[The scene takes place at the graveyard in Hamlet. Yakko plays Hamlet and Wakko plays Horatio, while Dot translates the Shakespearian language]
And now, the Warner Brothers in a scene from Shakespeare's "Hamlet", translated for those viewers who, like Yakko, have no idea what he's talking about.
[Yakko gives a stern look, and Dot, the translator, giggles. Wakko has dug up Skullhead. Yakko sees this, rushes back and snatches him from Wakko, then returns to his previous position]
Alas, poor Yorrick!
Whoa, check out Skullhead!
[while Wakko digs up an odd lamp and tosses away] I knew him, Horatio - a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.
He was funny.
[while Wakko digs up a mummy who runs away] He hath bore me on his back a thousand times.
He gave me piggy-back rides.
And now, how abhorred in my imagination it is. My gorge rises at it.
I'm going to blow chunks. Bleugh!
[Wakko pulls a squid out of the grave and tosses it aside]
[kisses Skullhead while Dot looks away, embarrassed, as Wakko tosses a kitchen sink] Here hung those lips I have kissed I know not how oft.
[Wakko pulls a pink 1959 Cadillac DeVille convertible out of the grave, then pushes it away]
We kissed a lot - not!
Where be your jibes now? Your gambols? Your songs? Your flashes of merriment that were wont to set the table on a roar?
[while Wakko pulls up a large rocket] How come you're not funny now?
[Wakko must stop to rest before he's through]
Not one now to mock your own grinning... [Skullhead's jaw falls to the ground as the rocket launches] ...quite chop-fallen?
No one's laughing now, and, by the way, your lower jaw's missing. [picks up the jaw from her interpreter's circle and hands it to Yakko]
[Wakko uses his shovel once more and lifts Cher out of the grave. She screams, bonks him on the head, and runs off]
[watches Cher run towards the hills] Now get you to my lady's chamber and tell her. Let her paint an inch thick. To this favour she must come. Make her laugh at that. [tosses Skullhead toward the hills]
[Skullhead runs after Cher]
Follow that woman and tell her, no matter how much makeup she wears, [Skullhead grabs Cher from behind] she's still going to croak and end up looking just like you, [Cher punches Skullhead] and see if she laughs.
[Wakko motions for Yakko to come to the grave]
Prithee, Horatio, tell me one thing:
[jumps out of her circle and joins them] What'd you find in the hole?
Our next cartoon!
