomes dramatic and the camera fades to black.)
