The Dingbats: Episode I - Rockin Oceania - Part II By SpinoMonkey
INT. MR. CAMELS LAIR - DAY
Carna runs into the Mr. Camel's Lair!
CARNA Found him!
MR. CAMEL Good Carna, who is it? CARNA It was Evinch's hired bodyguard. Agent Malcolm! he's been in contact with a Mr. Grammond, who has recently found a large lump sum of cash and is somewhere in the pacific currently.
MR. CAMEL OK, but how is Malcolm related Carna?
CARNA Malcolm has been an assassin for Mr. Grammond who has been pulling out hits on other ABC operatives around the world, for the past six years. Although we can't locate Mr. Grammond, if we find Malcolm. We'll find Grammond.
MR. CAMEL Very good Carna. Get the plane. We're going to visit Malcolm.
CARNA I don't know sir, you sure about this? ABC doesn't seem all that much better then the Dingbats sir.
CARNA Hey, keep your spirits up Carna. ABC is there for the family and that's what matters. Family. Family counts, it's the binding force that keeps us togeather, a unit. A loving caring group of people whose petty differences can be set aside in the name of love. Love is also something we stand for her at ABC.
CARNA So, what does all that have to do with us?
MR. CAMEL (chuckes) Beats me! It's just the company's stereotypical line they give everyone. CARNA Mr. Camel that doesn't make me feel better. I'm seriously thinking about quitting. This job doesn't seem like I'm doing any good in the world. You promised me I'd make difference, you promised me glory.
MR.CAMEL Carna, you're my assistant, you can't quit. It's in the agreement you signed. But don't fret. Some forces, some powers...even need a nudge in the right direction from time to time. If you want to save this Earth from impending doom. Then you'll help us. If you don't care, please by all means don't.
CARNA Well...what if I say no?
MR. CAMEL Well, you're not...I mean, impending doom. How much worse can it get?
CARNA Well lets just say, hypothetically speaking.
MR. CAMEL Well, you...well you can't. That's not even an option.
CARNA So what you're saying is that I have the choice to not choose?
MR. CAMEL That's EXACTLY what I'm trying to say.

DR. GRAMM I was indeed.
YVONNE Think we could talk?
DR. GRAMM Is my stomach going to get upset?
YVONNE There's something I have to tell you.
DR. GRAMM Sounds fun.
YVONNE Remember the old times Gramm?
DR. GRAMM Back when we first met? Back when there was only us. YVONNE Yeah, the good times. When there wasn't a worry in the world. Before our relationship had it's ups and downs.
DR. GRAMM Before the real world entered our world.
YVONNE (smiles and laughs) Yeah...Remember how we used to fool around, and you always came over to my place, because you were afraid of me meeting your grandfather!
DR. GRAMM And you found out why after you met him.
YVONNE Yeah, I did didn't I?
DR. GRAMM Tried to shoot you with a shotgun.
YVONNE Always figured it would be the other way around.
DR. GRAMM (smiles) Over protective grandfather of his completely legal and of age grandson. Who'd seen that coming? That was before we dated, four years ago. I remember it well.
YVONNE Then-
DR. GRAMM Then we faded away, and you left me for nearly a year. I didn't even see you or hear from you. You practically fell off the planet.
YVONNE Then we started dating soon after. DR. GRAMM Yeah.
YVONNE Those were the days...but that's not all.
DR. GRAMM Oh yeah, am I missing something? You go to England, fall in love have kids and manage to make your way back all in a year's time?
YVONNE Not exactly.
DR. GRAMM What then?
YVONNE Your grandfather, umm...
DR. GRAMM My grandfather, this has to be bad.
YVONNE Gramm, I wasn't in England for one year. I was about 12 miles away having your two children. Twins.
Pause.
DR. GRAMM But, you and I hadn't...where are they?
YVONNE Your grandfather. Stole them from me, us. When I found out I was due, I didn't want you to know. You weren't ready, I thought you'd hate me for sure, for ruining your life! Stealing your life away from you. That's why I left. When they were born he took them, said he'd take care of them. I was so relieved, to have given them to someone trusting- DR. GRAMM YOU GAVE them to my granfather!? Jesus Christ Yvonne! You fucking LIED to me! And gave them to my fucking Grandfather.
YVONNE He said he'd take care of them, until I got a phone call this morning. Said I'd never be seeing them again. He said Malcolm would make sure of it.
DR. GRAMM Malcolm? This is great, you really fucked up this time didn't you!?
YVONNE I'm sorry Gramm! I thought I was doing the right thing.
Yvonne begins to cry, a pleading look of forgiveness is swept over her face.
DR. GRAMM I want you to leave and I never want to see your face again. Are you listening? GO!
YVONNE I'm sorry Gramm, you have to understand! We weren't in love then, things were different, it was just sex.
DR. GRAMM No Yvonne. NO. I was never just sex. Not for me.
YVONNE I messed up. AGAIN. I know, but Gramm, you have to help me! He's taken them and won't give them back!
DR. GRAMM Well you didn't seem to need them until now. YVONNE Gramm, you make it seem easy. It wasn't! I had to look into your eyes every day and know they were out there, somewhere. It killed me. I just wanted you to be ready.
DR. GRAMM And who were you to decide that?
YVONNE Gramm, you're all I got left.
DR. GRAMM Not anymore. Leave Yvonne. Leave.
Yvonne gets up and leaves.
