Ricky and all the ship’s NE’s had been rehersing for weeks and now it was time to put on a show.

The lights dimmed in the lounge, and on the stage fog machines came to life and filled the stage. A foggy mist started to slowly roll down from the ceiling creating a kind of curtain. Suddenly a projection of giant red lips appeared on the screen of misty fog.

The lips then began to speak and sing.

Michael Rennie was ill
The day the earth stood still
But he told us where we stand
And Flash Gordon was there
In silver underwear
Claude Rains was the Invisible Man;
Then something went wrong
For Fay Wray and King Kong
They got caught in a celluloidjam
Then at a deadly pace
It came from outer space
And this is how the message ran.

I knew Leo G. Carrol Was over a barrel
When tarantula took to the hills
And I really got hot, When I saw Jeanette Scott
Fight a Triffid that spits poison and kills
Dana Andrews said prunes Gave him the runes
And passing them used lots of skills
But when worlds collide
Said George Pal to his bride
I’m going to give you some terrible thrills

The lips began to fade and the misty foggy screen began to desolve along with the lips. Behind the misty fog emerged a wedding party exiting a church.

The young married couple, RALPH and BETTY HAPSCHATT, APPEARS followed by a crowd of friends and well-wishers throwing confetti and shouting excitedly.

Robert “Ducky” Thompson

BRAD MAJORS, a young, slightly awkward clean-cut American in
his mid-twenties, comes over to congratulate RALPH. BRAD and
RALPH shake hands.
2.
BRAD
Hey Ralph.

RALPH
Well I guess we really did it, huh?

BRAD
I don’t think there’s any doubt about that - You and Betty have been almost inseparable since you met in Doctor Scott’s refresher courses.

RALPH
Well to tell you the truth Brad, that was the only reason I showed up in the first place.

BETTY
Okay you guys… this is it. Are you ready?

RALPH
Hey Brad, Betty’s going to throw her bouquet.

BETTY, the bride, throws the bouquet.
JANET catches it. She squeals with delight.

JANET
I’ve got it. I’ve got it.
The GUESTS cheer.

RALPH
Hey big fella, looks like it could be your turn next, eh?

BRAD
Who knows?

RALPH
So long - see you Brad.

A cardboard car pulls INTO SCENE.

RALPH
We’d better get going now Betty. Come on. Hop in.

As Betty is helped into the car by the chauffeur, the GUESTS
begin to chant:

GUESTS
(chanting)
Hapschatt, Hapschatt.. Rah, rah,
rah.

RALPH
See you, Brad.

A board in the background reads: “BE JUST AND FEAR NOT.”

The GUESTS run after the car, waving and taking pictures.

JANET and BRAD linger outside the church. So does a strange

FAMILY: An old man with a pitchfork and his wife and daughter. They resemble the Quaker family in “American Gothic,” a painting. The MOTHER (MAGENTA) and FATHER RIFF RAFF) stand outside the church doors. Their DAUGHTER (COLUMBIA) goes inside. The FAMILY, and the MINISTER (FRANK N. FORTER), and the GUESTS
all resemble characters we shall meet later at the Frank N. Furter place.

BRAD waves a last wave.
