[Scene: An exterior shot of a boring office building in England]

Oh! "Federated Incorporated Industries Limited".

Modern architecture--efficient and beauty-free.

[Later in the same shot]

Meanwhile, at Stifle-Joy Co....

[Mark English makes a phone call, slowly dialing a rotary phone]

So, how many hours have rotary phones added to movies over the years?

[The Great Vorelli on stage with a volunteer]

Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm going to suggest to this man that his life is in danger...

SAServo [as the Great Vorelli]

Then I'll be right back.

That he may die at any moment.

[The Great Vorelli turns to the volunteer]

CACrow [as the Great Vorelli]

Your life is in danger and you may die at any moment. THANK YOU!

[On stage, ventriloquist dummy Hugo whines about wine]

I want some! Give it to me! I know what wine is! I've had wine before. I want some wine! Why shouldn't I have some wine?

MAMike [as Hugo]

All I want is my fair share! All I want is what's coming to me!

[During Vorelli's act, Hugo gets up and crosses to the refreshment table, where Vorelli is eating ham.]

CACrow [as Hugo]

You think he likes ham? Wait 'til you see me like ham!

[German dancer and former Vorelli assistant Mercedes tells the two reporters about the original Hugo]

MMercedes

He did not move for t'ree months -- just lay there and...looked at the ceiling. Then...he died. He died.

MAMike [as Mark]

Did he live?

[The Great Vorelli holding a knife looking at Hugo in the cage]

Hugo...

MAMike [as the Great Vorelli]

Have you been shaving your legs with this again?

[The Great Vorelli is seducing a woman in direct line of sight of his dummy]

MAMike [as Hugo]

Please cover my cage...

[Mark English (played by William Sylvester) is sleeping]

You know, Kubrick saw this scene and said "We found our Heywood Floyd!"

[Hugo sits in his cage while The Great Vorelli answers the door]

Attica! Attica!

[to Mike] Have you seen Crow?

Oh yeah, he's getting into that whole dorm fantasy thing.

Oh, drunk, abusive and getting all morose about...

[offscreen] DEBBIE!!

Debbie, right; that's it.

[offscreen] Debbie, D-D-D-Debbie, I... urghn! [punches window back into packaging with the shattering of glass heard]

[wincing] Oh, please, say that was a lamp!

Uh, it was probably just a lamp.

[crying] Debbie! Debbie, I need ya, baby! I can't handle it. Debbie, I punched the window in for you, baby. You've gotta take me back, Debbie! Debbie!

He punched in my window, Mike! He carefully unpacked it, then he punched it in!

I did it for Debbie! Let me drive over there! I don't care!

Listen, Crow, you're not drunk, you don't live in a dorm, and you don't know anybody named Debbie.

[sobbing] I don't care! Debbie! Let me go!

[also sobbing] My windoooowww!

[some time later]

There, there, Crow.

Debbie...

Say, have you ever considered a fantasy where you're happy and successful?

I think I like the Debbie one better.

[Pearl and Observer/Brain Guy attempt to liven up a gathering in Roman times with a toga party, before deciding on another approach...]

Pants party!

EEmperor

[as crowd whoops and cheers] These are remarkable, and vastly superior to our own apparel!

[sighs] Ah; that's better.

[later as the two are guests at a gladiator match]

EEmperor

[greeting the crowd] Citizens, if you haven't already noticed- I'm wearing pants.

[The camera cuts to Hugo in the back seat of a car as it drives along.]

[as Hugo] I'm driving with my mind!

[to the other robots] You know, if it weren't for rock n' roll, ventriloquy would've been huge.

[as Vorelli, while the audience claps at the end of a show] Thank you halfway-houses and geriatric wards!

[as Vorelli] Thrill as he doesn't talk and I don't move my lips!

[audience continues applauding] Keep clapping, and he might never get to his act!

[Vorelli leaves the stage with Hugo and his assistant]

[as Hugo] That sucked! Even I didn't believe I was talking!
