The Powerpuff Girls Page #9

Girls (All):
Don’t worry Professor, things are going to get better! We promise!

[Back to the volcano top observatory, Jojo now sits in the center of the contraption, discarding his coat and bag, an evil grin spread over his face. He pushes a red button, and the tracking devices planted in the monkeys fur come to life, transporting them away from the zoo, and into pre-arranged liquid-filled cages lined in a circular fashion about Jojo. Another flip of the switch, and the large glass ball contraption comes to life. The chemical X drains from the large beaker on top, and the glass balls, spinning rapidly, each fill with a smaller dosage of the black liquid. Another dial is turned, and the room is cast into a green glow as lightning begins to spark from the balls. The liquid drains from each of the globes, and the monkeys are enveloped in it. They screech under the assault. Lighting begins to issue from their bodies, and their brains grow out from their heads in similar fashion to Jojo, who laughs madly, as rapidly flashing red and green lights flash around him (quite possibly sending several moviegoers into epileptic seizures). The shot zooms out, revealing the monkeys now suspended quite prostate, their brains sticking far out from their heads. The shot continues back, showing the observatory, the city of Townsville, and finally back through the far-right window of the girls bedroom, where they are sleeping peacefully, blissfully unaware of the events transpiring.]

[Morning at the Utonium house.]

Girls (All):
Today’s the day!

Buttercup:
Today’s the day!

Blossom:
Today’s the day!

Bubbles:
Today’s--

[the scene switches back and forth between the girls and Jojo.]

Jojo:
The day!

Blossom:
What to wear?

Buttercup:
What to wear?

Bubbles:
What to wear?

[A row of outfits in the closet reveal nothing but a large collection of the same outfit the girls always wear.]

Jojo:
Oooh, that’s nice!

[In Jojo’s closet is a large selection of his famous outfit a blue suit with white belt, flowing purple cape, and decorative brain helmet. The scene switches back and forth as the four put on stockings, belts, hair bows, gloves, dresses, and brain helmets. A quick shot shows the three girls dressed for action, followed by a sinister look at the well-dressed Jojo. As the girls burst out of their room to start the day, Jojo inspects his mutant army. He pushes a button labeled activate. Back at the girls home, they find the professor asleep at his desk, a phone in one hand and a mess of papers on the desk.]

Girls (All):
Professor, wake up! Wake up! Wake…

Jojo:
…up, wake up my brothers, wake up and seize the…

Bubbles:
…day!

Professor:
(groggily) The day?

Blossom:
Yeah, the day when we…

Jojo:
Show Townsville just what our powers can really do!

[A seemingly endless stream of monkeys begins to burst forth out of the observatory’s main doors, and down onto the streets of Townsville. Back at the Utonium home, the girls are carrying the Professor off with them as they fly towards Townsville.]

Professor:
What?

Blossom:
We’re gonna show Townsville just what our powers can really do!

Buttercup:
Yeah, we did something really good.

Bubbles:
That’s really going to really really really--

[A quick shot of several distressed townspeople.]

Woman:
Heeeeeeeeeelp!

[At this point, the scene switches back and forth between the girls flying forth with the Professor , and Jojo, advancing on Town Hall and into the mayors office, casting him down outside the building.]

Bubbles:
Well, we met this guy…

Buttercup:
With powers like us…

Blossom:
Who was also hated by everybody.

Bubbles:
He had this great idea…

Buttercup:
To help the town…

Blossom:
And make it a better place!

Bubbles:
That way the town would accept us!

Buttercup:
‘Cause we did something to help!

Blossom:
So we used all our powers,

Bubbles:
And a big team…

Buttercup:
…and his ideas,

Blossom:
To help everybody!

Jojo:
City of Townsville!

Buttercup:
It’s gonna be so cool!

Jojo:
I’d like to take this moment…

Blossom:
You’re gonna be so proud!

Jojo:
…to thank the little people…

Bubbles:
Everyone’s gonna love us!

Jojo:
…who helped make this day a smashing success!

Girls (All):
We did really… goooooood?

[At this point the girls reach downtown, and are astonished by what they see. A quick zoom out reveal that there are now hundreds of monkeys ravaging the townsfolk. The camera focuses in on Jojo standing confidently in front of town hall, the mayors head under one of his boots.]

Jojo:
Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup! I couldn’t have done it without cha!

[The three girls heads whip back in shock, their faces a sign of horror.]

Man #1:
It’s their fault!

Man #2:
I knew they were no good!

[Jojo laughs evilly as the girls set the Professor down and fly over to him.]

Blossom:
Jojo, what happened?

Bubbles:
This isn’t making the town a better place!

Jojo:
Yes it is! For me! The hobo formerly known as Jojo is no more! From this day forward I will be known as MOJO JOJO!

[Mojo swoops his cape back in dramatic effect, the mayor still crushed under his right boot. The girls gasp in astonishment.]

Mojo:
For too long, apes and monkeys have been under the thumb of man. Well, the time has come to oppose that thumb, and take hold of what is rightfully ours the world!

Girls (All):
Professor, we didn’t want this!

[A couple townspeople speak out as the monkeys pummel them.]

Woman #1:
Liars!

Man #3:
Fibbers!

Man #4:
You’ve doomed us all!

Blossom:
Please, Professor. Please believe us.

[The Professor, looking aghast and horrified, looks at the girls and the scene taking place in front of him, then droops his head to the side.]

Professor:
I don’t know who to believe.

[The girls gasp in horror. The professor, his voice wavering, puts a hand to his eye.]

Professor:
I thought you were good.

Girls (All):
Noooooooooooooooooooooo!

[As their cries reverberate, the girls make a beeline straight up and as far away from Townsville as possible. Mojo dances on the steps with the mayors head in hand.]

Mojo:
Yeah! Whooo! All right! I rock. I rock so hard! For I, Mojo Jojo, have succeeded in my first, greatest, and most brilliant plan ever! And I, Mojo Jojo, shall be King of the Planet of the Apes!

[At this point there is silence. An orangutan speaks out from the nearby crowd, his bulging brain, spiteful glance, and tone of voice similar in form to Mojo’s.]

Orangutan:
You shall be king? Preposterous!

Mojo:
What? How dare you!

Orangutan:
For it is I, who is the one most suited to be ruler!

[He dons a blue jumpsuit, purple cape, belt, gloves, and helmet identical to Mojo’s.]

Mojo:
Those are my clothes!

Ojo Tango:
I, Ojo Tango, shall be simian supreme!

Mojo:
No Ojo, Mojo!

Ojo Tango:
As I unleash the offensive of this, of the oppressive orangutank!

[At this point, the large ape speaks up. His voice is very low and burly.]

Ape:
Hold on.

Mojo:
Oh no.
