Act II – Finale
The Trial
Setting – The depths of Pink's Mind.
(The lights brighten to an empty stage besides a judge's podium situated at upstage center. As the music transitions, THE WORMS brings out a pink, naked, and bald rag doll that represents PINK, and place it to the left of the podium against the wall in a seated position, and exit. THE JUDGE, a large, grotesque man representing the British court system walk up behind the podium. The jury, who wear dark clothing and surreal and horrifying masks, walk slowly and quietly down the aisles. JONATHAN is in aa part of the jury,, but instead wears his normal uniform. Finally, THE PROSECUTOR, another grotesque man who symbolizes the British court system, enters. Before he addresses THE JUDGE and the crowd, THE JUDGE strikes his mallet onto the podium, signifying the beginning of PINK's "trial".)
THE PROSECUTOR:
Good morning, Worm, your honor,
The crown will plainly show the prisoner,
Who now stands before you,
Was caught red handed showing feelings!
Showing feeling of an almost human nature.
This will not do!
THE JUDGE: Call the Schoolmaster!
(WALL-EDWARD, a lanky marionette, is suspended in front of the wall to the right of the podium. He is voiced with a high and screeching Irish accent by someone offstage.)
WALL-EDWARD (offstage VO)
I always said he'd come to no good!
In the end, your Honor,
If they'd let me have my way,
I could've flayed him into shape,
But my hands were tied,
The bleeding hearts and artists,
Let him get away with murder,
Let me hammer him today!
(THE JUDGE nods his head in disapproval as WALL-EDWARD is brought back up behind the wall.)
PINK (offstage):
Crazy, toys in the attic,
I am crazy, truly gone fishing.
They must've taken my marbles away!
JURY:
Crazy, toys in the attic,
He is crazy.
THE JUDGE: Call the defendant's wife!
(Enter WALL-GWENOWLYN, a woman with wild red hair, a green outfit, and a scorpion's tail attached to her, who harasses the PINK rag doll.)
WALL-GWENDOLYN:
You little shit you're in it now,
I hope they throw away the key,
You should've talked to me,
More often than you did, but no!
(She picks up the doll and carries it over her shoulder as she walks over to THE JUDGE.)
You had to go your own way,
Have you broken any homes up lately?
(She leans over to THE JUDGE.)
Just five minutes, Worm, your honor,
Him and me alone!
(THE JUDGE doesn't approve, and WALL-GWENDOLLYN throws the doll up against the wall in a rage and exits.)
THE JUDGE: Call the defendant's mother!
(Enter WALL-WINIFRED, a stereotypical-looking English mother that represents PINK's mother.)
WALL-WINIFRED:
Baaaaaaaabe!
Come to momma baby.
Let me hold you in my arms!
(She addresses THE JUDGE and begs at his feet.)
M'lud I never wanted him to,
Get in any trouble,
Why'd he ever have to leave me?
Worm, your honor,
Let me take him home!
(THE JUDGE again disapproves, and points towards the exit stressfully. WALL-WINIFRED exits sadly.)
PINK:
Crazy, over the rainbow,
I am crazy, bars in the window,
There must have been a door there in the wall,
When I came in!
JURY:
Crazy, over the rainbow,
He is crazy.
(THE JUDGE walk out to the front of his podium, picks up and places the PINK doll in front of him, and addresses 'it'. The podium is taken offstage by someone from backstage. As TH JUDGE begins to sing, the jury begins to dance around maniacally in the aisles, besides JONATHAN. The melody from 'Another Brick in the Wall' is played on an electric guitar.)
THE JUDGE (in a monstrous rage):
The evidence before the court is incontrovertible,
There's no need for the jury to retire!
(The jury stops dancing.)
In all my years of judging,
I have never heard before,
Of someone more deserving,
Of the full penalty of law!
The way you made them suffer,
Your exquisite wife and mother,
Fills me with the urge to defecate!
(THE JUDGE bends down as if he were defecating, and stands back up.)
JONATHAN: Go on, Judge, shit on him!
THE JUDGE:
Since!
(He kicks the doll.)
My friend, you have revealed your deepest fear,
I sentence you to be exposed before your peers!
(He picks up the doll.)
TEAR DOWN THE FUCKING WALL!
(The jury then chants in time as THE JUDGE exits with the doll. The jury urge the audience to join in.)
JURY (repeats several times): Tear down the wall! Tear down the wall! Tear down the wall!
(The wall is destroyed by the backstage crew as sounds of explosions and destructions of buildings are heard. PINK is laying against the backstage wall amongst the rubble with his guitar at his side. The jury stay in the aisles and the sounds of destruction transfers to the next and final song.)
