HERK<br />

So I can get back to work. Oh hang on, I just remembered all that paperwork. The<br />

other me clones have most likely given me MORE work. ...<br />

HERK trails off as he wanders off stage. DEE looks at Chonko.<br />

DEE<br />

Imagine being as crazy as that guy Chonk. Man, I can't believe him. [pause] Ya<br />

know General, it feels just like eight years ago when we were fighting back-toback<br />

in the Inter-Galactic War of '73. I think it feels that way because-<br />

-Meow.<br />

CHONKO<br />

DEE<br />

Because it was eight years. It was. General, I can't stress this enough- you're<br />

like a brother to me. No one appreciates what I did. Those damn Florbo-Glorbian<br />

bastards .... I don't know why I was told to hate them, but it must've been a real<br />

bad reason! I couldn't have done it without you buddy. Honestly -<br />

The lights cut out. A British voice can be heard.<br />

DEE is laying down on a therapist's couch, Chonko is sitting on a chair.<br />

DEE<br />

being respected ...<br />

HERK<br />

[From a distance] HEY DEE! I FOUND SOMETHING!<br />

<strong>We</strong> should clean up before-<br />

HERK comes back on stage.<br />

-What are you doing?<br />

DEE<br />

HERK<br />
