¶¶¶
2
00:00:32,133 --> 00:00:34,767
I'd like everyone to
give a round of applause
3
00:00:34,769 --> 00:00:37,102
to that Caped Crime
Buster,
4
00:00:37,104 --> 00:00:41,006
that Veiled Vermin, that
Slimy Samaritan...
5
00:00:41,008 --> 00:00:43,375
The Masked Maggot!
6
00:00:43,377 --> 00:00:45,411
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
7
00:00:45,413 --> 00:00:47,346
Tell me, oh Masked Maggot...
8
00:00:47,348 --> 00:00:49,148
Yesss...
9
00:00:49,150 --> 00:00:51,383
Why do you wear that
costume?
10
00:00:51,385 --> 00:00:53,719
What costume?
11
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,054
That costume! That cape,
that cowl, that cloak...
12
00:00:56,057 --> 00:00:57,756
Oh, the maggot suit.
13
00:00:57,758 --> 00:01:02,761
I wear it to strike fear
into the heart of evildoers.
14
00:01:02,763 --> 00:01:05,998
Ooooh, I'm frightened
already.
15
00:01:07,268 --> 00:01:08,934
This is a true story.
16
00:01:08,936 --> 00:01:12,504
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine...
17
00:01:12,873 --> 00:01:14,873
Oh, Kate thought she was so clever.
18
00:01:14,875 --> 00:01:16,875
She'd lied, cheated and swindled her way across
19
00:01:16,877 --> 00:01:20,779
the North African desert to the Valley of the Kings.
20
00:01:20,781 --> 00:01:23,382
Her card said "Egyptologist",
21
00:01:23,384 --> 00:01:27,953
but "Tomb Robber" was a more apt description.
22
00:01:27,955 --> 00:01:30,756
And now by sheer luck, she'd stumbled on the
23
00:01:30,758 --> 00:01:34,493
resting-place of Memnon the Evil.
24
00:01:34,495 --> 00:01:36,361
Legends told of his vast treasure,
25
00:01:36,363 --> 00:01:40,265
guarded by an "army of gold"...
26
00:01:42,470 --> 00:01:44,536
At the entry of the tomb, Kate unfolded the ancient
27
00:01:44,538 --> 00:01:48,841
parchment that she'd purchased with a bag of fool's gold.
28
00:01:48,843 --> 00:01:50,809
By pressing hieroglyphs of the sun,
29
00:01:50,811 --> 00:01:53,946
moon and the stars, she triggered a latch.
30
00:01:54,081 --> 00:01:55,881
The door hissed open.
31
00:01:55,883 --> 00:01:58,083
Child's play.
32
00:01:58,085 --> 00:02:01,053
As she passed the threshold, she saw a treasure trove
33
00:02:01,055 --> 00:02:03,789
beyond anything she'd ever imagined.
34
00:02:04,058 --> 00:02:06,225
Kate scooped up handfuls of gold,
35
00:02:06,227 --> 00:02:11,096
jewels and diamonds - filled bags of them.
36
00:02:11,232 --> 00:02:13,932
She peered into the darkness of the next room.
37
00:02:13,934 --> 00:02:17,803
Lo and behold, there was indeed an army of gold -
38
00:02:17,805 --> 00:02:20,539
life size figures of people from around the world,
39
00:02:20,541 --> 00:02:23,175
from ancient Egyptian through Phoenician,
40
00:02:23,177 --> 00:02:27,112
Elizabethan - right up to almost modern day.
41
00:02:28,415 --> 00:02:30,315
She was about to step into the chamber,
42
00:02:30,317 --> 00:02:34,453
when a mote of dust twinkled in a tiny shaft of light.
43
00:02:35,089 --> 00:02:37,289
"Ah Ha!" smiled Kate.
44
00:02:37,291 --> 00:02:40,392
She stepped back and plucked a bauble from the ground.
45
00:02:40,394 --> 00:02:42,327
Then gently tossed the jeweled trinket
46
00:02:42,329 --> 00:02:45,197
into the beam of light.
47
00:02:45,199 --> 00:02:47,332
There was a groan - as if the whole temple
48
00:02:47,334 --> 00:02:48,901
had awakened.
49
00:02:48,903 --> 00:02:51,303
Then floors rumbled, walls shook.
50
00:02:51,305 --> 00:02:53,272
And the place where she'd stood moments before
51
00:02:53,274 --> 00:02:57,509
disappeared, leaving a gaping chasm.
52
00:02:58,579 --> 00:03:03,048
She edged her way around the perimeter of the hole.
53
00:03:03,050 --> 00:03:04,983
"Is that the best you can do?"
54
00:03:04,985 --> 00:03:08,520
she whispered to the ghosts in the tomb.
55
00:03:10,558 --> 00:03:12,457
The golden army was wondrous.
56
00:03:12,459 --> 00:03:14,893
Hundreds of men and women from the four corners
57
00:03:14,895 --> 00:03:18,597
of the globe were sculpted in the tiniest detail.
58
00:03:18,599 --> 00:03:21,033
But Kate didn't marvel for long.
59
00:03:21,035 --> 00:03:23,602
She knew that even greater treasure lay in the
60
00:03:23,604 --> 00:03:25,938
burial chamber.
61
00:03:27,074 --> 00:03:29,107
Kate found the secret lever that opened
62
00:03:29,109 --> 00:03:30,609
a huge rock door.
63
00:03:30,611 --> 00:03:34,580
She drew a sharp breath as she entered the vast room.
64
00:03:36,150 --> 00:03:39,151
The sarcophagus of the evil Pharaoh lay at the feet of a
65
00:03:39,153 --> 00:03:41,320
colossal stone figure.
66
00:03:41,322 --> 00:03:44,590
Seated, it was easily 40 feet tall.
67
00:03:44,592 --> 00:03:47,626
In the center of its forehead was a huge ruby,
68
00:03:47,628 --> 00:03:51,530
the legendary "Third Eye of Memnon".
69
00:03:52,366 --> 00:03:55,400
Kate opened her pack and set to work.
70
00:03:55,402 --> 00:03:59,071
Using pitons and ropes she scaled the colossus.
71
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,608
She gazed into its sightless eyes,
72
00:04:02,610 --> 00:04:05,310
as with her knife, she pried the giant ruby
73
00:04:05,312 --> 00:04:07,479
from its forehead.
74
00:04:08,482 --> 00:04:12,150
She was now rich beyond all imagination and in the
75
00:04:12,152 --> 00:04:14,219
coming weeks she'd see the tomb
76
00:04:14,221 --> 00:04:17,356
emptied of its treasure.
77
00:04:17,358 --> 00:04:19,458
Kate raced across the floor when suddenly
78
00:04:19,460 --> 00:04:21,627
the room began to shake.
79
00:04:22,062 --> 00:04:23,061
Earthquake!
80
00:04:23,063 --> 00:04:24,096
She looked back.
81
00:04:24,098 --> 00:04:25,130
Something odd.
82
00:04:25,132 --> 00:04:26,665
Had the statue moved?
83
00:04:26,667 --> 00:04:29,568
Then... without warming - it stood up!
84
00:04:29,570 --> 00:04:31,937
IT WAS ALIVE!
85
00:04:32,406 --> 00:04:34,189
She ran!
86
00:04:34,190 --> 00:04:35,973
Out of the burial chamber, past the army of gold.
87
00:04:35,976 --> 00:04:37,175
Then the pit!
88
00:04:37,177 --> 00:04:38,477
There was no time to go around it -
89
00:04:38,479 --> 00:04:39,611
the giant was coming!
90
00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:41,246
So she vaulted it.
91
00:04:41,248 --> 00:04:43,682
The giant was gaining, but Kate could see the door!
92
00:04:43,684 --> 00:04:46,285
He leapt the pit - she could tell there was no way he was
93
00:04:46,287 --> 00:04:47,986
going to fit through the door.
94
00:04:47,988 --> 00:04:50,155
She was going to make it!
95
00:04:50,624 --> 00:04:53,325
The evil giant drew a magic sword from thin air.
96
00:04:53,327 --> 00:04:54,493
He flung it.
97
00:04:54,495 --> 00:04:56,361
Kate saw it coming... and dodged it.
98
00:04:56,363 --> 00:04:59,064
The glowing sword tilted, swiveled in mid-air!
99
00:04:59,066 --> 00:05:01,400
There was no escape.
100
00:05:01,402 --> 00:05:03,702
Through her greed, she'd been rewarded with the thing
101
00:05:03,704 --> 00:05:05,537
she wanted most.
102
00:05:05,539 --> 00:05:06,738
Gold.
103
00:05:06,740 --> 00:05:10,676
As much as she'd want - forever.
104
00:05:10,678 --> 00:05:14,446
She'd been changed into a golden statue.
105
00:05:14,448 --> 00:05:16,982
The evil One examined his new toy.
106
00:05:16,984 --> 00:05:21,053
Then he carefully positioned her amongst his golden army.
107
00:05:21,555 --> 00:05:24,623
He refastened the ruby but as Memnon prepared to sit,
108
00:05:24,625 --> 00:05:28,760
he paused and looked at the arm of his throne.
109
00:05:29,563 --> 00:05:32,764
"Chalk up another one...", he thought.
110
00:05:33,434 --> 00:05:35,033
This is a true story.
111
00:05:35,035 --> 00:05:37,369
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine.
112
00:05:37,371 --> 00:05:39,338
Memnon, the Evil.
113
00:05:39,340 --> 00:05:41,740
"Friend", you ask?
114
00:05:41,742 --> 00:05:44,076
Employer, actually.
115
00:05:44,078 --> 00:05:48,580
I dust his golden army, every Thursday...
116
00:05:51,618 --> 00:05:55,620
So tell me, Masked Maggot,
what crime fighting tools
117
00:05:55,622 --> 00:05:57,089
do you have?
118
00:05:57,091 --> 00:05:59,725
Well, for starters, I
have...
119
00:05:59,727 --> 00:06:01,693
my utility belt.
120
00:06:01,695 --> 00:06:03,562
Oh, what's that?
121
00:06:03,564 --> 00:06:08,767
It contains secret stuff, like
my maggot aerosol spray.
122
00:06:08,769 --> 00:06:10,569
Maggot aerosol spray?
123
00:06:10,571 --> 00:06:12,337
What does that do?
124
00:06:12,339 --> 00:06:15,640
Well, it makes it smell like
I'm here even when I'm not.
125
00:06:15,642 --> 00:06:17,476
Here, have a sniff.
126
00:06:18,112 --> 00:06:21,446
[SOUNDS OF DISGUST]
127
00:06:21,448 --> 00:06:23,515
What's that?
128
00:06:23,516 --> 00:06:25,583
That is my greatest crime
fighting weapon of all...
129
00:06:25,586 --> 00:06:27,753
the Maggot Mobile.
130
00:06:27,755 --> 00:06:29,554
Oh, this I gotta see...
131
00:06:29,556 --> 00:06:32,724
right after our next Freaky
Story.
132
00:06:34,128 --> 00:06:35,794
This is a true story.
133
00:06:35,795 --> 00:06:37,461
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine...
134
00:06:37,464 --> 00:06:38,497
Maggie.
135
00:06:38,499 --> 00:06:40,298
Now, she'd had a strange life -
136
00:06:40,300 --> 00:06:41,800
never known any other children.
137
00:06:41,802 --> 00:06:44,403
It's on account of how she was raised...
138
00:06:44,405 --> 00:06:47,506
You see, her parents were famous Biologists working on
139
00:06:47,508 --> 00:06:50,475
ways to save the endangered animals of the rainforest
140
00:06:50,477 --> 00:06:52,144
and the like.
141
00:06:52,145 --> 00:06:53,812
And because of that, Maggie'd spent her entire
142
00:06:53,814 --> 00:06:57,816
life on expeditions to lush tropic rainforests or dry
143
00:06:57,818 --> 00:07:01,086
African Savannah.
144
00:07:01,088 --> 00:07:03,755
Not that Maggie was lonely or lacked for anything.
145
00:07:03,757 --> 00:07:06,358
There were always lots of people around.
146
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,294
But they were all grown ups, who never had any time to
147
00:07:09,296 --> 00:07:10,629
play with her.
148
00:07:10,631 --> 00:07:13,265
And that's where Maggie's Monkey came in.
149
00:07:13,267 --> 00:07:15,500
Truth be told, he wasn't really a monkey.
150
00:07:15,502 --> 00:07:16,735
He was a gorilla.
151
00:07:16,737 --> 00:07:18,837
A four hundred and eighty-six pound Bull
152
00:07:18,839 --> 00:07:21,807
gorilla Maggie decided to name Mister Bigglesworth -
153
00:07:21,809 --> 00:07:25,143
and he was Maggie's best friend.
154
00:07:25,546 --> 00:07:27,379
Whenever she needed someone to talk to,
155
00:07:27,381 --> 00:07:29,781
laugh with, or even a kind shoulder to cry on,
156
00:07:29,783 --> 00:07:33,351
Mister Bigglesworth was there for Maggie.
157
00:07:33,353 --> 00:07:35,854
He helped her with her correspondence school
158
00:07:35,856 --> 00:07:38,123
lessons and her gymnastics, but I fear,
159
00:07:38,125 --> 00:07:42,127
he was no help at all when it came to ballet.
160
00:07:42,129 --> 00:07:44,296
But alas, all good things must come to an end,
161
00:07:44,298 --> 00:07:47,232
for one day, when Maggie received her correspondence
162
00:07:47,234 --> 00:07:50,702
school graduation diploma, a sad realization dawned
163
00:07:50,704 --> 00:07:52,621
upon them.
164
00:07:52,622 --> 00:07:54,539
She'd done so splendidly well at school that she'd
165
00:07:54,541 --> 00:07:57,375
won a full scholarship to the University.
166
00:07:57,377 --> 00:08:00,445
But she'd have to leave family and friends
167
00:08:00,447 --> 00:08:02,447
to further her education...
168
00:08:02,449 --> 00:08:05,417
As she packed her things and prepared to leave for the
169
00:08:05,419 --> 00:08:07,886
University, tears began to well up
170
00:08:07,888 --> 00:08:10,222
in the great ape's eyes.
171
00:08:10,224 --> 00:08:12,757
Maggie tried to comfort him, saying that she'd write and
172
00:08:12,759 --> 00:08:15,894
send photos - but it just didn't seem to do the trick.
173
00:08:15,896 --> 00:08:19,297
Mister Bigglesworth was inconsolable.
174
00:08:19,299 --> 00:08:22,200
Months passed as Maggie began her studies
175
00:08:22,202 --> 00:08:23,702
at the University.
176
00:08:23,704 --> 00:08:25,504
Finally, Maggie's parents received her
177
00:08:25,506 --> 00:08:27,239
first report card.
178
00:08:27,241 --> 00:08:29,774
They opened it with great expectations,
179
00:08:29,776 --> 00:08:34,246
but she wasn't doing nearly as well as they'd hoped.
180
00:08:34,248 --> 00:08:37,749
It was quite obvious to all that Maggie was homesick
181
00:08:37,751 --> 00:08:40,418
for Mister Bigglesworth too.
182
00:08:40,420 --> 00:08:42,587
Her troubles compounded themselves during
183
00:08:42,589 --> 00:08:44,322
the second semester.
184
00:08:44,324 --> 00:08:46,525
She'd fallen so far behind that it appeared that she
185
00:08:46,527 --> 00:08:49,194
was in grave danger of flunking out.
186
00:08:49,196 --> 00:08:51,696
And it was with that feeling of trepidation that she
187
00:08:51,698 --> 00:08:55,333
returned home during spring-break.
188
00:08:56,436 --> 00:08:58,403
They greeted her at the airstrip.
189
00:08:58,405 --> 00:09:00,705
Everyone was there; her parents,
190
00:09:00,707 --> 00:09:02,707
the other biologists and of course,
191
00:09:02,709 --> 00:09:04,809
Mister Bigglesworth.
192
00:09:04,811 --> 00:09:07,913
They had a marvelous time - everyone exchanged stories,
193
00:09:07,915 --> 00:09:10,248
bringing each other up-to-date on goings on at
194
00:09:10,250 --> 00:09:12,417
school and in the field.
195
00:09:12,419 --> 00:09:14,920
But most of all, Maggie was just happy to be home with
196
00:09:14,922 --> 00:09:17,455
her dear friend, Mister Bigglesworth,
197
00:09:17,457 --> 00:09:20,959
for it seems he had been in a deep state of depression.
198
00:09:20,961 --> 00:09:24,863
No amount of bananas could erase his perpetual frown.
199
00:09:24,865 --> 00:09:27,465
They'd spent a marvelous two weeks;
200
00:09:27,467 --> 00:09:29,834
hiking, swimming and playing together as if they'd
201
00:09:29,836 --> 00:09:31,303
never been apart.
202
00:09:31,305 --> 00:09:33,705
But then it was time for Maggie to return
203
00:09:33,707 --> 00:09:36,508
to University.
204
00:09:36,877 --> 00:09:39,811
Mister Bigglesworth cried as she packed her bags.
205
00:09:39,813 --> 00:09:41,913
He was so heart-broken, he was unable even
206
00:09:41,915 --> 00:09:43,832
to see her off.
207
00:09:43,833 --> 00:09:45,750
He must have gone to some remote corner of the jungle
208
00:09:45,752 --> 00:09:48,286
to cry his ape eyes out.
209
00:09:48,288 --> 00:09:49,788
They waited as long as they could,
210
00:09:49,790 --> 00:09:52,324
but no one could find the great ape - and the weather
211
00:09:52,326 --> 00:09:56,595
was closing in, so Maggie left without saying goodbye.
212
00:09:57,598 --> 00:09:59,864
The weeks passed and Maggie'd made a dramatic
213
00:09:59,866 --> 00:10:01,666
reversal at school.
214
00:10:01,668 --> 00:10:04,603
The marks on her essays and written work rebounded
215
00:10:04,605 --> 00:10:06,738
to their former stellar heights.
216
00:10:06,740 --> 00:10:09,507
So much so, that the school decided to award her the
217
00:10:09,509 --> 00:10:12,644
prize for Most Improved Student.
218
00:10:12,646 --> 00:10:15,847
Her parents were thrilled - and they made the long
219
00:10:15,849 --> 00:10:19,317
journey to the University for the awards presentation.
220
00:10:19,319 --> 00:10:21,653
But when they got there, they realized that Maggie
221
00:10:21,655 --> 00:10:23,955
would ask about Mister Bigglesworth
222
00:10:23,957 --> 00:10:25,490
and how he was doing.
223
00:10:25,492 --> 00:10:27,859
And the problem was - the monkey was gone -
224
00:10:27,861 --> 00:10:29,928
and they feared the worst.
225
00:10:29,930 --> 00:10:32,330
The great ape was so distraught at the loss of
226
00:10:32,332 --> 00:10:35,000
Maggie's company that he had wandered off into the jungle
227
00:10:35,002 --> 00:10:38,036
- possibly never to be seen again.
228
00:10:38,038 --> 00:10:41,673
So they attended the ceremony and watched with
229
00:10:41,675 --> 00:10:45,010
great pride as Maggie accepted her award.
230
00:10:45,012 --> 00:10:47,045
As they walked back to her dorm room,
231
00:10:47,047 --> 00:10:50,048
her mother asked, "Um, Aren't you going to ask
232
00:10:50,050 --> 00:10:52,417
about Mister Bigglesworth, dear?"
233
00:10:52,419 --> 00:10:54,452
"Oh, he's fine", Maggie said happily
234
00:10:54,454 --> 00:10:55,787
as she opened her door.
235
00:10:55,789 --> 00:10:57,689
For inside sat the great ape,
236
00:10:57,691 --> 00:11:01,059
happily pounding away at her typewriter.
237
00:11:01,061 --> 00:11:02,527
"Hey!" she said.
238
00:11:02,529 --> 00:11:04,963
"Is my book report ready yet?"
239
00:11:04,965 --> 00:11:06,564
This is a true story.
240
00:11:06,566 --> 00:11:08,500
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine.
241
00:11:08,502 --> 00:11:10,635
Maggie - who with the help of her friend,
242
00:11:10,637 --> 00:11:13,638
Mister Bigglesworth, "monkey'd around" all the
243
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,609
way to a Doctorate in English Literature.
244
00:11:18,445 --> 00:11:21,046
Nice car, Maurice...
245
00:11:21,048 --> 00:11:22,814
Oh, That's Masked Maggot.
246
00:11:22,816 --> 00:11:24,616
Don't give away my secret
identity.
247
00:11:24,618 --> 00:11:26,117
Oh, your secret's safe with
me.
248
00:11:26,119 --> 00:11:28,086
[CHUCKLE]
249
00:11:28,088 --> 00:11:29,688
Oh, nice tires.
250
00:11:29,690 --> 00:11:31,022
Yeah, Mag wheels.
251
00:11:31,024 --> 00:11:32,857
Get it, "mag'?
[CHUCKLE]
252
00:11:32,859 --> 00:11:34,125
I get it, I get it...
253
00:11:34,127 --> 00:11:35,894
Oh, Oh, What's that?
254
00:11:35,896 --> 00:11:37,862
Oh, That?
That's a Rocket launcher.
255
00:11:37,864 --> 00:11:39,597
Un, hunh, and that?
256
00:11:39,599 --> 00:11:41,099
Oil slick.
257
00:11:41,101 --> 00:11:43,768
Hmmm, Oooo! Ooh! And
what about THAT one?
258
00:11:43,770 --> 00:11:45,503
What does that thing do?
259
00:11:45,505 --> 00:11:47,105
Would you like to give her a
try?
260
00:11:47,107 --> 00:11:49,674
Oooo, Would I?
261
00:11:51,411 --> 00:11:53,712
This is a true story.
262
00:11:53,713 --> 00:11:56,014
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine... Lou.
263
00:11:56,016 --> 00:11:57,982
Now, ever since he was a little guy,
264
00:11:57,984 --> 00:12:00,618
Lou'd always heard tales about what a great sheriff
265
00:12:00,620 --> 00:12:03,822
his Great-Gran'dad "Buffalo" Bob had been.
266
00:12:03,824 --> 00:12:06,925
Word was, that Buffalo Bob had been the "rootin'-est
267
00:12:06,927 --> 00:12:09,794
tootin'-est" Sheriff the town of Dry Gulch had ever
268
00:12:09,796 --> 00:12:12,864
seen - and every one in Lou's family had tried to
269
00:12:12,866 --> 00:12:15,633
live up to his shinin' example.
270
00:12:15,635 --> 00:12:18,436
Why, there was the story about how Buffalo Bob
271
00:12:18,438 --> 00:12:21,539
single-handedly brought the evil Hodgins' gang
272
00:12:21,541 --> 00:12:23,158
to justice.
273
00:12:23,159 --> 00:12:24,776
Or, the time that he'd stopped a bank robbery while
274
00:12:24,778 --> 00:12:27,812
giving a talk on traffic safety to Miss Sugarloaf's
275
00:12:27,814 --> 00:12:29,180
grade school class...
276
00:12:29,182 --> 00:12:31,149
and not missin' a beat.
277
00:12:31,151 --> 00:12:33,551
Oh, there were lots of tales about the sheriff,
278
00:12:33,553 --> 00:12:37,689
but the most telling is how ol' Buffalo Bob met his end
279
00:12:37,691 --> 00:12:39,524
- while staring down the meanest,
280
00:12:39,526 --> 00:12:42,927
most vile evil-doers ever to darken the doorsteps
281
00:12:42,929 --> 00:12:45,530
of Dry Gulch.
282
00:12:45,532 --> 00:12:48,466
Seems they'd been on a crime spree and the bad guys were
283
00:12:48,468 --> 00:12:50,168
a-makin' their getaway.
284
00:12:50,170 --> 00:12:52,604
Sheriff Bob was in hot pursuit when all of a sudden
285
00:12:52,606 --> 00:12:56,007
the bad guys got stuck on the train tracks.
286
00:12:56,009 --> 00:12:59,511
They were stuck fast - and the way those bad guys were
287
00:12:59,513 --> 00:13:03,181
wedged in - they couldn't open the doors to get out.
288
00:13:03,183 --> 00:13:06,484
Well, wouldn't you know it, but the 5:15 from Capital
289
00:13:06,486 --> 00:13:08,820
City was a-barreling down the tracks straight at the
290
00:13:08,822 --> 00:13:10,655
bad guys' get-away car.
291
00:13:10,657 --> 00:13:11,890
They were trapped.
292
00:13:11,892 --> 00:13:13,491
There was no escape.
293
00:13:13,493 --> 00:13:15,193
And that's when Sheriff Buffalo Bob
294
00:13:15,195 --> 00:13:16,961
sprung into action.
295
00:13:16,963 --> 00:13:19,964
He hopped into his police car and started a-pushin'
296
00:13:19,966 --> 00:13:22,000
the getaway car off the tracks.
297
00:13:22,002 --> 00:13:24,202
The train was getting' closer - and closer.
298
00:13:24,204 --> 00:13:27,205
So, Sheriff Bob shifted 'er into low gear
299
00:13:27,207 --> 00:13:28,807
and floored it.
300
00:13:28,809 --> 00:13:31,142
The getaway car popped right off the tracks.
301
00:13:31,144 --> 00:13:33,545
The bad guys gunned the engine and took off,
302
00:13:33,547 --> 00:13:36,181
leaving Sheriff Bob in a cloud of dust.
303
00:13:36,183 --> 00:13:38,950
That's when he realized that now
304
00:13:38,952 --> 00:13:40,718
HE was stuck on the tracks.
305
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,155
Well, Buffalo Bob always wanted to be remembered as a
306
00:13:44,157 --> 00:13:48,092
great lawman - and he certainly got his wish...
307
00:13:48,628 --> 00:13:51,563
So now Lou was tellin' his pals all about the exploits
308
00:13:51,565 --> 00:13:54,532
of his Great-Gran'dad when they decided to visit the
309
00:13:54,534 --> 00:13:56,801
sight of the old train wreck.
310
00:13:56,803 --> 00:13:58,636
It was Friday the thirteenth,
311
00:13:58,638 --> 00:14:01,873
- the thirty-second anniversary of Buffalo Bob's
312
00:14:01,875 --> 00:14:05,243
untimely undoing - and the boys drove "Ol' Betsy",
313
00:14:05,245 --> 00:14:09,247
Lou's rusty old pickup truck to the level crossing.
314
00:14:09,249 --> 00:14:11,883
They figured they'd wait for a couple of trains to pass,
315
00:14:11,885 --> 00:14:14,052
and kick around some dust to look for bank robber's
316
00:14:14,054 --> 00:14:15,720
loot or something.
317
00:14:15,722 --> 00:14:18,122
It was 'round midnight when the boys decided
318
00:14:18,124 --> 00:14:20,291
to call it a night.
319
00:14:20,293 --> 00:14:23,061
The old rattletrap chugged forward a couple of feet and
320
00:14:23,063 --> 00:14:26,264
then died - dust in the carburetor or something,
321
00:14:26,266 --> 00:14:29,634
And wouldn't you know it? Right on the tracks.
322
00:14:29,636 --> 00:14:32,537
Well, this "weirded" out the boys real good.
323
00:14:32,539 --> 00:14:34,939
They hopped from the pickup and started a-pushin',
324
00:14:34,941 --> 00:14:36,941
trying to get her off the tracks.
325
00:14:36,943 --> 00:14:37,976
But she was stuck tight.
326
00:14:37,978 --> 00:14:39,777
[distant train whistle]
327
00:14:39,779 --> 00:14:41,279
"Wazzat?" asked Lou.
328
00:14:41,281 --> 00:14:44,215
"Dunno", said Frankie as he looked at his watch.
329
00:14:44,217 --> 00:14:46,117
Couldn't be a train this time o'night.
330
00:14:46,119 --> 00:14:49,754
But then he realized the second hand wasn't moving.
331
00:14:49,756 --> 00:14:52,156
His watch had stopped.
332
00:14:52,158 --> 00:14:54,325
An' that's when they saw the bright headlight of the
333
00:14:54,327 --> 00:14:57,896
train - off in the distance - coming straight at them.
334
00:14:57,898 --> 00:14:59,631
"Hurry guys!", screamed Lou.
335
00:14:59,633 --> 00:15:01,866
"We's gotta get Ol' Betsy offa the tracks!"
336
00:15:01,868 --> 00:15:05,236
Lou jumped into the car and tried to start the motor.
337
00:15:05,238 --> 00:15:07,972
It turned and turned but wouldn't catch.
338
00:15:07,974 --> 00:15:10,008
"C'mon Lou! It's too late.
339
00:15:10,010 --> 00:15:11,276
Leave it!"
340
00:15:11,278 --> 00:15:13,278
But Lou kept turnin' that key!
341
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,648
Then it was too late.
342
00:15:16,883 --> 00:15:19,651
The guys closed their eyes as the train roared past.
343
00:15:19,653 --> 00:15:21,853
When it was gone, they waited for the cloud
344
00:15:21,855 --> 00:15:23,855
of dust to clear.
345
00:15:23,857 --> 00:15:27,025
They opened their eyes and looked down the track.
346
00:15:27,027 --> 00:15:30,628
Ol' Betsy was sitting on the other side of the tracks.
347
00:15:30,630 --> 00:15:33,865
"Lou! How'd you get her started so fast?"
348
00:15:33,867 --> 00:15:35,633
"I didn't", said Lou.
349
00:15:35,635 --> 00:15:37,335
"I thought you guys pushed me..."
350
00:15:37,337 --> 00:15:39,771
"Uh. No. It wasn't us..."
351
00:15:39,773 --> 00:15:43,241
"Gee. Felt like I was drop kicked by a mule..."
352
00:15:43,243 --> 00:15:45,610
Lou got out and they walked around to look
353
00:15:45,612 --> 00:15:47,145
at the back of the truck.
354
00:15:47,147 --> 00:15:51,082
There on the tailgate, were a pair of handprints.
355
00:15:51,084 --> 00:15:53,284
Like someone with superhuman strength had been
356
00:15:53,286 --> 00:15:55,053
pushing back there.
357
00:15:55,055 --> 00:15:57,889
Then Lou noticed something a-lying in the dirt,
358
00:15:57,891 --> 00:15:59,857
glinting in the moonlight...
359
00:15:59,859 --> 00:16:01,759
He bent down to pick it up.
360
00:16:01,761 --> 00:16:05,129
It was a badge from the Dry Gulch Sheriff's Department.
361
00:16:05,131 --> 00:16:08,099
The same kind that his Granddad Sheriff "Buffalo" Bob
362
00:16:08,101 --> 00:16:10,702
would have worn that night.
363
00:16:10,704 --> 00:16:13,871
The one that was never found...
364
00:16:14,808 --> 00:16:17,809
...until now...
365
00:16:17,811 --> 00:16:19,310
This is a true story.
366
00:16:19,312 --> 00:16:21,279
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine.
367
00:16:21,281 --> 00:16:23,381
And Lou's still got that old Badge.
368
00:16:23,383 --> 00:16:27,085
And he wears it with pride - in his new job as Sheriff
369
00:16:27,087 --> 00:16:28,987
in the Town of Dry Gulch.
370
00:16:28,989 --> 00:16:32,790
Where he always stays on the right side of the tracks.
371
00:16:33,193 --> 00:16:36,194
Now, tell me, oh
Masked Maggoty one,
372
00:16:36,196 --> 00:16:38,730
what does, uh, what does
this little button here do?
373
00:16:38,732 --> 00:16:39,797
Which button there?
374
00:16:39,799 --> 00:16:40,999
The little red one, right
there.
375
00:16:41,001 --> 00:16:42,934
Oh the, oh the [CHUCKLE]
that little red one.
376
00:16:42,936 --> 00:16:44,235
I wouldn't touch that one if
I were you.
377
00:16:44,237 --> 00:16:46,671
Oh?
And why NOT?!
378
00:16:46,673 --> 00:16:48,006
[SPRONG!]
379
00:16:48,008 --> 00:16:50,141
Ejector seat.
[LAUGH]
380
00:16:51,811 --> 00:16:53,778
This is a true story.
381
00:16:53,780 --> 00:16:57,715
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine
382
00:16:58,918 --> 00:17:01,386
It was a night in December, In the year of our Lord,
383
00:17:01,388 --> 00:17:04,355
Eighteen Eighty-Eight,
384
00:17:04,758 --> 00:17:07,025
While terror haunted the streets of our town,
385
00:17:07,027 --> 00:17:09,727
The unwary met a grim fate.
386
00:17:09,963 --> 00:17:11,062
The footsteps of doom,
387
00:17:11,064 --> 00:17:12,897
Rang down cobblestone streets,
388
00:17:12,899 --> 00:17:15,900
Through snow and through sleet and through rain,
389
00:17:15,902 --> 00:17:18,736
As lone newsboy shouted to rare passersby,
390
00:17:18,738 --> 00:17:22,073
"Old Jackie has Stricken Again!'
391
00:17:22,075 --> 00:17:24,475
Inside of the cozy Lamb and Scythe Inn,
392
00:17:24,477 --> 00:17:27,045
The cry of the newsboy rang out.
393
00:17:27,047 --> 00:17:28,780
But on that night, my dears,
394
00:17:28,782 --> 00:17:30,281
The poor guests and the staff,
395
00:17:30,283 --> 00:17:33,017
Were riddled with worry and doubt.
396
00:17:33,019 --> 00:17:35,920
A mysterious lodger, Had moved in - up the stair.
397
00:17:35,922 --> 00:17:38,189
He reeked of evil and fear.
398
00:17:38,191 --> 00:17:39,824
He dressed like no other,
399
00:17:39,826 --> 00:17:41,292
With filth-matted hair.
400
00:17:41,294 --> 00:17:44,195
You were wary, when he drew near.
401
00:17:44,197 --> 00:17:46,330
Agnes the barmaid, a rare beauty 'tis told,
402
00:17:46,332 --> 00:17:48,332
Held their attention fast,
403
00:17:48,334 --> 00:17:50,334
As she told how The Stranger arrived,
404
00:17:50,336 --> 00:17:53,471
At the Inn, a few nights past.
405
00:17:53,973 --> 00:17:55,973
She told them how he appeared at the door,
406
00:17:55,975 --> 00:17:58,076
In robes that were filthy and tattered,
407
00:17:58,078 --> 00:17:59,944
But she had no spare room,
408
00:17:59,946 --> 00:18:01,345
Just a chamber up the stairs
409
00:18:01,347 --> 00:18:04,315
It was quiet was all that it mattered.
410
00:18:04,317 --> 00:18:06,818
He dragged a large sack, To the top of the stair,
411
00:18:06,820 --> 00:18:08,886
Refusing the food and drink offered.
412
00:18:08,888 --> 00:18:11,456
Then reached into his pouch, And plucked a gold coin,
413
00:18:11,458 --> 00:18:13,891
Which Agnes put into the coffers.
414
00:18:13,893 --> 00:18:16,294
The pub-goers listened in dread silent awe,
415
00:18:16,296 --> 00:18:18,863
As the barmaid spun her dark tale.
416
00:18:18,865 --> 00:18:21,032
Then, sensing a look of fear in her eyes,
417
00:18:21,034 --> 00:18:24,235
They spun 'round and saw Lodger pale.
418
00:18:24,237 --> 00:18:26,938
He emerged from the shadows - descended the stairs.
419
00:18:26,940 --> 00:18:29,073
Then he stood - clad in red cloak and hat,
420
00:18:29,075 --> 00:18:31,209
He nodded a silent 'good evening' to all,
421
00:18:31,211 --> 00:18:35,213
Then left. That seemed to be that.
422
00:18:35,215 --> 00:18:37,181
Seizing her chance, Barmaid summoned her daring,
423
00:18:37,183 --> 00:18:39,283
And lead a group up to his room.
424
00:18:39,285 --> 00:18:41,452
Pushing the old wooden door aside,
425
00:18:41,454 --> 00:18:43,921
They ventured on into the gloom.
426
00:18:43,923 --> 00:18:46,290
The room, it was dark and cluttered with things
427
00:18:46,292 --> 00:18:48,493
With almost no room for a bed.
428
00:18:48,495 --> 00:18:51,395
And that's where she found - the in-fernal list,
429
00:18:51,397 --> 00:18:54,365
With all their names written in red.
430
00:18:54,367 --> 00:18:55,900
The names thus inscribed,
431
00:18:55,902 --> 00:18:57,201
Caught in Agnes' throat
432
00:18:57,203 --> 00:18:58,903
Could he be the "Jackie' they fear?
433
00:18:58,905 --> 00:19:00,238
For at this dark hour,
434
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,539
With no one about,
435
00:19:01,541 --> 00:19:04,041
The question: Did he lurk near?
436
00:19:04,944 --> 00:19:06,511
Down cobblestone streets
437
00:19:06,513 --> 00:19:08,112
He stalked through the night.
438
00:19:08,114 --> 00:19:10,047
Peering through window and curtain.
439
00:19:10,049 --> 00:19:12,083
Then he would pause, To add to his list.
440
00:19:12,085 --> 00:19:15,119
Then a "check' - just to make certain
441
00:19:15,121 --> 00:19:16,821
Later that night he returned to the Inn.
442
00:19:16,823 --> 00:19:19,390
The jovial room now drawn quiet.
443
00:19:19,392 --> 00:19:20,558
He stole up the stair
444
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,393
Paused and gave them a wink
445
00:19:22,395 --> 00:19:25,196
That quite nearly started a riot.
446
00:19:26,065 --> 00:19:28,900
The pub-goers summoned the Constables near.
447
00:19:28,902 --> 00:19:31,469
The mob charged the stairs in their wake.
448
00:19:31,471 --> 00:19:34,038
Lanterns, torches and pitchforks were waved.
449
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,407
And one bore an old wooden rake.
450
00:19:36,409 --> 00:19:38,209
They'd pound down - that locked door.
451
00:19:38,211 --> 00:19:39,827
There'd be no escape.
452
00:19:39,828 --> 00:19:41,444
They'd capture the fiend, sure that night!
453
00:19:41,447 --> 00:19:44,348
It's four stories down to the cold streets below.
454
00:19:44,350 --> 00:19:46,851
He won't put up - much of a fight!
455
00:19:47,187 --> 00:19:48,920
The door wouldn't open. They beat it again.
456
00:19:48,922 --> 00:19:51,489
The hinges, they rattled and clattered.
457
00:19:51,491 --> 00:19:53,491
But finally under the pounding onslaught,
458
00:19:53,493 --> 00:19:56,160
The wood crumbled and splintered and shattered.
459
00:19:57,397 --> 00:19:58,963
Oh! The room, it was empty.
460
00:19:58,965 --> 00:20:00,298
The desk, it was bare.
461
00:20:00,300 --> 00:20:03,267
The window was open, But He wasn't there.
462
00:20:03,269 --> 00:20:04,635
The mob turned, They searched,
463
00:20:04,637 --> 00:20:06,037
They scoured the room,
464
00:20:06,039 --> 00:20:08,273
Searching for clues,
465
00:20:08,274 --> 00:20:10,508
The "What', "When', "Why' and "Whom'.
466
00:20:10,510 --> 00:20:13,110
Then candlelight fell upon his dread note.
467
00:20:13,112 --> 00:20:15,313
They folded it open, To read, what he wrote:
468
00:20:15,315 --> 00:20:17,448
A line down the middle dividing it twice.
469
00:20:17,450 --> 00:20:20,351
Into two portions, The Naughty and Nice...
470
00:20:20,353 --> 00:20:23,120
Then a shivering breeze, Blew in through the room.
471
00:20:23,122 --> 00:20:24,488
Brought a sound from outside,
472
00:20:24,490 --> 00:20:26,123
Had he fall'n to his DOOM?
473
00:20:26,125 --> 00:20:27,358
They looked down from the window,
474
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:28,893
To the dark streets below,
475
00:20:28,895 --> 00:20:31,062
Searching where his old body had fallen.
476
00:20:31,064 --> 00:20:32,296
Then much to their shock,
477
00:20:32,298 --> 00:20:33,531
Heard a cheery 'Hello',
478
00:20:33,533 --> 00:20:36,300
Couldn't see from where he was callin'.
479
00:20:36,302 --> 00:20:39,170
Then Agnes the Barmaid, Looked on not in fear!
480
00:20:39,172 --> 00:20:42,206
For he rode in a sleigh, Pulled by tiny reindeer.
481
00:20:42,208 --> 00:20:43,341
As he soared through the night,
482
00:20:43,343 --> 00:20:45,660
Above old London-town,
483
00:20:45,661 --> 00:20:47,978
A shower of bright gifts, Came a-tumble-ing down!
484
00:20:47,981 --> 00:20:50,481
A doll and a horse, And a train and a toy,
485
00:20:50,483 --> 00:20:52,617
A nice gift for every Good girl and good boy.
486
00:20:52,619 --> 00:20:55,286
For there 'bove the snow, Covered rooftops he'd jingle.
487
00:20:55,288 --> 00:20:59,190
He waved and he laughed, He was old man Kris Kringle!
488
00:20:59,592 --> 00:21:01,092
This is a true story.
489
00:21:01,094 --> 00:21:05,162
It happened to a friend of a friend of mine.
490
00:21:05,398 --> 00:21:08,032
And so, Agnes the Barmaid Swept out the dark room.
491
00:21:08,034 --> 00:21:10,334
She opened the windows To dispel the gloom.
492
00:21:10,336 --> 00:21:11,636
But while cleaning the chamber,
493
00:21:11,638 --> 00:21:13,237
Dear girl got a fright,
494
00:21:13,239 --> 00:21:14,305
When she opened a cupboard,
495
00:21:14,307 --> 00:21:16,324
And found him that night!
496
00:21:16,325 --> 00:21:18,342
Old Saint Nick, he lept up, Chased on down
497
00:21:18,344 --> 00:21:19,944
to the streets. For theLodger had mugged him,
498
00:21:19,946 --> 00:21:21,579
And stolen the treats.
499
00:21:21,581 --> 00:21:22,947
As he soared through the air,
500
00:21:22,949 --> 00:21:24,515
Screamed with evil delight:
501
00:21:24,517 --> 00:21:26,584
"Merry Christmas to all,
502
00:21:26,586 --> 00:21:28,586
And to all a good night! [EVIL CHUCKLE]
503
00:21:36,562 --> 00:21:37,628
Oh, are you okay?
504
00:21:37,630 --> 00:21:40,231
[GASPING FOR AIR]
Oh yeah, yeah.
505
00:21:40,233 --> 00:21:43,434
I'm just a little bruised,
like...
506
00:21:43,436 --> 00:21:45,069
ALL OVER MY BODY!
507
00:21:46,539 --> 00:21:48,673
Larry, do you know
why I'm wearing this
508
00:21:48,675 --> 00:21:50,474
purple and green outfit?
509
00:21:50,476 --> 00:21:52,410
To look silly?
510
00:21:52,412 --> 00:21:55,246
No...
to hide the bruises.
511
00:21:55,248 --> 00:21:56,714
Doh!
512
00:21:57,517 --> 00:21:59,483
