The Three Stooges in Orbit Page #2

Send someone right over.

I'd love to, professor, but unfortunately

all my men are busy right now.

We're rounding up a herd of

man-eating caterpillars from Venus...

...that are trying to crush city hall!

What's the matter,

you a nut or something

Mr. Welby

Mr. Welby, come back!

They're gonna blow up

the whole world.

Hollywood television studio,

Stage 1. The Three Stooges.

Somebody's gotta listen!

Come on, fellas, we've got less

than an hour to make our TV show.

Let's go!

-The studio!

-Follow me, boys.

Ladies and gentlemen,

the Three Stooges Scrapbook!

And now from Hollywood, California...

...The Three Stooges

are on the air!

Hello, everybody, it's a great pleasure

on this momentous occasion--

-Hey, hey, you're stealing my line.

-Okay, say it.

On this monotonous occasion....

I knew it, why....

-Hey, this is getting monotonous.

-It's momentous.

He got it too.

And now, youngsters, get set for that

mad, zany, Three Stooge cartoon.

Roll the film, go, go, go!

-Boy, are they ugly.

-Especially the one in the middle.

-Stop playing around!

-Are you crazy Hey, look at that.

-That fat fellow, he's a doll, isn't he

-Come on, go. Come on.

You wanna watch your remarks, boy.

Hello, boys. How would you fellows

like to play mutiny

-Mutiny

-Mutiny

-What's that

-I'm glad you asked that.

-What's that

-I'm glad you asked that.

Well, gentlemen, I see that you've

finally made it. Late as usual.

And now a word from your sponsor,

Mr. Yuk Yuk himself.

-Mr. Galveston

-Of Galveston

Correct. And I don't mind saying

I'm considerable riled...

...because you got here so late. And

I hear you been doing this quite often.

-But I can explain.

-I don't want explanations.

And another thing, if you hombres

can't come up with a different type...

...of cartoon show,

it's gonna be the end of the trail.

What's wrong with what we're

doing now

-What kind of show do you want

-I couldn't tell you, boys.

I'm a businessman,

not a showman.

I just want something better

than ordinary cartoons.

-You've gotta come home with me.

-We're in conference.

Our cartoons ain't ordinary.

I see the same thing

on every cotton-picking show.

-Mr. Howard, please.

-Go away, professor, you bother me.

On the other hand, if you can

dream up something brand-new.

Oh, they'll never make it, G.G. Their

contract expires in 10 days.

Okay, meet you here

at 600 in 10 days.

And remember, a completely different

kind of cartoon show...

...or you're all through.

Saddle up my Rolls-Royce, son,

and I'll be on my way.

Right away, G.G.

Gentlemen, if your sponsor

really wants something new...

...I think I've got it.

Electronic cartoons.

-Electronic

-Exactly.

The most startling new process

since the magic lantern.

-Boys, you help me and I'll help you.

-Keep talking, grandpa.

-Come back home with me.

-Wait a minute.

I wanna say that after you left, I caught

that sneaking butler talking to Mars.

I tell you, they're getting ready to

invade us with flying saucers.

I saw myself on his television set.

-He's in orbit again.

-He's flying.

Boys, you've got to help me

until my work is done.

Remember, only us four can save

the world from destruction.

I'd hate to send for the wacky wagon,

he's such a nice old oddball.

Besides, maybe he's got something

to save our show.

I don't wanna find out.

That joint gives me the creeps!

Me too. Did you see

what that kooky butler did

All of a sudden, I'm aiming a gun

that ain't there.

Don't you jugheads realize

we're in a spot

You mean to tell me you'd let fear

stand in the way of our careers

-Yes!

-Do you mean to tell me...

...that you're too chicken

to face up to that kooky butler

Yes!

-With three against one

-Absolutely!

Oh, absolutely

Don't you know that we

absolutely left all our clothes...

...and our only absolutely car up there,

and you still refuse

Absolutely!

We just took a vote, professor.

It's unanimous. We're going.

Excellent, my car is right outside.

Ten days, 240 hours. You'll never

make it. Goodbye, gentlemen.

-Au revoir.

-Skip the gutter.

Break a leg.

Ogg and Zogg.

Here we are, gentlemen.

-What's the matter with you

-Moe, I'm scared.

-Me, that's who.

-And me too.

-What's the matter, you chicken

-Yeah.

Have a little backbone. Follow me.

Carol!

Father, I couldn't imagine

where you've been.

I didn't know that you were--

I thought you were--

Oh, this is Mr. Howard and his friends.

They're staying with us for a while.

-My daughter Carol.

-I'm pleased to meet you.

-Oh, the pleasure's ours.

-Likewise, I'm sure.

I'm sorry if we scared you.

I didn't expect you back from

New York for another couple months.

-I got some time off, so here I am.

-It's wonderful to have you back, dear.

We've got something to attend to.

We'll be right back, dear.

All right, Father. It's nice

to have guests in the house again.

Gentlemen, this way.

I followed him right through there.

-Did you have your glasses on

-Glasses No.

Oh, still chicken, eh

Get going, come on.

Look out for that first step!

Now he tells us.

Not here.

Here, around the corner.

-I don't see no TV set.

-Are you sure it was in here

Of course I'm sure.

It was right over here.

You better put

your glasses on, pop.

Well, they could have been over

there-- No, he was on the right...

...the television set was on the left,

and that was right.

I just don't understand it.

He must have gone and taken

that whole TV outfit with him.

I'll bet there's no

electronic-cartoon gadget either.

I heard that, and that's

where you're wrong, mister.

Come along with me, and

I'll show it to you.

Hey, professor, that's some

contraption you've got there.

Thank you, thank you.

I don't know whether to call it...

...a seagoing heli-tank,

a land-going heli-sub...

...or an airborne what-in-the-hel--

Excuse me. Anyway, it'll be interesting

to see who'll win the battle for it...

...the Army, Navy or Air Force.

Gentlemen, this is the machine

that is going to save our world.

Let's get to something

really important.

Where's the gimmick

that's gonna save our show

Gimmick

Oh, that's over here.

Your sponsor will renew

your contract in a minute...

...after he's seen

what I can do with this.

Okay, put on your glasses.

My electronic process, gentlemen.

No artist ever touched this. The

whole thing was drawn by a machine.

No artist, eh

Boy, that's amazing.

Sensational!

Now, all I have to do is figure out

how to make it move.

There's nothing like a hearty breakfast

to start the day off.

You know, we ought to humor

the professor...

...until he finishes that

cartoon gizmo.

-Yeah, you never know.

-Home cooking, home cooking.

Hey, get your hotcakes here!

Hey, fellas, the landlady!

Well, what can I say, fellas When

I heard the knocking, it rang a bell.

-Oh, it rang a bell

-Yeah, but I saved my hotcakes.

-Well, so you did.

-Yeah, they're mine. I baked them up--
