There we go.

Nice and slow.

That's very good.

That's it.

That's it.

Very good.

Nice and easy.

Very nice. Very tidy.

Very neat.

You like that Beaujolais don't you?

I got big news honey.

And it's the reason for

this celebration tonight.

There's a storm headed our way

It should be here in about two days

and I want to be ready for it.

If everything goes as planned

and it should..

It'll be a whole new look for you.

As a matter of fact, it'll be

a whole new you.

Let me show you what I mean.

Isn't she gorgeous?

Maybe teddy isn't your style, eh?

Okay.

What do you think?

Honey-pie, can't you picture

yourself in this body?

Kneeling on Ma's couch

in the basement.

How about the crawling cat, eh?

How 'bout this model?

A visit to the sweet shop?

I can make you into anything you want.

I can make you the centerfold

goddess of the century.

I just need the live parts.

But enough excitement.

How about a little dessert?

Something I wrote for you.

A poem.

Warning!

Contents under pressure.

By...

Jeffrey Franken.

My heart is packed

so full of love for you.

That I dreamed I exploded

Like aerosol cans sometimes do.

I blew with such force

that my bones became shrapnel.

And leveled the town

except the small chapel.

My teeth flew like bullets.

I didn't know what was happening.

They killed everyone in sight.

Except for the Chaplin.

And then, thanks to him,

we were happily wed.

Even though at the time, I...

think we were both dead.

The end.

I know it's not the best

poem in the world, but...

I want you to have it.

Goodnight Elisabeth.

I 'll Se you tomorrow.

It's six hundred volts more

or otherwise there's gonna be...

spider veins or I might get stuck

with a chicken leg.

No, that's...

How can I have gone too far?

Now I'm nitpicking.

I gotta have more wattage.

Otherwise I'm not gonna be happy.

I can't...

I don't wanna...

I can't.. I cant fell guilty now.

I don't wanna feel guilty now.

I just...

I just wanna make life.

I mean, you know.

I just wanna bring you back Elisabeth,

you know.

I mean in order for you to...

to live, I mean, somebody's gotta

take your place, you know?

I mean somebody

has to die for you to live.

Gettin' a cluster headache.

And as you can see

from this lovely map right here

we have some very exciting weather

arriving here in about two days.

More thunder and lightning and electricity

than you've ever enjoyed before.

Haha, very spooky.

Very spooky.

And just right for you

mad doctors out there:

It's great.

Two days.

Two days.

I gotta find her fresh parts

in two days.

OK. I'm gonna do it.

I'm gonna do it.

I just gotta relax.

Relax. The key to this whole

thing is relaxation.

Relax, Calm down

and relax.

I can't relax.

Just gotta get right up from here.

Some people need drugs...

Some people need booze...

I just need a little surgical assistance.

Five-o-seven?

No, twenty-one, no...

Twenty-two.

Goodnight twenty-two.

OK. I gotta get

some...

Stewardesses.

Stewardesses.

Take the Van Wyck express way

out to Kennedy airport.

I'll walk on to the plane.

I've got a maintenance uniform on.

Girls! Ahh, there's a screw loose

in the luggage stool.

You gotta follow me and get off the plane.

I'll get them in the back of my van.

I'll tie them up

with the extension chords.

It's no good. That's not gonna work.

It's ridiculous.

Nobody's gonna believe that.

I don't care how stupid they are.

OK.

All right, now we try this again.

Now we're gonna come up

with something here.

The hole is already bored.

That..

That's it.

Okay, okay.

Why, it's..

It's so simple.

If I need female body parts...

Then I'll buy female body parts.

And there's a place across the river

where there's thousands of women

Anxious to sell their parts.

With no questions asked.

Of course with the right

amount of cash.

I do have my Christmas club account.

Ohh, this is...

Very busy here tonight.

This is like a smorgasbord here.

What a bufft.

Now, these legs are very nice.

Yes...

This might be easier than I thought.

Oh my god,

now this is..

She's nice.

A little lopsided though.

Come on now.

She's not gonna work out.

Very nice!

Oh, there is something very interesting.

OK. This is it.

I think this could be the block.

All right.

OK. This is it.

I've got it now.

Now, this is the block.

I'm...

OK.

Ride behind.

Nice and easy now.

OK.

Hey! You looking for some action?

Or a date?

Hey you!

Need some company?

Are you lonely?

Come on. Come on.

Hey! Goin' out?

Want a date?

Some action?
