Road Rovers - Space Ace Archies Show by Scott Space Ace Oliverson ARCHIE as Space Ace REGGIE as Hunter JUGHEAD as Buzz Lightyear VERONICA as Colleen BETTY as Kimberly HOT DOG as Anabelle STORY #1 SPACE ACE Hi, you know what I heard? Rumor has it that Colleen's having a chivelry kick. You know back in the old medieval days. Like when guys had to prove they were brave and stuff like that for their girlfriends... (Suddenly something flies past his head, hits the wall above the sofa. It is a NERF arrow with a note attached to it.) SPACE ACE Hey! What's this? Sir Ace. I hearby challenge you to a jousting duel. To the winner goes maiden Colleen's hand. Signed Sir Hunter. P.S. may the best man win. P.S.S. and that means me signed Sir Hunter? Oh yeah?! Well we'll just see about that! (Later, Ace confronts his rivalry and prepares for wargames.) SPACE ACE Has thou ready canosapien knight? HUNTER Thou ready human knight! COLLEEN Oh Kim, isn't it groovy how these two men fight over me? KIMBERLY If you like it that much. Why don't you get a front-row seat at Madison Square Garden. ANABELLE Gee I don't know which fight to watch. Is it the one over there, or the one over there? (Suddenly both knights charge each other on unicycles with jousting poles in their hands.) SPACE ACE Charge! HUNTER Charge nothing, I prefer cash on the buck. KIMBERLY Careful Ace. SPACE ACE Huh? What? (He gets nailed in the face by the padded end of the pole and goes flying off his cycle.) SPACE ACE So why did you distract me Kimmy? KIMBERLY I didn't want you to get hurt Ace. (Winces as her ex-boyfriend hits the ground on his ass.) SPACE ACE Well thanks. After this, just don't ever talk to a jouster when he's just about to joust. HUNTER Cool! That about takes care of the hero of earth, and I claim the hand of the fair maiden Colleen. COLLEEN Blimey let's go celebrate at malt shoppe sir Huntie. BUZZ LIGHTYEAR Hey, what's with all the medieval jazz-type huh? KIMBERLY Oh Colleen's on a chivelry kick. You know the knight in shining armor bit. SPACE ACE Shining armor? YEAH! The jedi knight will rise again! (He runs off, as Kim, Buzz and Anabelle look on in puzzlement.) BUZZ LIGHTYEAR I wonder what he meant by that? ANABELLE I have a hunch I know what he meant by that. I WAS RIGHT! KIM AND BUZZACE??? SPACE ACE Colleen said she wanted a knight in shining armor, and that's what she's gonna get!(Ace is wearing an antique suit of armor and riding on horseback.) ANABELLE If it had a label on it, it would pass for a talking can of dogfood. BUZZ LIGHTYEAR He's got ole Bess, the plow-horse! (Both he and Kimberly begin laughing at the sight.) SPACE ACE Come valiant steed. Maiden Colleen waits at malt shoppe. ANABELLE For Bess's sake, I hope it's not far. (At the malt shop we see Hunter and Colleen sharing some ice cream.) HUNTER Have another banana split fair maiden? COLLEEN No thank you sir Huntie. Eek! What's that? HUNTER Whoa! Unless I'm mistaken. It's a mechanized garbage can. SPACE ACE Alas Rover Knight. Come forth to do battle! Shit, I hate it when that happens! HUNTER I'd love to Ace ole boy but I forgot my can opener, heh-heh. However with this fishing pole and carrot I shall improvise. (He slides pole with carrot attached to string on end through pomel of saddle. Bess the horse sees it, goes crazy!) SPACE ACE Hey! What gives?! HUNTER Hi ho Silver! (The horse races away, trying to grab the carrot with Ace hanging on in terror!) SPACE ACE Yeeeehow! Whoa, whoa bess, HEEELP! HUNTER Ho, ho, hahahaha! COLLEEN That was a dirty trick Hunter. HUNTER What do you mean? I washed the carrot first. SPACE ACE Steady steed! Ah come on Bess, act your age! (Bess is still galloping at fast speed. She begins racing through Hill Valley's main street causing cars & trucks to slam on their brakes, pedestrians leaping out of the way, etc. One moment police captain Klegghorn stops traffic from crossing out as the horse races by him through the intersection.) SPACE ACE Ahhh, thanks officer. KLEGGHORN Ah don't mention it. What are kids going to wear next? (Suddenly Anabelle chasing after the horse cannonballs into him from behind, knocking the captain off his feet and onto his butt. The angel-whippet slides to a stop.) ANABELLE I don't know why I'm running. When I can wait for the rest and ride. Ahh here they come now. One for the money, two for the show, oops. They're coming fast, I'd better GO! (Jumping high into the air she lands squarely through the open roof window landing in the backseat.) ANABELLE Yeah! How's that for timing! SPACE ACE Oh no, it's a traffic light Bess! Bess you went through a red light! Now quit horsing around, use your head. Whoa! What head?! (Now we see Commander Borf standing on a nearby corner) BORF Now what was it Belledona wanted me to get her from the store? SPACE ACE HEEEEEEELP MEEEEEEEE! BORF Uh flipped nut? Hey, now I remember what Belle wanted from the store. A can of nuts! Ace? Is that you in that tin can! AHAHAHAHAAH! KIMBERLY Step on it 007. We must find Bess. COLLEEN This is all my fault. Oh poor Ace. HUNTER Hey what are you worrying about he's well protected. Ouch! Hey! I'm not. KIMBERLY You, YOU! BUZZ LIGHTYEAR Hold it gang there he is! KIMBERLY He's headed this way. Do something Lightyear we gotta stop Bess. BUZZ LIGHTYEAR I'll try talking some horse-sense to her! ANABELLE OH NO! BUZZ LIGHTYEAR Stop! Halt in the name of Buzz Lightyear, I command you... (The horse carrens into him, throwing Lightyear end over end landing him onto his butt and backside.) BUZZ LIGHTYEAR You stupid four-legged nag! I oughta send you to the Glue Factory! ANABELLE Sigh! It's a good thing the ranger landed on his helmet, or he could've gotton hurt. KIMBERLY C'mon Buzz! BUZZ LIGHTYEAR I'm coming! To infinity and beyond! SPACE ACE Whoa Bess, heel! (Suddenly he falls off backside of horse and is dragged along the ground bouncing and throwing up sparks from his armor suit.) HUNTER Now that's what I call a knight full of starch. Ho-ho-ha-ha-ha-ha! SPACE ACE Ouch, Ouch, Oh-oh-OW! ANABELLE He went that-a-way! SPACE ACE Oh no, doomsday! Danger open hole! (Ace sees a manhole cover off a sewer opening in the ground. Bess actually goes into the hole, still chasing the carrot throwing Ace skyhigh into the air. He comes down, landing in a wagon and goes rolling off down the streets!) SPACE ACE Kids shouldn't leave their toys lying around where knights can fall in them! KIMBERLY Ace and Bess seem to have dissapeared. HUNTER Yeah, let's go home. COLLEEN Wait, look! Ace is that you? HUNTER No Ace is riding a white horse. He's riding... A WAGON?! (Suddenly Ace crashes the wagon into an obstruction, goes flying into the air again and lands on the horse's back again!) SPACE ACE I guess I should start living right. Uh-oh, I take that back! COLLEEN Ace! Ace are you alright? Ohh you are my hero! SPACE ACE Man, like the job may be rough. But I dig the salary. (Later Hunter looks on as Bess is eating her carrot.) HUNTER Well Bess, I see you got your carrot, heh-heh you sure gave ole Ace a ride, ha-ha! I'd wonder what she'd do for a sugar cube, ho-ho-ha-ha-ha-ha! (Angerd, Bess kicks a bucket or pail which flies through the air and lands on Hunter's head! He takes off running in a panic.) HUNTER Help! Keep her away from me, she's a beast! ANABELLE I think that's one sugar cube that G.I.Joe owes Bessie, HAHAHAHAAH! (Later that night...) KIMBERLY Isn't that disgusting...Ah, romantic Lightyear? BUZZ LIGHTYEAR Mush! If you ask me that's a flakey way for a knight to end the day man. (He's refering to Ace and Colleen sitting on Bess, resting their heads against each other, arms around one another and gazing up at a night sky filled with stars and a full moon. Bess snickers to herself.) THE END OF STORY #1
