Scene 6.29 - ROFL: Resin Of Fruitful Life
EST: INT. THE COUPLES' CRIB
(There is a growing, powerful sound of a worm approaching as PORSCHE and STONI are lying together in the darkness of their sleeping chamber. PORSCHE'S eyes snap open and he sees STONI looking down at him.)
STONI
You were calling my name... it frightened me.
PORSCHE
Stoni ... the visions of my future are gone... I have to smoke the resin of fruitful life.
STONI
No! ... Porsche ... please ... I've seen men who have tried ... I've seen how they die. They never stop laughing -- they suffocate.
PORSCHE
I am dead to everyone unless I become ... unless I become what I ... may ... be. Only the resin of fruitful life can free what is inside me -- what possibly can save us all.
STONI
Porsche...
(The image of CHEETO on the balcony fades in with cool music.)
DUKE CHEETO
The creeper must be bakin'.
(It fades out to PORSCHE.)
PORSCHE
I must smoke the sacred resin. You have to help me. We must go now.
INT. PASSAGEWAY - TREE SABRE - NIGHT
(PORSCHE walks alone down a dark passage. He meets the Faygo-kin at the top of a narrow incline.)
PORSCHE
Come with me. Now is the time.
(They all silently move on.)
EXT. LUMINOUS JUNGLE - NIGHT
FAYGO-KIN V.O.
The Sissy All-Gay'd will be transformed in the darkness of the jungle. Again, the legend.
(In the hollow of a huge, curved leaf, PORSCHE stops with STONI. They share a look into each other's eyes. PORSCHE turns towards the Faygo-kin and nods. They move in quickly to tie and wrap PORSCHE in Brew-men rope; kinda kinky and all. They move back and wait quietly. STONI moves in very close to PORSCHE. She holds a highpipe; the mesh screen coated in of the green resin of fruitful life.)
PORSCHE
Hurry! All I see is darkness.
STONI
PORSCHE... I will love you forever... in life or in death... let Shia-Le-Beouf judge now. (Whispering:) You are my life.
(She lights the pipe. Slow move into PORSCHE'S face as:)
PORSCHE
(Inner voice:) Now... the test of the resin of fruitful life... what is it that waits for me in this darkness?
INT. PORSCHE'S MIND
(Fade to black then dissolve to green, bubbling smoke. A wisp floats across the smoke - a huge low thud - then quiet.)
EXT. JUNGLE - NIGHT
(Cut to PORSCHE screaming horribly in the jungle. Then, the change. He begins laughing hysterically.)
INT. JEZEBEL'S ROOM - TREE SABRE - NIGHT
(AH! LEAH! walks forward in the very dark room. She can't stop giggling. She forces herself to walk to JEZEBEL'S bed. She finds that JEZEBEL is laughing, too. JEZEBEL looks to her daughter, concerned. They stare at each other in the darkness.)
JEZEBEL
Ah Leah! I can't stop laughing!
AH! LEAH!
I can't stop either. Mother - help me!
JEZEBEL
(Struggling:) Ah Leah! What is it?
AH! LEAH!
It's Porsche. He's smoked the Resin Of Fruitful Life.
INT. PORSCHE'S MIND
(Cut to quiet black - dissolve again to green - another wisp - low thud - quietness - fade to black.)
EXT. EMPEROR'S SPACESHIP - SPACE
(The Emperor's space ship soars towards us.)
INT. EMPEROR'S SPACE SHIP - SPACE
(The Reverend Mother HELL-ON-GAIA MOHOAWK is rolling on the floor, laughing her pilate-toned ass off. The Emperor looks on in horror.)
INT. PORSCHE'S MIND
(Suddenly screaming towards us is white rings, stars and a huge Guild Navigator [Hop-head, no doubt.])
EXT. JUNGLE - NIGHT
(Cut to PORSCHE'S eyes - tightly closed, crying from laughter.)
EXT. JUNGLE - NIGHT
(Laughing sound. PORSCHE'S mouth opens and a giant wind is stirred in the trees.)
INT. PORSCHE'S MIND
(Navigator chewing giant cud and spewing bile and light and sounds. PORSCHE'S mouth double exposes over Navigator and cud. The sound from PORSCHE'S mouth destroys the Navigator and opens the Bedlam Path. Navigator bursts into a huge light ring and we quickly travel through ring after ring and masses of liquid stars. The light increases until it is blinding and then in the light...)
EXT. POPPY FLOWER BLOSSOMING
(A golden poppy flower blossoms and glows brilliantly - suddenly the powerful sound of an approaching worm.)
EXT. JUNGLE - NIGHT
(STONI and the Faygo-kin freeze and watch in horror as seven giant worms converge on them. The worms lean downward from leaves above, towering over them. The worms hover and wait, resembling a large pot-leaf in their configuration.)
DISSOLVE TO:
EXT. JUNGLE - DAY
(STONI looks to the Faygo-kin, then they look at PORSCHE who lies motionless. She cuts the rope bonds with her highpipe. Her fingers tremble as does the whole of the jungle. PORSCHE'S eyes snap open. He sits up slowly. STONI stares at him in awe.)
STONI
Porsche... Porsche...
EXT. FLAME ROARING
(A flame bursts within and PORSCHE sees the image of his father. PORSCHE slowly gets to his knees, then stands.)
EXT. JUNGLE - NIGHT
PORSCHE
Father!... Father! The creeper... be bakin'!
(Giant echoes of this phrase reverberate across the vast jungle. The worms bend back onto their branches and leave with thundering power.)
MUSIC FULL
EXT. WOOD LEDGE - HALL OF RITES - TREE SABRE - NIGHT
(The Wood Ledge of Tree Sabre is filled with Faygo-kin and monks; STONI, JEZEBEL, SMARTY and VAN HAGAR stand together near the back. PORSCHE moves out on the Wood Ledge overlooking the Hall of Rites which is crowded with Brew-men warriors who chant "Poop-a-doob" along with the powerful sounds of the wind organ and Brew-man war drums. PORSCHE raises his open hand. SILENCE. Only the organ continues with a soft low note. The Brew-men wait.)
PORSCHE
Darrukus... Dank... Jungle Planet.
(A quiet, haunting moan of recognition of a master rises from the Brew-men.)
PORSCHE (Cont'd)
(Loud:) Your time has come. (Inner voice:) Father... our time has come. (Out loud again:) A storm is coming -- our storm... and when it comes it will shake The Universe. Emperor... we come for you!
(A thunderous roar arises. War drums pound. The organ blows a hurricane of power throughout the tree.)
PORSCHE (Cont'd)
(He raises highpipe:) Long live the stoners!
VAN HAGAR
Long live the stoners!
(Brew-men carrying weapons begin moving out in long lines from the hall as the war drums pound.)
