A Wish for Wings That Work Page #2

---

Something's happened!

It isn't Feather

in the cockpit!

The bloke up there

looks like a Chinese

or a Mongolian or something.

What? What?

We don't keep

the macadamia

nuts up here!

Talk to the stewardess!

Got to go.

I've got a Douglas DC-3

to fly!

It's a penguin.

I can fly this thing.

I can fly this thing.

Left foot, left rudder,

starboard stabilizing

ailertooter.

Ailertooter?

Ailertooter. Ailertooter.

Good evening.

This is the captain speaking.

If anyone knows where

the starboard ailertooter

is on a DC-3,

would you please press

your call button now?

(SCREAMING)

I can't stand it any longer!

Take us down!

I can't stand it...

Starboard ailertooter.

Starboard ailertooter.

We're going down.

Why are we going down?

Why are we going down?

We're going down

because penguins can't fly.

(WOMAN SCREAMING)

(SCREAMS)

Yikes!

There.

(BANGING)

Calamity!

Catastrophe!

Cataclysm!

A considerable setback!

A yuletide debacle!

Pure and simple!

Come with us!

No time! Help!

Okay, okay,

let me just gargle.

Superfluous!

Needless!

Spread out!

Out! Out! Out! Out!

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

His stern!

His rudder!

Look.

It's replaceable.

Like a tire.

(CHUCKLING)

Look, there!

This is a fraternity prank,

isn't it?

No! Look!

You're going

to steal my clothes

and leave me naked

outside Albuquerque.

There!

Ow. Jeez.

Hello!

Can somebody help?

We'd do it ourselves...

But ice water

ain't our shtick.

(BURPING)

(EXCLAIMING)

Look!

Ho, ho, ho! Go!

Yow! That's cold!

(COUGHING)

You seem to have mislaid

your hat from your head.

I would be honored

to have you wear mine

instead.

I see no penguins here

whose wings merely sputter.

Tonight it was courage

that flew yours beyond others.

Time to fly, son.

(LAUGHS) Yeah!

Boys, let's go!

Yee-ha!

(SIGHING)

Ah, thank you.

(OPUS EXCLAIMS)

Wait, wait. Stop, stop.

No, no, no, no.

Wait, wait, wait.

Whoa!

Rhinoceros coming through.

(LAUGHING) Yes! Yes!

So, last night,

who exactly was it

that suggested coming to me?

Hey! Billy boy! Come on.

You're falling behind,

hairy-butt.

(COUGHING)

(WHEEZING)

I'm flying for you, too!

Bill, it's wonderful up here!

(MUMBLING)

(LAUGHING)

I'm flying!

Unauthorized take-off!

Unauthorized take-off!

Pull up! Pull up! Pull up!

Don't suck a duck

into your turbines.

An albatross!

Suck up an albatross!

Yeah!

This is totally unnatural.

Excuse me.

But I simply must fly.

(SINGING)

Don't get cocky!
