SCENE 39
EXT – BLACKSMITH SHOP
(ZORBON, ZANDAR, BLACKSMITH)
THE BLACKSMITH EMERGES FROM THE UFO, WIPING HIS HANDS WITH A CHEESECLOTH.
BLACKSMITH
Listen, guys, I’ve fixed up most of your boat, but frankly I don’t know if I can fix your hyperdrive without at least a couple more hydrospanners. Besides, this engine looks like it’s billions of years beyond anything we have here on earth.
ZORBON
You mean we’re grounded?
ZANDAR
Stuck here on Earth?
BLACKSMITH
Say…I thought you two said you were earthlings.
ZORBON
Yes. Yes, of course we are.
BELATEDLY ZORBON PUTS ON A FEDORA TO COVER HIS BEANIE ANTENNAE. ZANDAR, NOT HAVING A HAT HANDY, SIMPLY TAKE HIS BEANIE OFF.
BLACKSMITH
Oh, all right then. So about those 24 million credits…
