Animation Source Forums

Call me nuts but I think this could be a funny idea. This is similar to the Job Interviews, but is like a comedy series. I star alongside a Balto Source member. This next episode shows me and Sarafina Fanatic getting locked in our neighbour's bathroom by Steet. The system works like this, the story is set in the London suburbs, just a couple of streets from the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation). The series shows me and a member getting into sticky situations with Doby, Dingo, Steet and Togo because they all have jobs of what they are good at.

STEET- Landlord. He is in charge of my flat, at the moment he has nicked my food because I don't pay the rent! The swine!
TOGO - In charge of a pizza cafe across the road from the BBC. He has a reputation of causing food poisonings with his dodgy pizzas.
DOBY - Weatherwoman. She's sick of her job and wants to be an artist but loves having chats with Dingo.
DINGO - TV Star. Stars in a certain interview series. I'm stone jealous of him and he is also in charge of CNN in America.

EPISODE ONE - THE TROUBLES OF THE BATHROOM AND THE BBC

FLAT HALLWAY - MORNING

Sarafina is cleaning up outside his flat. Steet comes up the stairs, he looks pleased but worried at the same time.

SARAFINA: Lo, Steet. What's wrong?
STEET: Seen Zorro?
SARAFINA: (Confused) Not the sort of person you'd want to see at the moment, I'm afraid. (Carries on cleaning, Steet seems curious)
STEET: Why, what's the matter with her?
SARAFINA: Something beginning with R.
STEET: For crying out loud! She can get out if she's doing something... She is doing something, isn't she?
SARAFINA: Do you wonder why I'm cleaning all of a sudden? (Steet walks further up the hall and sniffs the air. He coughs)
STEET: Ugh! What's that smell?
SARAFINA: Togo's pizzas. Old Zorro's been ordering take-away!
STEET: This'll cost her a fortune in cleaning bills! (He knocks on Zorro's door) ZORRO! I want that rent, now!
ZORRO: (From behind the door) Yes, I'm here! Your money isn't, though! (Sarafina rolls his eyes)
STEET: I wanna tell you something! (Zorro opens the door) I'm inviting some new nieghbours here today and I don't want any trouble or funny business!
ZORRO: With you around! They'll be gone in less then five seconds!
STEET: Better five with me then one with you! (Doby appears with Togo)
DOBY: What's going on?
ZORRO: New neighbours!
SARAFINA: Blurt it out, Zorro!
STEET: (Grabbing Zorro) She just has!
TOGO: Neighbours, eh? I might give them a bit of my New York Pizza!
DOBY: Togo, they want a flat! Not a death penelty! (Togo looks angry but Steet intervenes)
STEET: There'll be no pizza because no-one will be here!
ALL: WHAT!?
ZORRO: You're crazy!
DOBY: Yeah, we all gotta evacuate our flats just becuse some neighbours are coming!
TOGO: You've got work anyway! My pizza cafe's closed on a Sunday!
DOBY: I've called in sick, I've got a dodgy bowel!
ZORRO: Ugh!
SARAFINA: Looks like we're stuck here then! (He folds his arms to prove his point)
STEET: I don't think so! (He brings out a five pound note and hands it to Doby) Maybe poor Doby can go and see her fellow Americans perform in the movies!
DOBY: Would I ever? (Grabs the note and runs off!)
TOGO: I'm not budging! (Steet grabs a ten pound note)
STEET: I'm certain Doby'll get bored by herself!
TOGO: Where's my Stars and Stripes? (Grabs the note and runs after Doby, Zorro and Sarafina fold our arms)
SARAFINA: Oh, well! We're not going, Zorro! Not even for fifteen!
ZORRO: No way! (Grins) Throw in twenty and I'll be more flexable! (Sarafina looks angry! Steet does too)
STEET: I'm out of money and I'm out of patiance! But I have plans for you two! (He grabs them by the scuffs of the necks and throws them in the new flat's bathroom. He locks the door) That'll hold them two! Now, for the new tenants!

CUT TO: BATHROOM. MORNING

Zorro is in the bathtub while Sarafina looks glum on the toilet.

ZORRO: This is nice, isn't it?
SARAFINA: Sure is!
ZORRO: Could do with that twenty now!
SARAFINA: I wanna go to the toilet too!
ZORRO: (Evilly) Oh, really? (Turns on the tap)
SARAFINA: Zorrroooo! (Clutches her bowels!)
ZORRO: Oh, drat! I wanna go too!
SARAFINA: Thanks a lot! (Gets the newspaper) United won again, I see!
ZORRO: What are you doing?
SARAFINA: Reading the paper for the rest of the show.
ZORRO: What about our viewers?
SARAFINA: They can have it when I'm finished!
ZORRO: Idiot! (Sarafina stares at her) Now, what do you do when we're in a boring movie?
SARAFINA: Get candy with loud wrappers and ruin the film for everyone!
ZORRO: No! We escape, through a series of wide tunnels throughout the city which well eventually led us to our flat via the air conditioning entrance on the ceiling! (They look up and see the lid in question and grin slyly)

CUT TO: AIR VENT, MORNING

Sarafina grunts and climbs into the wide tunnel. He looks around and calls down into the bathroom.

SARAFINA: Hurry up, Zorro
ZORRO: In case it's escaped your attention, I'm only a couple of metres tall! Now throw down a rope and pull me up! (Sarafina looks around with a 'duh!' look on his face)
SARAFINA: I haven't got a rope!
ZORRO: Well, take your pants off then!
SARAFINA: (Laughs) I'm not taking my pants off!
ZORRO: Oh come on! Not only will it help us out of our problem but it'll also create a comic effect... Depending on the type of underpants you put on this morning, of course!
SARAFINA: (Growling) Oh, I'm so having a word with my agent about this! (Takes off trousers and Zorro grabs them! They rip. Zorro sniggers as she's pulled up) Oh, thank you, Zorro! Next time you have an idea like that! Make sure I'm not around when you tell me! (He moves down the tunnel)
ZORRO: Where are you going?
SARAFINA: To find a wardrobe department, get a new pair of pants!
ZORRO: You're going to wrong way!
SARAFINA: How do you know?
ZORRO: I'm British, I have a nose for these sort of things!
SARAFINA: The only thing you've got a nose for is trouble!
ZORRO: Did anyone ever tell you that you have nice legs?
SARAFINA: No, why?
ZORRO: I'm not surprised! (Laughs and runs down another tunnel, Sarafina groans and goes after her)

Part 2 coming up soon....

Very amusing, I can't wait for part 2.

MEANWHILE...

Steet is showing Dingo around, he's wearing sunglasses and looks closely around the new flat.

STEET: I hope this fits your needs, Dingo.
DINGO: Apperance is fine and it seems comfortable but is it... Quiet?
STEET: Oooh! Quiet as a mouse, sir! (Suddenly)
ZORRO: Oooooh! OW! (There's rubbling above as Sarafina and Zorro move through a very thin tunnel, Dingo looks confused and angry)
STEET: (Nervously) That was the mouse! (Dingo growls and marches out the door) Oh, well! I'll have better luck next time! Call me crazy, but I'm certain that sounded like Zorro!

CUT TO: AIR VENT, AN HOUR LATER

Sarafina and Zorro appear, Sarafina seems out of breath.

SARAFINA: This is hopeless, Zorro. We must have gone for miles!
ZORRO: We'll get out somewhere. (She hears voices) Shh! Listen!
(They're above the BBC. Micheal Fish is reading the weather)
FISH: And there are going to be some right bucketfuls over north-west Scotland but some bright suns over eastern England. (Points to a bucket icon and a sun icon! Zorro and Sarafina listen but the tunnel starts to shake under them. They stare at each other)
BOTH: Uh-oh! (CRASH! The tunnel falls and so do the two friends)
FISH: In truth, it'll be raining cats and dogs! (Zorro and Sarafina fall onto the scene)
ZORRO: And coyotes! (Laughs! But a guard appears and points at them)
GUARD: Oi! (Zorro and Sarafina see him running towards them)
ZORRO: Oo-er! Shake a leg, Sarafina! (Sarafina shakes his leg, picks up Zorro and runs! They run past Trevor McDonald who is reading the sport)
TREVOR: Now for the sport!
ZORRO: (Off-screen) United won!
TREVOR: Oh! Thanks!
GUARD: Stop that lion and the talking squirrel!

CUT TO: HOLBY CITY SCENE, SOME TIME LATER

The guard nearly crashes into a doctor but carries on running. Zorro's head pops up from a laundry basket while Sarafina is hiding under a stretcher cover.

ZORRO: Phew! I don't think I can run anymore!
SARAFINA: What do you mean? You haven't done anything, I've been carrying you!
ZORRO: Exactly! At least that proves this isn't my fault!
SARAFINA: Oh, ha ha! (Doctor appears and grabs the stretcher, taking Sarafina with it!) ARRGGHH! (Holby City theme plays)
ZORRO: (Singing) Just scream if you want to go faster, baby!

CUT TO: OPERATING ROOM, SOME TIME LATER

Sarafina is shaking on the table, Zorro appears. She is dressed in surgical clothes.

ZORRO: Don't worry, I'll get us out of this soon. In a meantime you're just going to have to be patient! (Sniggers but Sarafina whimpers)
SARAFINA: I'm going to kill you, Zorro!
ZORRO: Quick, hide! Someone's coming! (A doctor comes in, he looks drunk but the nurse is in top condition. Sarafina looks hopeful for a second but the nurse walks into the next room!) Don't worry, Sarafina! I'll look after you!
SARAFINA: (Mutters prayers)
DOCTOR: Eww! What a mug, can't do anything for that! (Sprays laughing gas into his face) Cor! Well, I think we'd better opearate straight away! I haven't lost a patient yet... Well, only the odd bit! (Picks up a saw! Sarafina whimpers and stands up)
SARAFINA: Well, this is one patient you're really going to lose! C'mon, Zorro! (Grabs Zorro and the guard appears and runs after them)

CUT TO: CHANGING ROOM, SOME TIME LATER

The guard walks in, we hear Zorro and Sarafina talking.

ZORRO: I'm telling you! It's the perfect outfit!
SARAFINA: No way, Zorro!
GUARD: Everything alright in there?
SARAFINA: (Lady's voice) Yeah!
GUARD: You haven't seen an over-grown squirrel and a lion walk past here, have you?
ZORRO: SQUIRREL? (Punches door!)
SARAFINA: (His hand and Zorro's appear, pointing in opposite directions, he says with a man voice) They went that way! Now get lost! (Lady's voice) I mean, go away! (The guard walks away)

CUT TO: AIR VENT, AN HOUR LATER

Zorro is still in surgical clothes and walks down the tunnel, Sarafina is behind him but he's in the shadows.

ZORRO: :groans: Stop being a wimp, Sarafina!
SARAFINA: (Coming out of the shadows! He's dressed as a woman!) Sheesh, Zorro!
ZORRO: Oooh, must be murder in those heels! (Sarafina comes abruptly forwards!)
SARAFINA: Don't say another word, not another word! Or so help me, I'll make you wish you'd never been born!
ZORRO: Not very ladylike, is it? Pink is really your colour, by the way! (Sarafina hits her with his handbag and looks at the camera)
SARAFINA: Mum, if you're watching! I'm really, really sorry! (Grabs Zorro and forces her forward. They come to the bathroom vent again and find Steet looking around for them)
ZORRO: Looks like Steet was going to let us out after all!
SARAFINA: Yeah! I wonder if he had any luck with the new tenant. (They climb into the bath, Steet looks shocked at the clothes they are wearing)
ZORRO: Erm, we sorta went... Walkabout! How did it go?
STEET: I was going to ask you the same question! Why are you dressed as a doctor? Sarafina, why are you dressed as a woman?
ZORRO: Fancy dress party at the BBC!
SARAFINA: (Walking past Steet) Yeah we played Muscial Sets with a very nice security guard! (Zorro sniggers while Steet looks confused)
