[Over the opening logo (The letters EB in a circle), titles, and credits of this Encyclopedia Britannica film...]

Easter Bunny films presents...

Servo

"Truck Farmer": The special edition. Includes scenes the studio thought too graphic for audiences.

Wonder if they sold this film door to door?

[A tractor is clearing down trees for farming.]

Aah! It's Killdozer! Clint Walker, no!

Servo

Here, thousands of acres of rainforest are cleared away. Who cares?

CACrow [as driver]

Stupid trees! God, I hate them.

Early tractor pulls, not that much fun. This is the freestyle competition.

Don't see many of these trees anymore. Well, down it goes.

Servo

The sad thing is this guy doesn't even work for anybody. He's just doing this for kicks!

Go, Speed Farmer!

Go, Speed Farmer!

Go, Speed Farmer, go!

. . .

Servo

There's something you don't see every day.

What's that?

Servo

A farmer with all his limbs!

[During Jimmy's trial...]

Maybe I shouldn't say this, Your Honor...

JAJoel [as Jimmy]

...but I'm Esther Rolle!

But... I accuse my parents!

[Everyone applauds.]

Servo

Yes! We have a title!

[Kitty abruptly breaks off her relationship with Jimmy.]

You'll always be a shoe salesman at $25 a week.

SAServo [as Jimmy]

Eighteen, after taxes!

[The lumpy-haired Kitty cries after Blake forces her to break up with Jimmy.]

SAServo [as Kitty]

If I had parents, I'd accuse them right now!

I accuse her hair!

[Servo has Crow cover him in skin-color paint to fufill his desire to be a "real boy"]

Servo

The human body in all its many shapes and sizes is a wonder to behold! Today I emerge from my metal chrysalis... I am no longer Tom Servo- mere robot; I am now Tom Servo- real live boy! Ah-ha! Snips and snails and puppy dogs' tails, that's what Tommy boy's made of!

Really, huh? I knew this was gonna happen someday- you've come down with Pinocchio Syndrome!

Servo

Nonsense! It has always been my dream to be a real live boy; and now, I am that very thing.

Why? There's millions of real live boys on Earth; [but] there's only one Tom Servo!

Servo

I want to run and jump and skin my knees!

You don't have any legs.

Servo

I- I wanna catch frogs down by the ol' swimming hole.

Your arms don't even work.

Servo

[starting to become forlorn] I want to experience the world of emotions and feelings!

[bluntly] You'll get beat up, because you're a freak.

Servo

[sorrowfully, as Joel comforts him] Oh; now I know I'm a real life boy- I can feel my heart breaking.

Okay, so, is everybody done with their art-therapy project?

Mm-hmm.

Tom Servo

Joel, what's the point of this art-therapy stuff, anyway, huh?

Well, by having you draw pictures of your idealized family, maybe you can escape some of the deep psychological problems that Jimmy, the star of today's movie, suffered because of his family. So let's see what you've drawn, okay? This is Crow's... .

[Crow's drawing is a giant version of himself with a handlebar mustache, knives for hands, and lasers firing from his chest, walking down a city street crushing buildings]

Servo

Huh.

That's my dad. He's all-powerful! His hands are made of stainless steel and he has lasers that shoot out of his chest. Pyeww! Pyeww!

Ooh!

I don't have to tell ya, he's the coolest dad in the whole neighborhood. And when we go to father-son picnics, we win every event. And he dispenses homespun wisdom and teaches solid Midwestern values while crushing all who block his path!

Ahh... .

Uh huh. And what about the handlebar mustache?

Uh... .I dunno.

Okay, let's see here. [writes] "Oral obsession with mustache indicates nasal-labial shame." Good, okay. Now let's see yours here, Tom. What's this?

[Tom's drawing is two women holding hands, with a big robot standing behind them]

Servo

Okeydoke! Uh, that's my mom, my dad and my mom. My mom is Hayley Mills, my dad is Gigantor and my mom is Peggy Cass.

Uh huh. And why are your moms holding hands, Tom?

Servo

I dunno.

Okay, let's see... . [writes] "Latent "Parent Trap" syndrome." [aside whisper] Man should be in a straitjacket! [addresses Gypsy] Okay, Gypsy, this one's really nice, what about this one?

[Gypsy's is of her, Crow, Joel, Tom and Cambot--holding hands, with Richard Basehart looking down on them from a cloud overhead]

Gypsy: Well, Joel, my ideal family is right here! And I know Richard Basehart watches over us all.

Oh, that's really sweet, Gypsy. But tell me, why does Richard Basehart get to play God?

I dunno.

Uh, Joel? Why are you spending your time psychoanalyzing robots?

Um... .I don't know.

[Short but awkward silence]

I'm kidding, of course.

[Commercial sign]

We'll be right back. I do know! I really do know.

[During the opening title song, which praises all the wonderful qualities of Neil Connery...]

[singing] He gets his haircut on Tuesdays!

[singing] He prefers stuffing to potatoes!

Tom Servo

[singing] His favorite movie is Turner and Hooch!

[on the S.O.L. bridge, Joel dresses like a Bond villain, as the Bots dress as his henchmen]

Alright, it's time for my daily back rub; who's going to do the honors?

Servo

Joel, none of us having working arms.

I know.

[Well-off but naive runaway Danny latches onto professional hobo Bix Dugan. They stroll through a small town.]

I'm hungry! Let's get something to eat.

That's a good idea.

SAServo [as Bix]

You're catchin' on, kid. That was very insightful of you.

[The two enter a diner.]

JAJoel [as Danny]

We're hungry, but I thought of it! Ya know-- d'ya think that could be my new job, Bix -- decidin' when ta eat?

CACrow [as Bix]

Shut up, Danny.

JAJoel [as Danny]

Oh.
