[the camera zooms in on Vorelli's face and the color inverts as it focuses on his eyes]

[of Vorelli] A Scotch egg! No, wait; that's his face.

[to the volunteer] You told me that in China, you once saw a man executed in the streets.

The Manchurian Ventriloquist!

I want you to imagine you are in his place.

[sighs] Why so negative?

[as Vorelli continues speaking to the volunteer in excessive detail of his situation] Should we really call this the "Wacky Fun Time Revue"?

AAll

[as crowd] Hooray; more!

[Vorelli snaps his fingers to break the volunteer out of his tense stupor]

[as Vorelli] Hey; pay attention!

[as crowd claps] Ha ha; we love your cruelty!

[On stage, ventriloquist dummy Hugo performs with The Great Vorelli]

Well, Hugo, what are you going to do to entertain the audience tonight?

Anything you say, my dear Vorelli; except that kind of thing.

What do you mean?

Simply that you are laughing while I am talking.

And what's wrong with that?

Oh, it's an old ventriloquist trick; they're all doing it now, it's corny.

Perhaps we can show the audience a variation of it then.

[as Vorelli] Min-wax, Hugo?

[noticing Vorelli drinking a glass of wine] Give me some wine. I want some wine.

A dummy? Drinking wine?

[as Vorelli] Spodie-odie?

Don't be ridiculous!

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?

[as Hugo] All I want is my fair share! All I want is what's coming to me!

You are a dummy, Hugo.

[as the audience claps] The Puppet-Haters' Club will be right back!

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

This time- Hugo- you are going to die.

[as Mercedes] At this point, t'ere were some warning signs...

[as the film ends] Hugo the Dummy was arraigned in Superior Court, County of Los Angeles; in a moment, the results of that trial.
