(Cut to a CU of a pile of toys. We tilt up and see the Professor
balancing them telepathically He carefully balances the last piece on top,
then sits back and sighs. Magneto storms in, though, and the
pile collapses.)
Magneto: Professor, I have found a solution to the problem with
Rogue.
Pietro: Yeah! The problem with Rogue!
Professor: Oh, really?
Magneto: (using powers to open a book and make it hover in front of the Professor) Right here. "If the princess has not chosen a husband by the appointed time,
then the headmaster shall choose for her."
Xavier: But Rogue hated all those suitors! (He tries to
stuff a blow pop into Pietro's mouth. Pietro backs
away. The Professor absentmindedly pulls the Blow pop
back.) How could I choose someone she hates?
(Pietro is relieved, but the Professor quickly stuffs a
Blow pop in his mouth.)
Magneto: Not to worry, Charles. There is more. If, in the
event a suitable prince cannot be found, a princess
must then be wed to...hmm...interesting.
Xavier: What? Who?
Magneto: The assistant headmaster! Why, that would be...me!
Xavier: Why, I thought the law says that only a prince can
marry a princess, I'm quite sure.
Magneto: Desperate times call for desperate measures, Charles. (He pulls out the hypnotizer thing and hypnotizes the
Professor with it.)
Xavier: Yes...desperate measures...
Magneto: You will order Rogue to marry me.
Xavier: I...will order...Rogue...to...(the spell
breaks momentarily)...but you're so old!
Magneto: (Holds the staff closer) Rogue will marry
me!
Xavier: Rogue will marry...(the spell is again
broken, this time by the trumpet fanfare of "Prince
Ali"…I mean… "Wolverine".) What? What is that? That music! Ha ha ha.
Erik., you must come and see this!
Allison: Make
way for Wolverine
Say hey! It's Wolverine
Hey! Clear the
way in the old Bazaar
Hey you!
Let us through!
It's an
awesome old star!
Oh Come!
Be the first on your block to meet
his eye!
Make way!
Here he comes!
Ring bells! Bang the
drums!
Are you gonna love this guy!
Wolverine! Fabulous
he!
The Feral Canadian
Genuflect, show some respect
Down on
one knee!
Now, try your best to stay calm
He is absolutely the
bomb
Then come and meet his spectacular coterie
Wolverine!
Mighty
is he!
The Feral Canadian
Strong as ten regular men,
definitely!
He faced the galloping hordes
A hundred bad guys
with swords
Who sent those goons to their lords?
Why,
Wolverine
He's got tons of war stories to
ramble
Personality
He's wild and free
When it comes to
exotic-type mammals
Has he seen a zoo?
I'm telling you, it's a
world-class menagerie
Wolverine! Handsome is he, The Feral
Canadian
That physique! How can I speak
Weak at the knee
Well,
get on out in that square
Adjust your x-suit and prepare
To
gawk and grovel and stare at Wolverine!
There's no question
this Wolvie's alluring
Never ordinary, never boring
Everything
about the man just plain impresses
He's a winner, he's a whiz, a
wonder!
He's about to pull my heart asunder!
And I absolutely
love the way he dresses!
He's fought and beaten up Victor
Creed
(Kicked his ass, Kicked his ass)
And to view the fight he
charges no fee
(He's generous, so generous)
He's got attitude,
he's got Fan girls and Fan boys
(Proud to work for him)
They
bow to his whim love serving him
They're just lousy with loyalty
to Wolverine! Wolverine!
Wolverine!
Amorous he! Wolverine
the Feral Canadian
Heard he loves drinkin' his beer in that bar
down the street
And that, good people, is why he got a cigar and
dropped by
With his buddy Gambit, women galore
With his Harley
Davidson
Maybe a bike or two more
With his wicked hair, his
aura, his stare
He's' the COOLEST can't you see
Make way for
Wolverine!
(More and more fanfare build up until Gambit jumps off storm's back
on Harley and drives down to the Professor, Wolverine right in front of him. Magneto slams the
door shut using his magnetical powers.)
Professor: (Clapping) Splendid, absolutely marvelous.
Gambit: (To Wolverine) Ummm…wasn't that song supposed to be about me? To help me win Rogue's heart? Who was that?
Wolverine: Sorry, she gets out of control sometimes…Allison's the only one I know who can sing… (Talks louder.) Ahem. Hey Chuck, this is Prince…(to Gambit) what should I call you?
Gambit: Remy LeBeau…
Wolverine: Prince Remy. Remy LeBeau. He wants to marry Stripes. (meaning Rogue…if you haven't guessed)
Xavier: Prince Remy LeBeau! Of course. I'm delighted to
meet you. (He rolls over and shakes Gambit's hand.)
This is my assistant headmaster, Erik Lensherr. He's delighted
too.
Magneto: (Extremely dryly) Ecstatic. I'm afraid, Prince
LeBooboo--
Gambit: --LeBeau!
Magneto: Whatever. You cannot just parade in here uninvited
and expect to--
Xavier: ...by Cerebro, this is quite a remarkable device.
(He revs the handles of Harley and Harley rams his wheelchair.) I don't suppose I might...
Gambit: Why certainly, Professor. Allow me. #How the hell is he supposed to ride it if he's crippled?#
(He helps the Professor up onto the Harley, and he plops down.
Magneto stops the Harley with his powers.)
Magneto: Charles, I must advise against this--
Xavier: --Oh, button up, Magneto. Learn to have a little fun.
(He makes Magneto let go with his powers, then drives around on Harley. Pietro, who
was leaning on Harley, falls down. Xavier and
Harley drive in a circle, then go really fast toward Storm,
Scaring her. The drive continues in the
background, while Magneto and Gambit talk in the foreground.)
Magneto: Just where did you say you were from?
Gambit: Oh, much farther than you've traveled, I'm sure.
(He smiles. Magneto does not.)
Magneto: Try me. (Pietro leans on Xavier's desk.)
Xavier: Look out, Petey!
(They all jump away in time as the Harley whizzes past them. Harley returns and they chases Pietro around the room.)
Pietro: Hey, watch it. Watch it with the dumb bike!
Wolverine: …Bike…dumb? …grr…
(The Harley zooms near Pietro, who sighs, wipes his brow, and
crashes into a pillar. He crashes to the floor, and his head
is circled by miniature Xaviers on Harleys, saying "Have a Blow Pop,
have a Blow Pop. The real Xavier begins his final approach.)
Xavier: Out of the way, I'm coming in to park. Magneto,
watch this! (He parks.)
Magneto: Spectacular, Charles.
Xavier: Ooh, lovely. Yes, I do seem to have a knack for
it. (Harley rolls over to Storm dizzily, then
collapses. Storm catches it.) This is a very
impressive young man. And a prince as well. (Whispers
to Magneto) If we're lucky, you won't have to marry
Rogue after all.
Magneto: I don't trust him, Charles.
Xavier: Nonsense. One thing I pride myself on Magneto, I'm
an excellent judge of character.
Pietro: Oh, excellent judge, yeah, sure...not!
(Rogue walks in quietly.)
Xavier: Rogue will like this one!
Gambit: And I'm pretty sure I'll like Princess Rogue!
Magneto: Professor, no. I must intercede on Rogue's
behalf. (Rogue hears this and gets mad.) This
boy is no different than the others. What makes
him think he is worthy of the princess?
Gambit: Professor, I am Prince Remy LeBeau! (He flicks Magneto's helmet, which falls off. (almost ruining his perfect cape.)) Just let her meet me. I will win
Rogue!
Rogue: How dare you! (They all look at her surprised.)
All of you, standing around deciding my future? I
am not a prize to be won! (She storms out.)
Xavier: Oh, dear. Don't worry, Prince Remy. Just give
Rogue time to cool down. (They exit.)
Magneto: I think it's time to say good bye to Prince
LeBooboo.
