| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Uh-- hold on. Lemme try something. Come here. Come on up. Easy. Easy. OK-- here we go. There's a bunch 'a loose rocks down there. Maybe he swallowed one, you know? OK-- here we go."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Come on."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Popped right out!"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Ah, are you all right?! Don't ever do that again!"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Aw, man."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Hey, Iolaus."

| | |
| '''Discord:''' "Mmmmm."
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Um-- is that the sound of a crowd fleeing in terror as Corinth is destroyed? Ha-ha-ha-ha. Uh-- no! [Buzzing Sound] It's the sound of the crowd cheering for _Hercules_ and his pals and their little pet! Nah! Uncle Ares is gonna be _so-o-o-o_ impressed. He-he-he-- he's just gonna go all-- warm and fuzzy, inside. Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-- "
| |
| | |
| '''Discord:''' [Interrupting] "Oh-- go soak your head!"
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' [Interrupting] [Scream]
| |
| | |
| '''Discord:''' "I try so hard to teach him to be patient. The basilisk is still a baby! It takes time for his venom to take effect!"
| |
| | |
| '''Discord:''' "The fun's started." [They laugh]
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Like it."
| |
| | |
| == Act Two ==
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus's Voice:''' "Hey, uh, now that the fire's out, you guys wanna see what I taught Ruff? Huh?"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "OK, Ruff-- ready? Wanna fetch? Yeah? Hoo! Ah. Go! Awww. Thank you."
| |
| | |
| '''Ophistus:''' "The captain of the guard-- reports that no one was seen setting the fires."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Some people can only be seen when they wanna be seen-- you know what I mean?"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Fetch! Ooh!"
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Maybe it was one of the gods."
| |
| | |
| '''Ophistus:''' "The people are worried, Prince Jason. I suggest you make a speech, encouraging them. Now-- this is a standardm reassuring speech, suitable for any calamity."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Oh. Oh. Ruff?"
| |
| | |
| '''Ophistus:''' "Perhaps you could devote more attention to your duties if you put that _thing_ outside!"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Hey! His name is Ruff, and he's not a thing! He's a-- he-- he's a-- "
| |
| | |
| '''Ophistus:''' "-- pain-- in the neck! Oh! Oh! No! Oh! Yuck!"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' [Interrupting] "Oh, Ruff-- no. Hey, now, calm down, calm down. It's OK. He only does that when he feels threatened. I'll get it _cleaned_ for you."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Hey, well, listen, you're gonna have to send it out-- ‘cause the palace laundry burned in the fires."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Well, I'm takin' Ruff with me. "Let's roll."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Jason-- you know that towel that Iolaus used to wipe off that goop that Ruff spit on him?"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Come on, buddy."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "That was in the laundry that caught on fire, wasn't it?"
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Yeah, I think so."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "And that inn that burnt down, was that the one we had to rescue Ruff from?"
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Yeah, and there was a fire-- near the well that Ruff fell into."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' [Sighs] "Listen-- when I was a kid, my mom used to tell me this story about a monster, called a basilisk. OK? It's venom-- could turn a man to ashes."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Yeah, I heard that too, but's that's just a legend. Nobody's ever actually seen a basilisk."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Oh, yeah? I think maybe we just have."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "OK, now I want you two guys to-- ah-- shake hands, OK? Shake hands? Hey."
| |
| | |
| '''Older Boy:''' "My dog can do that."
| |
| | |
| '''Older Boy's Voice:''' "I bet he's not any smarter than a dog-- is he?"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "I don't know. I haven't asked him."
| |
| | |
| '''Older Boy:''' "My father gave me a dog."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus's Voice:''' "Yeah, well, my father gave me a dog, too."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Well-- he didn't, but he-- he-- said he was going to."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus's Voice:''' "I guess he just forgot-- huh."
| |
| | |
| '''Man:''' "What kind 'a stain's that? Oh!"
| |
| | |
| '''Woman's:''' "Oh!"
| |
| | |
| '''Man:''' "Oh! Oh-- ah-ah-ahh! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa-whoa! Whoa!"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "That venom only hit that cloak, like a couple minutes ago. Looks like it gets stronger as it gets bigger, or something."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "What are you talkin' about? What venom?"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "We think that Ruff is a basilisk."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "A basilisk."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Yes."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Come on, they don't exist. Ruff's real. He's a-- he's a-- where'd he go?"
| |
| | |
| '''Merchant Woman:''' "Get away from my fruit!" [Screams]
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Excuse me-- Miss? There you go."
| |
| | |
| '''Merchant Woman:''' "Why, you-- !"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Uh-- "
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Ruff! Ruff! Where are you?"
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Hey-- don't be afraid, little basilisk. We're all friends, here. Ha-ha."
| |
| | |
| '''Discord:''' "Boo!"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Over here! Help me with this table!"
| |
| | |
| '''Man's Voice:''' "Water!"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Oh, there he is. OK, Ruff, it's OK, buddy. No, no, no, no, don't leave! Come here! Uh-- hey, little buddy. It's OK. It's OK. It's-- oh! Oh! Ah-- thanks."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "My pleasure."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "More water!"
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Why is everybody always in such a hurry?!"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Strife-- I should 'a known you were behind all this!"
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "And, Discord's behind me. Anybody behind you?"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Well, you won't be laughin' when I get through with you."
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Aah-- n-no-no time for that. You've got bigger fish to fry."
| |
| | |
| '''Discord:''' "And I think I smell them frying right now."
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Woooh!" [Strife and Dis laugh.]
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Bang!"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Oh, he's doing it again. Oh! OK, uh-- you don't-- you don't have to be afraid! A-ha. Maybe, I do."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Ah. Uh!"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Hold on. I got a plan. Here we go. Charge!" [Ja, H, and I yell]
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Halt! OK. Here it is. Here it is. Ruff? Ruff? Ruff, buddy, this [?] looks good, huh? It looks good. OK, Ruff-- "
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Don't hurt him!"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules's Voice:''' "It's OK."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Get him! Well-- get him lightly!"
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Whoa-- nice catch, Hercules."
| |
| | |
| '''Strife's Voice:''' "The whole town's a barbecue, and I forget to bring my marshmallows! Guess you weenies'll have to do! Ha-ha!"
| |
| | |
| '''All:''' [Laugh]
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "All right, Barney [?]."
| |
| | |
| '''Strife:''' "Let's not tell, uh-- Uncle Ares about this, huh? Whaddya say?"
| |
| | |
| '''Discord:''' "Ahhhhhh!"
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Man, it must really burn Strife to lose to you."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "I know. I'n't it great? But he'll be back."
| |
| | |
| '''Villagers:''' "Two. One-- two. One-- two. One-- two. One-- two."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Well-- that's the last 'a the fires!"
| |
| | |
| '''All:''' [Cheer]
| |
| | |
| '''Men's Voices:''' "All right!" "Yeah! Hooray!"
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Don't worry, good people! The palace will pay to repair the damages!"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "All right!"
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "I'm afraid I'm gonna have to do more than just make repairs. As the Crown Prince, I'm gonna have to make sure this doesn't happen again."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Uh-- oh, oh, uh, uh-- we could, uh-- train Ruff to-- just spit goo at Strife. You know, you know? Kinda like a-- guard dog. He could-- guard. He could-- be a-- hmm."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "No."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "I can't keep him, can I?"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "I'm sorry."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "No."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Uh-- I really don't feel right about leavin' Ruff out here by himself. You know? What if he-- he gets caught by a lion, or-or something?"
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Yeah, he'd turn the lion into toast."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "According to the legend, there's basilisks over this rise."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Why hasn't anyone ever seen one, before?"
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "What if he's all alone? You know? Just a scared little baby. All right-- a-- _loud_, scared little baby."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "Doesn't sound like he's gonna be alone."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Well, I guess he'll be happier with his own kind, huh?"
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules's Voice:''' "Goodbye, Ruff."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason's Voice:''' "Take care of yourself."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus's Voice:''' "Goodbye, little guy."
| |
| | |
| '''Iolaus:''' "Now I know how my mother must have felt when I left home."
| |
| | |
| '''Jason:''' "Yeah-- relieved. Ha-ha. Uh."
| |
| | |
| '''Hercules:''' "He'll be all right. You did the right thing."
