Paul: We're being swallowed. Ringo: What shall we do? George: Serve tea. John: Lovely. Old Fred: By Neptune's knickerbockers, she's puttered out. John: Maybe we should call a road service. Paul: Can't. No road. Ringo: And we're not sub-scribers. George, John, Paul: Subscribers! George: I know something about motors. Let me have a look. Old Fred: Here. George: Is that the motor? Old Fred: Can't you tell one when you see one? George: Of course I can. Let me peruse it. John: What do you think? George: I think I burned my finger. Ringo: Here, lads. Look at this. John: What do you think it is? George: Nothing. Ringo: Looks like nothing. Paul: It's a local inhabitant. Ringo: He's probably one of the nothings. Paul: At least that's something. Let's show him our motor. John: Steady on. You don't want to show your motor to just anybody. George: But this is a nobody.

Jeremy: Old English, middle, a dialect, pure... Paul: Well, do you speak English? Jeremy: You know, I'm not sure. Ringo: He's so smart; he doesn't even remember what he knows. Paul: Why don't we show him our motor? John: Should we really... show him our motor? Paul: He may not have seen one before.

Jeremy: I must complete my bust, two novels, finish my blueprints, begin my beguine. John: Must you always talk in rhyme? Jeremy: If I spoke prose, you'd all find out, I don't know what I talk about.

Yellow Submarine 5

The dreaded vacuum

Jeremy Hillary Boob PhD

Ringo, Paul, George, John, subscribers

Ringo: Come on, we'll take you somewhere. Okay, Booby. Down the hatch. Jeremy: Down the hatch. A quite curious phrase. The middle South Midlands Victorian phase. Its usage undoubtedly on the increase. I must work it into my New Statesman piece. John: That's the hatch, friend. Jeremy: Indeed. Old Fred: Steady now, crew. Prepare to go forward. George: Forward! Ringo: It's awfully quiet. John: What shall we do, Jeremy? Jeremy: Repair, revive, revamp, renew. Ipse dixit, just turn the screw. Jeremy: Log sign, clog sign, big thingamabob. Paul: What's he saying? What's he doing? Jeremy: Chewing gum will do the job. A turn of the screw, and all is and all is new. Old Fred: I can't stop her. H is for hurry, E is for ergent, L is for love me John: P is for... goodbye? George: That was lovely, Jeremy. Paul: We've lost the sub for good. John: Or for bad. Ringo: Or for worse. Jeremy: I'm sorry about that. John: But he did fix the motor. Chief Blue Meanie: Glove? Come here, Glove, look out there and what do you see? Tell him, Max. Max: Someone running, Glove. Chief Blue Meanie: Yes. Well, you'll soon put a stop to that, won't you, glovey? GO, glove! Point and having pointed! Go! Fred: Sir! Sir! The Blue Beanies are coming. Lord Mayor: Not here, young Fred, they wouldn't dare. Fred: They would, they are! What are you going to do? Lord Mayor: Finish the quartet. The Meanies launch another salvo. The first violinist is frozen with a lightning bolt, and Fred catches the violin. Fred: Trio, sir. The second violin is frozen as well. Fred: Duet, sir. Lord Mayor: Duet? The final violinist is frozen. Fred: Solo! Fred takes a whack at playing 3 violins at once. Lord Mayor: Young Fred...the Blue Meanies are coming! He leaps into Fred's arms. They run under heavy fire to a temple. Lord Mayor: Four scores and 32 bars ago our father land... Fred: A quartet... Lord Mayor: And mothers... Fred: 'Nether quartet... Lord Mayor: Made it in this...Yellow Submarine... Fred: What, that little thing? Lord Mayor: ...to Pepperland. The Meanies advance while the Lord Mayor sets up his music stand on the uppermost step and tunes his cello. Lord Mayor: Climb aboard, young Fred! Fred: But sir, I can't even make me soap float! Lord Mayor: I'm appointing you Lord Admiral. Fred: Lord Admiral! Well in that event, yes! More Meanies advance... Lord Mayor: Hurry young Fred, go, get help. Fred: But where, where, where should I go? A Meanie is advancing on the temple on the shoulder of a clown whose nose he presses... Lord Mayor: No time for trivialities...
