The movie begins with scenes of people screaming in horror
and running down the streets of a big city. The ground shakes from
what seems like giant footsteps. There are pieces of building
debris falling everywhere, people getting crushed, power lines
coming down, etc. - complete pandemonium. It all looks very much
like a Japanese animated King-Kong or Godzilla movie. We hear the
footsteps getting closer and the ground shaking becomes more
intense - more debris falling. Then we see a HUGE BLACK TENNIS
SHOE come into frame and smash a National Guard truck. As we pan
up, we see the white socks, then the red shorts, the AC/DC T-
shirt, then we hear the familiar, "Huh huh huh." - only it's a
huge sound...this is a THREE-HUNDRED FOOT TALL BUTT-HEAD. "Butt-
Kong" continues his path of destruction - stomping on cars and
buildings and saying, "This is cool. Huh huh huh."
Airplanes and tanks start firing at Butt-Head (Butt-Kong).
He looks irritated and says, "Cut it out butt-munch!" Butt-Head
swats at the planes, sending them crashing to the ground and
stomps on the tanks. Then, something catches his eye. Butt-Head
reaches into a skyscraper and picks up a nice looking woman - a
lot like the one from the King Kong movie. He looks down at her in
his hand and goes wide-eyed, "Whoa! Huh huh huh." The woman
screams in terror as Butt-Head looks down at her and tries a few
lame pick up lines. "Uuuuh...Hey baby. I'm like, pretty tall. Huh
huh huh." He swats down a helicopter that is circling his head,
"Dammit, I'm trying to score!" The helicopter goes down in flames.
We CUT TO some guys sitting on a tank firing at him. They notice
giant footsteps coming from the other direction and turn the tank
around. Through their binoculars we see a THREE-HUNDRED FOOT
BEAVIS coming from the horizon. The giant Beavis is even more
destructive than Butt-Kong (maybe he could be breathing fire).
Beavis starts trying to pick up on Butt-Head's woman. Butt-Head
puts the woman down and he and Beavis begin to go at it, leveling
the city with one of their stupid juvenile smack-fights.
We CROSS-DISSOLVE from three-hundred foot Beavis shaking
Butt-Kong to Butt-Head asleep on the couch with Beavis shaking
him.
INT. B&B'S HOME - DAY
BEAVIS (O.C.)
Butt-Head! Butt-Head! Hey, Butt-Head!
Butt-Head is dead asleep on the couch. Beavis shakes him.
BEAVIS:
Butt-Head, wake up, wake up!
Butt-Head comes around.
BUTT-HEAD
Dammit, Beavis, I was about to score.
Huh huh.
BEAVIS:
Yeah, but check it out. It's gone!
BUTT-HEAD
What's gone?
BEAVIS:
The TV.
Beavis is making STRANGE NOISES, in a state of shock.
Butt-Head rubs his eyes and looks at the empty space where the TV
was.
BUTT-HEAD
Uuuuuuh, huh huh. Uuh,...
Out the window, we see two YOUNG MEN carrying B&B's TV into their
van.
Still on the couch, Butt-Head looks over at the broken window. We
see a CROWBAR lying on the floor, and the front door left open.
Butt-Head looks at the BROKEN WINDOW, at the CROWBAR, the OPEN
DOOR, then back at the EMPTY SPACE where the TV was. He does this
a couple of times - piecing it all together.
BUTT-HEAD (CONT.)
Whoa! I think I just figured something
out Beavis.
BEAVIS:
What?
BUTT-HEAD
This sucks.
BEAVIS:
Yeah, heh heh.
Beavis is still in shock. They both stare at the empty space where
the TV was for a beat, not quite sure what to do.
Beavis is SHAKING AND MAKING WEIRD NOISES. He presses buttons on
the remote a few times, as if it might help somehow.
BUTT-HEAD
This sucks more than anything that
has ever sucked before. We must find
this butt-hole that took the TV.
Bad neighborhood. 70's music blares.
A fast driving car drives right at us and stops. Punks run in
fear. Beavis hops out of the driver's seat, wearing bell-bottoms,
chain jewelry and a 70's afro. Into a dramatic CLOSE-UP, he takes
off his glasses.
FREEZE ON BEAVIS
ANNOUNCER:
Beavis!
FRAME UNFREEZES. Beavis whips out a huge gun.
BEAVIS:
Freeze, butt-wipe!
An attacker comes from one side. Beavis uses Judo. Another tosses
a knife. Beavis ducks, then shoots with two hands, police style.
INT. BEDROOM - NIGHT
Swinger's pad. Totally 70's. A group of bikini'd girls on a
waterbed. Butt-Head approaches them. He wears a leisure suit,
collar way open. He plops down in the bed.
FREEZE ON BUTT-HEAD
ANNOUNCER:
Butt-Head!
FRAME UNFREEZES. The girls wrap their arms around him.
BUTT-HEAD
Huh huh huh. Come to Butt-Head, baby.
ANNOUNCER:
Star in...
ACTION MONTAGE BEGINS. Styled like a 70's cop show opening.
OPENING CREDITS to the movie appear just as cop show credits
would.
Beavis does a Starsky and Hutch-style roll with a gun.
Butt-Head slaps a pimp.
Beavis drives, chasing a car.
Butt-Head is slapped by a girl.
BUTT-HEAD
Huh huh huh. That was cool.
Beavis and Butt-Head are in a warehouse shoot-out.
A black police chief rises from a desk to yell at B&B.
B&B dive for cover just before a building explodes.
In CLOSE-UP, Beavis smiles for an ID shot.
Butt-Head does the same.
Beavis, in a rooftop fight, kicks his opponent over the edge.
A beautiful woman, back to us, takes off her dress for Butt-Head.
FINAL OPENING CREDIT APPEARS. Butt-Head and the woman fall into
bed. Suddenly...
INT. SCHOOL HALLWAY/DOOR TO A.V. ROOM - DAY
From inside, SOUND of equipment crashing.
B&B come out wheeling a TV on one of those carts. There are cables
attached to it still leading back into the A.V. room. As they push
the cart we hear more equipment falling.
BUTT-HEAD
Dammit, it's stuck.
They give it one big push and it finally breaks free. We see that
the cables are tangled with cables from other TVs and VCRs, which
all come crashing to the ground.
BUTT-HEAD (CONT.)
Huh huh huh. That was cool.
BEAVIS:
Yeah, heh heh. Let's just wheel this
thing back to the house.
INT. SCHOOL/ANOTHER HALLWAY - DAY
VAN DRIESSEN:
Ah, excuse me boys. What's going on
here?
BUTT-HEAD
BEAVIS:
Yeah. We're just gonna use this one.
Get outta the way. Heh heh.
VAN DRIESSEN:
I'm afraid that TV belongs to the school.
Mmmkay? You know, this could be a positive
experience for you guys. There's a
wonderful world out there when we discover
we don't need TV to entertain us.
BUTT-HEAD
Huh huh huh. He said "anus."
BEAVIS:
(to himself)
Entert-ain...us...an-us...Oh yeah! Heh
heh. Anus. Heh heh.
VAN DRIESSEN:
(frustrated)
Have you guys heard a word I've said?
BUTT-HEAD
Yeah, "anus." Huh huh huh huh.
VAN DRIESSEN:
Look, guys, just take the TV back to the
A.V. room right now. And try to be a little
more open-minded. Mmkay?
Van Driessen leaves. B&B continue to wheel the cart home.
BUTT-HEAD
What a dork. Huh huh.
BEAVIS:
Yeah, heh heh. He's a anus. Heh heh.
EXT. SCHOOL/STAIRWAY - DAY
B&B arrive with the cart at the top of a stairway. They lamely
attempt to let it slowly down the steps. The cart is too top-heavy
and goes tumbling to the bottom of the stairs, shattering the TV.
