Everyone ready to rescue Mike and Davy and get out of here?

(Mike nods.)

Peter: Please! :p

Micky: Definitely ready! :P

Davy: Rescue? :P

(We open back in the garden, as we hear "As We Go Along." Sheila and Davy dance slowly to the music, sometimes nibbling on each other's ear...and other places. We see others in various states of undress doing the same thing around the garden. Charlotte comes in, her face pensive, as the song finishes. She finds Davy and Sheila sitting on a bench with a bucket of ice and wine.)

Charlotte: Oh. (Sighs) Hello, Milady. (Nods) Davy.

Sheila: Hello, Charlotte.

Charlotte: Milady, there's something I need to ask you. I want Davy to hear it, too.

Sheila: And what's that, dear?

Charlotte: Milady, why are we here? I love that we're getting to meet the Monkees. It's one of the biggest thrills of my life! (Smiles dreamily) I saw another one upstairs, the blond who was always really dumb, Peter. He's so sweet. He has the sweetest brown eyes... (Shakes her head) Anyway, he and his friend said that (gulps and goes on) that you and Master are bad people, and that we should leave.

Sheila: *dark look* I'm afraid they’re mistaken. We're just trying to run a business here.

Charlotte: Yes, but some of the men seem so...strange. Like they're zombies out of "Night Of The Living Dead" or something! I mean, it's not that they aren't great in bed, but they're so docile.

Davy: They're just enjoying their time here, that's all, luv.

Charlotte: But their eyes...it's like...like...(looks into Davy's now-black, blank eyes)...like yours. There's nothing there.

Davy: But I'm just fine, luv.

Sheila: See, my dear? You're worrying about nothing.

Charlotte: (Pulls back) I don't think I am. I think there's something wrong.

Sheila: *puts an arm around Charlotte* I'm telling you, there's absolutely nothing wrong 'ere.

Charlotte: Milady, Peter Tork told me...

Sheila: My dear, you know too much. *gives Davy a short nod*

*Davy returns the nod.*

Charlotte: (Tries to pull away) Milady, what's going on?

Sheila: Davy...

Davy: *walks up to Charlotte, standing on the opposite side from Sheila* I'm afraid you now need to be taught a lesson.

Charlotte: What? Davy, what are you doing? I'm one of your biggest fans!

Davy: It doesn’t mattah, luv. *rubs her temples*

Charlotte: What... (but she finally collapses in his arms, panting)

Sheila: Now, my Lord, what shall we do with her?

Davy: I think she'd make an adorable animal.

Charlotte: I'd...wha? :o

Sheila: She's all yours, Lord of the Manor.

Davy: Thank you, Milady. *concentrates on Charlotte; a black light envelopes her; when it clears, he holds a bunny rabbit in both hands*

(The bunny wriggles, it's eyes wide.)

Davy: *uses two fingers to rub the bunny's head, muddling her* Now, now, luv, just clam yourself.

(The bunny finally snuggles into Davy's chest, panting.)

Davy: Much bettah, luv.

*Alex appears in a black light, fuming.*

Sheila: (Raises an eyebrow) What's wrong with you, luv? You look like someone stole your favorite toy.

Alex: That's because someone DID! The Mother is gone, and so is the Scholar.

Sheila: WHAT? Ho... (growls) The Bard and the Aristocrat are loose. Charlotte just told us she encountered them. They must have found the Scholar and the Mother and rescued them. (Louder growl; the bunny jumps a bit) DAMN IT! I thought the nightman took care of them in the garden!

Alex: We need to stop them.

Sheila: And did anyone ever find the Huntress?

Alex: Haven't seen her for a while. I don't know...

Sheila: This was really careless of us. All these souls, and we let three of the Guardians wander around unattended?

(The bunny squirms and squeaks a bit in Davy's arms.

Sheila: (Sighs) We do have bait, however. (Looks at Davy and Alex) Please tell me we still have the White Knight!

Alex: *nods* The Lord and I just left him.

Sheila: (Turns to Davy) Then trapping all of them will be a snap.

*Davy nods, smirking.*

Sheila: Come along, boys. We have work to do.

Alex: Right.

Davy: Yes, Milady.

(Cut to the dining room. It's a lovely room, with chandeliers and mirrors on the ceiling. Slaves and demons bustle around, setting up tables. Peter and Valerie look puzzled.)

Valerie: I don't understand it.

Peter: (Wails) The demons' cave was right here! I know it was!

Lauren: Demon's cave?

Valerie: We saw demons in a cage, eating some kind of roast monster and throwing slaves around!

Lauren: *makes a face* Lovely. *shrugs* I would've preferred to see that than what I had to endure.

Peter: It must be this dimension thing.

Valerie: (Nods) Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. It seems to come and go.

Demon 1: (Points to Lauren) Isn't that Master's special favorite?

Demon 2: (Growls) And red-hair lady and yellow-hair man who poke us and knock us around!

Lauren: More demons. :P

Valerie: I'm getting really sick of seeing these guys. I hope we have better flunkies next month.

Peter: (Nervous) Um, hi guys! We're just passing through, so if you don't mind...we'd like to leave.

Demon 2: GET THEM!

Peter: Or not.

("Auntie's Municipal Court" begins as Peter wildly shoots at the demons. They grab a table and hold it as a shield.)

*Lauren tries to imagine in her weapon, but she winds up empty-handed. Apparently, her powers are still hazy from earlier. She snaps her fingers in an "oh darn" motion and decides to just use what's around her. She grabs a set of curtains and pulls them off the rod, landing them on two demons. the demons squirm underneath.*

Peter: (Goes to a table; over the music) Val, I've always wanted to do this. (Grins and grabs the ends of the tablecloth; he pulls it off fast, taking most of the china and silverware, but leaving the vase of flowers) The flowers are still standing!

(Valerie chases after a demon. The demon jumps on a table. She tries to go after him, but he jumps off the table...and she slices the table in half with her sword.)

*Lauren finds the release for a chandelier and lets it drop right onto three demons!*

(The demons roll across the floor and out the door Valerie and Peter open. As they exit, Micky, Daphne, and Emma enter.)

(Emma sits down at a table. Two demons take her order, even as we can see Valerie, Daphne, Lauren, and Peter chasing and throwing demons around in the background.)

(Peter chases demons around, shooting the ones in the air.)

*Micky and Lauren run to each other and hug and kiss. When the separate, they make their weapons appear, and Micky has regained the use of his hands! They holler and run off, Micky swinging his dagger and Lauren holding her staff like a lance!*

(A demon with a towel on his arm delivers orange juice pink champagne on ice, and a pile of peanut butter sandwiches to Emma. She thanks the demon and devours the sandwiches hungrily, even as Valerie jumps the table, chasing a demon, and arrows fly over her head.)

(Lauren jumps over the table this time, spilling Emma's orange juice. Emma makes a face and orders another one.)

(Valerie and Peter grab a bunch of tablecloths. They tie a bunch of demons to a table, Peter pinning the cloths with his arrows.)

*Lauren and Micky hold an end of rope and run around in circles in opposite directions When they stop, they've rounded up 5 demons.*

(Emma burps, wipes her lips with a napkin, and hands it to the demon waiter...who is knocked out by Valerie, who hits him over the head with her sword. The whole stack of peanut butter sandwiches is gone.)

Valerie: Are you finished, Em? (Rolls her eyes)

Emma: Yes, I'm finished. (Looks at Micky and Daphne) Thanks, guys. I was soooo hungry! I needed this. Micky: You're welcome.

Peter: Guys! We found you! I'm so glad you're safe! (Grabs Micky and hugs him, sobbing)

Micky: Pete...can't breathe!

Peter: (Lets Micky go) Oops, sorry Mick! I'm just glad we've found everyone.

Valerie: Where have you been? We've searched this whole hotel for you!

Daphne: I've been wandering around the whole time looking for everyone!

Micky: *grins* It's okay, Pete. *runs a hand through his hair* I was stuck in some place with a lot of dead plant life and nothing else except some demons that kept thinking I was their toy. *turns to Lauren* Where did you end up, babe?

Lauren: I'll tell you later, Mick.

Micky: Oh-kay.

Valerie: Let's put it this way, Mick. We know...and you don't need to.

Peter: We don't like knowing, other than we got Lauren out.

Emma: Well, what do we do now?

Valerie: The obvious. Find Mike and Davy, grab our stuff, and get the hell outta here. :p

Peter: Val, we can't leave Charlotte and all these people!

*Micky has a curious look on his face.*

Valerie: That's right, you guys probably don't know about the slaves!

Peter: (Sighs) Long story very short, since we're running out of time in this part, Sheila and Alex seem to be using this as a haven for our fans. They lure them here with promises of meeting us and take their souls.

Emma: Devils?

Peter: (Frowns and puts his hand on her shoulder) Oh man. Guys, her aura's a mess. She's really confused. She knows who we are, but barely knows who she is or where she is!

Lauren: Oh man... :P

Emma: Aura? Peter, what's going on?

Valerie: The devils must have gotten to her.

Micky: No kidding.

Peter: How are we going to get out? We never know what we're walking into next!

Valerie: Let's just keep walking through doors until we find the devils. (Looks at the others) Why don't we hit the kitchen and hope it's normal? I'll bet you're all hungry. If it's normal, we get a snack. If it isn't...we ask whatever resembles a person where to find a snack.

Micky: Oh, yes, please!

Lauren: I'm starved!

(Cut to the garden. Everyone treks through in khaki pants, colorful shirts, and pith helmets. Peter's shirt is paisley, as is the trim on his helmet.)

Peter: (He munches on an apple) I hope we'll be ok back here.

Valerie: We're together now, Peter, and we know what to expect. (Licks her fingers) Boy, those chocolate chip cookies were good!

Emma: So were the hazelnut cookies.

Lauren: And everything else on the dessert trays. ;)

Micky: Man babe, I haven't seen you eat that much since the last time you were pregnant and we, uh...yeah.

Lauren: I was really hungry.

(Peter, Valerie, and Daphne snicker. Emma raises her eyebrows.)

Valerie: (Points to a door) Ok gang, I think that's the main exit.

Peter: (Nods) I recognize it, too! That's how we got back to the lobby the first time!

(As the group troops to the door, we hear a very, very big growl.)

Valerie: (As everyone freezes in their tracks) God, Mick, I hope that was your stomach.

Micky: No, that wasn't my stomach.

Peter: It sounded like Godzilla!

Emma: Um...f..folks... (She raises her hand and points up...and up...at a massive lizard-like beast. It's long and huge, with a big scaly neck, sharp fangs, and a long, pointy tail. It roars and stares at the group hungrily.)

Peter: L...l...l... (Valerie slaps his back) GIANT LIZARD!!!!

Valerie: (Pulls out her sword) All right, guys. Get Emma out of the way, and let's get around this thing.

Peter: Someone protect Emma!

Lauren: I will!

("What Am I Doin' Hangin' 'Round?" begins as Lauren gently nudges Emma behind a tree and the others spread out. Peter pets the lizard on his nose, but he just roars at him. Peter jumps into Micky's arms.)

*Micky puts Peter down and borrows Lauren's staff. He pokes the lizard with it.* :P

(The lizard growls and pokes Micky back with his long claw!)

(The lizard snaps at Peter, who cries. Valerie slaps his nose. He rubs it and glares at her.)

(The lizard leans over to take a bite of Valerie and Micky, but he suddenly pulls back, roaring and clutching his leg, which now has an arrow in it. Peter makes a face. He was aiming for his shoulder.)

(Daphne spears the creature in the chest. He doubles back, roaring. Daphne goes after him. She wants her spear back!)

(Peter goes up to him to try to get the spear out. He whimpers, but Peter pets him. He grabs a leaf of a thick plant and breaks it, then rubs the gel around the wounded area. It allows him to release the spear, which he hands back to Daphne. He pats the lizard on the head; the lizard licks his cheek, almost knocking him flat on his back.)

Peter: (As the song ends) Guys, it's ok! He's a good lizard! (Scratches his head)

Micky: I don't believe it.

Valerie: Peter, what was that stuff you used on his wound?

Peter: (Holds up the thick leaf) Aloe. I found an aloe plant and used the juice.

Valerie: (Pats the lizard) I'm sorry I hurt you, Mr. Lizard. We need to get through to the lobby to find our friends Davy and Mike, and you're in the way.

Peter: That's right, Mr. Lizard. We won't bug you again if you let us through.

(The lizard nods and leaps aside, revealing the same door Peter and Valerie went through when they first exited the garden.)

Valerie: (Looks at the others) Ok, gang, let's go!

(The group hurries into the lobby, now back in their original clothes. The nightman looks exactly the same as he did before, though he now reads a Playboy.)

Valerie: Sir, have you seen two people, a Sheila and Alex Saunders? They may also be registered under the names Sheila and Alex London, or Julia London. We need to find them and contact them somehow.

Nightman: (Nods) Yeah, I've seen them. Matter of fact, they were lookin' for you not long ago.

Peter: Really? (Gulps and moves behind Micky) I don't like the sound of that.

Micky: Great. :P

Nightman: They should be callin' you up...(a black light surrounds the group)...right about now.

Peter: (Sobs; grabs his wife) WAAHHH!!! VAAAALLLLERRIEEE!

Valerie: Yeah, they're calling us all right.

(The light disappears, as do the kids. The nightman smiles evilly and returns to his Playboy.)
