Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein Page #4

Or did we both come along

for the ride? No, no.

Perhaps I should introduce

myself. I'm Professor Stevens.

This is Miss Raymond, Wilbur

Gray, and I'm Chick Young.

How do you do, Miss Raymond? How do you do?

I have work to finish, but it

shouldn't take more than a few minutes.

Wait in the library. I'll be right

down. We're here to pick up Sandra.

Of course. I'm sure

she's around somewhere.

Wilbur!

Sandra, hello.

That girl, who is she? Um, mmm...

Uh, she's Chick's date. She's

going to the masquerade with us.

I told you to come here alone.

We'll have to get rid of them.

I'll have to get rid

of somebody.

Hello, Sandra.

Hello, Chick.

Joan, this is Sandra.

Sandra, Joan.

Nice place you have here, Doctor.

Who told you I was a doctor?

Why, the young man

who answered the door.

Oh, Professor Stevens.

I'm on a vacation, you see,

and traveling incognito.

What are you doing here? Same thing.

Shall we get going? As

soon as I put on my costume.

Would you like to powder

your nose? I'd love to.

I'll be right back,

Wilbur.

I'll be right back, too,

Wilbur.

Toodle-oo!

Oh.

Chick, there's a time in everyone's

life... when they get in trouble.

I'm in a mess of it now. What's wrong?

I've got two girls.

You know the old saying?

"Everything comes in threes. " Suppose a

third girl should fall in love with you?

What's her name? We'll

say her name is Mary.

Is she pretty?

Beautiful.

She'd have to be. Now you

have Mary, Joan and Sandra.

To prove to you that I'm

your pal, your bosom friend,

I'll take one of the girls

off your hands.

Chick, you're what I call

a real pal. It's all right.

You take Mary.

We better answer that phone.

They're all upstairs. Hello.

Hello?

Is Dr. Lejos there?

Just a minute. Somebody wants to know

about a Dr. Lejos. I don't know him.

Hello? Who is this speaking?

This is Wilbur Gray.

I thought I recognized

your voice.

This is Talbot speaking.

Listen. I just got a line

on Dracula and the monster.

Dr. Lejos has been receiving

a lot of electrical equipment,

just the type necessary

to revive the monster.

So what?

I'm way out on an island.

I've got my own problems.

But listen.

I believe you're in

the house of Dracula right now.

You can find the monster,

and I'll...

Hello?

Wilbur!

Come here! Chick, you don't

know what you're doin'!

What's the matter with

you? Shh, quiet. Come here.

- You didn't hang up the phone.

- Let him hang up the phone.

Who? Dracula and the monster live here.

Don't start that again.

Who told you that?

Talbot. He also said we've got

to search the place. Come here.

Come over here.

Listen, Talbot, enough is

enough. Wilbur's scared...

Hello? Hello? He's gone. So am I.

No, you don't. I'm gonna settle this thing

once and for all. We'll search this place.

It's past sunset; and if Dracula

is here, he's gonna want breakfast.

And I'm fatter than you, and it

ain't gonna be me! Just a minute.

It ain't gonna be me! I'm gonna prove

how crazy both you and Talbot are.

We'll search this place,

right from the basement.

Chick, we'll search it, you and

I together. Now we're talkin'.

Atta boy. You search the basement,

I'll search outside. No, you don't!

All right, I'll search outside. and you

search the basement. That's different.

Mm-hmm-hmm. It

worked! Ha-ha! Come on!

Let's look around here.

There's some doors

down there.

You think we oughta tell Sandra

where we're goin'? Certainly not.

You look over there.

Well?

Broom closet.

Broom closet? Look out. Mm-hmm.

Come on.

Broom closet?

Come on!

Wait for me.

Whoa!

Chick! Open!

Whoa!

Ooh! Chick!

Ahh! Chick!

Ah, Chick!

Aw, stop! It's the truth. Come here.

All I did

was like this.

I tell you, right over

there. Where are they?

They're in there.

Listen.

Wait. I'm gonna

look around.

You go ahead. If I don't find

anybody, I'm gonna beat your ears off.

Honest.

They're over there.

Oh, no. I ain't goin'

near that place anymore.

Whoa! Ooh!

Open sesame!

Open sesame!

Well, where are they?

They must be in there.

Stop. I'm getting sick and tired

of this silly nonsense of yours.

Some guy going around...

Uh-uh, uh-uh.

Another guy goin'... Uh! No, no!

The one guy goes...

And the other guy,

not like that, like this.

All right.

Put your hands down.

Come on, the girls

are waiting for us upstairs.

Have you known Wilbur long?

Yes, we're old friends.

Will you be long?

Just a few minutes.

Miss Raymond?

Yes?

I'm ready.

Shall we go?

Of course.

Here's your purse, dear.

Thank you.

Who screamed?

You did! I did? Ha-ha.

Listen, Wilbur, if you don't

stop imagining these crazy things,

I'll take you to a doctor

to have you examined.

But I saw them. And when

I see what I see, I saw it.

Mr. Talbot, he saw it too. Talbot!

He's crazy. You're both crazy!

Sandra.

Sandra, I've gotta tell you. I

was downstairs in the basement.

Basement? What were you doing

down there? I opened the door.

He opened the door and fell

down the stairs. Fibber.

How careless.!

You should be careful.!

A person can get killed! I

hope you weren't disturbed.

It's perfectly all right.

Introduce me.

This is Miss Raymond.

Mr. Young.

And this is Wilbur.

Ahh, Wilbur!

Why!

I've heard so much about you, I

feel as if we have already met.

I must say, my dear, I approve

very highly of your choice.

What we need today

is young blood.

And brains!

Oh, don't be bashful.

Come.

Hello, Dr. Lejos. I've been

looking for you all day.

Every time I ask Dr. Mornay what that

equipment is going to be used for,

she says to ask you.

Of course.

Didn't I hear that you

were going to masquerade ball?

Yes, we have our costumes in

the boat. Oh, you young people!

Making the most of life...

while it lasts.

Thank you.

Professor,

you worked hard and well.

Why don't you join them, and save

your questions until tomorrow?

Under ordinary circumstances I'd

say no, but... if you don't mind?

Not at all. Good. I'll get my coat.

Of course that would make

too many for one boat.

But if the professor and this

lady and gentleman go on ahead,

Wilbur and Dr. Mornay

can... I'm afraid I can't.

What's the matter? I've suddenly

developed a splitting headache.

I'm sorry, Wilbur, but

you'll have to go without me.

Nonsense! It will pass

as quickly as it came.

It's no use, Doctor. I shall

have to go directly to bed.

Pardon me. Well, Chick,

there goes your date.

What was that all about?

This is too dangerous. The girl

is an insurance investigator.

Stevens is asking

too many questions.

Wilbur was up to something in

the basement. We ought to wait.

And jeopardize the success

of the operation? Never!

I must warn you, my dear Sandra, I am

accustomed to having my orders obeyed,

especially by women

with a price on their heads.

Don't try to scare me,

Count Dracula.

Here. The Secrets of Life

and Death by Dr. Frankenstein.

Memorize them. Operate yourself,

if you're in such a hurry.

I have other ways

of securing your cooperation.
