The Warner Rangers show
AnNIMANIAgirl506 and goldengod180 helped me with most of Max and Zack's speaking parts and will possibly link my story to theirs in order for this collaboration to work! Enjoy!
Inside the warner studio, the warner rangers had created their own talk show to extent their talent limits. So as a way to make it extra special, Yakko and I were co-hosting it while talking to the other rangers personally and showing shorts that they had collaborated together while sitting on the big yellow leather sofa inside the colourful studio with 'WB' everywhere….
The other rangers were lining up backstage, waiting for their cue….
"Today's topic is: Humour, gags and the law of toon physics.
Our first guest is Lavender!" I announced with a smile.
"So Lavender, you like game shows?" Yakko asked.
"Yeah" Lavender replied, shyly.
Yakko: good
"What gags do you use?" I asked.
"Anvils, Pianos, Dynamite, Xylophone….." Lavender began.
"Sorry, Lavender but Your screen time is up! Thanks for coming!" I said, enusiasticly.
"Our next Guests are Lovebirds, Zack and Max!" Yakko cried as the Audience aplauded.
"Hi" Max said, nervously.
"It's great to be here, Yakko and Grace" Zack said, happily.
"How's your love life? I totally envy you Zack, You've got a beautiful girl in your life while I'm still trying to convince Hello Nurse to go out with me through Shakespeare!" Yakko said in an envious way.
Max just rolled her eyes.
"You'd probably have a better chance if you knew more Shakespeare than 'To be or not to be'; by the way with Hello Nurse I'm guessing it's not to be" Zack said as the Audeince 'Oooh'ed.
"You haven't seen our new 'Romeo and Juliet' short with me and Hello Nurse" Yakko challendged.
"We'd like to see it first before we show our one in the next episode" Max said.
"We're now going to show our latest short 'Romeo and Juliet' with Hello Nurse as Juliet, me as Romeo and Dot as the Translator" Yakko annouced.
-Cue film-
Romeo and Juliet
"And now the famous Balcony scene from William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet acted out by Yakko and Hello Nurse which will be translated by Dot for the readers who, like Yakko and Hello Nurse have no idea what they're saying" The announcer said.
"O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name. Of if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love; And I'll no longer be a Capulet" Hello Nurse Recited.
"That means: Why are you Romeo? Confess your undying love for me and we'll ride away on the sunset together on a unicorn as individuals" Dot added.
[Aside.] "Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?" Yakko asked.
"Shall we talk more or can I interupt?" Dot inteperated.
Hello Nurse
"'Tis but thy name that is my enemy:
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name.
What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name, which is no part of thee,
Take all myself" Hello nurse cried.
"Please don't be called Montague, call yourself blonde john so we can go out into the sun set.
I am not a Montague yet you're so hansome!" Dot cried.
Y
"I take thee at thy word.
Call me but love, and I'll be new baptis'd;
Henceforth I never will be Romeo." Yakko said, passionatly.
"I promise I'll have a new name: Mel and will never be called Romeo again" Dot added.
"What man art thou that, thus bescreened in night,
So stumblest on my counsel?" Hello NURSE ASKED.
"This means should I cook a counsel and scream in the night(?)" Dot wondered.
"By a name
I know not how to tell thee who I am:
My name, dear saint, is hateful to myself,
Because it is an enemy to thee.
Had I it written, I would tear the word" Yakko said.
"I hate my name and I wish we could be together till death do us part" Dot butted in.
Hello Nurse
"My ears have yet not drunk a hundred words
Of thy tongue's uttering, yet I know the sound.
Art thou not Romeo, and a Montague?" Hello Nurse asked
"I'm drunk inside and I heard something. Are you Romeo as well as a Montague too or not?!" Dot exclaimed.
"Neither, fair saint, if either thee dislike" Yakko sighed.
"I'm a saint or he could be disguised as Justin Beiber!" Dot cried
Hello Nurse
"How cam'st thou hither, tell me, and wherefore?
The orchard walls are high and hard to climb,
And the place death, considering who thou art,
If any of my kinsmen find thee here" Hello Nurse stated.
"If you climb, you'll die and if my family discover you, you'll die. What a coincidence(?)" Dot said with the last line being her own opinion.
Yakko
"With love's light wings did I o'erperch these walls,
For stony limits cannot hold love out,
And what love can do, that dares love attempt:
Therefore thy kinsmen are no stop to me" Yakko said as the stars glittered in the sky.
"Love is stronger than Death itself so I won't get discovered unless One Direction arrives" Dot translated with a pout.
"If they do see thee, they will murder thee" Hello Nurse said, matter-of-factually.
Dot: "If they see you, They'll kill you on the spot!" Dot said as she laughed Manically.
"Alack, there lies more peril in thine eye
Than twenty of their swords. Look thou but sweet
And I am proof against their enmity" Yakko recited, sweetly.
Dot: "Even if they have more than 20 swords, I'll fight for our love" Dot said, sourly as she was becoming bored.
"I would not for the world they saw thee here" Hello Nurse said.
"I wouldn't risk it if they saw you" Dot sighed.
"I have night's cloak to hide me from their eyes,
And, but thou love me, let them find me here;
My life were better ended by their hate
Than death prorogued, wanting of thy love" Yakko seranated.
"Night can hide me, let them come, our families' hate ended my life long ago
I've longed for your wild and passionate love for a very long time" Dot said, simply.
"By whose direction found'st thou out this place?" Hello Nurse asked.
"Which band lend you to this castle?" Dot asked.
"By love, that first did prompt me to enquire.
He lent me counsel, and I lent him eyes.
I am no pilot, yet, wert thou as far
As that vast shore wash'd with the furthest sea,
I should adventure for such merchandise" Yakko said.
" I saw your eyes and it was love at first sight,
The sea agrees and adventure is the prefect merchandise to sell on Ebay" Dot said, chessily.
"Thou knowest the mask of night is on my face,
Else would a maiden blush bepaint my cheek
For that which thou hast heard me speak tonight.
Fain would I dwell on form; fain, fain deny
What I have spoke. But farewell compliment.
Dost thou love me? I know thou wilt say 'Ay',
And I will take thy word. Yet, if thou swear'st,
Thou mayst prove false. At lovers' perjuries,
They say, Jove laughs. O gentle Romeo,
If thou dost love, pronounce it faithfully:
Or if thou thinkest I am too quickly won,
I'll frown, and be perverse, and say thee nay,
So thou wilt woo: but else, not for the world.
In truth, fair Montague, I am too fond;
And therefore thou mayst think my 'haviour light:
But trust me, gentleman, I'll prove more true
Than those that have more cunning to be strange.
I should have been more strange, I must confess,
But that thou overheard'st, ere I was 'ware,
My true-love passion: therefore pardon me;
And not impute this yielding to light love
Which the dark night hath so discovered." Hello Nurse said.
"I've got nothing" Dot said, simply.
"Lady, by yonder blessed moon I vow,
That tips with silver all these fruit-tree tops -" Yakko began.
"Me Lady, I promise from the surface of the moon to tree tops of fruit trees-" Dot trasnlated.
"O, swear not by the moon, the inconstant moon,
That monthly changes in her circled orb,
Lest that thy love prove likewise variable." Hello Nurse said.
"Not on the moon, just confess your love for me in a different way" Dot added.
"What shall I swear by?" Yakko asked.
"What should I swear by?" Dot translated in question.
Hello Nurse
"Do not swear at all.
Or if thou wilt, swear by thy gracious self,
Which is the god of my idolatry,
And I'll believe thee" Hello Nurse said.
"What she said" Dot said, simply.
"If my heart's dear love -" Yakko began.
"If my love is great-" Dot began to translate.
Hello Nurse
"Well, do not swear: although I joy in thee,
I have no joy of this contract to-night:
It is too rash, too unadvised, too sudden;
Too like the lightning, which doth cease to be
Ere one can say 'It lightens.' Sweet, good night!
This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath,
May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet.
Good night, good night! as sweet repose and rest
Come to thy heart as that within my breast!" Hello Nurse Exclaimed
"Don't swear, even though I'm enjoying our night together, I dislike the seeing each other at night, it's too much to bear! No one says 'goodnight' here
By leaving a flower by the balcony symbol our next secret meeting
Good night, dear Romeo and come to me for s-" Dot began but Yakko interupted her for the readers' sake.
"O, wilt thou leave me so unsatisfied?" Yakko asked.
"I might be unsatisfied when I leave" Dot said.
"What satisfaction canst thou have to-night?" Hello Nurse asked as they gazed into each other's eyes.
"This could mean what satisfaction can't you have tonight?" Dot stated.
"The exchange of thy love's faithful vow for mine" Yakko said with courage.
"The vows of confessing true love like a wedding ceremony" Dot added.
"I gave thee mine before thou didst request it:
And yet I would it were to give again" Hello Nurse said.
"I confess before you asked and I would do it again" Dot traslated.
"Wouldst thou withdraw it? for what purpose, love?" Yakko asked.
"Would you ever deny it? For love?" Dot grinned.
"But to be frank, and give it thee again.
And yet I wish but for the thing I have:
My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite" Hello Nurse confessed.
"My duty to my family is like the sea yet I love you more than anything
Now and for all infinity" Dot added.
Wakko who's dressed like a nurse was inside the castle called for Hello Nurse.
"I hear some noise within; dear love, adieu!
Anon, good nurse! Sweet Montague, be true.
Stay but a little, I will come again" Hello Nurse called out to Yakko as she left.
-Exit-
Yakko
"O blessed, blessed night! I am afeard.
Being in night, all this is but a dream,
Too flattering-sweet to be substantial" Yakko called out.
"Could this be a dream as it is night time?" Dot asked.
Hello Nurse came out onto the Balcony again.
"Three words, dear Romeo, and good night indeed.
If that thy bent of love be honourable,
Thy purpose marriage, send me word to-morrow,
By one that I'll procure to come to thee,
Where and what time thou wilt perform the rite;
And all my fortunes at thy foot I'll lay
And follow thee my lord throughout the world" Hello Nurse said.
"Good night Romeo, if your honour love then go and send me a message tomorrow or you'll perish with your family" Dot added
"Madam!"Wakko called from inside.
"Miss" Dot said, simply.
"I come, anon.-But if thou mean'st not well,
I do beseech thee-" Hello Nurse said.
Dot: I have to go, I'm being called and please save yourself
"Madam!" Wakko repeated from inside
"nothing to add" Dot said in a bored tone.
"By and by, I come:-
To cease thy suit, and leave me to my grief:
To-morrow will I send" Hello Nurse said.
Dot: "leave me to greive and tommorow we'll meet again with pie" Dot added with a evil grin.
"So thrive my soul-" Yako began.
"….nothing" Dot concluded.
"A thousand times good night!" Hello Nurse cried.
"(yawn) Saying goodnight again, blah, blah, blah!" Dot said.
Hello Nurse left AGAIN.
Yakko
"A thousand times the worse, to want thy light.
Love goes toward love, as schoolboys from
their books,
But love from love, toward school with heavy looks" Yakko said.
" light is the key to the soul and love goes on more than schoolboys" Dot said like an Oracle.
-Yakko doesn't leave?_
Hello Nurse reappears
"Hist! Romeo, hist! O, for a falconer's voice,
To lure this tassel-gentle back again!
Bondage is hoarse, and may not speak aloud;
Else would I tear the cave where Echo lies,
And make her airy tongue more hoarse than mine,
With repetition of my Romeo's name" Hello Nurse said with glee.
"If you find Shakespearian English boring, then find a another book to read!" Dot cried.
"It is my soul that calls upon my name:
How silver-sweet sound lovers' tongues by night,
Like softest music to attending ears!" Yakko exclaimed.
"One word: Kingdom Hearts" Dot stated.
"Romeo!" Hello Nurse called out.
"I'm not interfering!" Dot groaned.
"My dear?" Yakko asked.
Dot: "I'm not saying anything" Dot said, simply.
"At what o'clock to-morrow
Shall I send to thee?" Hello Nurse asked.
Dot: "what time shall I expect you again?" Dot asked.
"At the hour of nine" Yakko replied.
Dot: At 9 o'clock
"I will not fail: 'tis twenty years till then.
I have forgot why I did call thee back" Hello nurse said.
"By 20 years from now, I will have forgotten why I called you back" Dot stated.
"Let me stand here till thou remember it" Yakko said with a love-struck smile.
"Let me stay here until you decide to remember" Dot said, simply.
"I shall forget, to have thee still stand there,
Remembering how I love thy company" Hello Nurse said.
"I will forget you standing there and me being your companion" Dot said.
Yakko
"And I'll still stay, to have thee still forget,
Forgetting any other home but this" Yakko promised. " I'm not touching that one" Dot stated.
"'Tis almost morning; I would have thee gone:
And yet no further than a wanton's bird;
Who lets it hop a little from her hand,
Like a poor prisoner in his twisted gyves,
And with a silk thread plucks it back again,
So loving-jealous of his liberty" Hello Nurse urged.
"It's almost morning so be gone please,
You're like a bird who hops on someone's hand
Or a prisoner so please keep your freedom and dignity!" Dot cried.
"I would I were thy bird" Yakko said.
"I wish I was a robin" Dot added.
"Sweet, so would I:
Yet I should kill thee with much cherishing.
Good night, good night! parting is such
sweet sorrow,
That I shall say good night till it be morrow" Hello Nurse whispered.
"I might kill you with too much cherish, good night. Farewell until tomorrow.
So don't reappear until then!" Dot added.
Hello Nurse disappears back into the castle for the last time
"Sleep dwell upon thine eyes, peace in thy breast!
Would I were sleep and peace, so sweet to rest!
Hence will I to my ghostly father's cell,
His help to crave, and my dear hap to tell" Yakko stated.
"sleep well and keep peace and I'll escape my father along with your family members as the millionaire genius saves us" Dot said as she and Yakko run off inside Tony Stark's cool car just as the Capulet Mob run outside chasing after them.
-End of skit-
" I don't think Shakespeare ever thought of that" Zack stated.
"Yeah me either" Max agreed
" Do you like game shows?" Yakko asked.
Zack shrugged his shoulders.
"Not really" Max replied.
"Well isn't this a thrilling topic of conversation" Zack stated.
"So how's life in the toon world where no one dies unless the creators want you to or your voice actor does?" I asked
"Well it can be fun but the creators can be really annoying " Max replied.
"I miss the good old days when we made everyone laugh all day" Yakko said while being lost in thought and sighed out loud.
"It's good, nice weather, nice friends and nice living space" Zack said in an upbeat way.
"Yeah that's true too, it's kind of cool seeing all the voice actors and I got to meet Bugs bunny's there the other day…Wow!" Max exclaimed
"Bugs Bunny rules! Down with purple bunnies!" I cried while referencing to the Looney Tunes show.
"Exactly" Max added.
"Nice guy, all the looney tunes are" Zack said, open-mindedly.
"Few of them you have to bring an umbrella to protect yourself from spittle though" Max warned.
"Especially Daffy" Max added.
"I think Spittle is the least annoying thing about Daffy. Yakko can talk for hours and Daffy can talk about himself for days" Zack stated.
"Ok, Ok that's true" Max confessed.
"He's a nice guy, a bit…full of himself, I guess, he's one of the most recognized and famous cartoon characters of all time so it's understandable" Zack said.
"Yeah" Max agreed.
"The villains are nice though, you'd think being a villain for 80 years would take a toll but they're the best people. Taz even taught me how to do his toon spin" Zack bragged in a humorous way.
"Nice" Max grinned.
"I remember Cutie and the beast when Taz appeared in it and spoke!" I said as I revived memories of watching Animaniacs for the first time and smiled.
: "I think Dot told me about that, apparently he and Wakko had an eating contest on set" Zack said with a knowing look.
"Oh man I wish I could've seen that" Max said, excitedly.
"Me too" I added, Enviously.
"But yeah Taz is really cool" Max said while smiling.
"Yeah but apparently they're not allow to do it again, something about costing the studio a small fortune and an apology to a nearby Wendy's" Zack said, sadly.
"Oh man" Max said as she laughed.
Yakko: "Good times, good times. Mr Plotz sure had a fit when that happened…." Yakko said as he sighed contently.
"Yeah I think that's the closest time I've seen Plotz to actually exploding" Zack stated while smiling.
"Agreed" Max said with a smile.
"We're running out of time!" I whispered.
Zack: "Oh, ok well I'd just like to say that this short is the first time I've ever worked with Max and it was a lot of fun and I think it shows and I hope people like it" Zack annouced.
"Yeah same, but it was a lot of fun" Max said, happily.
"That's all we've got time for today but next time, Zack and Max will show their collaborative short with special guest stars, Bugs Bunny and my sibs, Wakko and Dot Warner!" Yakko announced.
"Until Next time…." I began
Me and Yakko "Goodnight Everybody!" Yakko and I added in unison.
