narrative scene: Crankitty-crankitty-crankitty... Ratchetty-ratchetty-ratchetty... Crankitty-crankitty-crankitty... Ratchetty-ratchetty-ratchetty... and so on, and so on, and so on... was the sound echoing across the surface of the moon.
scene: [Night Vision Goggles] [ON]. Two moongeeks are on an Opti-Con. The one up at the control shack is yelling down to the moongeek operating the platform handwheels. // caption: [Moongeek] "HURRY!!" // "HURRY!!" // Hur-reEe!! Here comes the sun!" // "HURRY!!"
// scene: The Opti-Con is scurrying across the face of the moon // caption: [Moongeek] "Hurry!! Or they'll see us!!" // narrative scene: Crankitty-crankitty. Ratchetty-ratchetty. Crankitty...
// scene: Two moongeeks are on an Opti-Con. The control shack Moongeek has come down to talk to handwheel operator, who looks exhausted. // caption: [Handwheel Operator] "If we are so In-Toe-Lectually Advanced-- Why then, do we have to crank this stupid thing by hand?!" // "Why doesn't someone just invent a button that we can push... so this thing will move automatically?!" [Other Moongeek] "God only knows... God only knows..."
narrative (commentary): In the shadows of the moon, not far from the line of the lunar dawn, an army of creatures race to fall back into the safety of the blackness of the dark side of the moon. // To fall back-- retreat-- to conceal themselves-- from the lunar day, on the night of the full moon.
// scene: A moongeek stands on the lunar surface, shaking his fist at the sky. // caption: [Moongeek] "OH, HOW I HATE THIS TIME OF MONTH!"
// scene: Two moongeeks talking. // caption: [Moongeek] "WE CAN'T SEE THEM... & WE HAVE NO IDEA AS TO WHAT THEY ARE DOING...NONE. NADA."
ZILCH.
scene: Two moongeeks talking. // caption: [Moongeek] "No good...that's what they're doing. They're up to No Good, if I know those Fliers from the dark side of the moon... No Good, I say!"
narrative (commentary): As the Moongeeks sat and sulked in the shadows of the dark side of the moon, hiding from humans with telescopes. The Fliers of the Bungalow Moon where enjoying a night on the town, a night in the moonlight. And as the full moon rose high in sky, just like always, things began to get a little crazy on the tiny blue planet called Earth... Crazy I say-- absolutely crazy.
