Gulliver's Travels Page #3

Synopsis: Lemuel Gulliver has been working in the mail room of a New York daily newspaper for the past ten years. Afraid to put himself out there, he considers himself a loser, as do all his peers. One day, after having finally had enough, he decides to declare his flame to the beautiful Darcy Silverman, the newspaper's travel editor and one of Gulliver's only friends...only to chicken out at the last minute and instead tell her that he'd like to try his hand at writing a column. Darcy accepts and sends him on an assignment to the Bermuda Triangle. There, Gulliver becomes shipwrecked and ends up on the island of Liliput, where he is twelve taller than the tallest man. For the first time, Gulliver has people looking up to him...

Commander of Lilliput.

All hail Lilliput!

All hail Lilliput!

You are herewith charged with aiding

our sworn enemy, the Blefuscians.

You are my prisoner, and shall be presented

to our Royal Highness, King Theodore.

What say you...

beast?

You are not real!

Where is my...?

Where am I?

This must be a dream.

I'm gonna close my eyes, then I'm gonna

open them, and I'll be home in bed.

Okay! Okay!

My spear!

Bring the beast down!

All right, boys! Release the hookers.

Pull, pull!

Hey!

Pull!

Hey, not cool.

Hey, that's my pants. That's not funny!

Unlucky.

Heave!

Heave!

It was awful, horrid! Nightmarish!

I was trapped in the valley

of violent rumbles.

I was nauseous!

Lift!

Squad, halt!

This giant is hereby declared...

the property of

His Majesty King Theodore.

All hail King Theodore!

All hail King Theodore!

I wanted a bracelet,

not a great big hairy beast.

Oh, dear!

Are those restraints really necessary?

They are, my innocent,

naive little bunny tail.

To prevent the giant beast from

running rampant and killing us all.

What is this thing?

A Blefuscian spy.

I'm not a blue fish man.

I don't even know what that is.

Will someone please just

tell me where I am?

You are in Lilliput.

Lilli-puh?

The grandest and greatest land

in all the world. All hail Lilliput!

All hail Lilliput!

This is insane. This is insane.

Okay, enough.

Come out with the funny cameras.

Mealtime, beast!

Hay? I can't eat hay.

Eat up! You have a busy day

ahead of you, beast!

Enough with the beast!

I may be a giant, but I have feelings!

I think you'll find that the hay...

is a bit more digestible

if mixed with some...

sewer water.

I'm sorry that my countrymen call you

a beast. I do not think of you as a beast.

As a matter of fact,

before you arrived...

I was the tallest man in Lilliput.

So I know how you feel.

Thanks, man.

I can't reach you for a handshake.

I'm Gulliver.

Horatio.

Oh, man.

You guys are so tiny.

Are you the only other prisoner

in the whole dungeon?

Yes.

I have been placed in this prison

by the great and glorious...

General Edward Edwardian...

for sending a lascivious look

to his betrothed...

Princess Mary.

That's it?

He put you in prison

for hitting on his lady?

Dude, that is harsh.

No, you must understand.

I am of a lowly station.

To legally court a woman

of her stature...

one must commit a valiant action...

and this is virtually impossible

as a commoner.

Come on, don't be so hard on yourself.

You seem like a cool guy.

You could do something valiant.

General Edward has led

countless crusades...

and is known far and wide

for his bravery.

I'm no General Edward.
