***Don't forget to enter the contest here and check out the grand prize here. Polls close tonight at midnight EST.***

SCENE 21

INT – UFO BRIDGE
(ZORBON, ZANDAR)

ZORBON AND ZANDAR ARE WATCHING THE EXTERIOR OF THE CASTLE ON THEIR MONITOR.

ZANDAR

What the hell is that?

ZORBON

I don't know.

EXT – FRANCOPHILE CASTLE – CONTINUOUS
(PEASANTS 1-4)

AN ANGRY MOB WITH PITCHFORKS AND TORCHES ARE CLAMORING TOWARDS THE CASTLE, YELLING ABUSE. THE HIDEOUS FREAK LEAPS DOWN FROM THE PRECIPICE OF THE WRECKED CASTLE ROOF AND LANDS RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE MOB.

PEASANT #1

There's the beast!

PEASANT #2

I knew Francophile was building some sort of hideous freak!

PEASANT #3

Kill the beast now! We'll come back to murder Francophile after we've eaten. We can have turkey!

ALL

Yeah, turkey!

PEASANT #4

Kill! Kill!

ALL
(chanting)

Kill! Kill! Faster pussycat, kill, kill!

THE HIDEOUS FREAK ROARS IN ANGER AND RUNS AWAY TOWARDS THE FOREST. THE MOB RAMBLES ON AFTER IT. THE UFO HOVERS ABOVE THE CROWD.

INT – UFO BRIDGE - CONTINUOUS
(ZORBON, ZANDAR, BORIS)

ZORBON AND ZANDAR WATCH THE MOB CHASE THE HIDEOUS FREAK INTO THE WOODS ON THEIR MONITOR.

ZANDAR

Should we chase the monster?

ZORBON

No, we should observe this social structure that's chasing him though. We could learn a lot about earthling social mentality.

ZANDAR

Wait, there goes the scientist!

ZANDAR POINTS TO THE MONITOR WHERE ALGORE AND FRANCOPHILE ARE RUNNING OUT THE BACK DOOR.

ZORBON

Fire one last shot at the castle, then follow the scientist, maximum speed!

THE CANNON FIRES ONE SHOT, BRINGING THE REST OF THE CASTLE TUMBLING DOWN, THEN THE UFO TAKES OFF IN PURSUIT OF FRANCOPHILE. BORIS THE TARANTULA, NOW IMMENSE, EMERGES FROM THE RUBBLE. HE SHAKES THE SOOT OFF HIMSELF.

BORIS

Food! Boris needs something to eat! Boris will eat!

BORIS STRIDES OFF, MUTTERING TO HIMSELF.
