10 NATHANIEL WEISBURG'S HIDEOUT 10
It is all dark and only extreme close ups of hands,
eyes and mouths. Silk is strapped to a table, he is
hypnotized.
SILK
What do you plan to do with
that, Boss?
NATHANIEL WEISBURG
I plan to test this machine
out and show this city who
really is the leader of their
pitiful world.
SILK
I thought you had to plug it
into...
NATHANIEL WEISBURG
Shush Silk, this is only a
test.
SILK
Right boss.
Nathaniel turns the dial on the front to a setting
called 'Uncanny'
NATHANIEL WEISBURG
This will be most
interesting.
Nathaniel Weisburg turns on the machine.
11 SILK`S FIRST UNCANNY SESSION 11
Silk is standing in a forest, he is all alone but
hears noises coming from the distance. He walks a
few steps and sees something come out from behind
the trees. It is the Wendigo!
SILK
(under his breath)
The Wendigo...
Silk's face goes blank with terror and he turns and
begins to run away, the wendigo moves slowly but
seems to be gaining on him.
12 THE UNCANNY BEEFART AND CHEENKAW 12
Time slows down and Beefart and Cheenkaw are eating
their Chinese food. They are suddenly in a dark
room, and there is nothing but a small table on the
other side of the room from them.
BEEFART
Cheenkaw! What is happening?
CHEENKAW
I have no idea.. I don't know
if we have been transported
somewhere or if or minds have
been invaded.
BEEFART
Never mind that now! Look at
that table!
The table starts moving closer to them.. Very
slowly.
BEEFART (cont'd)
If we don't find a way out of
this, in a few minutes that
table is gonna reach us!
13 THE UNCANNY MARLA 13
Marla is with Professor Hamsworth in a class room
when all the lights go dim and time slows down just
like it did with Beefart & Cheenkaw.
PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH
Marla, something strange is
happening!
MARLA
I can see that..
PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH
Where are we?
They are suddenly in a field with nothing around
them. Professor Hamsworth is wearing a strange
mask.
14 THE UNCANNY BEEFART AND CHEENKAW PART TWO 14
The table is getting closer, Beefart is freaking
out and shooting at it. Cheenkaw is trying to go in
to a trace.
15 SILK AND THE WENDIGO 15
The Wendigo is on top of Silk and they are
struggling, suddenly the wendigo takes a bite out
of Silk's arm.
16 NATHANIEL WEISBURG'S MACHINE IS TURNED OFF 16
Nathaniel Weisburg turns the machine off and you
can see that Silk is on the table with a huge bite
taken out of his arm, he is waking up from the
machine and the hypnotism.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG
Silk, wake up! Come out of
your trance!
(he snaps his fingers
and calls out to
Sylvia, who is also
in a trance)
Sylvia! Would you please
escort Silk to the hospital,
he seems to have accidentally
jabbed himself in the
shoulder with a very sharp
pencil, while writing out a
receipt for a spot light.
SILK
(groggy)
Pencil... spot light...
accident.. I'm such a
clutz...
Sylvia comes over and helps silk off the desk and
they walk away.
SYLVIA
Come along Silk, you have a
nasty cut that needs to be
taken care of.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG
(to himself)
The machine works better than
I ever imagined.
He checks the dials on the machine.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG (cont'd)
However it seems like there
was some spill over and Silk
wasn't the only one affected
in this experiment. A few
more adjustments and the
radius of the machine's
energy will be controlled.
First I will take over the
city, and then the country,
and eventually the whole
world will be under the
control of my machine. Every
man, woman and child will be
flung in to the depths of
their own minds and will be
trap within the house of the
uncanny.
17 AT THE SCHOOL 17
Marla and Professor Hamsworth are back in the
class.
MARLA
I don't know what just
happened, but I didn't like
it.
PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH
So you experienced that as
well... This is alarming,
mass hallucination maybe?
It was so real, the barrier
between what we just
experienced and what we
perceive as reality is far
too thin.
MARLA
I'll see what the guys have
to say about it...
PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH
By guys, you mean those
bumbling fools Beefart and
Cheenkaw?
MARLA
They aren't fools sir. I know
what they say in the papers,
but it's not true.
PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH
I know they are your friends,
and that you fancy yourself a
partner in their strange
little investigations. But
Marla, the outlandish tales
of their exploits are
thoroughly documented. They
are charlatans, using the
public to solve the real
cases for them, and making up
fantastic stories for the
press to make themselves seem
like some kind of super
heros.
MARLA
You're wrong Professor
Hamsworth, They are the most
intelligent people I have
ever met.
Sure their methods are
unorthodox, but they treat
people with respect, whether
the people know it or not.
And as for using the public..
It's not like that at all,
they can see strengths and
weaknesses and they use
gentleness, humour and a
belief in all that is right
to save the world time and
time again. They are true
heros.
PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH
But the insane stories...
It's fiction my dear!
MARLA
I just captured a half Goat
half Man with them.. Last
week we fought a reptilian
squid that arrived on Earth
from the dark side of the
moon. I saw these things with
my own eyes Professor. The
universe is a much bigger
place than this university
campus.. And even bigger than
every book in the library. We
haven't really got the
slightest clue what it is all
really about.
18 BEEFART AND CHEENKAW CAN RELAX 18
The ordeal is over, Beefart and Cheenkaw are on the
floor of their office.
BEEFART
What the hell was that?
CHEENKAW
I have no idea. I was trying to
use my hypnotic powers to pin
point the cause, but there
seemed to be some kind of
psychic barrier preventing me
from getting out of that world.
BEEFART
Do you think it was an attack
directed at us?
CHEENKAW
That's a good question. Why
don't you get on the phone and
see if anyone else has had a
similar experience. I'll go
next door.
BEEFART
Next door? Are you seriously
gonna go ask that guy for help?
CHEENKAW
Well, he is only a few meters
away.. It would be a good
indication if this was only
aimed at us or not.
BEEFART
You are a smart man Cheenkaw.
CHEENKAW
I know, I know...
Beefart gets on the phone and Cheenkaw exits.
19 SILK GETS A TRANSFUSION 19
Silk is in a hospital bed and there is a doctor
with him. Silk is unconscious. A nurse comes in
with a bag of blood.
NURSE
Here it is Doctor, I had to
get it from the blood
archives in the basement! We
only had one bag of it in the
entire hospital.
DOCTOR
His blood type is so rare.. I
have never even heard of it
before.. What the hell is
type BO negative anyway?
NURSE
I don't know, but we are
lucky this guy decided to
donate some.. I hope it still
works.
The doctor is finished setting up the transfusion.
DOCTOR
This poor kid has lost so
much blood, it is a miracle
we had some. When did this
blood come in anyway?
The nurse looks over the sheet.
NURSE
Wow.. This came in 20 years
ago.. Some fellow named Rolf
Tompson.
DOCTOR
Well.. I think this kid will
be okay. I guess this Rolf
Tompson guy is a hero..
Whoever he is.
20 CHEENKAW VISITS DETECTIVE CROWN 20
Cheenkaw is outside Det. Crown's office in the
hallway. His door has his name on it. DETECTIVE
CROWN PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR.
Cheenkaw knocks and then walks right in. Crown is
sitting at a desk and his secretary Babette is
sitting on the desk and looks up. He has a display
case with C-3PO and R2-D2 action figures inside
somewhere in his office.
CHEENKAW
Hey Crown.
DETECTIVE CROWN
Hey Cheenkaw... What the hell
are you doing here? I don't
think your rent is due for a
few more weeks!
CHEENKAW
Serious business I'm afraid.
Did you just have a strange
experience?
Crown looks at him weird.
DETECTIVE CROWN
What kind of strange
experience?
CHEENKAW
For instance, were you
attacked by any office
furniture in the last hour or
so?
DETECTIVE CROWN
Cheenkaw, you're a dick.
CHEENKAW
It's my job Ken. Sorry to
waste your time.
Cheenkaw turns around to leave.
BABETTE
Cheenkaw, wait.
CHEENKAW
Yes Babette? What is it?
BABETTE
A few minutes ago I was
certain I was very small and
in that game mousetrap.. You
know the boardgame from when
we were kids? Yeah.. And this
giant mouse was trying to eat
me.. But all of a sudden I
was back here again. I'm sure
I just nodded off for a
minute.. But it was the most
real dream I ever had.
CHEENKAW
That's fantastic! Crown! Did
you see Babette while this
was happening?
DETECTIVE CROWN
She has been here with me the
whole time. I was doing some
paperwork and she was just
being very quiet over on the
couch. I thought she was
asleep too.. She woke with a
start and came over her a few
minutes ago.
CHEENKAW
So she didn't disappear or
anything?
DETECTIVE CROWN
No! You are an idiot
Cheenkaw.. Get your monster
hunting ass out of my office
and quit harassing poor
Babette!
Cheenkaw Slams the door behind him.
21 THE REALIZATION OF BEEFART AND CHEENKAW 21
Back in Beefart & Cheenkaw's office.
BEEFART
Every single person I have
talked to has had a weird
experience or strange dream
in the last hour, except
about 7. Look, I made a map.
Marla even has something very
weird happen, and she said
her boyfriend is missing.
CHEENKAW
Good job Beefart. Turn on the
radio... This may be bigger
than just us.. For once.
Beefart turns on the radio as they look at the map.
There are red pins all over downtown and the 7
green pins are beyond the radius of the machine's
power.
The radio announcer:
To recap the strange incident that took place
tonight, all over the downtown core people have
reported bizarre hallucinations between 12:34 am
and 12:45 tonight. City officials say that the
strange mass attack on our city has been attributed
to a gas leak downtown, and is now said to be under
control.
BEEFART
Gas leak my ass.
22 SILK HAS A NIGHTMARE IN THE HOSPITAL 22
Silk is laying in his hospital bed and the blood is
dripping away in to his body. The lights go weird
and suddenly Bo-Bo-Baboon-Boy is dancing at the
foot of his bed. Silk is still unconscious.
23 BO-BO AWAKENS IN SPACE 23
In the depth of Space The Spidapple spaceship is on
it's destination to the prison planet with it's
cargo.. Bo-Bo!
As the blood drips into Silk's veins, Bo-Bo awakens
in the ship. He breaks free of the metal bindings
that keep him strapped down and alarms in the ship
go off. A robot voice comes on the intercom
'Attention, Emergency! Alien has woken up from
hibernation and has broken free! Warning! All
security units to the detention area!' A door
slides open and there are 6 apples floating
outside, they are fitted with laser guns and start
shooting at Bo-Bo. He gets knocked back a bit and
grabs a pipe that is on the wall, he rips it off
and smashes down on all the apple people. There is
a shot of the exterior of the ship and the sounds
of screams. Bo-Bo is now in the control room of the
ship. 'Warning! All members of the crew are now
dead!' Switching over all navigation to remaining
life form on board... Scanning brain for new
destination... Scan complete.. New course for Earth
calculated. Captain Larry Johnson now in control.'
The space ship turns around and starts heading for
Earth.
24 SILK LEAVES THE HOSPITAL 24
Silk wakes up and pulls the IV out of his arm. He
looks around and leaves the room.
25 THE MOSQUITO ARRIVES IN CALGARY 25
It is a new day and The Mosquito is walking in to
Calgary.
THE MOSQUITO
First thing to do is to find
some criminals to test out my
new found super powers.
She closes her eyes and she can hear the sound of
the Police radio... 'We need a unit over by the old
bingo hall, there is a 10-34 going down right
now...'
THE MOSQUITO (cont'd)
Seems like as good a place as
any to start my mission of
peace.
She runs off.
26 MARLA AND SILK HAVE AN ARGUMENT ABOUT WORK 26
Marla is in her and Silk's apartment sitting on the
bed when Silk walks in.
MARLA
Where have you been? I have
been trying to call all
night? And.. What happened to
your arm?
SILK
It's nothing.. I think I cut
myself on a pencil. I ended
up at the hospital.. I don't
know where my phone went.
MARLA
You could have used a pay
phone or something.
SILK
Marla.. There was nothing in
my pants.
MARLA
What the hell are you talking
about?
SILK
I mean I had no change in my
pockets... Listen..
I feel like hell, can we talk
about this when I get home
from work?
MARLA
Work? Are you seriously still
gonna go to that strange
place? Whereever, and
whatever it is?
SILK
Of course not, if you knew
the things that.... Yes, I am
going there.. It is of the
utmost importance.
MARLA
I don't know what you are
talking about, but I don't
like it Silk. Did you have a
weird experience last night?
Some kind of weird dream or
something? Everyone else
around here did.
SILK
You were imagining things..
You didn't have any
experience at all. I have to
go.
MARLA
Silk, you are being so weird.
I am gonna get Beefart &
Cheenkaw to check this
mysterious place out tonight
I think.. Do you even have
the address anywhere?
SILK
That would be great! Please
get them.... No. You leave
Beefart & Cheenkaw out of
this.. It is just my job..
It is normal and there is
nothing weird going on at
all. Good day to you Marla.
Good day!
Silk walks out of the room, and marla's Phone
rings.
MARLA
Hello? Oh hi Professor...
What do you mean? I will be
down there right away!
27 THE MOSQUITO SAVES THE DAY 27
There is a thug with a knife harassing a woman and
trying to take her purse near the old bingo hall.
The Mosquito steps on to the scene.
THE MOSQUITO
Hey! Turkey! Why don't you
leave that lady alone?
TURKEY
Why don't you mind your own
business?
THE MOSQUITO
This is my business.. And
I'll take care of it any way
I please.
The Mosquito bolts in there at super speed, knocks
the lady over, grabs her purse and throws it at
her. The Mosquito then kicks the Turkey in the face
and he falls over, the knife gets flung up in the
air and The Mosquito catches it. She comes at the
man with his own knife, and he backs away on the
ground.
THE MOSQUITO (cont'd)
I wonder if you would have
actually cut that woman if
she didn't give you her
purse?
I'm glad she resisted you for
so long. That woman is a
hero! And here you are trying
to scare the heck out of her.
I don't like you one bit.
The Mosquito shoots a blast of electricity at the
jerk, he convulses and passes out. The Mosquito
looks back at the lady.
THE MOSQUITO (cont'd)
Tell them you were rescued by
The Mosquito.
She runs off, and as soon as she does, the chief of
police arrives on the scene.
THE CHIEF
What happened here?
THE LADY
It was.. The Mosquito!
28 SILK HAS VISIONS! 28
Silk is walking down the street when all of a
sudden his looks as though he is getting a
headache.. He stops, holding his head and closing
his eyes.. Suddenly he seems like he is in pain.
Images flash in his mind.. Scenes that only Rolf
Tompson could have ever seen. In his head he sees
and hears Rolf Tompson.
ROLF TOMPSON
You have brought my blood
line back to being and now he
will hunt you down until the
end of time! There is no
escape Silk!
He quickly snaps out of it and continues on his
way.
29 PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH HAS URGENT NEWS 29
Marla is walking up to one of the buildings in the
University campus and Professor Hamsworth runs up
to her.
PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH
Marla! Marla! I'm glad you
got here so quickly...
MARLA
What is this big news you
have?
PROFESSOR HAMSWORTH
Well, it's a.. Well.. I
better just show you the
pictures.
MARLA
Alright...
They walk off towards a building.
30 SILK ARRIVES FOR WORK 30
Silk walks up to a door on the side of a building,
there is a confusing looking machine there, he puts
his face in front of it. 'Facial recognition pass -
please enter'
Silk goes through the door. Inside he is greeted by
Nathaniel Weisburg.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG
Silk! I will need you to help
me with the final
preparations for the machine
now.
Silk looks confused, and seems to be coming out of
his hypnotic state somewhat.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG (cont'd)
It would seem you need a
refresher of my hypnotic mind
control. Very well.
Nathaniel Weisburg places his hand on Silk's face
like a vulcan mind meld and looks deeply in to his
eyes.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG (cont'd)
Your mind belongs to me Silk.
You will forget everything
that happens in this
building, and obey my every
command. You will obey me..
You will obey me!
Silk looks like that did the trick.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG (cont'd)
Now. We need to prepare the
machine for the final stage
of my diabolical plan.
Sylvia!
Nathaniel snaps his fingers and Sylvia comes
running over.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG (cont'd)
Now. You will both go
retrieve for me the legendary
baseball diamond. It resides
in the museum on the
university campus. There must
be no mistakes. My broadcast
is in exactly 2 hours, you
must return before that. Is
everything understood?
SILK
SYLVIA
Yes Master.
They both turn around and leave.
NATHANIEL WEISBURG
Excellent.. My plan is almost
at a total fruition. Soon the
whole world will be trapped
in the house of the uncanny.
May god have mercy on their
souls.
