JOEL: Oh, well. Van Helsing: It feeds on Lucy's precious blood! It is a beast, a monster! TOM: Thus speaks a blood-obsessed mad scientist who can vanish into thin air. JOEL: And nobody picks up on these clues? CROW: It's just another meeting of the Carfax Clue-Ignoring Club. DRACULA IS DRINKING ABSINTHE WITH MINA. JOEL: She seems less uptight now. More fun-loving. CROW: Absinthe makes the heart grow blonder. DRACULA SQUEEZES MINA'S TEARS INTO DIAMONDS. JOEL: Superman does the same trick with coal. TOM: At least the Count remembered to shave his palms. HARKER CLIMBS OUT OF CASTLE DRACULA AND PLUNGES A THOUSAND FEET INTO THE RIVER. JOEL: Didn't that kill Elizaveta? CROW: Four hundred years ago. Since then they made the river much safer. DRACULA AND MINA DANCE AMID SCORES OF CANDLES ON STANDS. TOM: Where are the Originality Police when you need them? CROW: They could run a nice little Sting operation here. JOEL, CROW and TOM SERVO do Sting: "Every little thing she does is magic--" IN TRANSYLVANIA, HARKER STUMBLES INTO A CONVENT. JOEL: What's he doing in a nunnery? TOM: Looking for a girl just like the one he lost. AT HILLINGHAM, LUCY AND MINA DISCUSS A LETTER FROM HARKER. MINA: He's in a convent in Rumania! CROW: See what she can drive a man to? MINA: They say he needs me, but I won't go. TOM: True love is a marvel to behold, LUCY: You've got to go to him, love him, marry him right then and there. MINA LOOKS SHOCKED. CROW (as Mina): You mean--with a man? JOEL: She's saving herself for marriage. TOM: Or saving him from marriage. LUCY: Don't worry about spoiled little Lucy. CROW: We'll just trim off the spoiled bits and put the rest back in the ice box. IN A LIBRARY, VAN HELSING READS ABOUT VAMPIRES. JOEL: Hey, he moves his lips when he reads! TOM: Get him some crayons so he can finish the pretty pictures. MINA ON THE SHIP TO RUMANIA. MINA: With him I felt more alive than I ever had. CROW: With her that's not saying much. IN THE LIBRARY, VAN HELSING LAUGHS AS THE WIND BLOWS. Van Helsing: It is Dracula, the undead, the foe I have pursued all my life! TOM: And he just now figured this out? OUTSIDE HILLINGHAM, VAN HELSING GRABS QUINCEY AND STARTSDRY-HUMPING HIM. CROW: Looks like van Helsing is trying to advance his studies of syphilis. TOM: I think Morris is enjoying it. Van Helsing: She is a bitch of Satan! A whore of the Devil! His concubine! JOEL: He's so endearing. Van Helsing: We will save her soul--but not on an empty stomach! Art! I starve! Feed me! TOM: Got any spare servants lying around? IN LUCY'S BEDROOM, HOLMWOOD GUARDS LUCY. HE HAS A PISTOL IN ONE HAND AND A BRANDY SNIFTER IN THE OTHER. CROW: Lucy can sleep a little more soundly, knowing how safe she is. ARTHUR PASSES OUT, DRUNK. JOEL: He's so devoted to her. DRACULA ENTERS THE BEDROOM AND SPEAKS TO LUCY. DRACULA: I condemn you to eternal death. JOEL: What did she do to deserve that? TOM: And why does he think that's romantic? TWO HUGE WAVES OF BLOOD CRASH THROUGH LUCY'S BEDROOM. CROW: Surf's up! IN THE PARLOR, LUCY LIES DEAD IN A GLASS COFFIN. TOM: Boy, is this going to make Hannibal the Cannibal hungry. JOEL: Why's that? TOM: Peasant under glass! VAN HELSING ENTERS AND SPEAKS TO SEWARD. Van Helsing: I just want to cut off her head and cut out her heart. CROW: It's for an old family recipe. AT NIGHT, IN LUCY'S TOMB. TOM: Look, it's Halloween and they all dressed up as vampire hunters. CROW: No, van Helsing is just raiding the pantry. INSIDE LUCY'S TOMB, HER GLASS COFFIN IS EMPTY. ENRAGED, HOLMWOOD POINTS A GUN AT VAN HELSING. HOLMWOOD: Where is she! What have you done with her! TOM (as van Helsing): *Burp.* LUCY RETURNS WITH A BABY. SHE DROPS THE BABY WHEN SHE SEES HOLMWOOD. LUCY: Arthur! Come to me! JOEL: Dying hasn't changed her, has it? HOLMWOOD LOOKS TURNED ON, IN A HORSE-AND-BUGGY WAY. CROW: She may be dead, but that won't stop him. TOM: If it ever did. LUCY SPEWS BLOOD ON VAN HELSING. CROW: He always did like barbeque sauce. JOEL: Just not on him. LUCY IS DECAPITATED AND HER HEAD GOES SPINNING. TOM: And it's now one-oh as the Carfax Crazies score their first goal against the visiting team. IN A RESTAURANT, A BIG CHUNK OF BEEF IS PLOPPED ONTO A PLATTER. JOEL: Say, what *did* happen to that baby Lucy dropped? VAN HELSING BEGINS TO CARVE. Van Helsing: Eat! JOEL: Not until I know what happened to that baby! CROW: Come on, he's just having another old friend for dinner. Van Helsing: We cut out her heart and burned it. TOM: It's so hard to cook in a strange kitchen. HARKER DENIES DRINKING ANY OF THE VAMPIRESS' BLOOD. MINA LOOKS ECSTATIC. CROW: She doesn't mind that he had sex with them, but the idea of blood-drinking really gets to her! IN CARFAX ABBEY, DRACULA HANGS BATLIKE IN THE RAFTERS. JOEL: Hang in there, sport. THE HUNTERS PROCEED TO TRASH THE PLACE. DRACULA SWOOPS DOWN AND FLIES AWAY. TOM: It's awesome, how these hunters can miss something like that. DRACULA TURNS INTO A GREEN MIST AND SLIPS INTO MINA'S BED. CROW: Lucky for her he's in a romantic mood tonight. TOM: It was Lucy who really brought out the animal in him. JOEL: Mina just isn't that kind of girl. Look at Harker. CROW: You look at him. DRACULA WHINGES ABOUT BEING COLD AND DEAD, AND HAVING KILLED LUCY. THEN HE LETS MINA DRINK HIS BLOOD. THEN HE STOPS HER. DRACULA: I cannot let this be! CROW: It's a bit late now. TOM: He's so fickle. MINA: Take me away from all this death! CROW: Has *she* ever got the wrong travel agent! VAN HELSING SPEAKS AS CARFAX ABBEY BURNS. Van Helsing: Dracula fears us! TOM: Yeah, he might trip over you in the dark. CROW: Funny how it never occured to anyone that the Count might have hidden an earth box somewhere. JOEL: I guess they never read the book. ON BOARD THE ORIENT EXPRESS, HARKER AND MINA COMMISERATE. MINA: What have I done? HARKER:: What have I done to both of us? CROW: As they try to trump one another in the guilt-fest. HARKER'S VOICE-OVER AS THE GANG RIDES HORSES. HARKER: Dracula has outsmarted us again! JOEL: What a surprise. TOM: But the Hole-in-the-Head Gang will catch him yet! CROW: Cut the varmint off at the Borgo Pass, podner! CAMPING IN THE WOODS, VAN HELSING OFFERS MINA DINNER. Van Helsing: You must eat. MINA: I'm not hungry. TOM: At least not when *he* cooks! MINA HURLS THE PLATE ASIDE. CROW: She should show more respect for the dead. VAN HELSING ENTERS CASTLE DRACULA. TOM: The good news is, there's still one doctor in the world who makes house calls . . . A GYPSY WAGON RACES ALONG THE MOUNTAIN ROAD TO THE CASTLE. DRACULA RIDES INSIDE A CRATE. HE LOOKS CRAMPED AND UNCOMFORTABLE. TOM: This is the *last* time he travels coach. CROW (as Dracula): Why did I have to save the one earth-box that the Gypsies filled from the old latrine? IN THE CHAPEL, DRACULA HAS HAD A CLOSE SHAVE AS HE SPEAKS TO MINA: DRACULA: Where is God? He has forsaken me! JOEL: I guess he forgot his big scene at the start of the movie. DRACULA: Give me peace! MINA CHOPS OFF HIS HEAD. TOM: He said "peace," not "the shaft!" JOEL: You don't suppose he meant "a piece," do you? CROW: Asking Mina for that would be pointless. |
