CAREFUL, BRAIN, YOU KNOW I'M STILL RECOVERING FROM A PULLED MUSCLE.
THE ONE IN YOUR HEAD? EXACTLY! IT WAS LAST WEEK, WHEN I HAD THE IDEA HMMNOW, WHAT WAS IT? OH! I DID IT AGAIN.
NARF! WELL, BEFORE YOU INJURE YOURSELF FURTHER, ALLOW ME TO TELL YOU OF MY IDEA, ONE INVOLVING THE LOWEST, SIMPLEST, MOST ELEMENTAL UNIT OF LIFE.
EGAD, BRAIN, PAULY SHORE! A VALID GUESS, BUT, NO, PINKY.
I SPEAK OF CLONING, THE REPLICATION OF A COMPLEX INDIVIDUAL ORGANISM FROM A SINGLE CELL.
COME THIS WAY, PINKY.
A CELL FROM A TISSUE SAMPLE I TOOK FROM A MYSTERIOUS AND SECRET LOCATION.
FOUND IT! HOO HOO HA HA! HAVE YOU LISTENED TO ANYTHING I'VE SAID? OH, YES, "CLOWNING, ORGAN MUSIC," BLAH BLAH BLAH--ZORT! [SIGHS.]
WHY DO I EVEN TRY? WITH THESE MULTIPHASIC TRANSREPLICLONATOR PODS, I SHALL CREATE A SINGLE CLONE IN MY OWN IMAGE.
Brain and images: AFTER A MODICUM OF STUDY, I WILL TAKE A NEW SAMPLE FROM THE PROTOTYPE AND MAKE 2 MORE CLONES.
THEN THEY'LL MAKE 2 CLONES, AND THEY'LL MAKE 2 CLONES, AND SO ON AND SO ON AND--WELL, YOU GET THE IDEA.
THINK OF IT, PINKY.
THOUSANDS OF ME, ALL WORKING TOWARD THE SAME GOAL.
A ONE-MAN SHOW? NO, PINKY.
THOUSANDS OF ME TAKING OVER THE WORLD! EGAD, BRAIN! YOU MEAN-- YES, PINKY.
I'M FRANCHISING.
BRILLIANT! ZORT! OH, CAN I HELP, BRAIN? OH, PLEASE SAY I CAN HELP.
I WON'T LET YOU DOWN, I PROMISE! NARF! PLEASE, BRAIN, DON'T MAKE ME BEG! [SOBBING.]
OF COURSE NOT.

BRAIN SUCH AS? PAT THE BUNNY! PINKY, DO YOU REALIZE HOW THAT INANE DRIVEL COULD DISRUPT ITS NEURAL PROGRAMMING? OH, FIDDLY-POSH, I WAS RAISED ON PAT THE BUNNY.

SOMETHING TERRIBLY WRONG.
I'VE GOT-- GOT TO THINK.
"UNKNOWN CONTAMINATION"? "DNA STRANDS MERGED"? SEARCH FOR CONTAMINATION.
WHAT IN THE NAME OF ALL WHICH IS GOOD AND SWEET IN ODIN'S BEARD IS THAT? RECONSTRUCT.
BE AFRAID.
BE VERY AFRAID.
PINKY! LOOK! ONE OF YOUR ERRANT NAIL CLIPPINGS BEFOULED MY TISSUE SAMPLE! MY CLONE IS A PRODUCT OF OUR MERGED DNA.
DO YOU REALIZE WHAT THIS MEANS? [GASPS.]
I'M A MOMMY! [LAUGHING AND CRYING.]

WHY? TO HANG ROMY'S LOVELY DRAWING.
PINKY! WE HAVE TO, BRAIN.
DR.
SPOCK SAYS RIGHT HERE, IT IS IMPORTANT FOR THE CHILD'S SELF-ESTEEM.
ROMAN NUMERAL ONE IS NOT OUR CHILD.
IT'S AN EXPERIMENT.
MY EXPERIMENT.
HOPEFULLY IT POSSESSES ENOUGH OF MY DNA TO STILL MAKE A VALUABLE PROTOTYPE FOR MY NEW MOUSE MASTER RACE.
Romy: GLARB.
NYA HA HA! THEN AGAIN ROMAN NUMERAL ONE, COME HERE.
YEAH? I PREFER "AFFIRMATIVE.
" WHAT IS THAT? THIS? OH, TARAXACUM OFFINALE.
[COUGHS.]
STOP! I'M TERRIBLY ALLERGIC! NOW, AFTER CAREFUL ANALYSIS, I'VE CONCLUDED THAT YOUR TRAINING IS COMPLETE.

NO MORE TALKY-TALK.
LOVELY CAKE, YUM YUM! COME AND GET IT, HA! WHAT, PRAY TELL, IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN TAKING OVER THE WORLD? I DON'T KNOW, I JUST, UH I WANT TO BE A VENTRILOQUIST.
A VENTRILOQUIST.
OH, YES, OF COURSE.
CERTAINLY THAT'S A GROWTH INDUSTRY.
PERHAPS YOU CAN USE PINKY AS YOUR DUMMY! OH, NO, NOT ME.
I WAS BLACKLISTED DURING THE CHARLIE McCARTHY HEARINGS.
YOU SEE? NO SUPPORT.
YOU TREAT ME LIKE SOME KIND OF LAB EXPERIMENT.
YOU ARE A LAB EXPERIMENT.
AND WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT? I'VE BEEN ONE ALL MY LIFE, AND LET ME TELL YOU, IN MY DAY, WE DIDN'T HAVE IT NEARLY AS GOOD.
OH, HE'S RIGHT, ROMY.
THEY USED TO KEEP US IN A CAGE WITH AN EXERCISE WHEEL, FEEDING US NOTHING BUT PELLETS AND WATER.
IT WAS HORRIBLE! CAKE? PINKY, YOUR HEAD WOULD MAKE A WONDERFUL ANT FARM.
AND YOU TWO-- BICKER, BICKER, BICKER! IT'S LIKE WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? I AM.

OH, BRAIN! I'M TURNING OUT TO BE JUST LIKE MY MOTHER! ALL WHITE AND COVERED WITH FUR! YOU'VE GOT TO GO AFTER HIM, BRAIN.
FOR GOSH SAKE, HE'S YOUR CLONE! I HAVE NO CLONE.
[CRYING.]
[SOBBING HYSTERICALLY.]
AAH! [BLOWS NOISILY.]
BRAIN, YOU CAN'T GO ON WORKING YOURSELF LIKE THIS.
YOU HAVEN'T EATEN OR SLEPT SINCE ROMY RAN AWAY.
POIT! I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE.
OH, WAIT! IT'S COMING BACK! NO.
NO, CAN'T REMEMBER.
WE MUST FIND MY CLONE! HMM.
I'VE TAKEN US TO EVERY PLACE A YOUNG RUNAWAY WOULD GO.

APPARENTLY ROMAN'S NOT THINKING LIKE ME.
PINKY, ARE YOU PONDERING WHAT I'M PONDERING? I THINK SO, BRAIN, BUT PETE ROSE? I MEAN, CAN WE TRUST HIM? NO, PINKY.

HMM.
LET'S SEE WHERE WOULD I GO IF I WERE RUNNING AWAY? OH! OH! POIT AGAIN, BRAIN! [COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYS.]

YOU'RE MAKING A BIG MISTAKE, BUNNY.
BUNNY? WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT, YOU--YOU CIRCUS FREAK.
CIRCUS FREAK, EH? LEAVE THE LITTLE GUY ALONE! OH, BUNNY ANOTHER FREAK? JUST LIKE YOUR LAST BOYFRIEND.
HE WASN'T A FREAK.
OH, YEAH? THE BEARDED MAN WHO BREATHED AIR AND FLOATED IN THE WATER NOT A FREAK? AND NOW THIS? AHEMACTUALLY, I'M A CLONED LAB MOUSE-- HERB, YOU'RE A PSYCHOTIC, DELUSIONAL PARANOID WITH A PROTO-USER MENTALITY AND SADISTIC CONTROLLER TENDENCIES.
IT'S 'ERB.
OW! HE BIT ME! THE CIRCUS FREAK BIT ME! THAT'S RIGHT.
NOW YOU'RE A CIRCUS FREAK.
AAH! ANYBODY ELSE WANT A LITTLE CIRCUS IN THEIR BLOOD? AAH! AAH! AAH! I'VE HAD MY SHOTS.
BITE ME.
YES.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE.]
WELL, ALL I CAN SAY IS, GIRLFRIEND, IF YOU WANT YOUR CHILD BACK, THEN YOU GOT TO BACK YOUR CHILD, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING? [CHEERING.]
YES.
WELL, BE THAT AS IT MAY, YOUNG LADY, WE'RE SIMPLY HERE TO LET OUR YOUNG CLONE ROMAN KNOW WE WANT HIM TO COME BACK HOME.
WHOO! I'M DOWN WITH THAT! WHOO! NARF! PINKY, PLEASE! TALK TO THE HAND.
TALK TO THE HAND.
AND IF IT ISN'T TOO MUCH TROUBLE, MISS LAKE, PLEASE ASK YOUR AUDIENCE TO REFRAIN FROM ADDRESSING ME AS "GIRLFRIEND.
" WE'LL RETURN WITH OUR FURRY DELUSIONAL ALBINO MEN, DISCUSS THEIR PROBLEM, AND GIVE THEM FANTASY MAKEOVERS.
WE'VE TRIED EVERYTHING I CAN PONDER.
I FEAR WE'LL NEVER SEE ROMAN AGAIN.
OHH! A LETTER FROM ROMY! "DEAR PINKY" JUST "PINKY"? AFRAID SO.

"YOUR CLONE, ROMY.
APARTMENT 2F.
" OH, BRAIN, HE COULD BE ANYWHERE! PINKY, HE REALLY IS YOUR SON.
IT'S TROUBLING TO THINK OF ROMAN LIVING IN SUCH BOHEMIAN SQUALOR.
PROBABLY CRAWLING WITH VERMIN.
WELL, WELL, LOOK WHO'S HERE.

SAGET AND COULIER.
OH, PLEASE TELL ME HE'S SAGET.
Bunny: WHO'S AT THE DOOR, BABE? ROMAN, WHO IS THIS PERSON? MY GIRLFRIEND--BUNNY.
WELL, MY REAL NAME'S PAT, BUT EVERYBODY CALLS ME BUNNY.
PAT, THE BUNNY! HA, PERFECT! NARF.
HOO HOO, PAT THE BUNNY! HA HA HA! THIS IS PREPOSTEROUS.
YOU'RE A LAB MOUSE.
SHE'S A HUMAN.
OH, LABELS! DO WE HAVE TO JUDGE OTHERS ON THEIR RACE, RELIGION, AND COLOR OF THEIR FUR? CAN'T WE ALL JUST BE? SAVE IT FOR YOUR ACCEPTANCE SPEECH, MISS SARANDON.
ROMAN, WE NEED TO TALK.
BADLY.
BRAIN, THIS PLACE YES, PINKY.
IT'S LIKE SOMETHING THAT GUGGENHEIM THREW UP.
THEN FED TO ITS YOUNG.
SO, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT? WELL, UM WHAT I WANTED TO SAY IS I'VE REALIZED THAT WELL, WHEN I WAS A BOY, I I BELIEVE IT WAS EURIPIDES WHO TOLD HIS, UH, CLONE THAT, UM WHEN IN THE COURSE OF HUMAN EVENTS APOLOGY ACCEPTED.
LOOK, WHAT IT COMES DOWN TO IS YOU WANT ME TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD, AND PINKY WANTS ME TO WRAP MY TOES IN STRING CHEESE, BUTFACE IT, MAN, THAT'S NOT ME.
NO, BECAUSE, UH YOU'RE A-- A VENTRILOQUIST.
[CRIES.]
OH, THIS IS SO SAVANNAH.
SO, BACK TO THE LAB, THEN.
WE KEPT YOUR CORNER OF THE CAGE EXACTLY AS YOU LEFT IT, ROMY.
EXCEPT FOR EVERYTHING BEING IN A BOX AND SHOVED IN A CLOSET SOMEWHERE.
HEY, I'M NOT GOING BACK.
THE LAB WILL ALWAYS BRING BACK FEELINGS OF DISAPPOINTMENT.
MAN, I'M SICK OF DISAPPOINTMENT! AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE TAKING A YEAR OFF TO FOLLOW THE GRATEFUL DEAD.
DO YOU WANT TO TELL HIM, OR SHALL I? I WILL, BRAIN.
HAVE FUN! NARF.
THANKS, BRAIN.

TALK TO THE HAND.
AND IF IT ISN'T TOO MUCH TROUBLE, MISS LAKE, PLEASE ASK YOUR AUDIENCE TO REFRAIN FROM ADDRESSING ME AS "GIRLFRIEND.
" WE'LL RETURN WITH OUR FURRY DELUSIONAL ALBINO MEN, DISCUSS THEIR PROBLEM, AND GIVE THEM FANTASY MAKEOVERS.
WE'VE TRIED EVERYTHING I CAN PONDER.
I FEAR WE'LL NEVER SEE ROMAN AGAIN.
OHH! A LETTER FROM ROMY! "DEAR PINKY" JUST "PINKY"? AFRAID SO.
HMM.
"DEAR PINKY, HELLO.
HA HA.
NARF.
DON'T LET BRAIN READ THIS.
" I WON'T, ROMY.
GO ON, BRAIN.
"I'M AS HAPPY AS A TICK IN A "TICK AMUSEMENT PARK, "SO PLEASE DON'T TRY TO FIND ME.
"YOUR CLONE, ROMY.
APARTMENT 2F.
" OH, BRAIN, HE COULD BE ANYWHERE! PINKY, HE REALLY IS YOUR SON.
IT'S TROUBLING TO THINK OF ROMAN LIVING IN SUCH BOHEMIAN SQUALOR.
PROBABLY CRAWLING WITH VERMIN.
WELL, WELL, LOOK WHO'S HERE.
MY TWO DADS.
SAGET AND COULIER.
OH, PLEASE TELL ME HE'S SAGET.
Bunny: WHO'S AT THE DOOR, BABE? ROMAN, WHO IS THIS PERSON? MY GIRLFRIEND--BUNNY.
WELL, MY REAL NAME'S PAT, BUT EVERYBODY CALLS ME BUNNY.
PAT, THE BUNNY! HA, PERFECT! NARF.
HOO HOO, PAT THE BUNNY! HA HA HA! THIS IS PREPOSTEROUS.
YOU'RE A LAB MOUSE.
SHE'S A HUMAN.
OH, LABELS! DO WE HAVE TO JUDGE OTHERS ON THEIR RACE, RELIGION, AND COLOR OF THEIR FUR? CAN'T WE ALL JUST BE? SAVE IT FOR YOUR ACCEPTANCE SPEECH, MISS SARANDON.
ROMAN, WE NEED TO TALK.
BADLY.
BRAIN, THIS PLACE YES, PINKY.
IT'S LIKE SOMETHING THAT GUGGENHEIM THREW UP.
THEN FED TO ITS YOUNG.
SO, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT? WELL, UM WHAT I WANTED TO SAY IS I'VE REALIZED THAT WELL, WHEN I WAS A BOY, I I BELIEVE IT WAS EURIPIDES WHO TOLD HIS, UH, CLONE THAT, UM WHEN IN THE COURSE OF HUMAN EVENTS APOLOGY ACCEPTED.
LOOK, WHAT IT COMES DOWN TO IS YOU WANT ME TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD, AND PINKY WANTS ME TO WRAP MY TOES IN STRING CHEESE, BUTFACE IT, MAN, THAT'S NOT ME.
NO, BECAUSE, UH YOU'RE A-- A VENTRILOQUIST.
[CRIES.]
OH, THIS IS SO SAVANNAH.
SO, BACK TO THE LAB, THEN.
WE KEPT YOUR CORNER OF THE CAGE EXACTLY AS YOU LEFT IT, ROMY.
EXCEPT FOR EVERYTHING BEING IN A BOX AND SHOVED IN A CLOSET SOMEWHERE.
HEY, I'M NOT GOING BACK.
THE LAB WILL ALWAYS BRING BACK FEELINGS OF DISAPPOINTMENT.
MAN, I'M SICK OF DISAPPOINTMENT! AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE TAKING A YEAR OFF TO FOLLOW THE GRATEFUL DEAD.
DO YOU WANT TO TELL HIM, OR SHALL I? I WILL, BRAIN.
HAVE FUN! NARF.
THANKS, BRAIN.
CALL MEDAD.
BUT DON'T GET EXCITED.
IT'S SIMPLY AN ACRONYM FOR "DERIVATION OF APPLIED DNA.
" AND YOU CAN CALL ME PINKY.
IT'S AN ACRONYM FOR PA-E-N-K-E.
NARF.
GLARB.
BRAIN, PROMISE ME WE'LL HAVE ANOTHER SOMEDAY.
PINKY, PLEASE.
WE MUST GET BACK TO THE LAB.
THE NIGHT IS YOUNG.
THERE'S STILL TIME.
TO DO WHAT, BRAIN? THE SAME THING WE DO EVERY NIGHT, PINKY.
TRY TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD! OHH, NOT TONIGHT, BRAIN.
I HAVE A HEADACHE.
