Cockroach
[Inside, bugs sit, drink and talk as a saloon piano plays]

I knew an old lady who swallowed a fly...

Wow...

Fly

Move it!

Whoa!

Fly

Hey, waiter! I'm in my soup! I've been working out. Feel my wing. Yo! Two Black Flags over here! All right.

Bug

Hair of the dog you bit.

Cockroach Waitress
[in the bar]

Hey, who ordered the Poo Poo Platter? [a bunch of flies swarm the dish she holds in the air]

Mosquito Waitress

Here you go, Slick. Enjoy.

Slick
[takes one bite and his mouth starts to bubble]

Ow! OW!! HEY I SAID NO SALT!!

Bug

Buzz off!

Oh, pardon me, sir. I was wondering if I could talk to you for a moment. I represent a colony of ants, and I'm looking... I'm looking for tough bugs, you know, mean bugs, the sort of bugs...

Fired by a flea, how humiliating!

Let's face it. We stink.

Tuck

You fired!

Roll

You fired!

Tuck

You fireeeeeed!

[in disgust]

Oh, will you SHUT UP?!

Tuck

Hey!

Roll

You fired!

Someday I will be a beautiful butterfly, and then everything will be better.

I can't believe the troupe is breaking up. We've always been together.

Farewell, my friends.

To the audience we'll never have.

[Slim sips his drop of water, the Fly Brothers enter the Bug Bar.] [gasps and whispers]

Francis! Your boyfriends from the circus are here!

Fly Brother #1
[Thug enters, Francis gasps]

There she is.

Fly Brother #2
[Francis nervously popping lips]

Hello there, girlie bug.

Shoo, fly. Don't bother me.

Fly Brother #1

Say, why don't you tell our pal, Thud.

Fly Brother #1
[Thud slams down behind Francis. Thud growls]

What you said to us at the circus?

Fly Brother #2

Yeah. Something about buzzing around a dung heap?

Excuse me. Hi, I represent an ant colony, and we're just...

Drunk Mosquito

Hey, bartender! Bloody Mary, O-positive. Aha! [given a drop of blood] Oh, yeah... [slurps it quickly and passes out]

Sir?

Fly Brothers
[singing]

Ladybug, ladybug, fly away home.

Fly Brother #1

Not so tough now, are you? All right, clown. Get up and fight like a girl.

Get ready to do the Robin Hood act.

I want to be Little John!

What part can I play?

You see, I'm looking for tough, warrior bugs.

Stand back, ye flies! We are the greatest warriors in all bugdom!

Warrior bugs!

[from a distance, to himself]

My sword!
[Francis grabs Slim and brandishes him like a sword]
