Transcript
(open to Space Tree, entering a room; he bangs a gong with a guitar, causing a sign to drop down from the ceiling reading "Crew Meeting")
SPACE TREE: Crew meeting!
(the Snitch, Clerman, the talking eye, and the alien fly in)
SPACE TREE: All right, is everybody here? I'd check for myself, but I'm a busy man.
SNITCH: I don't see the Commander anywheres.
(enter Commander)
COMMANDER: Yeah, yeah, I'm right here, you friggin' snitch. (to ST) What is this, Space Tree? I'm trying to eat breakfast here. (holds up a bone)
SPACE TREE: (holds up trumpet) Read the sign, C-Money. It's a crew meeting.
COMMANDER: Yeah, crew meeting? Look, I'm not part of any crew, especially one that's led by you. (close-up) Chim-chim-cher-oo.
SPACE TREE: Yeah, well, CREW MEETING! HO! (he hits Commander in the face with the trumpet, knocking him out) Well, all trumpet shenanigans aside, (throws the trumpet away) I do have a deadly serious matter to discuss. (zooming in) I, Space Tree, have been challenged to a duel by none other than a self-proclaimed superhero, The Stem. (holds up picture of the Stem, with Freely McWheely and a Space Dolphin on it. It also has some dialogue, see the Trivia section)
CLERMAN: The Stem, you say? Well, I've heard that she is one sexy, sexified sex-ahero! I mean, superhero.
SPACE TREE: Yeah, self-proclaimed superhero. Don't forget the "self-proclaimed" part. But -- wait, a minute. She's a she? You mean, I'm fighting a girl? (chuckles) Well, then that just means this battle's gonna be even easier than I thought!
EYEBALL: So what in the damn hell does this have to do with us, Tree?
SPACE TREE: Well, in accordance with the official dueling guidelines, I am allowed to bring with me one official Space Tree cheerleader! Now, who wants to volunteer?! (holds up cheerleading shirt)
CLERMAN: "Cheerleader"? Heh, no offense, Space Tree, but screw you to hell. (exits)
EYEBALL: Yeah, why don't you cheerlead my round ass? (exits)
SNITCH: I don't even know where I am... (exits)
SPACE TREE: Oh, come on! Was that really such an unfair request?
ALIEN: Probably.
COMMANDER: (getting up; he has blood all over his face) Oh man, my head... what the hell happened?
SPACE TREE: You mean, you don't remember?
COMMANDER: No, I just woke up on the floor there.
SPACE TREE: Oh. Well, I'll tell you what happened! You agreed to be my cheerleader!
COMMANDER: Cheerleader? Well, I guess that sounds like something I'd agree to, but why was I unconscious on the floor?
SPACE TREE: Unconscious on the floor?! Come on! There's no floors in space! (laughs) You crazy commander! You're such a goof... ball! Ha ha... (sighs) Put on the uniform.
LATER, AT THIS PLACE...
(The Stem is standing there; Space Tree walks up to him/her/it)
SPACE TREE: Well, well, if it isn't the Stem. Fancy seeing you at this... flower. Ha ha ha... You know, instead of "hour".
THE STEM: (deep voice) Oh, yeah, that's a good one.
SPACE TREE: Well, I hope you came prepared, Stem, because I know I did! In fact, I think I hear the sounds of a leading cheer coming right now!
(enter the Commander, not only wearing the shirt, but also a blonde wig, lipstick, fake boobs, and a skirt)
COMMANDER: (flatly) Yeah. Go Space Tree. Hooray.
SPACE TREE: Geez, you call that a cheer? (recoils) And what the hell are you wearing?!?
COMMANDER: What? Cheerleading uniform... Sorry, if I don't meet your standards, Space Tree-
SPACE TREE: No, I mean- You just needed the shirt! You didn't need the- friggin- all this other crap!
COMMANDER: Uhm, I, I read the guideline book and yes, Space Tree, I do have to wear this, alright? I had no choice. You, you think I wanna wear it? Cause, you know, I'm not comfortable like this. I'm gonna go over there...
SPACE TREE: Yeah, just shut up and go.
COMMANDER: (exits) Gimme an S!
THE STEM: Now that you've got your drag queen here, you think we can get this over with?
(two giant metal legs grow out of the Stem's body, making him/her/it twice as large as Space Tree)
SPACE TREE: Whoa, okay, Stem, ah. You know, I thought about this, and I actually came here to say, let's call it a draw. Cause, you know... I just don't think it's fair to hit a woman.
THE STEM: What are you talking about? I'm not a woman.
SPACE TREE: Well... I am! So see you later! I'm off to go bra shopping.
(enter Snitch)
SNITCH: (his second head is talking) He's lying, Stem. Let's get him! I saw him writing his name in the snow earlier!
SPACE TREE: What snow? (the Stem kicks him out of the screen)
(cut to the Commander, still in the cheerleading uniform. the Stem approaches)
THE STEM: And as for you, Cheerleader... (bows down to him) ...Will you marry me?
COMMANDER: Uh, you know, I'm actually a dude.
THE STEM: And I'm an armed robotic flower who could crush you with its enormous feet.
COMMANDER: (vacant, hopeless stare) It's like we were meant to be.
(the screen goes black, in a heart shaped form. roll the end credits)
