Otto & Sam -- "Visit to Headquarters" The scene is Road Rover Headquarters, around five in the afternoon. With a loud BOOM!!!! Otto, Samantha, Molly and the Computer Gila Monster arrive in the transdogmafier room. As the Gila Monster looks on, Otto, Samantha and Molly enter the chambers and emerge as Cano-Sapiens. MOLLY (frowns): Guys, I'm worried about DJ. Usually, he's waiting for me when I come home from the office, but today, he wasn't there. SAMANTHA (smiles): I'm sure there's a good reason, Molly. GILA MONSTER (nods): He may be on a mission, or something like that! OTTO (nods, points): That is unlikely, I am detecting his collar signal coming from that direction. It is likely he is repairing or rebuilding some sort of Rover vehicle. MOLLY (smiling): Thanks, Otto! See you guys later! As Molly runs at lightning speed down the hallway, Otto, Sam and the Gila Monster enter the dining room area to see what Shag has been cooking. There they meet Hunter, Colleen and Exlie. HUNTER (waves): Hey, how's it waggin' you guys! GILA MONSTER (laughs): Mine wags a lot harder than yours does, doggie! SAMANTHA (laughs): Hunter was being rhetorical, Mr Gila, sir.... GILA MONSTER (extends hand): I don't care what your politics are, Hunter, I'm glad to meet you again! HUNTER (confused): Er.... right, thanks! COLLEEN (smiles): So, how's my twin sister doing? SAMANTHA (laughs): I'm doing very well, thank you, ma'am! EXILE (smiles): Comrade Gila, let's you and me arm wrestle! GILA MONSTER (puts 2 x 4 on the table): Alright, Exile, what does I git when I win? EXILE (shakes head): Nyet, you mean ..... GILA MONSTER (interrupts): I git a net! GREAT!!! I can help Amos Doggie catch crawdads with it! EXILE (confused): But that's not what I ..... (sighs) .... Dokey Okey,. if you win, I buy you big net! If I win, you buy me dinner at Chunkie Lunkie's, is it a deal? GILA MONSTER (shakes hands): Sounds good to me! Exile and the Gila sits alone at a table, getting into position to arm wrestle. EXILE (shouts): Comrade Colleen, will you start us? COLLEEN (nods, walks over): Sure thing, Exile! (puts her hand on top of the clinched grip of Exile and the Gila) On your mark, get set...... GO!! Exile and the Gila Monster grunt as they arm wrestle. It's nearly a dead heat, both men are very, very strong. As the others gather around to watch, the seen shifts to the motor pool, where Molly is frantically searching for DJ. She zooms by row after row of parked vehicles, unable to find him. She calls out for him and then hears him call back. She runs in his direction, encountering two huge vehicles with Road Rover ensignias on their side panels. One she recognizes as the Mobile Road Rover Headquarters, the other looked like a huge deisel truck. She finds DJ examining the deisel rigs engine. Molly thought about greeting him with a hug, but her mood changes when she sees a female German Shepard walking over to him holding a wrench. DJ (looks up): Oh, hi there, Molly! I'd like you to meet Hope, she's the assigned driver of the Mobile Road Rover Headquarters! HOPE (extends hand): Pleased to meet you, Molly! MOLLY (nervous smile): It's good to meet you also.... DJ (smiles): Just look at her, isn't she a beauty? MOLLY (surprised): Well, Hope certainly is a very ..... DJ (laughs): No, no, Molly, I was talking about this big rig here! It's called the Deisel Rover, and the Master has assigned ME to be it's official driver! MOLLY (smiles): Congradulations, DJ! DJ (smiles): Oh yeah, I'm sorry I wasn't there to greet you after work today, but the Deisel Rover has been keeping us busy all day! HOPE (smiles): It's true, Molly, Deej and I just completely overhauled the entire engine! MOLLY (to herself): Deej? DJ (takes wrench from Hope): Hope, why don't you give Molly a guilded tour of the Mobile HQ? She's quite the mechanic herself! HOPE (smiles): Really! Then you'll appreciate all the features and innovations I've installed in it. Come this way and I'll show you everything! As Hope and Molly walk over to the huge Mobile HQ, the scene shifts back to the dining room, where Exile and the Gila Monster are still arm wreslting, both are breaking a sweat and growling. COLLEEN (cheering): C'mon, Exile, you can take'm! OTTO (smiling): That's it, Gila, you're wearing him out! HUNTER (smiles): I would not have predicted this! You two have been locked together for fifteen minutes now! EXILE (grunting): I...will......not......give......in GILA (groaning): I.....ain't.......neither....... SAMANTHA (turns to Otto): Honey, what is your analysis of this situation? OTTO (sternly): Each contestant is evenly matched in arm strength. However, Exile's enhanced abilities of ice and heat eye beams could give him an advantage in ... HUNTER (interrupts): Whoa, pal! This is just an arm wrestling match, not a street fight! OTTO (embarrassed): You are correct, Hunter, I am sorry. SAMANTHA (cheers): Get'm Gila! As Exile and the Gila Monster continue their titanic struggle, the scene switches to the inside of the Moblie HQ, Hope is showing Molly all of the computer consoles and the transdogmafier. They both sit down in the lounge area. HOPE (smiles): Molly, may I ask you a personal question? MOLLY (nervously): Sure, Hope, go ahead! HOPE (leans towards Molly): I've met this wonderful guy, I'd like to go out with him, but I'm a little shy, what should I do? The question causes Molly to nearly faint. That's exactly the way she feels about approaching DJ, but now it looks like Hope has her eye on the handsome German Shepard. Molly is heartbroken, but is putting on a 'good face.' MOLLY (stuttering): Well.....I......don't .........really know......the answer.....to that..... HOPE (concerned): Molly, is something wrong? You really look stressed out. MOLLY (shakes head): No, I'm alright HOPE (relieved): Good, I was hoping you could give me some advice, after all, Warrior is no ordinary Cano-Sapien! MOLLY (shocked): Warrior? Who is Warrior? HOPE (sadly): Warrior is a Cano-Mutant that Toil, Stardust, Muzzle and I rescued in New York a few months ago. Parvo 'genetically altered' him into the ultimate fighting canine. The Master has had Professor Hubert and Uncle Buford working with him. He's an eight foot tall super intelligent Cano-Sapien! What a man! MOLLY (sigh of relief): Well, does he have any feelings for you? HOPE (shakes head): I don't know, he's still trying to get used to having a mind of his own. MOLLY (smiles): Just ask him! What have you got to lose? HOPE (nods): You're absolutely right, Molly! No wonder DJ speaks so highly of you, you're so wise! MOLLY (smiles): Thanks, Hope! As Molly and Hope depart from the Mobile Headquarters, the scene shifts back to the dining room, where Exile and the Gila are still arm wrestling. HUNTER (looks at watch): It's been almost an hour, will you two ever get this settled? EXILE (sweating and shaking): Da! We settle this NOW!! Exile pushes with all his might, and moves the Gila's arm closer to the edge of the table. GILA MONSTER (sweating and grunting): Not ... so ....fast! The Gila pushes back and now has Exile's arm heading towards the table. COLLEEN (shakes head): You two bloaks better settle this soon! Shag says he wants to serve dinner now! HUNTER (smiing): What's he serving? COLLEEN (shakes head): Some recipe he got recently...... something called crawdad bisk! GILA MONSTER (brightens): Crawdad......bisk!!!!........ The Gila Monster pushes Exile's arm to the table with a hard thud. GILA MONSTER (jumps out of his chair): There, we're done! Give me some of that bisk! EXILE (grabbing his arm): Comrade Gila, you are quite strong! I be needing second aid! HUNTER (smiles): Yet another unexpected twist! Bummer! OTTO (sternly): That was an unforseen factor in this competition... SAMANTHA (laughs): I could've told you that was coming! The Gila Monster returns to the table with a huge bowl of bisk. The others surround him and watch as he sticks his face in the bowl and slurps loudly. COLLEEN (turns head): EWWWW! GROSS!!!! HUNTER (turns head): And I thought Muzzle was a sloppy eater! SAMANTHA (angry): Mr Gila, sir, have you forgotten all my Otto and I taught you about table manners? OTTO (shakes head): It appears that he has! EXILE (nods): That's the way Siberian bears eat! COLLEEN (shakes head): But not with THAT much noise! GILA MONSTER (belches): I'm ready for more! SAMANTHA (shakes head): No wonder none of my sisters will date him! Hope, DJ and Molly enter the dining room area. MOLLY (points at Gila): I see he's back to his old table manners, right? DJ (laughs): Reminds me of the way I used to eat as a dog! HOPE (confused): You guys KNOW that reptile? SAMANTHA (nods): Yes, Hope, ma'am GILA MONSTER (sees Hope and wipes his mouth on his sleeve): WOW!!! You are a good lookin female! I'm the Computer Gila Monster, but you can call me Gila! HOPE (slight smile): Er...yes! Pleased to meet you, Gila! GILA MONSTER (smiles): May I take you out on a date, ma'am? HOPE (to herself): I'd rather eat a sweaty sneaker (outloud): Sorry, Gila, I'm busy tonight. GILA MONSTER (growls): All the good lookin' ones are always busy! Oh well, I WANT MORE BISK!!! The Gila Monster returns to the kitchen. HOPE (turns to Molly and DJ): Is he dangerous? DJ (laughs): Only to bad guys! MOLLY (smiles): Don't worry, the one thing the Gila loves better than romance and fighting is FOOD! As Molly is speaking, Warrior (large Cano-Sapien with a St Bernard head) enters the dining room, Hope sees him and runs over to his side. WARRIOR (smiles): Hope! It is good to see you again! How are Toil, Stardust and Muzzle? HOPE (smiles): All of them are doing just fine! I'd like to talk to you alone, let's take a walk, OK? WARRIOR (nods): Alright, Hope, I will walk with you! Hope takes the huge St Bernard's arm and walks down the hallway with him. DJ notices Molly's huge grin. DJ (looks at Molly): Molly, do you know anything about this? MOLLY (smiles): Well, y'know, girl talk and all ........ OTTO (sternly): I would suggest that we all go to the kitchen while there is still food available to eat. SAMANTHA (points): We maybe too late! Sam is pointing at the Gila Monster, who has an even bigger bowl of bisk and proceeds to 'dive' headfirst into it. HUNTER (turns to the others): I say let's go out for pizza! COLLEEN (nods): Sounds like a good idea, Huntie-Wuntie! SAMANTHA (nods): I agree, Mr Hunter, sir! OTTO (nods): Perhaps I could pay for our order. It's the least Sam and I could do. EXILE (nods): Da! Kitchen is as empty as KGB's heart! SHAG (frantic): RAH RUH RUH! SAMANTHA (looks at Shag): It's alright, Mr Shag, sir! We're going to order pizza! SHAG (excited): PEEZ-RUH REH!! HUNTER (smiles): It's unanimous, Rovers! Let's go fetch some pizza! All of the Rovers howl in unison and leave the room. It's ten minutes before the Gila Monster notices that their gone. GILA MONSTER (shouts): HEY! WHERE IS EVERYONE??? OTTO!! SAM!!!! HUNTER!!!! SHAG!!!!! WHERE ARE Y'ALL??? I'M STILL HUNGRY!!!! Oh well, maybe I'll go over to Ben Maddog's place! I'll either get some grub, or a date! (huge smile) --------------------------------------------------------------
