SCENE 10
INT – THE FRANCOPHILE LAB
(FRANCOPHILE, ALGORE)
ALGORE IS JOGGING IN PLACE ON A SMALL PATCH OF GREEN CARPET. HIS HAIR IS STANDING UP SLIGHTLY FROM STATIC ELECTRICITY. HE IS TOUCHING ONE OF HIS INDEX FINGERS TO THE MONSTER. FRANCOPHILE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE LAB SO THAT THE DOORKNOB IS WITHIN ALGORE’S REACH.
FRANCOPHILE
Now, Algore, touch the doorknob and my creature will come to life from static electricity!
ALGORE STRAINS TO REACH THE DOORKNOB BUT JUST BARELY CAN’T REACH IT WHILE TOUCHING THE MONSTER AND JOGGIN IN PLACE ON THE CARPET.
ALGORE
I can't reach it, Professor Francophile!
FRANCOPHILE
Can't reach the doorknob! What kind of a convoluted plot device is that?
Heh - gotta love B Movies. Fun stuff!
ReplyDeleteHey, thanks for stopping by, Isaac. I have no idea why screensavers disappeared. Natural selection?

See, this is what makes the interwebs nice for people. Positive reinforcement.

Redleg, your comment re screensavers got me thinking and I wrote up a little flash piece because of it, which is now posted on my blog :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Quel increable! I am flattered and a little impressed. I guess inspiration comes in strange places. There is, of course, now a link to your story on my site.
ReplyDeleteHey, thanks
