Monkeybone Page #2
INT. CLASSROOM (ANIMATED)
As the monkey dance continues, we ZOOM IN on the mortified face of
LITTLE STANLEY. His eyes begin doing the familiar HYPNO-SWIRL...
INT. SHRINK'S OFFICE (ANIMATED)
A CUCKOO pops out of a wall clock. ADULT STANLEY'S THUMB pops out of his
mouth. He awakens from his trance in a cold sweat.
STANLEY:
How about it, Doc? Can you help me?
SHRINK:
Not overnight. These imaginary monkey cases take
time. I vould estimate...roughly...
On the desk is a CATALOGUE, open to a two-page spread depicting a 40-
foot CABIN CRUISER. "NEW FOR SUMMER! ONLY $229,999.95!" With his free
hand, the SHRINK is working a CALCULATOR...
SHRINK:
Twelve years and three months ought to do it.
The SHRINK hustles STANLEY to the door and shakes his hand.
STANLEY:
One question, doc - what did you mean when you
said "imaginary"?
SHRINK:
All in good time, my boy. All in good time.
The SHRINK shoves STANLEY out and slams the door behind him. Two beats.
Then he doubles over, WEEPING with LAUGHTER.
SHRINK:
Vot a crackpot! Monkey on ze back - HAH!! ROLL
Now he notices a BACKPACK, which STANLEY has left on the couch. It
TWITCHES slightly - of its own free will.
VOICE IN BACKPACK
Imaginary, huh? You quack.
EXT. SHRINK'S BUILDING (ANIMATED)
A WINDOW shatters. The SHRINK comes hurtling out. MONKEYBONE STRADDLES
HIM like Slim Pickens riding an H-bomb, hootin' and hollerin' all the
way down to the street.
SPLAT! A gob of gore hits STANLEY in the face as he exits the building.
He kneels on the sidewalk - finding a PIPE and a GOATEE.
STANLEY:
Aw, Monkeybone! At this rate I'll never find a
good shrink.
MONKEYBONE:
Those guys are a waste of money! I'll show you
how to stop sucking your thumb...
MONKEYBONE sticks his thumb in his butt as he and STANLEY toddle off
into the sunset.
INT. SCREENING ROOM - THAT MOMENT
STANDING O from the crowd as the cartoon ends and the lights come up.
HERB, an all-purpose sidekick type, appears at the podium:
HERB:
Thank you...that's our pilot...the good news is,
Comedy Channel has just picked us up with an
order for six new episodes!
