Chapter 9 The Real Marti Mcfly…Boots?

Riot: Welcome back to "The Left Shoe Show." After long delays of finals and doing last minute projects, The Left Shoe Show is back with our special guest, Boots. (audience applause) And here are your hosts Prankster, Marbles and Ramble. (Audience Applause)

Marbles: O.o…..thank you Riot.

Prankster: Welcome back, I'm really excited about our low-budget show we've put on, and with everyone's boot loving newsie, Boots, it should be an interesting show and….(looks around) Marbles? Where's Ramble?

Marbles: And the guys? (looks around.)

Prankster & Marbles: (at the same time) BOOKIE!!!!!!!

(Bookie runs out)

Prankster: Where's Ramble?

Marbles: Yeah, she needs to sing the theme song or else her head will explode or something.

Bookie: Umm….she's in the back with the boys, they're doing something for the theme. A lot of the crew are involved too.

Prankster: Like who?

Bookie: oh just a few, Rhapsody, Falco, Aura, Splash, Monday, Lisa, Butterfly, (coughs) Me ummm…..

Marbles: maybe this will be easier, who is NOT involved?

Bookie: Well, after careful calculations and doing many head counts….just you two.

Prankster: (pounds head on desk) What are you doing?

Bookie: Oh the boys and us are doing a short part of "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen.

Marbles: O.o Like in Wayne's World?

Bookie: Exactly, well gotta run. (runs out)

Prankster: Well this is unexpected…party on Wayne.

Marbles: Party on Garth.

(Band starts playing, Curtain opens, all the boys are tied in their chairs on one side of the stage, the girls on the other.)

Spot: I see a little silhouetto of a man

Everyone: Scaramouch, scaramouch will you do the fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning - very very frightening me
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo Figaro - magnifico

Spot: But I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me

Boys: He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

Spot: Easy come easy go - will you let me go

Girls: Bismillah! No - we will not let you go

Boys: let him go

Girls: Bismillah! We will not let you go

Boys: let him go

Girls: Bismillah! We will not let you go

Boys: let me go

Girls: Will not let you go

Boys: let me go

Monday: never

Girls: Never let you go

Boys: let me go
Never let me go - ooo

Girls: No, no, no, no, no, no, no –

Boyd: Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go

Spot: Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me

Boys: for me
for me

(Let the head banging begin)

Spot: So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to—(Prankster interrupts)

Prankster: (record skid) OK YOU'RE DONE!


(Girls and Newsies groan)

Prankster: What do you think I'm paying you for?

Cards: (getting back to her camera) We're getting paid?

Prankster: Well…no…it was just an expression…ummm WHERE'S BOOTS?

Frecks: (comes out) We got him. (Hotshot, and Dreamy roll a tied up Boots on stage audience applause)

Ramble: Thank you girls, Butterfly (Jack cringes) has some food for you.

(newsie nappers leave)

Boots: umm hi guys, Race, why are you wearing parachute pants? That's so 1980's.

Prankster: O.o (suspicious) How do you know?

Boots: One of the girls back stage was commenting on his pants.

Race: (grins) So you girl talk 'bout me?

Boots: I wouldn't flatter yourself, Glitter said something 'bout trying some cool colors on ya, she's sayin' that your defiantly a winter…what ever that means, do you know what that means Race?

Race: Umm….PRANKSTAH! Don't you have questions for Boots here?

Prankster: we can wait 'til you're done squirming. Hehehe

Marbles: READ THE QUESTIONS

Prankster: alright, alright chill. Ok Boots, first question oddly enough from Glitter, "Has anyone ever told you that by the time you're around 22, your alter ego will play a certain substitute teacher on the Disney show, "Lizzie McGuire"?"

Boots: No….but I'll be on T.V.? Cool.

Ramble: Yeah it will be…hey! How do you know what a T.V. is?

Boots: I was watching it with Specs in the green room. It's shark week!

Marbles: It's a tape of shark week.

Prankster: Next question, from Glitter too, "Is that a digital watch you have on when you're pumping it up for Jack and Les at Pulitzer's door? Is it? Hmmmmmm Bootsy boy?!"

Boots: I choose to take the 5th.

Marbles: How do you know what the 5th is?

Prankster: Ohh, an educated newsie, this is a first. (everyone stares at Spot, who's staring at his reflection)

Spot: HEY! (goes back to staring)

Prankster: ok, these next set of questions are from Cards, and unless I say anything different, it's Cards, first question, "How the Fecking Frell do you spend a month one night in Brooklyn?"

Boots: (breaks down) TIME TRAVEL!!!

Marbles: What?

Boots: You heard me, time travel. I'm the real Marti Mcfly.

Prankster: Like in 'Back to the Future'?

Boots: yeah, that's why I have the watch, and I spent a month in Brooklyn in one night.

Ramble: cool.

Prankster: wow! Alright next question, "Do you find it the least strange that Kid Blink went to Harlem... Shouldn't someone else (Like someone not white) have gone?"

Boots: Nah! That's where Blink does most of his deals, everyone knows him.

Prankster: "Who is Mud?"

Boots: The Professor.

Prankster: you mean the guy Christopher Lloyd played?

Boots: Yep.

Prankster: "Why can't he stand Blood?"

Boots: that's the way he is.

Prankster: "Why do you sing about him?"

Boots: 'Cause he's off in Hollywood makin' money on our story, and I'm stuck in 1899.

Prankster: "Why do you sleep with one boot?"

Boots: How do you think I got the name Boots?

Prankster: "If you like Boots so much, why not black Boots?"

Boots: It ain't like I got much of a choice.

Ramble: Prankster, you're done, I wanna read, (grabs cards away from Prankster) Ok Boots, still from Cards, "Did you know you have a very small fanbase?"

Boots: I have fans?

Spot: well not as much as me, but ya gotta admit, you're pretty likeable.

Marbles: Galaxy!

(Galaxy runs out)

Marbles: Flick Spots ears!

Galaxy: OK (flick flick flick)

Spot: grrrrr.

Boots: O.O isn't that illegal?

Prankster: No, we have fan approval.

Boots: oh

Ramble: next question, "Who is the leader now?"

Boots: (groans) David. (all newsies groan)

Jack: ya gotta let me back Prankstah!

Prankster: No!

Ramble: ignore them, "How have you explained the lack of bodies?"

Boots: we haven't, really a lot of 'em are sitting in a corner scared shitless, 'cept Blink and Jake. Jake doesn't talk much anymore, and Blink keeps lookin' at us like he knows who's next.

Ramble: But Jake's a mute.

All newsies: HE'S A MUTE?

Jack: well, that explains a lot.

(Prankster pounds head on desk)

Ramble: "Why did you give Spot rocks when he might just fling them back at you?"

Spot: (coughs) they were marbles.

Marbles: (mimics cough) doesn't matter.

Boots: Spot wouldn't shot my gift back at me…(sniff) would he?

(everyone looks at Spot)

Spot: what? NO! This is Boots' interview, leave me alone.

(Galaxy's still flicking his ears)

Ramble: "Are you sick of the questions yet?"

Boots: yes

Ramble: "Have you ever stolen a hat?"

Boots: No.

Ramble: "Do you like Dark Chocolate?"

Boots: umm…yes?

Ramble: "Do you thing something is going on between Specs and Dutchy?"

Boots: they're in love…they jist don't know it yet.

Monday: ('The Left Shoe Show' Mascot runs in) Ha! I won the poll, pay up all of you.

(Cast & Crew groan as they dig through their pockets)

Ramble: Ignore them, "Do you think there is a use for Algebra in real life?"

Boots: Only if you're buildin' a time machine, ouddawise….no.

Prankster: I KNEW IT!

Marbles: Yeah and everyone else on this god forsaken planet.

Prankster: Shut-up, It's your turn to read.

Marbles: (melodramatic) whoopie, forgive me for not doing back-flips.

Ramble: You can do back flips?

Spot: ok, sweetheart, she was bein' sarcastic.

Ramble: SWEETHEART!

Prankster: Oh boy you've done it.

Ramble: GLITTER! WE GOT ANOTHER MAKE-OVER!

(Ramble pushes Spot out, Spot looks like he's about to die)

Marbles: Anyway, (picks up cards) Ok this question is from, Aki, she wants to know, "Where did you get those marbles for Spot? Did you steal them?"

Boots: I didn't steal them…I borrowed them.

Prankster: yep! Always borrow.

Marbles: Ok Hotshot wants to know, "Why are you scared of Spot?"

Boots: Because he's mean. He's got the personality of overcooked bacon.

Prankster: wow! That's a Ramble analogy if I ever heard one.

Ramble: (smiles) yep…bacon tee-hehehe

Marbles: Hotshot also wants to know, "How old are you?"

Boots: 14

Ramble: I wouldn't lie.

Boots: fine 13.

Ramble: hey! No lie detector this time.

Marbles: what do ya know? Moving on, Rhapsody asks "Why does Kloppy seem so eager to wake you up? Do you two have something going on?"

Boots: He likes to see me jump, the stupid bas-

Ramble: (Gasp)

Boots: Bass fish.

Ramble: (Gasp)

Boots: Are you ok?

Ramble: oh yeah. (smiles)

Everyone: O.o (moves their chairs away from Ramble)

Prankster: Wait! Ramble! Wheren't you with Spot?

Ramble: Alright, I'll go back.

(Spot screams from backstage)

Ramble: I guess Spot discovered what mascara is. (leaves)

Marbles: Ok this one's from Butterfly, (Jack jumps) O.o yeah, she wants to know, "Do you find it fun trading marbles with Spot?"

Boots: not really, it's just business. Peace-offering.

Prankster: I'll read, (takes cards) alright, this is from, Dragonfly (FRAGONDLY!!!) she wants to know, "why are your pants so short?"

Boots: oh, well when I came to 1899, I needed pants and well, this is all I got.

Prankster: Aura wants to know, "Did you know that Jack is afraid of butterflys?"

Boots: No I did not, I guess it's a good thing he doesn't know 'bout Kloppy's butterfly collection.

Jack: WHAT?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!

Boots: kidding!

Prankster: I love this kid, can we keep him?

Marbles: no.

Prankster: Please?

Marbles: No!

Prankster: alright, Aura also wants to know, "Do you like bunny rabbits? If so... what color?"

Boots: Umm…white

Prankster: last question from Aura, "Why do you yell off the Brooklyn Bridge?"

Boots: I'm a teen-aged boy, does anythin' I do make sense.

Marbles: Point.

Prankster yep, of this question's from The Omniscient Bookseller, she asks, "What's that thing you do with your hat when the girl walks by outside of the DC?"

Boots: I take it off my head?

Prankster: "Why did you become a newsie?"

Boots: Well, I needed a job, an' lucky for me, Jacky-boy gave me a job.

(Ramble enters and sits back down)

Marbles: Where's Spot?

Ramble: He'll be joining us shortly, my turn to read. (grabs questions) ok Dreamy wants to know, "Do you like Brooklyn?"

Boots: Not really.

(Spot is rolled out, pouting about his makeover)

Spot: When I get free each and everyone of you girls are gunna be dead.

Riot: Well that's all the time for The Left Shoe Show.

Marbles: But we got a ton of more questions.

Riot: Sorry there's a ten page limit.

Ramble: 10-page limit?

Prankster: I don't remember that! (takes out 'Talk Show writing for dummies') Hey what do you know, 10-page limit, even had it underlined. Sorry for all who didn't get your questions asked.

Marbles: Somehow I think they'll live.

Riot: (announces) join us next time when Crutchy will be our guest so send you questions by clicking the review button.

Prankster: Thank you Riot.

Ramble: I ate a watermelon, and all the seeds fell out, and when I went to pick them up they all began to shout.

Ramble & Boys: You (you'se) ate my (me) momma!

Boots: Wow! That's the best song.

Ramble: Isn't it.

(Prankster slams head against desk)
