Scenes with Skeeter
3 scenes Skeeter [Verne made his way back to see RJ giving out cookies to the woodland animals.]
That's right. Don't push. Plenty for everybody. Got a box right over here for ya, Penny.
Jeepers, that is good. Kids, eat up! Anything that tastes this good has to be good for you.
You feel that buzz in the back of your skull?
Yeah.
That's called a sugar rush. It's what keeps humans going. It's why they don't hibernate. You top that off with a little of this, and what usually takes you all summer is only gonna take us a week.
[Hammy is about to drink the energy soda can. But RJ he stop him.]
Hold on, Hamsquad. The last thing you need is caffeine. That's right. Come on, dig in. Because this, my friends, is just the beginning.
What?
[All night, the animals started stealing food to fill up the log. RJ gives the porcupine kids down the grass to steal backpacks and a few game consoles. Later on, they steal Gladys food and pizza boxes, much to her anger. RJ and Heather listen to music on a Walkman, The porcupine parents used their quills and steal hot dogs. They play cards in the night]
Read it and weep.
[At a birthday party, Stella popping out of a birthday cake, causing the kids screaming in horror and running away, then RJ and the gang snatches the food, and marks the paper and placing to the hedge, Once Gladys left her house, she saw the destruction in the neighborhood and goes to get her phone call.]
Hello? I need every business listing you have under "exterminator."
[RJ is on a tree, checking the list that the ice cooler is next. He gets a plan and tells the animals to get ready. Verne is still being left out until he heard a car screech and a thud.]
Ozzie!
Timmy
[He heads over. There are boys named skeeter and timmy. Looking down at Ozzie, who is playing dead.]
Whoa, Mom! You hit a possum.
Debbie
Oh, my goodness.
Skeeter Do you think it's dead?
Oh, no.
Skeeter Wow!
Boy
Touch it.
Skeeter Can I poke him?
Debbie
No! These poor little creatures.
Shelbyː What's going on.
Mackenzie
Come check it out. It's a dead possum.
[The animals made their way to the cooler while the humans gathered around.]
Debbie? I don't remember seeing a permit app for a gathering. Groups of more than one who wish to get... AAAH!
Debbie
[to her son]
Timmy, get the shovel from the car.
[Ozzie gasps. RJ motions for Ozzie to do something.]
Lights fading, limbs growing cold. - I see a tunnel.
Mother, is that you beckoning me into the light? Must move toward the light.
Timmy
What do you think he's doing?
Skeeter Maybe we knocked his brains loose or something.
I'm tellin' you, you went to far this time. Let's get out of here and leave this [picks up the blue cooler] You're dangerous! You're insane?!
Nice catch Verne.
Yes! Yes! Sweet mother, I'm going HOME! [coughs] Goodbye, cruel world!? [notices the flowerpot on the sidewalk] Oh! Ooh! [Whispers] Rosebud. [groans as he spins around, then falls on the ground and passes out]
Skeeter Now can I poke him?
Debbie
No!
You see? This is exactly why I called the exterminator, to kill them before they get hurt like this.
Everybody, get out of here right now!
Right! Kids, grab those handles. Get the stuff.
What?
Here we go. I threw out my back.
[They carry the cooler but they hit a mailbox, causing the food to be spilled out. Verne looked and saw what appears to be a truck.]
Let's go.
Get down.
[They gather up the food and hide. Vern hides behind the car and watches the truck arrive.]
Oh, no.
[Shelby gasps Amazed] [First Words]
Ha! I believe someone phoned about an animal problem? The solution is standing before you. Dwayne LaFontant is here.
Where have you been? I'm throwing a "Welcome to the Neighborhood" party, tomorrow and so far Debbie's car has killed more animals than you have.
Stand down, sister. I personally guarantee that there will not be a living thing at this party. The Verminator is on the job.
Now, what do we have here? [inhales] Didelphis marsupialis virginianus. Approximately ten pounds. [inhales] Male.
Debbie
I think he's dead.
Oh, really? Do you in fact have a associates degree from VermTech? I think he wants you to think he's dead.
Move, move! That's it! Run! Go, voluntary shock state.
I certainly hope he's not in any pain.
AAHH! Kill it! Kill it!
Thank you all for coming! You were a great audience!
Boys
Oh, man!
All right, what am I up against here? Possum, porcupine, skunk, squirrel, raccoon, amphibian.
Reptile.
No. Reptile.
