Everyone ready for the gig? :)

(Mike just nods.)

Peter: I'm ready! :)

Micky: I'm ready, and wide awake now! :D ;)

Davy: I am, too, mates. :)

(We open at the Vincent Van Go-Go set from "Spy Who Came In From the Cool" and "Your Friendly Neighborhood Kidnappers." Mike, Peter, Davy, and Micky set up their instruments as a jukebox plays "Town Without Pity." A few kids dance, but most sit with their friends or dates, sipping drinks or eating.)

Mike: Don't exactly look enthusiastic out there.

Peter: (Tunes his bass) I'm sure they will be when they hear our music! :D

Micky: As much as I like this song, it doesn't exact make you wanna get up and dance.

Mike: (Tunes Black Beauty) You guys know your songs?

Peter: (Beams) Of course, we do! :D

Micky: Better believe it.

Mike: (The song ends; the announcer comes onstage) Ok, fellas, here we go.

Peter: Wait, where's Davy?

Mike: Look for the closest thing in a skirt. :p

Micky: I JUST saw him! :P

Peter: (Points) There he is!

Davy: *comes running over from the direction of the bathroom* Sorry, mates, had to run in the men's room first.

Micky: Men's room? Dont'cha mean the little boys' room? ;)

Davy: Real funny, Mick. :P

Mike: Because it's next to the girl's room, where girls enter and exit and you can stop them and chat? (Smacks Micky) :p

Micky: Hey! I'm being attacked from all sides here! :P ;)

Mike: (Looks at Micky) You, lay off Davy. (Looks at Davy) You, keep your hormones in check until AFTER we're finished. :p

*Both guys nod, then shoot each other dirty looks.*

Mike: (Rolls his eyes as the announcer comes on) What am I gettin' myself into, Lord? :p

Announcer: (Takes a microphone) Hey there, all you guys and gals! We're here to showcase a brand-new band that's never been seen anywhere else...the Monkeys! :D

Peter: Monkeys?

Mike: (Shrugs) Sounds better than the Creeps. (Looks at Micky as he pulls off the cover of his drum kit...to reveal "MonkEES," spelled with two "ee"s, taped to his drum) Micky! :p

Peter: (As the applause dies down) Hey, Mick, that's sorta cool! :D

Micky: *waggles his eyebrows* I know. ;)

Davy: 'E did that on purpose. :P

Mike: (Recovering nicely from his surprise over Micky's respelling; turns to the crowd) Uh, yeah, hi folks. We're the Monkees. I'm Mike (indicates himself), that's Peter (Peter blushes and waves), that's Davy (he puts out his arms, drinking in the adulation...and the admiring feminine eyes), and that's Micky (Micky waves wildly, a big grin on his face). We'd like to play a few songs for you. Feel free to dance along, or whatever. (Nods at the others) Ok, fellas, on my count. One, and a two, and...

(And we launch into our next video, "Let's Dance On." Everyone does, indeed, get up to dance as the Monkees play. The camera occasionally cuts back to the Monkees onstage, revealing that it's the later footage of the guys from the second, aired pilot, complete with Davy's longer haircut and Mike with his blond guitar.)

(The guys join the dancers on the floor. Peter blushes when two pretty girls try to dance with him and eventually escapes. :">)

*Davy dances with several girls.* ;)

*Micky does every dance known to man.* ;)

(Mike sits off to one side, stealing drinks from passing waitresses and ignoring several offers from young ladies to dance. Peter joins Mike, still blushing. He also appropriates a drink.)

*Micky and Davy continue to dance, Davy making sure he gets to every girl in the room.* ;)

(Mike and Peter stand by the jukebox. Peter smacks it and shakes it, trying to get it to play a song. Mike finally hands him a quarter. He happily plunks it in the box while Mike rolls his eyes.)

(Peter and a girl seem to run into each other's arms...but the girl goes running out the door, and keeps going. Peter just says "darn!" :p ;) )

*Davy and one girl slow dance, with Davy holding her close, barely moving.* ;)

*Meanwhile, Micky's been doing the jitterbug, daring others to keep up with him.* ;)

(Mike taps Davy on the shoulder, pointing to the very big, very angry guy behind him who doesn't seem to enjoy sharing his girl. Mike whistles and moves quickly away, not wanting to be damaged. :o ;) )

*Davy grins and moves to another girl. He makes sure she doesn't have a date first this time.* ;)

(Micky grabs Mike and pulls him into the jitterbug. We actually get a full-company jitterbug at one point, Mike rather awkwardly. As the group moves away and breaks up, Peter is still seen jumping up and down. Mike just groans and puts his hand on Peter's shoulders...which makes them BOTH go up and down. The kids all think this is a new dance, and THEY start jumping up and down. :D)

*Micky goes through the crowd on a pogo stick.* ;) :D

(Mike finally hops Peter back over to the stage, where they both pick up their guitars as the music runs down, Peter still jumping slightly.)

*Micky crashes his pogo sticks, disappearing momentarily behind the stage. He pops back up, sliding behind the drum kit.*

*Davy blows kisses to girls as he backs his way to the stage.*

(Mike finally pulls him back onstage as the song ends. :p)

Mike: Ok, ya'll havin' fun? (The crowd cheers)

Peter: (Looks at the others) This might not be so bad! :)

Mike: (Looks at the guys) Shall we do another one? ;)

Peter: I could do this all night! :D

(The crowd cheers.)

Micky: Come on people, we can't hear you! ;)

(The crowd stomps their feet and yells and whistles. :D)

Micky: We still can't hear you! ;)

*Davy goes over to Micky and pops the plugs out of his ears.* :)

(The noise shakes the Vincent Van-Go-Go. :D)

(Peter almost drops his guitar, he's so scared. Mike just shrugs, a little crooked smile on his face. ;) )

Mike: Hey, not bad. I think they didn't hear you in Idaho. ;)

Peter: I guess you guys ARE ready for more! :)

Mike: Ok, we're gonna slow it down right now. Our own Davy Jones is gonna sing somethin' new from some buddies of ours, "I Wanna Be Free." (Nods) And thanks for the reception. We weren't sure how we were gonna be accepted. (Grins again) Now we know. ;)

Peter: And we're sure glad to know, because we love to play music for you! :D

Mike: Ok, enough with the mush. (Nods at Davy) Dave, you're on. Just watch where you put that rovin' eye.

Davy: *grins* Okay, mate. *starts the lovely ballad, just singing it to the sea of girls in the crowd*

(Mike sighs, shakes his head, and plays the guitar, lost in thought. Peter grins his city-lighting smile, happy to be do the one thing he's always wanted to do - play in a band, for an audience. :) )

*Micky nods, keeping time with the song, tapping the cymbals with his sticks.* :)

(We finally fade out, as the screen wavers...and we see Davy in 1972, in his wedding tuxedo, singing with the guys on the gazebo in the garden. The other three are behind him, also in their wedding outfit. The rest of the wedding party and guests sit in the garden, talk, or slow-dance. The crowd claps for the boys as the song ends. They bow and head off the gazebo...or drag Davy and Micky off.)

Mike: Ok, Dave, you and Mick gotta get ready. The ceremony's gonna begin shortly.

Micky: *salutes* Yessir! *wraps an arm around Davy* C'mon, m'boy, we gotsta getcha hitched! ;) :D

*Davy rolls his eyes, but he's grinning.*

Mike: (Puts a hand on Davy's shoulder) Just try not to faint, ok? We need you for the British tour. ;)

Peter: After everything we've been through, I'm sure he can handle it! :)

Davy: I can 'andle it! *straightens his collar*

Micky: *snorts* Famous last words. ;)

Mike: (Laughs) You guys haven't changed much. Just don't kill each other out there, ok? I don't think Daph would appreciate blood on her wedding gown.

Davy: Nah, no killin' today! ;)

Peter: (Smiles) Peace, ok? A wedding isn't a competition, and you can't blow it up. :) ;)

Micky: Yeah, maybe later. ;)

Mike: I'll bet they could, Pete. ;)

Davy: Don't give 'im ideas! ;) :P

Micky: Please. Like I haven't already considered my options. ;)

Peter: (Wails) See what you did, Mike? :o

Mike: I'm sure they ain't takin' me seriously. (Gives them a look that indicates they'd BETTER not be ;) :p)

Emma: (Runs up to the guys) Where's the boys? We're about ready to begin!

Micky: Ready, Dave?

Davy: *nods* Ready, mate.

Mike: Tell 'em to start, Em. We're ready here.

Emma: Great! (Pulls back in)

Mike: Well, come on, Pete, let's get the music goin'.

Peter: (Nods) I have all the music planned! :)

Mike: Good luck, Dave. ;)

Davy: Thanks!

Peter: (Hugs Davy) I just can't believe we've come this far! We're ALL married now! :((

Mike: Pete, don't get his tux wet. :p

Micky: *pushes Peter gently away* We don't need the groom sopping wet. Let’s wait until after the ceremony, then I'll push him in the pool or something. ;)

Davy: You really are a one-of-a-kind best friend, Mick, you know that? ;)

Micky: Aw... :D

*Davy shakes his head.* ;)

(Mike and Peter just laugh and shake their heads as they head off to the organ to one side of the area. Mike pulls out his guitar, and we get a very nice guitar-and-organ rendition of "Here Comes the Bride" as the audience takes it's seats and Davy and Micky stand at the podium, next to the priest.)

("Here Comes the Bride" continues, now sans Mike's guitar as he's joined Emma and Lauren in their seats. Shelly, Katie, and Chrissy come first, all in pretty white and pink swiss-dotted dresses and white Mary-Janes. Dolly the Cat has a pink ribbon and is on Chrissy’s shoulder. The two little girls have a single pink rose. Katie immediately runs to her parents the moment she enters. :D)

(Little Mick comes in next, in a little white suit, carrying the ring on a pink pillow and grinning ear-to-ear. :D)

(We're followed by the remaining three Abbies, all in white dresses with pink trim and white heels, carrying small bouquets of pink roses. This is followed by Daphne in a pink-and-white swiss-dotted wedding gown, simple and loose enough to hide her now slightly-showing pregnancy. She carries a huge bouquet of white and pink roses, and has a swiss-dotted veil. Her father, a tall, handsome man with short black hair, a dark complexion, and hazel eyes like his daughter, is on her arm. He turns her over to Davy as she gives him a small kiss on his cheek. He wipes a tear from his eye and joins the rest of the crowd in the seats.)

(We see the vows. Davy finally kisses Daphne. Everyone claps. Peter bawls into Valerie's arms. Chrissy holds Jordan in a little white jumper. Mike leans back with a small smile. Emma puts her arm around him. Katie waves her little pink rosebud. The Abbies and Martians hoot, cheer, and whistle. :D ;) )

*Micky waves his arms around, cheering, letting loose wolf howls, whistles, and any other "appropriate" noise possible.* ;) :D

(Lauren hugs the twins, who cheer happily. :) )

(Nyles falls off his seat, snoring and hugging a bottle of champagne. ;) I-) )

*Jack glances down at Nyles on the floor, shaking his head.* ;)

(The camera fades out on the happy couple as they continue with their kiss behind Daphne's veil, to the strains of "I Wanna Be Free." :X ;) )
