Benjamin Reed:
Mom!
[running down the stairs]
Benjamin Reed:
Mom! Mom! Ma... General Presser! I'm glad you're here, Dad's OK, we can straighten this whole mess out!
Lisa Reed:
Slow down, Ben. Now what are you talking about?
General Presser:
Take it easy, son. You've been under a lot of strain lately.
Benjamin Reed:
No, no, you see? There was this mix-up in space. Dad's actually OK, it's just... he's...
[Ben looks behind him and Orville/Digger walks down the stairs]
General Presser:
What's that monkey doing here? He could be contaminated!
[puts his cloth hankerchief over his mouth and nose]
Benjamin Reed:
Now, I know this is going to be hard to believe... but this monkey...
[looks down to Orville/Digger, who makes a motion with hand to go on and tell them then holds Ben's hand]
Benjamin Reed:
, Sigh. This monkey, is Dad.
Lisa Reed:
Oh, Ben!
General Presser:
[stands]
He needs professional help.
Benjamin Reed:
I'm telling you, this monkey is Dad! You know why Dad's been acting so dumb? Because he's Orville!
General Presser:
Sure, yeah sure, kid. I need to take that monkey back to NASA! I mean, if it's contaminated... we're all in serious trouble! Come here, Orville! I'm your friend!
[moves closer to Orville/Digger, as Orville/Digger steps back]
General Presser:
You're going home!
Benjamin Reed:
You leave him alone!
General Presser:
This is my monkey!
Benjamin Reed:
That's no monkey, that's my Dad!
General Presser:
Come here, you little creep!
[grasps for Orville/Digger, who races back up the stairs]
General Presser:
Get back here!
[runs up the stairs after Orville/Digger]
Benjamin Reed:
[Orville/Digger begins to throw books, a ceramic vase, whatever, to keep Presser back]
All right, Dad!
[Presser gets to the top of the stairs, Orville/Digger jumps to the hand rail]
Benjamin Reed:
Dad! The chandelier!
[runs up the stairs and moves the hanging chandelier so it is within reach of Orville/Digger, who grabs it and swings over and down the stairs, then out the door]
General Presser:
Come back here Orville!
[runs back down the stairs and runs into Ben, who grabs a jacket off the coat tree and puts it over Presser's head]
Lisa Reed:
Ben! What are you doing?
Benjamin Reed:
It's Dad, Mom! I gotta help him!
Lisa Reed:
No!
General Presser:
[takes coat off his head and speaks into his radio]
Mayday, Mayday! All units!
