| KING FUZZY TRILOGY PART THREE: THE SWORD OF QUEEN SASHA | |
| (Anastasia's hide-out. Anastasia, the Easter Bunny, Pommel, Pummel, Smoky, and the blobby-thing. Anastasia is kneeling before the blob.) | |
| ANASTASIA: | How may I serve you, oh Mighty One? |
| BLOB: | My form must be restored. |
| ANASTASIA: | How can this he done? |
| BLOB: | Bring me the corpse that you found floating in space. |
| ANASTASIA: | It will be done. Smoky! |
| (Smoky exits.) | |
| ANASTASIA: | Tell me, master, to whom did the corpse belong? |
| BLOB: | An innocent freedom fighter, enslaved and murdered by the rabbit Hoppy Lashes. |
| (Smoky returns, carrying the corpse, which is in a body-bag and unrecognisable. Until Anastasia opens the bag and pulls out the dead body of Yasta.) | |
| BLOB: | Ah! At last! The warrior Yasta! Place her beside me! |
| ANASTASIA: | What manner of creature is she, oh Mighty One? |
| BLOB: | That is no concern of yours. All you need know is that I have waited many months for this moment, Upon physical contact with this woman, Yasta, not only will my true form he restored, but also Yasta shall be resurrected. |
| ANASTASIA: | How can she return to life after being dead for so long? |
| BLOB: | Magic. |
| (The Blob touches Yasta, who slowly opens her eyes.) | |
| YASTA: | Where am I? Who are you people? What is this filthy slimy thing that paws me? |
| BLOB: | Success! You are functioning once more, my love! |
| (The Blob begins to grow, and change its shape, until it has become Rufus.) | |
| YASTA: | Rufus! We're alive! |
| RUFUS: | Yes. The BFD's bomb killed us both, but I was sent back here to the land of the living by one of the Bunny Gods. He told me that I would remain in the form of a shapeless blob until I was reunited with you, and he gave me the ability to rouse you from your deathly slumber. |
| YASTA: | A Bunny God did this for you? What did it ask in exchange? |
| RUFUS: | That, upon restoring you to life, we would both become his servants for the rest of time. |
| YASTA: | And you agreed? |
| RUFUS: | It's better than being dead. |
| ANASTASIA: | Tell me, 'Oh Mighty One' ... exactly which Bunny God granted you this favour? |
| RUFUS: | He did not reveal his name to me. All I know is that he is called the God of Botherance. |
| ANASTASIA: | Great. Smoky! Roberto! Kill them both! They're spies sent by Rabbo! |
| RUFUS: | Rabbo? Chris Rabbo? Next time we meet, I shall destroy Chris Rabbo. |
| EASTER BUNNY: | Somehow I doubt that. You obviously haven't heard that Chris Rabbo is the God of Botherance. |
| (The Easter Bunny aims his blaster at Rufus, and fires, but Rufus's malleable body easily dodges. Smoky punches Yasta, who morphs her body into an exact duplicate of the giant killer bunny's. Smoky and the Smoky-Yasta fight, while Rufus continues to evade the Easter Bunny's laser blasts.) | |
| ANASTASIA: | Bah! Here I was, running around pandering to the whims of this stupid blob of crap, who claimed to be able to solve all of my problems with Fuzzy Bunny and his crew, only to discover that the useless sack of slime was working for Chris Rabbo the whole time! Pommel! Contain this "Rufus" creature. Pummel! Aid Smoky is his fight against the woman-thing. |
| (Pommel produces a small plastic lunchbox Sneaking up behind the preoccupied Rufus, Pommel slams him on the head and stuffs Rufus into the box closing it quickly and locking it.) | |
| EASTER BUNNY: | Thank you, you oriental midget fool. That guy was beginning to get on my nerves. |
| (Pummel leaps onto Yasta's head and starts to wind toilet paper around her face until she can neither see nor breathe. Yasta collapses, unconscious, and her body returns to its normal size and form.) | |
| ANASTASIA: | Good. |
| (Pommel and Pummel shove Yasta into a small glass fishbowl, which they put in a transparent plastic bag. They use a stapler to ensure that the bag is escape-proof and throw both the lunch box and the fishbowl bag into an empty corner.) | |
| POMMEL: | That'll teach them to mess with the Anastasians. |
| (In the centre of one of the large dots on the Easter Bunny's bow tie, we can see Chris's face, smiling and watching the Anastasians. Cut to Sasha's throne-room. Sasha, Goatee, Fuzzy, Abbie, Bunniquette, Chris. Chris is staring into space, and doesn't seem to notice when Bunniquette walks over to him and says:) | |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | What's up? |
| (She gives him a bit of a kick.) | |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | Wake up, dopey! What's going on inside that useless head of yours? |
| (Chris shakes his head and says:) | |
| RABBO: | Oh. Hello. Sorry, were you talking to me? I was ... concentrating on something. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | Like what? |
| RABBO: | My two buddies have arrived. But the Anastasians have captured them both. |
| FUZZY: | What two buddies? Who do you mean? |
| RABBO: | I arranged to have two good soldiers sent to us to aid us in our war against Anastasia. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | Two good soldiers? |
| RABBO: | Um...yes. But they don't like me very much, and if they escape from Anastasia, they might try to kill me. And you. And Hoppy. And Laff. And Westminster. And... well, all of us really. |
| ABBIE: | Who are these two soldiers? |
| RABBO: | Rufus and Yasta. |
| FUZZY: | What?! |
| SASHA: | You're mad! |
| ABBIE | They're dead! Hoppy blew their heads up with a very nasty bomb. The explosion that killed Rufus and Yasta levelled an entire continent! There's no way they could have survived! |
| RABBO: | They... didn't. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | You idiot! You idiot dickhead fool! Our two worst enemies, and you brought them back from the dead? Justwhat we need! Not only the Anastasians, but those maniac SFs as well! Great job, deity-face. |
| RABBO: | I just-- |
| FUZZY: | Is Bunniquette right? Did you un-kill them? After the things they did to us? |
| ABBIE: | But that bomb - they must have been blown into tiny little pieces! We saw the whole of Ubunnia explode! |
| RABBO: | The whole of the surface of Ubunnia. As I discovered upon my return, most ofthe Nunklon base was actually situated in a number of vast subterranean caverns beneath the continent. It was in these caverns that I stumbled across the teleporter module that sent me to Grondoglicon and allowed the Anastasians to escape. |
| ABBIE: | Well, that doesn't explain why on Nerpalon 12 you would reanimate two dead murderers who tried to kill us on numerous occasions. |
| RABBO: | We need help against the Anastasians. Rufus and Yasta are fully-trained professional -- |
| SASHA: | Killers. |
| RABBO: | Fighters, I was going to say. They'll he an invaluable asset. |
| SASHA: | They'll try to kill us! |
| RABBO | No, no, no, no, no, no, no! They're my vassals now. They are physically unable to disobey me. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | You better hope so, pal. But for now - you just said that Anastasia's caught them. Good start. |
| RABBO: | So we rescue them. Easy. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | Bloody gods. Think they're so damn clever. |
| RABBO: | Well, golly, we are! |
| (Cut to the Palace Gardens. Hoppy and Laff aretaking a walk, hand in hand.) | |
| LAFF: | Some of these flowers are lovely, don't you think? |
| HOPPY: | It's not working, Laff. |
| LAFF: | Pardon? |
| HOPPY: | Us. It just hasn't been the same since Lucky brought you back. |
| LAFF: | You're not saying we should -- |
| HOPPY: | Laff, you know that I love you, but... it's not easy having a relationship witha guy who's been dead for several months. Even when he's not dead any more. |
| LAFF: | I don't understand what the problem is. I love you, you love me, neither of us is currently deceased... let's just get on with being desperately in love. |
| HOPPY: | Typical male Dropoff... you've got no idea. You're so insensitive. |
| LAFF: | Insen-- me, insensitive? I'm not the one who ran off with a brainless dickhead and got pregnant to celebrate my boyfriend's death! |
| HOPPY: | You don't have a boyfriend! |
| LAFF: | Don't change the subject! You call me insensitive? At least I'm not stupid! |
| HOPPY: | B-- Stupid?! Did you just call me stupid? |
| LAFF: | You had sex with Mal Bunny!! |
| HOPPY: | That's low! You know I had no choice! It's not as though I loved him or anything! |
| LAFF: | Oh, and that makes it better? Maybe you're right. Maybe we should break up. Maybe you're just a heartless whore! |
| HOPPY: | It'll take more than alliteration to get round me, buddy! How dare you say such things? I've been there for you since the day we met, and what do I get in return? Not only do you die on me, but as soon as you're back you call me a whore! |
| LAFF: | I give up! There's just no talking to you when you're in this sort of mood! |
| HOPPY: | Well exkee-yooz me, Mister Rational! I suppose you think it's easy having a conversation with you? |
| LAFF: | I don't need this crap from you, Lashes. As soon as you're ready to apologise, I'll be in my room. |
| (Laff storms back into the Palace. Hoppy glares after him and then yells:) | |
| HOPPY: | Apologise? Me? You must be joking! You're the one who needs to apologise! Ooh, that bunny! |
| (Cut to Rabbitskovic's office. Rabbitskovic, Muncher, Skunky.) | |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | We can't allow this to continue. Those South East Asians -- |
| MUNCHER & SKUNKY: | Anastasians. |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | That's what I said. These Anastasians cannot be permitted to exist in the Nerpalon System. |
| MUNCHER: | And what do you propose we do? We've searched the whole capital, and we can't find their new secret headquarters anywhere. |
| SKUNKY: | Anastasia Sarossy-Mammalworth is a cunning woman, and Roberto Jerusalem Easter Bunny-Jones - the "Easter Bunny" - is one of the galaxy's most insidiously sly criminal masterminds. If they don't want us to find them, I don't fancy our chances. |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | We're overlooking our most potent assets. The King and Queen have got two Gods in their service. Even the Assignations -- |
| MUNCHER & SKUNKY: | Anastasians. |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | Yeah, yeah. Even the Anastasians can't beat Gods. |
| MUNCHER: | We have to be careful using the Bunny Gods against Anastasia - remember, Anastasia is an evil bodysnatching alien. If she is able to enter the body of one of the Gods, the whole universe will be at her mercy. |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | It's a chance we'll have to take. Anastasia and her cronies must be neutralised immediately. |
| MUNCHER: | If you think so, sir. Skunky and I will go and speak to Rabbo. |
| (Anastasia's hideout. Anastasia, Easter Bunny, the Stab-Stabs, and Smoky. The lunchbox and the fishbowl are still lying in the corner.) | |
| EASTER BUNNY: | There's little time. We have to seize control of the planet as soon as possible. Then we kill everyone in the palace, so no-one is left to blab about the fact that the so-called "king" is actually a Nunklon body-thief. The entire universe will bow to you, Duchess. |
| (Yasta, still in the fishbowl, has regained consciousness and says:) | |
| YASTA: | Excuse me? Ding, ding! Shop! May I have some service here? |
| ANASTASIA: | What is it, hag? You're supposed to be unconscious. |
| YASTA: | I gather that you people are not fond of Fuzzy Bunny and the UBF? |
| ANASTASIA: | Correct. What's it to you? You're on their side. |
| YASTA: | We are not! Rufus was tricked into making an agreement with Rabbo, but we'd sooner die than serve that brainless dolt! |
| ANASTASIA: | Yes, well, even if that is the case, there's no getting out of a deal made with a God. |
| YASTA: | Oh, but there is. |
| ANASTASIA: | Excuse me? |
| YASTA: | If you'll just free me, I can de-Godify both Rabbo and Lucky and simultaneously rob the chainsaw Tessa of her magical abilities. |
| EASTER BUNNY: | What are you talking about? |
| YASTA: | I'm something of an ... inventor. I have perfected a small device which I like tocall a 'Thaumic Containment Field Generator'. It creates an area within which no form of supernatural or occult energy is able to function. |
| ANASTASIA: | And you expect us to believe this? |
| YASTA: | It's worked perfectly on Lucky and Teddy Uulamets. If you turn me loose and allow me to set up my equipment, I can instantly remove the threat from the two Bunny Gods and free Rufus and myself from Rabbo's service. |
| EASTER BUNNY: | Don't trust her, Duchess. It's obviously a trap. |
| ANASTASIA: | The idea has merit... |
| (Cut to the King and Queen's bedroom. A large bed and a small cradle. Fuzzy is standing by the window.) | |
| FUZZY: | Sigh... I do love Sasha and Goatee, but life as King is not my style. I want thrills and adventure. Swashbuckling and Buckswashling. And I think I know how to make my life more interesting... |
| (The throne-room. Bunniquette, Rabbo, Pirica, Gumman, Tessa, Lennie.) | |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | I wonder where Hop is? She and Laff have been gone for-- |
| RABBO: | Wuh-oh! |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | What? |
| RABBO: | Oh, no! This is what comes of being careless! I should have paid attention to whatthey were doing! |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | What are you crapping on about? |
| (Lucky appears about three feet from the ground and falls to the floor roughly. Suddenly Lucky, Rabbo and Tessa turn entirely blue.) | |
| LUCKY: | Oh, great. This doth be just fucking great. Congratulations, mine brother. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | Why have you guys gone Smurf? |
| TESSA: | Jeepers! It's one of Yasta's TCFGs! Out magic is useless! |
| LUCKY: | Verily, even a God such as mineself is now vulnerable to the attacks of our foes. |
| GUMMAN: | I'm getting sick of that Yasta kid using these Four-Micks Derangement Kneel Genderators to scupper our Gods and sorcerers. |
| TESSA: | Sorceresses. |
| GUMMAN: | Fine. Right. Good. But it's still a pain in the neck. |
| RABBO: | It means that Rufus and Yasta have formed an alliance with the Anastasians. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | But you said that the two SFs were incapable of-- |
| RABBO: | --disobeying me. Yes. But I haven't actually given them any orders yet, so they can act against me without incurring the Disobedience Penalty. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | So give them some orders now! |
| RABBO: | No can do. The TCFG has cancelled my Godliness. I'm as helpless as you. |
| (Sasha enters, carrying Goatee. Sasha has also turned blue.) | |
| GOATEE: | Why mummy-bunny blue? Why funny Rabbo bunny and chainsaw and Mister Thunder Bunny blue, mummy? |
| SASHA: | I... don't know, Disembowelled Goat. Christopher, what is going on? |
| RABBO: | Yasta's buggered up our magic again, Sashmeister. |
| SASHA: | This means that Rufus and Yasta are working with An -- ahem. Working with the Nunklon and her minions. |
| RABBO: | Well, technically speaking, when everything is taken into consideration, ..... yes. One big "Yes". |
| (Rufus, Yasta, Anastasia, Smoky, the Stab-Stabs and the Easter Bunny burst in.) | |
| ANASTASIA: | Hello, sister dear. I've come to overthrow your empire and usurp your seat as Monarch. By the way ... you look lovely in blue. |
| RUFUS: | Welcome to hell, bunny-chumps. |
| YASTA: | Where's Miss Lashes? I'm just dying to see her. |
| ANASTASIA: | Roberto, kill the infant first. Then kill the O'Bunbun woman. The others will serve as hostages. |
| PIRICA: | You bitch! You wouldn't dare murder an innocent child! |
| ANASTASIA: | I'm not going to murder the child. |
| EASTER BUNNY: | I am. |
| SASHA: | I will not allow it! I have Divine R -- |
| ANASTASIA: | No. Your father had Divine Right. You have yet to earn the privilege. Ah, poor Teddy. My dear departed husband. |
| SASHA: | You nasty, nasty woman! |
| PIRICA: | "Bitch" is so much more expressive. |
| ANASTASIA: | Enough chattering. 'Berto - the baby. Now. |
| EASTER BUNNY: | My pleasure. |
| (The Easter Bunny approaches Sasha, relishing the look of fear on her face.) | |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | One step closer to the Queen and I'll kill you, bastard. |
| EASTER BUNNY: | I know from experience that you don't make idle threats. ..... |
| (The Easter Bunny slams his fist into Bunniquette's stomach. She doubles over, in extreme pain.) | |
| EASTER BUNNY: | I dislike you, O'Bunbun. Quite a lot. Rufus - control these morons. |
| RUFUS: | Right. |
| (Rufus produces a gun.) | |
| RUFUS: | Anyone who tries to stop the Easter Bunny will be shot dead. |
| (The Easter Bunny is just reaching down to grab Goatee when a mysterious bunny wearing a grey mask and cape swings in through the window on a rope and kicks the Easter Bunny in the face. The Easter Bunny collapses, and Rufus begins firing at the masked bunny. None of the shots connect, and the masked bunny leaps down off his rope and punches Rufus out. Anastasia, Smoky, Yasta and the Stab-Stabs are just about to leap on the masked bunny when Laff, Muncher, Skunky and Rabbitskovic run in, all aiming blasters at the bad guys.) | |
| MUNCHER: | Freeze! UBF Special Agents! If any one of you moves, we'll be forced to ventilate your cranial cavities! Step away from the Queen. |
| (All the bad guys (except the unconscious Easter Bunny) do as they're told. The masked bunny ties up Roberto.) | |
| SASHA: | Whoare you, mysterious stranger? You saved my daughter's life! |
| MASKED BUNNY: | I am ... Captain Tricky. |
| (Muncher and Laff are hand-cuffing the bad guys and chaining up Rufus and Yasta's heads.) | |
| SASHA: | You were muchly helpful, Captain Tricky! How can I ever thank you? |
| TRICKY: | No thanks necessary, your majesty. |
| SKUNKY: | If you're that great, Captain Tricky, the UBF could use you. How about joining up? |
| TRICKY: | Thanks, but no thanks. I prefer to work alone. For now, I must bid you farewell. |
| (Captain Tricky vaults out the window and is gone.) | |
| SASHA: | Who was that masked bunny? |
| MUNCHER: | Laff and I will take these criminals to the palace prison, and make sure they don't escape. Skunky, maybe you should just check that Her Majesty and Goatee are okay. |
| (Laff and Muncher march the bad guys out at gunpoint.) | |
| SKUNKY: | Now... you say you're all blue because of some machine that this Yasta character has activated? |
| SASHA: | Yes. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | And the only way to reverse the effect is to find the TCFG and turn it off. But it's obviously hidden in Anastasia's hideout, and we haven't been able to find the damn place. |
| RABBO: | I'll be back in a minute. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | Where are you going? |
| RABBO: | To find Baron Von Hopperstein. |
| (Cut to one of the palace's many large bedrooms. This one is Hoppy's. She is in there, looking out the window. There is a knock at the door, and Chris enters.) | |
| RABBO: | Bonjour. |
| HOPPY: | About as "bon" as a bullet through the spleen. |
| RABBO: | Ah... bad day? |
| HOPPY: | I've just had a bloody huge domestic with Laff. |
| RABBO: | Not been treating you nice? |
| HOPPY: | He's an arrogant, selfish, brainless, boorish, stupid, dopey, stupid, ....... stupid dope! |
| RABBO: | How positively nasty of him to be so inconsiderate. Y'oughta never speak to him again. |
| HOPPY: | That's right. |
| RABBO: | Hoppy Lashes with a problematic love-life. Well ain't that unusual! Ho, ho! |
| HOPPY: | Don't make fun of me, you sanctimonious prick! |
| RABBO: | Someone's a little touchy today. |
| HOPPY: | I'll "touchy" you in the back of the head with a lead pipe if you don't shut up! |
| RABBO: | Woo-hoo! Savage! We'd better cut to the next scene before things get violent! |
| (Cut to the throne-room. Sasha (still blue, of course) is alone. Fuzzy enters.) | |
| FUZZY: | Are you okay, Sash? Rabbitskovic just told me what happened. |
| SASHA: | Doctor Skunky says that Goatee and I are both fine. But we would both be dead if it was not for Captain Tricky! |
| FUZZY: | Who? |
| SASHA: | A mysterious masked vigilante bunny who swung in the window and defeated the Easter Bunny. |
| FUZZY: | Wow. Nerpalon 12 has its own superhero, eh? Neat. |
| SASHA: | Yes... now, if you'll excuse me, there are things I must attend to. |
| (Sasha leaves.) | |
| FUZZY: | I have a few things to do myself... |
| (A huge subterranean cavern. It is dimly lit. Standing in front of a large bank of computers is Captain Tricky. He is just slipping his mask on but we don't see his face. At the far end of the cavern a long, sleek grey car with bunny ears can be seen. This place is the Trickycave.) | |
| TRICKY: | Thank goodness the Anastasians have been locked up again. But there are other criminals in the city. I will not rest until the entire planet is purged of evil. Now do I have all my equipment? |
| (He produces a small bag and begins to search through it.) | |
| TRICKY: | Hmm... My Trickyrang is missing. Oh, I remember... I left it at the Palace. I'd better get it before anyone finds it. |
| (He runs towards the grey car.) | |
| TRICKY: | To the Trickymobile! |
| (The Palace Dungeon. Muncher, Laff. Anastasia, the Easter Bunny, and the Stab-Stabs are chained to the wall. Smoky, Rufus and Yasta can be seen in a large transparent glass-like cell.) | |
| MUNCHER: | Now, Miss Sarossy-Mammalworth, where is your hide-out? |
| ANASTASIA: | I refuse to answer your questions. You'll never find my base of operations.You'll never be able to disconnect Yasta's machine, and your pet Gods and your chainsaw witch will be powerless for the rest of their miserable lives! |
| MUNCHER: | Very well. Have it your way. But you needn't think you'll escape again.The Nerp-glass walls of the cell that holds Smoky and the SFs is completely unbreakable. |
| (Fuzzy enters.) | |
| LAFF: | Hi, Fuzz. |
| MUNCHER: | Welcome, Your Highness. |
| (Fuzzy ignores them both and storms over to Anastasia.) | |
| FUZZY: | I've had enough of your crap, bitch! I'm going to see that you never cause trouble for my friends again! |
| ANASTASIA: | What's this? Fuzzy Bunny actually does have a backbone! I thought that your time with Sasha had turned you into a spineless, cowering wimp with no personality, just like her! |
| (Fuzzy slaps her.) | |
| FUZZY: | How dare you speak of the Queen like that? |
| ANASTASIA: | You know that everything I just said about her is true! She's boring and useless! That's why you were so quick to fall in love with me! All of Sasha's beauty and none of her -- |
| FUZZY: | I never loved you! You drugged me! |
| ANASTASIA: | Ha! All I did was use a little champagne to scare off a few of your inhibitions. |
| FUZZY: | You... leave me no choice. I officially reintroduce the death penalty. Muncher, all of the prisoners will die. Today. |
| MUNCHER: | But--! The death penalty was abolished on this planet in the twenty-first century! You-- |
| FUZZY: | I am the King! You will do as I tell you. |
| (Cut to Sasha and Fuzzy's bedroom. Sasha enters.) | |
| SASHA: | It is so nice to be home again after all that time travelling. The people love me and have embraced me as their new Queen. If only Fuzzy was comfortable as King. But I am sure that he is having difficulty accepting his role. |
| (Fuzzy enters.) | |
| FUZZY: | Hi, Sash. Can we talk? |
| SASHA: | Certainly. Is something bothering you? |
| FUZZY: | I can't handle this "King" thing. I just came to say good bye. |
| SASHA: | What? |
| FUZZY: | The Insectblanket and I are leaving. |
| SASHA: | What? Leaving?! But we -- You --I love you, Fuzzy! You said you'd never leave me like you left Pirica! |
| FUZZY: | This is different. Pirica never expected me to rule the largest star system in the universe. That's too much, Sash. I'm just not King material. |
| SASHA: | You can't leave me, Fuzzy! You can't! Goatee needs her father! |
| FUZZY: | Goatee's father is dead. Being King is bad enough ... but parenthood? I'm sorry Sasha. |
| SASHA: | Fuzzy-- |
| FUZZY: | I love you Sasha. |
| (Fuzzy turns away sadly and walks out. A full minute passes. Sasha just sits in silence, shocked. Pirica enters.) | |
| PIRICA: | Hey, what's up with Fuzzy? I just saw him walking down the corridor, and he looked -- |
| (Ric notices that Sasha is crying.) | |
| PIRICA: | Sasha! What's wrong? |
| (Pirica puts an arm around Sasha, who is now crying almost hysterically Suddenly Hoppy runs in.) | |
| HOPPY: | Hey, Sash! I just saw Fuzz take off in the 'Blanket! Where's he going? |
| (Hoppy sees that Sasha is crying.) | |
| HOPPY: | Oh... have I come at a bad time? |
| PIRICA: | Fuzzy just left? The planet? That utter bastard! I'm so sorry, Queen Sasha. But at least he waited until after your wedding to leave. |
| HOPPY: | What? Are you saying Fuzzy's left her? |
| PIRICA: | Yes. He did it to me, he's done it to Sasha, and he'll do it to the next poor girl who falls for his charms. |
| SASHA: | No! He loves me! He does! But he doesn't want to be King! I knew he didn't want to! But father insisted! We should never have come back. I knew that Fuzzy didn't like the idea of having to rule my home, but I still made him! It's all my fault! |
| PIRICA: | Don't say that! Men! They're all alike. They can't be trusted. |
| HOPPY: | Tell me about it! Laff has been so grouchy lately! |
| (Cut to Gumman in the control room of the UBF base. He is watching a monitor screen on which the Insectblanket can be seen rising into space.) | |
| GUMMAN: | Just a -- that's the 'Blanket! What the heck? |
| (Cut to Captain Tricky in the Trickycave. His finger is raised above a large red button on a computer console.) | |
| TRICKY: | This is gonna hurt. |
| (He presses the button.) | |
| (Back to Gumman. He is still watching Fuzzy's ship. Which explodes. Dramatically.) | |
| GUMMAN: | Holy fucking Goddamn shit! Oh, my -- |
| (He runs out of the room in a panic. Cut to the throne-room. Abbie, Earless, Westminster, Rabbitskovic. Gumman runs in.) | |
| ABBIE: | Doctor Gumman! What's wrong? |
| GUMMAN: | Where's Sasha? I must speak to Sasha! |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | What-- |
| GUMMAN: | Doberman, old boy, get out to the Gardens, and take young Draino. The Insectblanket just exploded and crashed outside. I think Fuzzy was in it! You have to make sure he's okay! I've got to tell Sasha! |
| ABBIE: | Oh, my! Dad, go and find Bunniquette and the others! |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | I'll go and get Doctor Skunky immediately. |
| (Everyone rushes out. Cut to Sasha, Pirica and Hoppy in Sasha's room. Sasha has stopped crying but still looks far from happy. Gumman bursts in.) | |
| GUMMAN: | Sasha! |
| HOPPY: | Do you mind? Sasha's upset. Fuzzy just -- |
| GUMMAN: | Exploded! Fuzzy just exploded! |
| THE GIRL BUNNIES: | What? Exploded? |
| PIRICA: | What do you mean? |
| SASHA: | Where is he? Is he all right? |
| GUMMAN: | I don't know. The ship just blew up, and the remains landed just outside. Draino Skunky and the others are out there checking on him. You'd better get out there quick! |
| (Cut to the Palace Gardens. The barely recognisable remains of Fuzzy's ship can be seen. Standing around it are Rabbitskovic, Skunky, Abbie, Westminster, Earless, Bunniquette, Rabbo, Muncher, and Laff. Sasha, Hoppy, Pirica and Gumman run out of the Palace.) | |
| SASHA: | Fuzzy! Fuzzy, where are you? |
| SKUNKY | Queen Sasha - I-- |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | Your Highness... there were no survivors. ...... your husband's body was completely incinerated. |
| LAFF: | It looks as though the rear engines overheated. The poor little ship couldn't handle the stress, and -- |
| SASHA: | Where's Fuzzy? I need to speak to Fuzzy! I have to tell him not to go! I have to tell him that his spaceship will explode, and he'll -- he'll ... die? |
| ABBIE: | I'm so sorry, Sasha. if it's any consolation, he... wouldn't have suffered. |
| SASHA: | Suff... Suffered! But he did! That's why he... left |
| SKUNKY: | I think the Queen has gone into shock. |
| SASHA: | I shouldn't have forced him to be King. That's why he left. He's gone now, and he's not coming back, is he, Pirica? |
| MUNCHER: | Come on, Laff. We've got work to do. |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | Where are you going? |
| MUNCHER: | To carry out King Fuzzy's last wish. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | ...Which was...? |
| MUNCHER: | The death of Anastasia Sarossy-Mammalworth. |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | But the death penalty was -- |
| MUNCHER: | Reintroduced this morning by the King. Anastasia and all of her accomplices are to be executed at once. |
| SASHA: | Yes. Good. Make them feel pain. Especially the Nunklon. Now ... I have to... go. Goatee will wake up soon and I need to prepare her lunch. |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | My Queen, I think it best if-- |
| PIRICA: | I'll take care of her, Regent. |
| (Muncher, Laff, Sasha and Pirica return to the Palace.) | |
| WESTMINSTER: | I can't believe Fuzzy is ... dead! |
| (Abbie hugs him.) | |
| ABBIE: | Just when all of our enemies were finally locked up and everything was going well. |
| (Captain Tricky arrives.) | |
| CAPTAIN TRICKY: | I... saw what happened. If there's anything I can do to help... |
| EARLESS: | You can bugger off, is what you can do. |
| ABBIE: | Dad! |
| EARLESS: | I don't trust him, Abbigail. Bunnies who wear masks have got something to hide. And he reminds me of someone. Can't think who... But believe me, any bunny who runs about with a dusty sheet tied round his neck has got major problems. |
| ABBIE: | It's a cape, dad! He's a superhero. |
| EARLESS: | Yeah, well, I've met superheroes before. |
| TRICKY: | Have you? |
| EARLESS: | ...None of your business, hero-ears. Now bog off. |
| TRICKY: | I can see that you're all upset. Farewell... for now. |
| (Captain Tricky vanishes in a puff of smoke. Cut to the Trickycave. The Trickymobile drives in and Captain Tricky climbs out.) | |
| TRICKY: | Sigh... I didn't like detonating the ship... but I had no choice. I just hope the Queen can forgive me for destroying her life. I will attempt to make amends by finding and destroying Yasta's Thaumic Containment Field Generator so that Tessa and Sasha regain their magical powers ... although it's possible that the two Gods may cause trouble. I will have to see that they are unable to interfere. |
| (Cut to the throne-room. Sasha, Goatee, Pirica, Gumman, Bunniquette, Rabbo, Lucky, Tessa, Lennie, Muncher, Skunky, Rabbitskovic, Abbie, Westminster, Earless. Everyone is mega-depressed, and Sasha, Tessa, Rabbo and Lucky are still all blue. They are gathered around an urn full of ashes.) | |
| RABBITSKOVIC: | ... May he rest in peace. |
| (Sasha sobs, and Pirica is also close to tears.) | |
| SASHA: | Oh, Fuzzy, why did you leave me? First father, now you. Now the only family have left is poor little adopted Disembowelled Goat. |
| ABBIE: | Sasha... we're all your family. We all love you, and we'll be here for you. |
| SASHA: | Thank you, Abbie, but -- |
| (Sasha regains her composure and stops crying, wiping the tears from her face.) | |
| SASHA: | --I will be fine now. I must be strong for my people. The Nerpalon System will be devastated when they hear that another of their Kings is gone. |
| PIRICA: | Are you sure you're all right, Queen Sasha? |
| SASHA: | Of course. Now ... Agent Muncher, did you see to the execution of the Anastasians? |
| MUNCHER: | Yes. They're all dead. Anastasia, the Easter Bunny, Pommel and Pummel, Smoky, Yasta and Rufus. But we still need to find Yasta's machine. |
| SASHA: | We will. And no criminal will ever be daring to threaten us again. Today begins a new era. Gone is the Sasha Uulamets of the past. From this moment, I vow to be heartless and cruel. The world has bitten me, and I am planning to bite back. |
| BUNNIQUETTE: | That's it. She's flipped. Arrivederci, Mister Sanity. Call the bunnies in the white coats. |
| (Cut to the Palace Dump. Lying on top of a huge mountain of garbage are the corpses of the bad guys. After a few moments, Anastasia opens her eyes.) | |
| ANASTASIA: | Those fools! They've wasted their time! This body was dead when I first entered it! They can't kill me if I'm dead already! It is a shame to lose Roberto and the others though. Still, they're expendable. So ... the King is dead, eh? Well then, I'll just have to take over the Queen'sbody. And no one will ever suspect, because they all think they've killed me! The universe will be mine yet! Nothing can stop me now! Anastasia Sarossy-Mammalworth will reign supreme! |
(Here ends the King Fuzzy Trilogy.)
