return to the forbidden planet

navigational officer lines

commence countdown

10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1. ignition. we have lift off

BUT IT WOULDN’T MEAN NOTHING WITHOUT A WOMAN ON EARTH

our sensors, sir, are picking up a storm of asteroids approaching very fast

where should this music be? the air or the earth?

it sounds no more, but sure it waits

Upon some force on yonder planet. this music creeps by us through the astroids

Allaying both their fury and my passion

With its sweet air

no, it begins again

we have been caught within a tractor beam which seems to emanate from yonder star.

what planet, friend, is this?

D’illyria, captain

i think we’re gonna need the valium

this planet has a pleasant seat: the air nimbly and sweetly recommends itself unto our probing sensors and i see they have observed the air is delicate

D’illyria is not marked upon our charts

there seems to be a signal coming through upon our scanner screen

all torment, trouble, wonder and amazement inhibits here. some alien power holds us on this fearful planet

behold captain!

do not muse at me my worthy friend. i have a strange infirmity which is nothing to those who know me.

captain! captain!

who calls so loud?

there is a beep upon my scanner screen

convey her, ariel, as you were charged.

but hold. i think i have another beep.

a second beep?

well I’m not really sure.

two beeps or not two beeps.

that is the auestion

the seconds larger, monstrous in shape, and travels with most unwarrentable speed towards the spaceship, chasing her i think.

there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in my laboratory.

a score of years and ten i can remember well

within the volume of which time i have see

hours dreadful and things strange, but this sore sight

hath trifled former knowings

put up the force-field, that will hold it back! ( this one happens twice)

ariel and the science officer are in the air-lock sir

the earth has bubbles as the water has and this was of it; whither has it vanished?

into the air and what seemed corporal as breath into the wind. thank God it’s gone

so all!

captain tempest, damage control report.

the spaceships hull was fractured in the attack

right away! i’ll put a girdle around the ship in twenty minutes.

but thats not all. we’re in another fix.

another fix? oh no! don’t say theres more!

the klystron generator…

no! not that!

was overloaded driving that thing off

damage report, damage report!

klystron generator malfunction!

now hear this, now hear this! damage control maintenance crew to level nineteen.

condition alpha!

damage control

damage control

to level nineteen

n, n, n, n, nineteen

condition alpha. condition alpha!

YOU’RE NEVER GONNA LEAVE HER

condition alpha!

TELL HER THAT

condition alpha!

reverse polarity!

all passengers and crew adpot polarity reversal procedure. reversing polarity…

come on old girl.. we know you can do it… don’t let us down now.

overload! overload! press harder, press harder!!

(klystron generator explodes.)

polarity reversed!

and the klystron generator?

the klystron generator has fully operational status.

whats the matter?

oh captain, captain there’s another beep upon my radar screen, the very shape that signified th’approach of that space gorgon

the oldest have borne the most. we that are young shall never see so much or live so long

quick! help! our sensors must be on the blink.

i have seen tempests when the scalding winds

have rev’d the knotty oaks; and i have seen

the ambitious ocean rage and swell and foam

to be exalted with the threatening clouds;

but never till today, never till now.

did i go through a tempest dropping fire.

either there is civil strife in heaven

or else this world too saucy with the gods

incenses them to send destruction.

red alert, red alert! all crew to action stations!

10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1

(wipe out starts)

we are now cruising in hyperdrive and have acheived a no-emergency scenario.

(im not writin all that)

take it away!

one, two, three.
