(We open at Columbia Studios, a few days after the incident on the desert and the loss of the dune buggy. Lauren's purple Chevy Bel Air and Valerie's blue Corvette enters the studio gates and parks in visitor parking. The four MonkeeWomen and their four children pile out of the two cars.)

Katie: Movies! Yay!

Jordan: Yay!

Emma: (Grins) Well here we are in the land of make-believe.

Lauren: *to the twins* Look at that rock, it's a phony rock. Look at that tree, it's a phony tree. *A handsome man passes by them* Look at that man... *turns away blushing and grinning*

(The girls all look. So do Shelly and Katie. Katie frowns. She doesn't see the big deal. Jordan just doesn't get it.)

Valerie: (Coughs) Yes, well, remember ladies we're here on important business. We have to talk to the designer of the dune buggy and see if any custom car designers on any of the movie lots have vanished recently.

Emma: Mike and Micky went back to the custom car show after they were released from filming early due to the dune buggy disappearing, but Mike said they didn't find out much other than what the car owner told them and what they saw Alex doing.

Valerie: Ok, we know Alex loves cars and loves...(looks at the kids)...um, loves chasing people. What does he need more cars for...and why?

Emma: If he's a car collector, there's no reason. Mike has at least two or three other cars besides the MonkeeMobile, two motorcycles, and he's trying to talk me into a boat. :p

Lauren: He is a collector, but there still has to be some kind of ulterior motive.

Valerie: This is Alex we're talking about. He's cloned from Micky. There's always an ulterior motive.

Katie: See daddies! :D

Valerie: And yes, we're going to watch your daddies make movies, like we promised you.

Little Mick: Yay! Let’s go! :D

(The four women take the children to a door. After a light goes off, they enter. They walk through a dark area to the front, where cameras, people, and equipment surround what looks like the Pad, but not quite. There's a large stained glass window in the back, Micky leans over a tank, and Peter sits in an old dentist's chair.)

Emma: (Whispers as a familiar voice calls "action") Looks like they let the guys loose in the prop department again.

Lauren: Don't they know that's dangerous?

(A young woman walks in the room and plants a kiss on Micky. She then goes to Peter and does the same, but doesn't look at him. She goes to Mike and smirks at him after she's done. She goes to Davy and kisses him. The stained glass window blows open, and we hear playback violin music. She leaves Davy.)

Mike: (To the girl) Well?

Girl: (Shrugs) Even.

(She leaves, giggling. Mike goes to a mirror and frowns, obviously trying to remember something.)

Mike: Now wait a minute, I...Now I... (Growls) Oh, damn, can't remember the rest.

Katie: (Tugs her mother, who is not too happy) Making movie, Mama?

Emma: Yes, (growls) but Mama's going to have a little chat with Papa when he's done about cutting certain parts.

Voice: Cut. Why don't we take fifteen minutes to look at lines, then start back up from Davy's kiss?

(The guys break from the set; the girl goes to Jack, who leans against a crate. The Monkees immediately head for their families.)

Peter: (Kisses Valerie) Hi, honey. (Takes Jordan) And how's my little boy?

Jordan: Dad! (Hugs him)

Valerie: Missing his daddy. I do, too.

*Micky ruffles the hair of both twins.*

Lauren: C'mere, Mick... *pulls him down into a kiss*

Emma: (As Mike gives her a kiss and takes Katie) Mike, what was that about?

Mike: Darlin', I swear, Jack wrote that scene. He just wanted to get his girlfriend in the movie.

Emma: Uh-huh.

Katie: Daddy make movie! Kissy!

Mike: Um, don't worry, cowgirl, that ain't what the whole movie's like. (Grins) You guys should stick around. We're filmin' the western scene tomorrow and the boxin’ scene this afternoon.

Katie: John Wayne!

Mike: Sorry, couldn't get him, but Mick and I get to make fun of ol' western movies with one of the ingeunes on the Columbia lot.

*Davy grins, rubbing Daphne's tummy.*

Mike: (Grins) Daph, I'll bet you didn't know your hubby can fake playing the violin and gets the stuffin' knocked out of him by Sonny Liston really well. ;)

Daphne: *grins at Davy, who turns a few shades of red* Really?

Peter: Micky doesn't want him to get hurt, (quieter) and Mike doesn't care.

Micky: *sighs* I got to talk to Sonny.

Emma: We're going to see if any other custom cars are missing. We want to get to the bottom of this.

Mike: Just be careful, ladies. Alex and Sheila are willing to try anything to get what they want. They won't have any problems chasin' four kids and four women, two pregnant, around a movie studio.

Emma: We'll keep an eye on each other, honey. And there's a whole security force who'll remove those two bodily if they try anything stupid.

Mike: Before we get back, one more piece of advice, ladies. If you need security, don't call the cop in the bathroom.

Emma: Um yeah, Mike, I'll remember that.

Mike: (As voices are heard) That's Bert. It's time for us to start workin' again. I really think we oughta shorten this scene anyway. It's kinda sayin' the same things as later in the movie.

Peter: I think it's ok. We get to talk about what we're really like!

Emma: We'll see you guys a bit later. We're going to show the kids what a major movie studio looks like.

Mike: Ok, darlin'. Be careful. (Looks at Katie) You too, cowgirl.

Katie: I 'kay, Papa!

Emma: Me too.

(It's a little later. The women walk out of the studio cafeteria with the kids in tow.)

Emma: How are we going to find information about the cars here? Shouldn't we go back to that car show?

Valerie: Em, car shows aren't the only place you'll find custom cars. Think of all the fancy cars you see in movies and on TV, like the Batmobile or cars created for specific stunts. This is a great place for Sheila and Alex to blend in, too. Everyone's supposed to look bizarre.

Emma: (Looks at her watch) The boys will be starting on that boxing scene soon. Why don't we walk around, then take the kids to see the guys film again before we take everyone home for naps?

Katie: Wanna see Papa!

Jordan: Dad!

Little Mick: No nap! :P

Valerie: Jordan and Katie take their naps, Little Mick. You'll probably be tired after running around the studio all day.

Little Mick: Not tired! :P

Valerie: (Chuckles) Well, we're not taking a nap right away. We'll see how you feel later.

Little Mick: Okay. :)

Emma: (Kneels down to Little Mick) You can help us with what we're doing now. We're looking for fancy cars, like the Batmobile on TV, and the people who own them.

Valerie: Your daddy and mommy say you like cars. I'll bet you could be a big help!

Little Mick: I find Batmobile! :D

Valerie: Not just the Batmobile. All kinds of fancy cars. Stunt cars, cars you see in TV shows. Things like that.

Little Mick: I can do that! :)

Emma: Good. Let's go do it. Then we'll go see all your daddies making the movie again.

Katie: Good! Find cars!

(Drags her mommy ahead as "Tomorrow's Gonna Be Another Day" begins.)

*Little Mick drags his mom and sister over to the Batmobile. The man at the car picks up Mick and puts him in the driver's seat. Mick makes engine noises while turning the wheel.*

(A woman is seen in the shadows...a woman with short flaming red hair. She shakes her head. The car is interesting, but it and it's owner are too well-known.)

(Katie and Emma watch as a man in a huge car with big bull horns pulls up to them as they stroll through a western set. Emma recognizes him as a friend of Mike's. They talk for a bit, and he puts Katie in the driver's seat and lets her turn the wheel and make noises. Emma even takes pictures.)

(The woman watches them, but shakes her head again. Not bad, but one Texan is QUITE enough!)

*Daphne checks out an all black Chrysler. There's a sign hanging off the tent that reads "Black Beauty - The Green Hornet."*

(Valerie pushes Jordan past a gorgeous silver car with a sign that reads "Astin Martin - James Bond films.")

(Emma helps Katie into a bright pastel 50s car as a young man with thick brown curls and a beard beams shyly, trying to show Emma his ideas for a new science fiction movie he wants to make.)

*Lauren takes the kids over to another car, a red 1965 Sunbeam Tiger. The man standing by the car holds a striking resemblance to a certain Agent 86.*

(Emma, Valerie, Katie, and Jordan walk past a bunch of motorcycles with American flags and symbols painted on them and American-themed helmets. The sign says "Easy Rider.")

(Katie runs up to the twins, who play on a huge model of an elaborate-looking spaceship. Two young men in fancy sci-fi uniforms - one orange, one blue with black hair and pointy ears - sign autographs for the delighted twins. Katie wants one, too!)

(They meet up with Valerie, Jordan, and Daphne as the music ends.)

Emma: Any luck?

Valerie: (Shakes her head) No Sheila or Alex. Lots of great cars, though.

Emma: I think I saw Sheila skulking around a few cars, but I'd look again and she'd be gone.

Valerie: Either we scared her off or she just decided the cars weren't right for her.

Emma: A lot of these cars, like the Batmobile and the Easy Rider motorcycles, are too well-known for Sheila to steal. People would look for them right away.

Valerie: Then it stands to reason that we'll have to look for cars and owners who are unknown.

Lauren: Yeah.

Katie: Uh-oh. (Tugs on her mother's sleeve) Mama, I don' feel good.

Emma: (Puts her hand on her stomach) Oh, sh...man. I think we found Sheila.

Lauren: Great...

Katie: Look! (Points to a familiar woman talking to two young men sitting on a red sportscar with elaborate flame decals. She rubs their heads and whispers in their ears. Their eyes turn black. They walk stiffly into the car, followed by Sheila.)

Valerie: She must have put those two under a trance.

Emma: She's stealing that car! Stop her! (Looks at Daphne) Daph, tell security! Quick!

Daphne: Going! *heads off to get Security*

Emma: How are we going to catch up with them?

Valerie: They won't get far in this big studio. We need a big car.

Emma: (Points at the Partridge Family's bus) Does anyone know where Shirley Jones is? ;)

Valerie: We'll find her and explain later. Everyone get in. The MonkeeWomen are going after that b...(sighs)...witch.

("Circle Sky" begins as the kids and their mothers pile into the van, much to the surprise of the person guarding it. Emma imagines child safety seats for all of the kids. Their mothers strap them in, then strap themselves in and take off after Sheila.)

(They drive into the front of a house where six kids - three dark-haired boys, three blonde-haired girls - whine to a blonde woman about not getting enough attention. Everyone scatters. Emma grabs a pie from the surprised maid and hits the oldest girl with it. The blonde whines and wails, but the second oldest girl grins and hits her with another pie. The blonde screams, whines, and runs off-set.)

(They drive through another house, past a surprised older couple playing the piano. The woman offers the kids brownies, but her husband shouts a blue streak, then gulps his beer.)

(The car and van next careen through a junkyard. An old black man and his son watch as the car and van flies over, under, around, and through arranged piles of junk. The old man wants to join the race, but his son says "no." He tries to fake a heart attack, but the only result is rolling eyes.)

(A young woman with big brown eyes sits behind a desk, chatting with an older, balding man in a sweater and another older man in a suit, this one rather puffed up. The van goes careening through, following the car. The balding man and the young woman jump out of their seats, but the other man in the suit runs after the car to give everybody his autograph.)

(The car screeches and turns a corner, making for the movie sets.)

Valerie: Hold onto your potatoes, everyone, 'cause we're going to see your daddies.

Katie: Daddy! Yay!

Emma: This won't hurt, will it?

Lauren: Wait, we have potatoes? ;)

Emma: (Grins; there's a blue light, and she's holding a bag of potatoes) Here you go, Val! (Hands them around)

Valerie: (As a potato is shoved under her nose) Very funny.

*Daphne shrugs.*

(We see footage from the original "Head" of the guys at the boxing ring. Micky runs up to the ring and goes into his fist-fighting rampage, knocking out Mike, then Carol Doda, then security guards before finally being subdued.)

(As soon as Peter finishes saying "I'm always the dummy, Mick," we cut to the car bursting in through the side of the wall, down a row, and across the ring. Everyone scatters but Micky, who watches with a big grin as he clutches the side ropes.)

(The van follows. It chases the car around the ring. We cut to an overhead shot of the car following Mike, Micky, Peter, and Davy, the van following the car, and angry extras and crewpeople following the van.)

(Everyone goes around and around the ring. The guys finally stop as we cut back to regular shot and push against the side of the ring, letting everyone ELSE go around and around.)

(The car bursts out again...and the van skids in front of it as the song ends. The girls all pile out.)

Emma: (Still holding a potato) Halt, Sheila! You let those boys and their car go!

Lauren: Or else!

Sheila: (Raises an eyebrow at the potato) Are we making French fries?

Valerie: (As Emma blushes and drops the potato) Sheila, the cops are coming. We told them what you're doing.

Sheila: They won't believe you. (Sighs) But I can't take that chance. I'm not in the mood to play with all of you right now, as much as I'd like to turn the lot of you into something more useful, like houseplants. (There's a black light around the car, and it and its occupants vanish as the boys, Jack Nicholson, Daphne, and the crew finally catch up.)

Emma: (Screams) DAMN HER!

Mike: What the HELL was that?

Peter: And why didn't you ask us to join you? :p

Valerie: Sheila was at it again. She stole that car and put it's two owners under a trance. I woudn't be surprised if they're both missing their souls by now.

Peter: Oh no! :(

Mike: So we were right. They're after cars.

Emma: And their owners.

Valerie: But...why? (Looks at Micky) You and Mike are the car geniuses here. What do all of these cars have in common, besides being custom cars?

Micky: I'd take a guess...the cars are powerful. *shrugs*

Mike: Yeah, they're all recent models, and customizable ones that Alex can equip with whatever devices his sick and twisted mind comes up with.

Emma: Maybe you two could figure out just why Alex wants all these cars.

Valerie: OTHER than to impress women.

Mike: (Shrugs) He's another car-a-holic?

Micky: Besides that.

Peter: (Looks up, eyes wide) Well, we'd better figure it out quickly, because the cops are coming, and they don't look very happy.

Cop 1: All right, you ladies are under arrest for grand theft auto and wanton destruction.

Emma: What?

Valerie: Oh dear...

Lauren: Uhhh...

(We fade out as everyone tries to explain everything to the cops and the kids play with the potatoes in the Partridge Family van.)
