Moon Over Minerva

MOON OVER MINERVA - By: NICHOLAS HOLLANDER Director: ALFRED GIMENO Animation: AKOM PRODUCTIONS COMPANY {Arabeseque in E by Debussy} MINERVA: Da-dum-dum-doodle-di Da-doodle-doodle-di Da-doodle-doodle-di It's not pretty being me. Da-doodle-doodle-di Da-doodle-doodle-di Da-doodle-doodle-di. {Can Can} MINERVA: Dear diary, another lonely day is coming to a close and I have not yet found that special someone. {Hello, Ma Baby} MINERVA: It seems so very unfair that I have no-one to share life's        tender moments. Someone warm and kind with really rich parents. Oh well, tomorrow is another day. Your faithful servant, Minerva Mink. {Walking Though The Park One Day} WILFORD: Dah-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duhhhh! Uh-huh, Minerva Mink, er, um, would you, uh, go out with, uh.... MINERVA: Wilford B. Wolf! Are you asking me out on a date? WILFORD: Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh. MINERVA: I suppose I could wear something sleek and scandalous... WILFORD: Ooooh, I'd like that. MINERVA: I suppose we'll take a long romantic walk under the starlight... WILFORD: Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy! MINERVA: And I'll probably cuddle up close and cozy... WILFORD: Oooooh... MINERVA: ...and whisper sweet nothings in your ear. WILFORD: Oh, yes yes yes yes! MINERVA: Well --- not in *this* life, bub! WILFORD: I can't feel my legs. MINERVA: La la la la la la, dee dee dee dee dee dee; dee dee dee dee dee dee. WILFORD: "Be my love,         My turtle dove,          The pretty little mink          I'm dreaming of!" Girls have an innate weakness for musicians. "My one and only sweetie pie..." MINERVA: Hit the road, Jack! WILFORD: Ain't she neat? WILFORD: I wish Minerva would go out with me. I've tried everything I could. What else can I do but mourn my lost? [Starts to howl] MINERVA: That does it! This has got to stop! WILFORD: Ooooh! {Claire De Lune} I'm feeling a tad strange. Harrrrgh! {Michigan Rag} WILFORD: Arooooo! MINERVA: I'm gonna give that howling fool a piece of my mind! All right, Wilford, I've had enough of this. WILFORD: [In hunk's voice] Oh, hi, Minerva. MINERVA: Hummina, hummina, hummina. Hoo-hoo, hah-hoo, hahoo-- Don't budge, I'll be right back. WILFORD: What's got into that gal? [Moon hides] Achoo! I must be coming down with something. MINERVA: Sorry about that, loverboy; I wanted to slip into something more... comfy. You like? WILFORD: [Dumb voice] You look peachy, Minerva. Simply peachy! MINERVA:  You! Whaddid you do with him? WILFORD: Who? MINERVA: Him! Where is he? {Oh, Where, Oh, Where Has My Little Dog Gone?} MINERVA: Oh loverboy! Where are you? Olly, olly, oxygen free! Just my luck. I finally meet the hunk of my dreams and he        gets scared of by mondo nerdo over there. {Claire De Lune} MINERVA: What a life....Yahooo-ey! Mah man! WILFORD: [Hunk] My, you're acting mighty strange. Maybe tonight's not a good night to...take a long romantic walk under the starlight. MINERVA: Ooooh, I'd like that. WILFORD: We can snuggle up close and cozy. MINERVA: Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh-ho-ho-ho boy! [Moon hides] Oh boy... [Moon comes back out] WILFORD: [Hunk] I'll whisper sweet nothings in your ear. MINERVA: Kiss me, baby! WILFORD: Aroooooo! [Sunrise] MINERVA: Wilford? What?......Say, what kind of crazy wolf are you, anyway? WILFORD: Were.... MINERVA: 'Were'? You're a werewolf? WILFORD: Yup. MINERVA: Wilford? WILFORD: Yes, Minerva? MINERVA: When is the next full moon gonna be? WILFORD: According to most lunar calanders, every 28 days. MINERVA: Good things are worth waiting for...
