LITTLE SHOP OF HORREDS

(by Rogue)

Scene:Ed and Eddy are waiting for Double D.

Eddy:Have you finished making something that's going to make me rich yet,Double D?

Ed:Big butt,so what?

(Double D enters with a plant)

Double D:Here we are!

Eddy:That's it?A plant?

Ed:Cool!

Double D:It's not just any plant Eddy-

Ed:Is it a strange vegetable from outerspace that appeared one day during a total eclipse of the sun and will force us all to sing and dance under some magical curse?

Double D:Uh...let's not get carried away,Ed.

Eddy:Double D,this is stupid!No one is gonna pay to come see you flower!

Double D:It is not a flower,Eddy!It's a flytrap of some sorts...I just haven't been able to identify it.

Ed:It's an alien!

Eddy:(ignoring Ed)And this is going to help us...how?

Double D:Wouldn't you pay to see a new and unidentified species of plant?

Eddy:No.

Ed:I would!

Double D:Plenty of people would.

Eddy:You can't be serious!There is no way the kids are gonna come running to see a plant without a name!

(Double D sets plant off set.Jonny enters)

Jonny:Wow!(looking at plant)Look at that thing,Plank!That's awesome guys!

Double D:Why thank you,Jonny.

Jonny:What kind of plant is it?

Ed:It is an alien!

Double D:(frowns at Ed)Er...it's a new species.

Jonny:Haha!That's so cool!

Ed:Wanna pet it?

Eddy:Pet the plant?

Jonny:Sure!

(Jonny goes to pet plant)

Double D:Well Eddy,I hate to say I told you so...

Eddy:Just shut up and take Jonny's cash!

Ed:Ok!(turns to Jonny)Give us your cash,Jonny!

Jonny:Sure thing,Ed!

(hands Ed a stack of bills)

Ed:Green paper!

Eddy:Great!Get more kids!

Double D:I don't think that's such a good idea.The plant doesn't look too good...

Eddy:It's just hungry.Feed it.

Double D:Well I would,but there's the small factor that I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT EATS!!!

Ed:It eats people!

Double D:Ed, that's disgusting.

Ed:I want pudding skins.

Jonny:(from offstage)Hey,it's opening it's trap!Wait...what the-AHHHHHH!!!

Double D:Gracious!

Ed:The plant ate Jonny!

Eddy:(counting money,not listening)What?Oh,that's nice.

Double D:Eddy,are you even listening?The plant just devoured a human being!Not to mention a piece of wood...

Eddy:Big deal,this plant is gonna make us RICH!

Double D:Eddy,we've got trouble!With a capital T,and that rhymes with P,and that stands for plant!

Ed:This is not good,Eddy!

Eddy:Will you two calm down!So the plant ate one kid,no one's gonna notice.

Ed:He's not listening,Double D!

Double D:It looks like we'll have to stop this ourselves,Ed.The fate of the cul-de-sac is in our hands!

Ed:Nothing can defeat the claw!

(SCENE 2:Ed and Double D enter with spatulas)

Double D:I really don't see how spatulas are going to help us...

Ed:They always work in the movies,Double D!Watch...TIME TO DIE,ALIEN PLANT!!!

(jumps off set)

Double D:Here goes nothing...and it is NOT an alien,Ed!

(Double D follows Ed.Eddy enters)

Eddy:Hey Ed,Double D...guys?Where did they go?

(hears plant burp,and spatulas fly out)

Eddy:What the...Ed's spatulas?OH NO!!!The plant ate them too!But...but I can't do scams without them!ED! DOUBLE D! I'M COMING IN FOR YA!!!

(Eddy jumps in)

Ed:(heard offstage)EDDY!!!You found us!

Double D:(also offstage)Eddy?

Jonny:Hiya Eddy!Now we can all be together in this small,sticky plant!

Eddy:What possessed me to jump in here with you people?
