Max

Here, Your Blueness... have some nasty medicine!

Chief

It's no longer a blue world, Max. Where could we go?

Max

Argentina?

Chief Meanie

Pepperland is a tickle of joy on the blue belly of the universe. It must be scratched. Right, Max?

Max

Yes, Your Blueness.

Chief Meanie

WHAT? We Meanies only take "no" for an answer! Is that understood, Max?

Max

No, Your Blueness!

Chief Meanie

That's better.

Chief Meanie

Ahh...the hills are alive.

Max
[singing]

With the Sound of Music! [gets punched]

Chief Meanie
[softly]

Glove? Glove? Come here, Glove. Look out there and what do you see? [aggressively] Tell him, Max.

Max
[Young Fred is running away]

Someone running, Glove.

Chief Meanie

Yes...but you'll soon put a stop to that, won't you, Glovesy? Go, Glove; point and - having pointed - pounce! GO!

Get back! Get back! Once more unto the breach, dear Meanies! You're advancing the wrong way! Retreat backwards! Get back there now! [begins to cry] My kingdom for a horse! [stops crying when he confronts Jeremy] I think I'll tear him up into little pieces.

Oh, he does, does he?

Yes, I think I'll make a blueburger out of him.

I don't care what you think. [turns to go]

Oh, you don't, eh?! [grabs Jeremy] We'll soon see about that!

[cornered]

He does, in truth, seem quite annoyed. Some reference material be-be-before I'm destroyed! [reading from his book] "Where ground is soft most often grows, arise! Arise! Arouse! A rose! [a rose sprouts on the Chief Blue Meanie's nose] A rosy nose?

[throws Jeremy down]

Speak your last piece!

Peace! Peace! Supplant the doom and the gloom! Turn off what is sour! Turn into a flower and bloom! Bloom! Bloom! [roses sprout all over the Chief Blue Meanie] Bloom! Bloom! Bloom! Bloom! Bloom!

[now very upset]

I'LL TEAR YOU TO PIECES!!! [screams as he is now covered himself with roses, and runs away with the rest of the Meanies]

Ringo
[Jeremy is dancing among the flowers] [to John, about Jeremy]

First time I saw that Nowhere Man, that Nobody, "I" knew he was Somebody.

You're right. [calling out to the Blue Meanies] Hello, there, blue people! Won't you join us?! Hook up, and otherwise co-mingle?! What do you say?!

[now depressed]

Max.

Max

Your Blue - uh, I mean, er, Your Newness?

It's no longer a blue world, Max. Where could we go?

Max

Argentina?

Are you with us?! Will you join?!

[As Jeremy runs up to the Meanies] [to Max while giving in]

Shall we?

Max
[nodding]

No!

[threatening]

AAAARRRGGGGHHH!!!!!! [grabs Max's ears]

Max
[hastily]

N-N-Y-Y-Y-Y-Yes, Your Newness!

[drops him; now happily]

Yes, Max!

[arriving]

Yes! Ah, yes is a word with a glorious ring! [shakes hand with the Chief Blue Meanie] A true universal utopious thing! [helps Max up] Engenders embracing and chasing of blues, the very best word for the whole world to use! [dances away merrily]

Yes, let us mix, Max. [Max nodded] I've never admitted it before, but my cousin is the Bluebird of Happiness!
