Attack of the Puppet People Page #6

Synopsis: Deranged doll-maker Mr. Franz is deathly afraid of being left alone, so he creates a machine that can shrink humans down to only a few inches tall. He soon accumulates a troupe of shrunken prisoners whom he forces to perform for him and keep him company. When he shrinks his secretary Sally and her fiance Bob, the pair decide against spending their days as pint-sized playthings and try to find a way to escape and re-enlarge themselves.

IT'S THIS WAY.

SECOND AND MAIN. AND WE HAVE

IT'S THE FACTORY.

COME ON, LET'S HURRY.

WE HAVE TO GO:

TO THE FIFTH FLOOR.

THE ELEVATOR OPERATOR

WON'T BE ON FOR

AT LEAST AN HOUR.

WE CAN'T OPERATE

IT OURSELVES.

WHAT ABOUTFREIGHT?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WELL, THERE MUST BE

A FREIGHT ELEVATOR

AROUND BACK.

WHEN DO THEY:

MAKE DELIVERIES?

I DON'T KNOW. SHIPMENTS

USUALLY COME IN:

BEFORE I GET TO WORK.

COME ON.

[Bob]

HEY, WAIT!

IT'S ALL RIGHT. HE'LL

BE BACK FOR ANOTHER

LOAD IN A MINUTE.

BOB, LOOK!

BOB, LOOK, THE LABEL!

IT'S FOR MR. FRANZ.

GO ON, GET OUT!

DOLLS INCORPORATED

WE'RE IN LUCK.

HE LEFT THE DOORS OPEN.

[Sound of key in the door]

[Little Girl] MR. FRANZ!

MR. FRANZ!

WHAT'S THE MATTER, HONEY?

ISN'T MR. FRANZ IN?

LET ME TRY.

[Sergeant] WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE

WE BOTH MISSED HIM, DOESN'T IT?

YOU LIKE HIM, DON'T YOU?

BECAUSE HE MAKES DOLLIES?

[Little Girl]

AND PEOPLE, TOO.

PEOPLE?

LITTLE PEOPLE.

HE MAKES LITTLE PEOPLE,

DOES HE? HOW?

OUT OF BIG ONES:

WITH A MACHINE.

REAL LITTLE PEOPLE?

PEOPLE THAT WALK AND

TALK AND EVERYTHING?

HOW DO YOU KNOW?

MR. FRANZ SHOWED ME.

HE SAID, SOMETIMES

WHEN I'M GOOD

I CAN PLAY WITH THEM.

[Sergeant] HE ISN'T HERE

TO LET YOU PLAY WITH THEM,

AND THAT'S WHY

YOU'RE UNHAPPY?

[Little Girl] HE SAID I

COULD PLAY WITH HIS KITTY.

[Sergeant] OH, A KITTY?

[Little Girl] A LITTLE, TINY

KITTY. MR. FRANZ KEEPS IT

IN A MATCHBOX.

HE MADE IT IN:

HIS MACHINE.

[Sergeant] I SEE.

ISN'T IT TIME YOU WERE

GOING TO SCHOOL?

WELL, COME ON. I'M GOING

TO TAKE YOU THERE.

LITTLE PEOPLE.

CAT IN A MATCHBOX. COME ON.

[Bob] GET AWAY FROM THAT DOOR.
