Once upon a time warp. . . .
In a galaxy very, very, very, very, far away, there lived a ruthless
race of
beings known as . . . Spaceballs.
Chapter Eleven
The evil leaders of Planet Spaceball, having foolishly spuandered
their precious atmosphere, have devised a secret plan to take every
breath of air away from their peace-loving neighbor,
Planet Druidia.
Today is Princess Vespa's wedding day. Unbeknownest to the princess,
but knowest to us, danger
lurks in the stars above. . .
If you can read this, you don't need glasses.
EXT. SPACEBALL 1 - SPACE SPACEBALL
1 passes by at a slow speed. It
takes the ship about two minutes to pass. At the end of the ship is
a bumper sticker
that says, "WE BRAKE FOR NOBODY."
INT. SPACEBALL 1 - SPACE SANDURZ is standing in the front of the
ship.
RICO Colonel Sandurz.
SANDURZ What is it, Sergeant Rico?
RICO You told me to let you know the
moment Planet Druidia was in
sight, sir.
SANDURZ So.
RICO Planet Druidia is in sight, sir.
SANDURZ
You're really a Spaceball. You know that, don't you?
RICO Thanks, sir.
SANDURZ Have you notified Lord Helmet?
RICO
Yes, sir. I took the liberty. He's on his way.
VOICE (O.S.) Make way for Dark Helmet.
SANDURZ All rise in the
presence of Dark Helmet.
A door opens revealing DARK HELMET, he resembles Darth Vader,
walking toward camera. He stops in front of camera, and is having
trouble
breathing with the mask down.
HELMET (pulls mask up) I can't breathe in this thing.
SANDURZ We're approaching
Planet Druidia, sir.
HELMET Good. I'll call Spaceball City, and notify President Skroob
immediately.
RICO
I already called him, sir. He knows everything.
HELMET What? You went over my helmet?
RICO Well, not exactly
over it, sir. More on the side. I'll always
call you first. It'll never happen again. Never, ever!
HELMET (puts
on Schwartz ring)
RICO Oh shit! No, no, no, no, no, please, no, no, please, no, not
that. (covers his neck)
HELMET
(pulls mask down) Yes. That. (shoots a green ray at Rico's
crouch)
RICO Whaoooooooo! Owwwwwwwwww!
GUARDS
take him away. HELMET Sandurz.
SANDURZ (covers his crouch) Sir?
HELMET I don't see Planet Druidia. Where is
it?
SANDURZ We don't have visual contact yet, sir, but we have it on the
radar screen. Shall I punch it up for
you?
HELMET Na, nevermind. I'll do it myself.
HELMET and SANDURZ walk to the radar screen. HELMET stops in front
of the coffee maker.
SANDURZ Very good, sir. HELMET What's the matter with this thing?
What's all that churning
and bubbling? You call that a radar screen.
SANDURZ No, sir. We call it, "Mr. Coffee." (points at
label,
"Mr. Coffee") Care for some?
HELMET Yes! I always have coffee when I watch radar. You know that.
SANDURZ
Of course I do, sir. HELMET Everybody knows that.
EVERYBODY (covers their crouch) Of course we do, sir.
HELMET
(takes coffee) Now that I have my coffee, I'm ready to watch
radar. Where is it?
SANDURZ (points to label "Mr.
Radar") Right here, sir.
HELMET Switch to teleview.
RADAR changes to a picture of Planet Druidia.
HELMET
There it is, Planet Druidia, and underneath the air shield,
ten thousand years of fresh air. We must get through that
air
shield.
SANDURZ We will, sir. Once we kidnap the princess, we will force her
father, King Roland, to give
us the combination to the air shield.
Thereby destroying Planet Druidia and saving Planet Spaceballs.
HELMET Everybody
got that. Good! When will the princess be married?
SANDURZ Within the hour, sir.
HELMET Well, I hope it's a
long ceremony, 'cause it's gonna be a
short honeymoon. (takes a drink of coffee) Mmmmmmm, mmmmmm, mmmmmm.
SANDURZ
hits his back. HELMET spits out coffee and his mask falls
down. HELMET (mask down) Hot! Too hot!

few things to
her.
DOT Besides, he's gotta a sexy voice. He might be cute.
BARF Yeah, but, you don't know what she looks like.
LONE
STARR I know what she looks like. If you've seen one princess,
you've seen 'em all.
VESPA Cute? I know these space
bums. They're all alike. Fat,
ugly....
LONE STARR Bucked-toothed, knocked-knees....
VESPA ....bear-swilling,
pigs.
LONE STARR ....horse-faced, space dogs. (gets up and goes to the
back)
BARF Yeah, well, I normally
I'd, (gets up with seat belt still on)
ow, that's gonna leave a mark.
VESPA Now listen you....
LONE STARR
You listen. On this ship, you're to refer to me as idiot
not you captain. I mean, you know what I mean.
VESPA And
you will not call me you. You will never address me as
you. You will call me your royal highness.
LONE STARR You
are royal pain in the....
BARF Whoa, hold it, time.
LONE STARR & VESPA What?
BARF May I make
a small suggestion? Any minute now, Spaceballs is
gonna make a major U-turn, head back this way, and make us all dead.
LONE
STARR He's right. Let's go.
VESPA Wait. My things.
LONE STARR Listen, you royal....
VESPA Mmmm.
LONE
STARR ....highness. Take only what need to survive.
BARF Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.
DESERT - DAY VESPA is walking down
with an umbrella. DOT is
following her with a cart. LONE STARR and BARF are following with a
trunk.
DOT Please,
slow down. I'm getting sand up my gears.
BARF Gees. I hope she didn't forget anything.
LONE STARR All right,
wait a minute, Barf, put it down. What the
hell's in this thing. LONE STARR opens the trunk and pulls out a
huge hair
dryer.
LONE STARR What's this? I said take only what you need to survive.
VESPA It's my industrial strength
hair dryer, and I can't live
without it.
LONE STARR Okay, princess. That's it. The fairy-tale is over.
Welcome
to real-life. You want this hot-air machine, you carry it.
(drops it in the sand)
VESPA You pick that up.
LONE
STARR You pick that up.
VESPA How dare you, you insolent peasant. Nobody talks to me that
way. Nobody. Nobody.
(echoes)
LONE STARR Well, what have we got here? Will you look at her.
BARF Oooooo.

lips. You know something princess, you are ugly when you're angry.
DOT
Uh-oh.
VESPA That's it. You and your dog are f....
BARF Please, please. Total humans, droids, if I may. It's
going to

LONE
STARR See, it's lighter.
BARF Oh yeah. This is best. I could carry two of three of these.
INT. SPACEBALL
1 - SPACE HELMET, SANDURZ, and CORPORAL are watching
the radar.
HELMET (mask down) Have you found them yet?
CORPORAL
No, Lord Helmet. They're still not on the scanners.
HELMET Well, keep looking for them. (drinks coffee through his
mask)
SANDURZ Pardon me, sir. I have an idea. Corporal, get me the video
cassette of Spaceballs-the Movie.
CORPORAL
Yes, sir.
CORPORAL walks to a wall labeled, "Mr. Rental." The wall
opens. He looks through the
selections.
HELMET Colonel Sandurz, may I speak with you, please?
SANDURZ Yes, sir.
HELMET (lifts up
mask) How could there be a cassette of Spaceballs-
the Movie. We're still in the middle of making it.
SANDURZ That's
true, sir, but there's been a new breakthrough in
home-video marketing.
HELMET There has?
SANDURZ Yes. Instant
cassettes. They're out in stores before the
movie is finished.
HELMET Naaaaa.
CORPORAL Here it is, sir.
Spaceballs.
SANDURZ Good work, Corporal. Punch it up.
CORPORAL starts the tape. It starts on the FBI Warning.
SANDURZ
Started much too early. Prepare to fast-forward.
CORPORAL Preparing to fast-forward.
SANDURZ Fast-forward.
CORPORAL
Fast-forwarding, sir.
Starts fast-forwarding through the ludicrous speed scene. Helmet is
thrown into the panel
at a high-speed.
HELMET Nnnnno. Go past this, past this part. In fact, never play
this again.
SANDURZ Try
here. Stop.
The movie stops at the exact same thing that is actually happening
now. HELMET looks at the camera,
then he turns back to the monitor.
SANDURZ looks at the camera when HELMET looks back at the monitor,
then he looks
back at the monitor. HELMET looks at the camera when
SANDURZ looks back at the monitor. When HELMET turns back, he waves
his hand. He turns back to the camera.
HELMET What the hell am I looking at? When does this happen in the
movie?
SANDURZ
Now. You're looking at now, sir. Everything that happens
now, is happening now.
HELMET What happened to then?
SANDURZ
We passed then?
HELMET When?
SANDURZ Just now. We're at now, now.
HELMET Go back to then.
SANDURZ
When?
HELMET Now.
SANDURZ Now?
HELMET Now.
SANDURZ I can't.
HELMET Why?
SANDURZ
We missed it.
HELMET When?
SANDURZ Just now.
HELMET When will then be now?
CORPORAL rewinds the
tape. He stops at the point when LONE STARR,
BARF, VESPA, and DOT are walking through the desert.
SANDURZ Soon.
HELMET
How soon?
CORPORAL Sir.
HELMET What?
CORPORAL We've identified their location.
HELMET Where?
CORPORAL
It's the Moon of Vega.
SANDURZ Good work. Set a course, and prepare for
our arrival.
HELMET When?
CORPORAL
Nineteen-hundred hours, sir.
SANDURZ By high-noon, tomorrow, they will be our prisoners.
HELMET Hoooooo. (mask
falls down)
DESERT - NIGHT DOT is sleeping with a light going that says,
"Sleep Mode." VESPA
is cold and trying to keep warm. LONE
STARR offers her his coat.
VESPA No thank you. I'm perfectly all right.
LONE
STARR Take it. It's freezing (puts the jacket on her)
VESPA If you insist. (smells the alcohol on the coat) Won't you
be
cold?
LONE STARR Na, cold never bothers me.
VESPA I can't seem to find Druidia.
LONE STARR It's
right there.
VESPA Where?
LONE STARR Right there. (points to a blue star) It's that bright,
blue one, right
there. See?
VESPA Oh, yeah. But it's so far away.
LONE STARR Don't worry. I'll get ya there.
VESPA Which
one's yours?
LONE STARR Who knows.
VESPA You don't know where your from?
LONE STARR Not really. I was
found on the doorstep of a monastery.
VESPA Monastery? Where?
LONE STARR Somewhere in the Ford Galaxy.
VESPA
Well, didn't the monks tell you who your parents?
LONE STARR They couldn't. They took a vowel of silence. All I got
was this.
He pulls a medallion out from his shirt. It has some type of
writing. LONE STARR It was around my
neck.
VESPA What is it?
LONE STARR I don't know. I've taken it to every wise man in the
universe. No one
can tell me what it means.
VESPA It's beautiful. You know I.... It's beautiful.
LONE STARR puts the medallion
back in his shirt.
LONE STARR So, how come you ran away from your wedding?
VESPA Well, if you must know, I wasn't
in love with the groom.
LONE STARR Why were you gonna marry him?
VESPA Because, I'm a princess, and I have to
marry a prince. LONE
STARR Ah, and he doesn't do it for you, huh?
VESPA No, he doesn't do it for me. I really must
go back. I
shouldn't have run away. I realize, now, that love is one luxury a
princess cannot afford.
LONE
STARR You're probably right.
VESPA I know, now, that I must live without love.
LONE STARR I guess so.
VESPA
Besides, love isn't that important.
LONE STARR Naaa, never was.
VESPA I could be perfectly happy the rest of
my life without love.
(looks at him)
LONE STARR Sure you could.
VESPA Without physical contact.
LONE
STARR Yeah.
VESPA Without being held. (moves closer to him)
LONE STARR Yeah. (moves in closer)
VESPA
Or kissed.
VESPA and LONE STARR are about to kiss when an alarm starts going
off. DOT'S Virgin Alarm is going off.
BARF
(wakes up) Abandon ship. Abandon ship. Women and mogs first.
DOT walks over to VESPA and LONE STARR. DOT We'll have
none of that,
mister. (to Vespa) How far did he get? Where'd he touch? Where'd he
touch?
VESPA Nothing happened.
LONE
STARR What the hell was that noise?
DOT That was my Virgin Alarm. It's programmed to go off before you
do. You
get back to bed, miss. And as for you, sex-fiend....
LONE STARR All right. All right. Let's all get some sleep. We
gotta
get moving before dawn.
BARF Why so early?
LONE STARR Because, we're in the middle of the desert,
and we're not
gonna get far once that blazing sun gets overhead.
DISSOLVE TO: A blazing sun.

was
a sweet- 16 present.
HELMET No, it's not what you think. It's much, much, worse. If you
do not give me the combination
to the air shield, Dr. Schlotkins
will give your daughter back (holds up picture) her old nose.
VESPA Nooooooooooooooooooo.
Where did you get that?
ROLAND All right, I'll tell. I'll tell.

No, wait, wait. I'll tell. I'll tell.
HELMET I knew it would work.
HELMET and SANDURZ go closer to the screen.
SANDURZ is going to
write the combination down.
HELMET All right, give to me.
ROLAND The combination is
(hesitates) one.
HELMET One.
SANDURZ One. (writes)

HELMET Five.
SANDURZ Five. (writes)
HELMET So the combination
is one, two, three, four, five. (lifts
mask) That's the stupidest combination I've ever heard in my life.
That's the
kinda thing an idiot would have on his luggage.
SANDURZ Thank you, your highness.
SANDURZ takes a remote out
of his pocket, points it at the wall, and
hits a button. Instead of turning off the wall, he turned off the
whole
movie. A blank screen appears. GRETCHEN is making sensual
noises.
HELMET What'd you do?
SANDURZ I turned
off the wall.
HELMET No you didn't. You turned off the whole movie.
SANDURZ Well I must have pressed the wrong
button.
HELMET Well, turn it back on. Put the movie back on.
SANDURZ Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
The screen comes
back on. HELMET and SANDURZ are standing in front.
SCHLOTKINS is kissing on GRETCHEN'S breasts. She is still making
sensual
noises.
HELMET We gotta get that thing fixed. We're back, and we have the
combination. Schlotkins.
SCHLOTKINS
(turns around) What?
GRETCHEN zips up her dress.
HELMET We're done with you. Go back to the golf course and
work on
your puts.
SCHLOTKINS Let's go Arnold. Come Gretchen. Of course, you know, I'll
still have to bill
you for this.
SCHLOTKINS, ARNOLD, and GRETCHEN walk out the door. GRETCHEN looks
at HELMET and SANDURZ before she
walks out.
HELMET I bet she gives great helmet.
SKROOB walks in.
SKROOB Well, did it work? Where's the
king?
HELMET It worked, sir. We have the combination.
SKROOB Great. Now we can take every last breath fresh
air from
planet Druidia. What's the combination?
SANDURZ One, two, three, four, five.
SKROOB One, two, three,
four, five?
SANDURZ That's amazing. I've got the same combination on my luggage.
Prepare Spaceball 1 for immediate
departure.
SANDURZ Yes, sir.
SKROOB, SANDURZ, and HELMET start walking out the door.
SKROOB And change

SLENDER DOOR GUARD Gees.
Hey you can't park here.
CHUBBY DOOR GUARD Yeah, can't you guys read: No parking.
BARF opens the door and flicks

noises. BARF is hinting they're lovers.
SLENDER DOOR GUARD That son of a.... (cocks
gun)
The SLENDER DOOR GUARD and CHUBBY DOOR GUARD go to the door that
BARF went back in.
SLENDER DOOR GUARD
All right, hands up. You're under arrest for
illegal parking.

They walk in. The
EAGLE 5 starts rocking back and forth. The guards
are shouting. Afterwards, LONE STARR comes out in the SLENDER DOOR
GUARD'S
uniform. BARF comes out in the CHUBBY DOOR GUARD'S
uniform. His tail is sticking out the back of the pants. They walk

going. The PRISON GUARD looks back at them. He notices BARF'S TAIL.
He
looks forward again.
PRISON
GUARD Nah.
INT. PRISON DOME - ROYAL PRISONS - NIGHT LONE
STARR and BARF walk in. They notice a sign above the doorway.
It
says,
"ROYAL PRISONERS ONLY. MAXIMUM SECURITY."
LONE STARR She's gotta be in one of these
cells.
BARF Yeah, but which one.
They search in each door. They open the eye slot
on each door they look
through.
BARF No.
LONE STARR No.
VESPA(O.S.) (sings in deep voice) Nobody knows....
LONE STARR
It's coming from there.
BARF That can't be her.
LONE STARR and BARF walk towards the cell VESPA'S
singing

VESPA(O.S.) (sings in deep voice) ....the trouble
I've seen.
LONE STARR opens the eye slot.
He finds VESPA
inside. DOT is sleeping next to her.
VESPA (sings in deep voice) Nobody knows but Jesus.
LONE
STARR It's her.
BARF looks in.
VESPA (sings in deep voice) Nobody knows the trouble
I've seen.
BARF
She's a bass.
VESPA (sings in deep voice) Glory hallelujah.
LONE STARR opens the door with the key he used
to
open the front door. He and BARF walk in. The door closes on
BARF'S
TAIL.
BARF Hieee.
VESPA What do you
what? DOT wakes up.
LONE STARR (takes off helmet) It's me.
BARF (takes off helmet) It's us.
VESPA Lone
Starr. How'd you find us?
LONE STARR No time to talk. C'mon.
BARF We gotta move.
DOT Barf. How'd you
do it?

with DOT. They sneak out of the hall.
SPACEBALL
CITY - INT. PRISON DOME - INNER HALLS

door.
LONE
STARR stops.
SLENDER DOOR GUARD(O.S) Freeze!
The SLENDER DOOR GUARD and the CHUBBY DOOR GUARD
are standing
in the hall with their guns. They are in their
underwear.
SLENDER DOOR GUARD Those are the guys that stole
our
uniforms. (cocks gun)
CHUBBY DOOR GUARD And beat the shit out of us,
too. (cocks gun)
LONE STARR cocks his
gun. He fires it at the door
guards. The door guards run off. Laser blasts come from another
hall.
LONE STARR
Ah-oh, we got company.
LONE STARR kneels down and crawls over to the
opposite wall. VESPA, BARF, and DOT follow. LONE
STARR and BARF fire
at
the troopers that are firing at them.
BARF Dammit. That's our only way out.
VESPA
We're trapped!
DOT Oh, I hate these movies.
LONE STARR and BARF keep firing at the troopers.
BARF throws
his gun down.
BARF I'm outta ammo.
LONE STARR Get back. I'll hold 'em off.
LONE STARR and the TROOPERS
keep firing at each
other.
BARF I got an idea.
BARF walks over to a quad-pipe loop. LONE STARR
stops firing
and stands up.
LONE STARR What are you doing?
BARF starts to pull out the pipes.
DOT What's he doing?
BARF
pulls out half of the pipes. He takes it
to the hallway where the firing is coming from. He faces the
openings to
the
TROOPERS. The TROOPERS fire at BARF. The shots go into the
pipes. They
enter the top and exit the bottom. All the shots
hit each TROOPER.
When
each TROOPER is hit, they fall down.
LONE STARR Good work.
Laser blasts come out
of another hall.
LONE STARR Ah-oh, more ping-pongs. Run for it.
BARF Let's go.
BARF starts running down
a hall. LONE STARR starts
running. VESPA and DOT start running.
VESPA It's closing.

LONE STARR, BARF, VESPA, and DOT turn around.
The stunts of LONE STARR,
BARF, VESPA, and DOT turn around.
CAPTAIN Ha. What a pity. What a pity. So, Princess,
you thought you could outwit
the imperious forces of....
CAPTAIN looks at VESPA with his mouth open. VESPA'S
STUNT is a man with a cigar in his
mouth.
CAPTAIN You idiots! These are not them. You've
captured their stunt doubles! Search the area. Find them!
Find them!
SPACEBALL CITY - EXT. PRISON DOME - NIGHT The
real BARF, LONE STARR, VESPA, and DOT come out of the PRISON
DOME.
LONE
STARR is firing at TROOPERS that follows them out the door. A laser
blast
hits the lock on a door
of the EAGLE 5. BARF runs over to the that
door.
He tries to open it.
VESPA Open the door.
BARF I can't.
It's fused.
VESPA Well, what about this one? (pulls on another
door)
BARF It's locked.
VESPA Well,
where are the keys?
BARF Inside.
VESPA Oh, great!
LONE STARR Duck!
BARF, DOT, and VESPA lean against
the EAGLE 5.
LONE STARR runs back towards the door that's fused. He hands his gun
to
VESPA.
LONE STARR Here,
you hold 'em off. I'll get the
door.
VESPA I ain't shootin' this thing. I hate guns.
A TROOPER fires at VESPA'S
hair. The laser blast
hits it.
DOT Ah.
VESPA My hair. He shot my hair. Son of a bitch.
(cocks gun)
VEPSA
walks toward the TROOPERS. She starts firing
at the them. She hits every one of them. BARF and LONE STARR look
up.
BARF
Holy shit.></P>

SKROOB Yes.
HELMET puts his tongue back in his mouth.
SANDURZ

LONE STARR We've gotta act fast. Step 1, we reverse
the vacuum and blow the air back
on the planet; step 2, we destroy
that
thing.
VESPA But isn't that dangerous?
LONE STARR Extremely, plus,
I don't know how the
hell we're gonna do it. BARF What about that ring Yogurt gave you?
LONE STARR Oh yeah. LONE
STARR pulls the Schwartz
ring out of his pocket.
LONE STARR But....

shows a layout of the ear canal. It shows how
the EAGLE 5 is
maneuvering
through the canal. LONE STARR turns on the scanning switch.
DOT Careful. Careful.
BARF
What are you doin'?
LONE STARR Scanning. There's gotta be a self-
destruct mechanism somewhere in the central brain
area.
The scanner looks around the ship.
LONE STARR I think we just found it. VESPA Where?
LONE STARR
Watch.
LONE STARR hits a switch. The television monitor
shows a a red flashing button.
LONE STARR Bingo.

GUARD (MILA) What the hell are you doin'?
LONE
STARR The Vulcan Neck Pinch.
GUARD (MILA) No, no, stupid, you've got it much
too high. It's down here where the
shoulder meets the neck.
LONE STARR changes his hand position.
LONE STARR Like this?
GUARD (MILA) Yeah.
(falls down unconscious)
LONE STARR Thanks. LONE STARR takes the key card
from the GUARD'S belt. He uses it in the
panel to open the door. The
panel
opens up showing an outline of a hand.
PANEL'S VOICE Hand print identification,
please.
Hand print identification, please.
PANEL'S VOICE keeps repeating. LONE STARR takes
the glove off the
hand of the guard. He puts it in the outline. The
voice
stops. It scans the hand. A door opens next to the panel.
LONE
STARR Thanks again. (knocks on Guard's helmet)
LONE STARR goes in the door.
INT. SELF-DESTRUCT ROOM - SPACE
LONE STARR walks
in. He notices green bars guarding the self- destruct button.
SELF-DESTRUCT GUARD Is that you Mila?
LONE
STARR reacts. He points the Schwartz ring
at a can of Spaceballs-the Shaving Cream. It starts to move towards
him.
The
SELF-DESTRUCT GUARD reacts. He turns around to LONE STARR who
catches
the can.
SELF-DESTRUCT GUARD Who are you?
What are you
doing with that?
LONE STARR This.
LONE STARR sprays shaving cream in the eyes of
the SELF-DESTRUCT
GUARD. The SELF-DESTRUCT GUARD screams and opens
his
mouth. LONE STARR sprays the cream down his mouth. The SELF-DESTRUCT
GUARD
falls down unconscious.
LONE STARR Sweat dreams.
LONE STARR takes the card off the SELF-DESTRUCT
GUARD'S
belt. He inserts it into a panel and moves a switch to pull
up
the green bars. The green bars disappear. LONE STARR
walks up to the
self-destruct
button. It says, "DO NOT PUSH UNLESS YOU REALLY, REALLY, MEAN
IT."
LONE
STARR begins to press the button.
HELMET (mask down) Not so fast, Lone Starr. (walks
in)
LONE STARR Helmet.
So, at last we meet for the
first time for the last time. (thinks about what he said) Yeah.
HELMET Before you die,
there is something you
should know about us, Lone Starr.
LONE STARR What?
HELMET I am your father's brother's
nephew's cousin's
former room-mate.
LONE STARR What's that make us?
HELMET Absolutely nothing. Which is what
you are
about to become. Prepare to die.
HELMET puts his Schwartz ring on. He puts his
hands next to his crouch.
A green light beam similar to a light
saber.
LONE STARR does the same.
HELMET You have the ring, and I see your
Schwartz
is as big as mine.
Both look at their beams.
HELMET Now let's see how well you handle it.
HELMET
walks over to LONE STARR and starts to
fight with him. They swipe at each other with their beams. HELMET
pulls
back
a little too far and knocks off the sound manager from the
stage crew.
He screams and falls off a ledge. LONE STARR
and HELMET stop
fighting.
HELMET Ummm, he did it.
LONE STARR What?
LONE STARR swipes at HELMET. HELMET
blocks it.
They start fighting again. They swipe at each other until their
beams become
twisted.
HELMET Shit.
I hate it when I get my Schwartz
twisted. Okay, maybe if my put leg up on yours we can split apart.
HELMET puts
his foot on LONE STARR'S leg.
HELMET Good, yeah. On three; one, two, three,
go.
HELMET and LONE STARR pull
away from each other.
Their beams disappear. HELMET looks up and recreates his beam. He
points
it at LONE STARR.
LONE STARR does the same and points his at HELMET.
They
move in closer. Their beams touch ends. They are trying to
cause the
other
to lose their beam. HELMET loses his beam. LONE STARR swipes at
HELMET'S
helmet. It doesn't
make a mark. He tries again, same. He tries
again, same.
HELMET lifts his mask up and laughs at him. LONE STARR'S beam
disappears.
He punches HELMET'S face. HELMET'S mask falls down. He recreates his
beam
and charges at LONE STARR.
LONE STARR holds him back with his hand.
HELMET
swipes at him several times. LONE STARR lets go of HELMET. HELMET
runs
into
a locker with his helmet.
HELMET So, Lone Starr, Yogurt has taught you well.
If there is one thing I despise, it
is a fair fight. But if I must
than
I must. May the best man win. Put 'er there. (offers to shake his
hand)
LONE
STARR goes to shake his hand. HELMET takes
the ring off LONE STARR'S hand.
HELMET The ring. I can't believe you
fell for
the oldest trick in the book. What a goof. What's with you man? Come
on.
You know what? No, here let me
give it back to you. (offers the ring
back)
LONE STARR goes up to get the ring back. HELMET
throws it in a grate.
The ring goes in the grate. LONE STARR tries
to catch
it and falls to the grate.
HELMET Oh, look. You fell for
that, too. I can't
believe it man.
LONE STARR gets up and runs to a corner.
HELMET So, Lone Starr, now you
see that evil will
always triumph, because good is dumb.
HELMET fires a green beam at LONE STARR. LONE
STARR
dodges. HELMET tries again. LONE STARR dodges. HELMET tries
again.
LONE STARR dodges. LONE STARR backs into another
corner.
HELMET Very impressive, Lone Starr. Too bad this
isn't the Wide World of Sports.
YOGURT'S VOICE Use
the Schwartz, Lone Starr. Use
the Schwartz.
LONE STARR I can't. I lost the ring.
YOGURT'S VOICE(O.S.) Forget
the ring. The ring
is pumpkin. I found it in a Cracker Jack box. The Schwartz is in
you, Lone
Starr. It's in you.
LONE
STARR All right. I'll try.
HELMET Say goodbye to your two best friends, and
I don't mean your pals in the Winnebago.
LONE
STARR points his fist at a mirror on a shelf.
It starts to move towards him. HELMET fires another green beam at
his
crouch.
LONE STARR catches the mirror, and cover his crouch. The beam
reflects
off the mirror to HELMET. It hits
HELMET'S crouch. HELMET falls back
into
the self-destruct button and activates it.
SHIP'S VOICE Thank you for
pressing the self-destruct
button. This ship will self-destruct in three minutes.
LONE STARR runs out of the room.

pod. A
bearded

HELMET Hey, hey, that's my escape pod. Who are
you?
BEARDED LADY I'm the bearded

One of the freaks?
The BEARDED LADY knees HELMET in the crouch. She
laughs. She gets in the

HELMET No. Come back you fat, bearded, bitch.
SKROOB,
SANDURZ, and HELMET don't notice a bear
getting in the last pod.
SKROOB One pod left, and three of us, and I'm

SKROOB gets in the
pod. He sits on the bear. He
tries to buckle the arms of the bear like there are a seat belt. He
looks
at the bear
and reacts. The bear chases him out of the pod. The bear
closes
the door and waves at SKROOB. The pod takes off.

button.
It has a sign on that says, "OUT OF ORDER."
SANDURZ Out of order?

(laughs) On a sadder note, Pizza the Hut
(famed
half-man, half-pizza) was found dead earlier today in the back seat
of
his stretched limo. Evidently, the notorious gangster became locked
in
his car, and ate himself to death.
Coming up, Pongo's review of
Rocky five....thousand.
Pongo.
BARF laughs and turns off the television.
BARF
Did you here that? Pizza kicked the bucket.

going up the waitress's mini-skirt.
WAITRESS You ready to order? CUSTOMER Hi, yes.
We'll both have the luna fish.
WAITRESS
Okay, anything to drink? (turns around)
Hey, hey, watch you're stickin' that thing.

The WAITRESS walks away to another
table. BARF
howls like a dog. LONE STARR hits him.
BARF What?
Some people are sitting at the other end of
the
bar. One of them is telling a story. One of them (JOHN HURT) is
eating.
GUY AT BAR We were lost. None of
us knew where
we were. And then Harry began feelin' around on all the trees. And
then
he says, "I got it:
we on Pluto. And we said, "Harry how
can
you tell?" He said, "From the bark you dummies.
(laughs)
From
the bark. (laughs)
JOHN HURT starts to act like he's choking on his
food. Then he grabs his
stomach like he has indigestion.
WOMAN AT BAR Is he all right?
GUY AT BAR Yeah, this guy digs me.
JOHN
HURT spits out some of his food. They lie
him down on the bar. LONE STARR and BARF look and react.
WOMAN AT BAR
Bring some water.

The WAITRESS comes over to BARF. She looks over
to JOHN HURT.
WAITRESS Oh, he had the special.
BARF The spec....
That's what I ordered. Change my order to the soup.
LONE STARR Good move.
Something is
trying to push out of JOHN HURT'S
stomach. It eventually comes out. A little alien comes out of his
stomach.
It
growls. JOHN HURT looks at it.
JOHN HURT Oh, no. Not again.
The ALIEN jumps out of his stomach on to Spaceballs-the
Placemat.
Some people scream. The ALIEN growls again. Then, it puts
on
a little hat and starts to dance down the bar.
ALIEN
Hello, my baby. Hello my honey. Hello my
rag-time gal. Sonny my pitched my wild. Baby my heart's on fire.
The ALIEN
dances past LONE STARR and BARF. LONE
STARR and BARF react.
ALIEN If you refuse me, honey, you lose me, then
you'll
be left alone. Oh baby, telephone and tell I'm your own.

doors close
behind him. LONE STARR and BARF stand up.

Your mother was a
queen.
Which makes you a certified prince.
LONE STARR Hey, I'm a prince. I'm a prince. Which
means....

Once upon a time warp. . . .
In a galaxy very, very,
very, very, far away, there lived a ruthless
race of beings known as . . . Spaceballs.
Chapter Eleven
The
evil leaders of Planet Spaceball, having foolishly spuandered
their precious atmosphere, have devised a secret plan to
take every
breath of air away from their peace-loving neighbor, Planet Druidia.
Today is Princess Vespa's wedding
day. Unbeknownest to the princess,
but knowest to us, danger lurks in the stars above. . .
If you can read this,
you don't need glasses.

it, Sergeant Rico?
RICO You told me to let you know the moment Planet Druidia was in
sight, sir.
SANDURZ
So.
RICO Planet Druidia is in sight, sir.
SANDURZ You're really a Spaceball. You know that, don't you?
RICO
Thanks, sir.
SANDURZ Have you notified Lord Helmet?
RICO Yes, sir. I took the liberty. He's on his way.
VOICE
(O.S.) Make way for Dark Helmet.
SANDURZ All rise in the presence of Dark Helmet.
A door opens revealing DARK
HELMET, he resembles Darth Vader,
walking toward camera. He stops in front of camera, and is having
trouble
breathing with the mask down.
HELMET (pulls mask up) I can't breathe in this thing.
SANDURZ We're approaching
Planet Druidia, sir.
HELMET Good. I'll call Spaceball City, and notify President Skroob
immediately.
RICO
I already called him, sir. He knows everything.
HELMET What? You went over my helmet?
RICO Well, not exactly
over it, sir. More on the side. I'll always
call you first. It'll never happen again. Never, ever!
HELMET (puts

crouch)
RICO Whaoooooooo! Owwwwwwwwww!

take him away. HELMET Sandurz.
SANDURZ (covers his crouch) Sir?
HELMET I don't see Planet Druidia. Where is
it?
SANDURZ We don't have visual contact yet, sir, but we have it on the
radar screen. Shall I punch it up for
you?
HELMET Na, nevermind. I'll do it myself.
HELMET and SANDURZ walk to the radar screen. HELMET stops in front
of the coffee maker.
SANDURZ Very good, sir. HELMET What's the matter with this thing?
What's all that churning
and bubbling? You call that a radar screen.
SANDURZ No, sir. We call it, "Mr. Coffee." (points at
label,
"Mr. Coffee") Care for some?
HELMET Yes! I always have coffee when I watch radar. You know that.
SANDURZ
Of course I do, sir. HELMET Everybody knows that.
EVERYBODY (covers their crouch) Of course we do, sir.
HELMET
(takes coffee) Now that I have my coffee, I'm ready to watch
radar. Where is it?
SANDURZ (points to label "Mr.
Radar") Right here, sir.
HELMET Switch to teleview.
RADAR changes to a picture of Planet Druidia.
HELMET
There it is, Planet Druidia, and underneath the air shield,
ten thousand years of fresh air. We must get through that
air
shield.
SANDURZ We will, sir. Once we kidnap the princess, we will force her
father, King Roland, to give
us the combination to the air shield.
Thereby destroying Planet Druidia and saving Planet Spaceballs.
HELMET Everybody
got that. Good! When will the princess be married?
SANDURZ Within the hour, sir.
HELMET Well, I hope it's a
long ceremony, 'cause it's gonna be a
short honeymoon. (takes a drink of coffee) Mmmmmmm, mmmmmm, mmmmmm.
SANDURZ
hits his back. HELMET spits out coffee and his mask falls
down. HELMET (mask down) Hot! Too hot!

LONE STARR Spaceballs? Forget it. Too dangerous. Besides, I'm
already numero uno on Dark
Helmet's hit list.
BARF Look, your highness, it's not that we're afraid. Far from it.
It's just we got this thing
about them. It's not us.
ROLAND Please, you must. You're the only ones who can save her. I'll
give anything. Did
you her me? Anything.
BARF Anything?
ROLAND Yes! Anything!
LONE STARR Okay, we'll do it for a million.
ROLAND
A million?

princess for one million spacebucks.
LONE STARR What's she drivin'?
ROLAND A brand new, white Mercedes, 2001

roof, all leather interior. I got it at a very good price. I paid
cash. My cousin, Prince
Murray, has a dealership in the valley. He
was very nice to me.
LONE STARR We get the idea. Where was she last
seen.
ROLAND She was just passing Jupiter 2.
LONE STARR We'll find her.

throw her in reverse, and we'll get outta here. (reaches for the

switch)
LONE STARR (stops him) Barf. No. Bad.
BARF Oh, what are we doing risking our lives for a runaway princess?

it for a shit
load of money!
BARF Oh, you're right, and when you're right, you're right, and you,

LONE
STARR (in microphone) Listen. On this ship, I don't take
orders, I give 'em. This is my dream boat, sweetheart.
VESPA
Sweetheart?

HELMET Hold it. I'll handle this personally.
GUARD Ya-ho, Lord Helmet.
HELMET
(looks at him) So, Princess Vespa, you thought you could
outwit the imperious forces of Planet Spaceball. Well, you were
wrong. You are now our prisoner, and you will held hostage until
such time, as all of the air is transferred from

SANDURZ pulls on emergency
brake which reads, "Emergency Stop,

SANDURZ

HELMET Fine. How've you been?

HELMET Colonel Sandurz, may I speak with you, please?
SANDURZ Yes, sir.
HELMET (lifts up
mask) How could there be a cassette of Spaceballs-

VESPA Monastery? Where?
LONE STARR Somewhere in the Ford Galaxy.
VESPA
Well, didn't the monks tell you who your parents?
LONE STARR They couldn't. They took a vowel of silence. All I got
was this.
He pulls a medallion out from his shirt. It has some type of
writing. LONE STARR It was around my
neck.
VESPA What is it?
LONE STARR I don't know. I've taken it to every wise man in the
universe. No one
can tell me what it means.
VESPA It's beautiful. You know I.... It's beautiful.
LONE STARR puts the medallion
back in his shirt.
LONE STARR So, how come you ran away from your wedding?
VESPA Well, if you must know, I wasn't
in love with the groom.
LONE STARR Why were you gonna marry him?
VESPA Because, I'm a princess, and I have to
marry a prince. LONE
STARR Ah, and he doesn't do it for you, huh?
VESPA No, he doesn't do it for me. I really must
go back. I
shouldn't have run away. I realize, now, that love is one luxury a
princess cannot afford.
LONE
STARR You're probably right.
VESPA I know, now, that I must live without love.
LONE STARR I guess so.
VESPA
Besides, love isn't that important.
LONE STARR Naaa, never was.
VESPA I could be perfectly happy the rest of
my life without love.
(looks at him)
LONE STARR Sure you could.
VESPA Without physical contact.
LONE

VESPA Without being held. (moves closer to him)

touch?
VESPA Nothing happened.
LONE
STARR What the hell was that noise?
DOT That was my Virgin Alarm. It's programmed to go off before you

HELMET
Yogurt. Yogurt. I hate Yogurt. Even with strawberries.
SANDURZ I'll call the attack squad, sir.

appears on the wall in front of him.
COMMANDERETTE President Skroob.
SKROOB (covers crouch) Aaa. I told you
never to call me on this
wall. This is an unlisted wall.
COMMANDERETTE Sorry, sir, but it's very urgent. Princess
Vespa has
just been brought to your office, and Lord Helmet and Colonel
Sandurz are awaiting you there.
SKROOB
All right, all right. Tell them I'll be right there.
COMMANDERETTE Yes, sir. (salutes)

He realizes he uncovered his crouch. He
covers it back up. COMMANDERETTE smirks and disappears off the wall.
SKROOB
flushes the toilet and walks out.
INT. SKROOB'S OFFICE - NIGHT HELMET and SANDURZ are talking to
ROLAND on the
screen. Behind them is VESPA on a table turned
vertically. Also is DR. SCHLOTKINS, GRETCHEN, and ARNOLD.
ROLAND
Helmet, you fiend, what's going on? What are you doing to my
daughter?
HELMET (mask down) Permit me to introduce
the brilliant, young
plastic surgeon, Dr. Philip Schlotkins. The greatest nose-job man in
the entire universe and
Beverly-Hills.
SCHLOTKINS Your highness.
ROLAND Nose-job? I don't understand. She's already had a nose. It
was
a sweet- 16 present.
HELMET No, it's not what you think. It's much, much, worse. If you
do not give me the combination
to the air shield, Dr. Schlotkins
will give your daughter back (holds up picture) her old nose.
VESPA Nooooooooooooooooooo.
Where did you get that?
ROLAND All right, I'll tell. I'll tell.
VESPA No, daddy, no. You mustn't.
ROLAND
You're right my dear. I'll miss your new nose. But I will not
tell them the combination no matter what.
HELMET
Very well. Dr. Schlotkins, do your worst.
SCHLOTKINS My pleasure.
The table turns horizontal. VESPA faints.
ROLAND
No, wait, wait. I'll tell. I'll tell.
HELMET I knew it would work.
HELMET and SANDURZ go closer to the screen.
SANDURZ is going to
write the combination down.
HELMET All right, give to me.

HELMET Five.
SANDURZ Five. (writes)
HELMET So the combination
is one, two, three, four, five. (lifts
mask) That's the stupidest combination I've ever heard in my life.
That's the
kinda thing an idiot would have on his luggage.
SANDURZ Thank you, your highness.
SANDURZ takes a remote out
of his pocket, points it at the wall, and
hits a button. Instead of turning off the wall, he turned off the
whole
movie. A blank screen appears. GRETCHEN is making sensual
noises.
HELMET What'd you do?
SANDURZ I turned
off the wall.
HELMET No you didn't. You turned off the whole movie.
SANDURZ Well I must have pressed the wrong
button.
HELMET Well, turn it back on. Put the movie back on.
SANDURZ Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
The screen comes
back on. HELMET and SANDURZ are standing in front.
SCHLOTKINS is kissing on GRETCHEN'S breasts. She is still making
sensual
noises.
HELMET We gotta get that thing fixed. We're back, and we have the
combination. Schlotkins.
SCHLOTKINS
(turns around) What?
GRETCHEN zips up her dress.
HELMET We're done with you. Go back to the golf course and
work on
your puts.
SCHLOTKINS Let's go Arnold. Come Gretchen. Of course, you know, I'll
still have to bill
you for this.
SCHLOTKINS, ARNOLD, and GRETCHEN walk out the door. GRETCHEN looks
at HELMET and SANDURZ before she
walks out.
HELMET I bet she gives great helmet.
SKROOB walks in.
SKROOB Well, did it work? Where's the
king?
HELMET It worked, sir. We have the combination.
SKROOB Great. Now we can take every last breath fresh
air from
planet Druidia. What's the combination?
SANDURZ One, two, three, four, five.
SKROOB One, two, three,
four, five?
SANDURZ That's amazing. I've got the same combination on my luggage.
Prepare Spaceball 1 for immediate
departure.

on the planet; step 2, we destroy
that
thing.
VESPA But isn't that dangerous?
LONE STARR Extremely, plus,
I don't know how the
hell we're gonna do it. BARF What about that ring Yogurt gave you?
LONE STARR Oh yeah. LONE
STARR pulls the Schwartz
ring out of his pocket.
LONE STARR But....
BARF C'mon, boss, give it a shot.
LONE

LONE STARR Go to inferred.
BARF Going to inferred. (turns a knob)
LONE STARR Prey to God.
BARF
Preying to God.
The inferred light comes on. The television monitor
shows a layout of the ear canal. It shows how
the EAGLE 5 is
maneuvering
through the canal. LONE STARR turns on the scanning switch.
DOT Careful. Careful.
BARF
What are you doin'?
LONE STARR Scanning. There's gotta be a self-
destruct mechanism somewhere in the central brain
area.
The scanner looks around the ship.
LONE STARR I think we just found it. VESPA Where?
LONE STARR
Watch.
LONE STARR hits a switch. The television monitor
shows a a red flashing button.
LONE STARR Bingo.
There it is. It's right below

BARF Putting her hover.
LONE STARR I'm goin' down

alarm goes off.
INT. MEGA MAID - EXT. SELF-DESTRUCT ROOM

A GUARD is standing next to the door to the self destruct room. LONE
STARR
sneaks up on him and tries to
knock him out with the Vulcan Neck
Pinch.
GUARD reacts.
GUARD (MILA) What the hell are you doin'?
LONE
STARR The Vulcan Neck Pinch.
GUARD (MILA) No, no, stupid, you've got it much
too high. It's down here where the
shoulder meets the neck.
LONE STARR changes his hand position.
LONE STARR Like this?
GUARD (MILA) Yeah.
(falls down unconscious)
LONE STARR Thanks. LONE STARR takes the key card
from the GUARD'S belt. He uses it in the
panel to open the door. The
panel
opens up showing an outline of a hand.
PANEL'S VOICE Hand print identification,
please.
Hand print identification, please.
PANEL'S VOICE keeps repeating. LONE STARR takes
the glove off the
hand of the guard. He puts it in the outline. The
voice
stops. It scans the hand. A door opens next to the panel.
LONE
STARR Thanks again. (knocks on Guard's helmet)
LONE STARR goes in the door.
INT. SELF-DESTRUCT ROOM - SPACE
LONE STARR walks
in. He notices green bars guarding the self- destruct button.
SELF-DESTRUCT GUARD Is that you Mila?
LONE
STARR reacts. He points the Schwartz ring
at a can of Spaceballs-the Shaving Cream. It starts to move towards
him.
The
SELF-DESTRUCT GUARD reacts. He turns around to LONE STARR who
catches
the can.
SELF-DESTRUCT GUARD Who are you?
What are you
doing with that?
LONE STARR This.
LONE STARR sprays shaving cream in the eyes of
the SELF-DESTRUCT
GUARD. The SELF-DESTRUCT GUARD screams and opens
his
mouth. LONE STARR sprays the cream down his mouth. The SELF-DESTRUCT
GUARD
falls down unconscious.
LONE STARR Sweat dreams.
LONE STARR takes the card off the SELF-DESTRUCT
GUARD'S
belt. He inserts it into a panel and moves a switch to pull
up
the green bars. The green bars disappear. LONE STARR
walks up to the
self-destruct
button. It says, "DO NOT PUSH UNLESS YOU REALLY, REALLY, MEAN
IT."
LONE
STARR begins to press the button.
HELMET (mask down) Not so fast, Lone Starr. (walks
in)
LONE STARR Helmet.
So, at last we meet for the
first time for the last time. (thinks about what he said) Yeah.
HELMET Before you die,
there is something you
should know about us, Lone Starr.
LONE STARR What?
HELMET I am your father's brother's
nephew's cousin's
former room-mate.
LONE STARR What's that make us?
HELMET Absolutely nothing. Which is what
you are
about to become. Prepare to die.
HELMET puts his Schwartz ring on. He puts his
hands next to his crouch.
A green light beam similar to a light
saber.
LONE STARR does the same.
HELMET You have the ring, and I see your
Schwartz
is as big as mine.
Both look at their beams.
HELMET Now let's see how well you handle it.
HELMET
walks over to LONE STARR and starts to
fight with him. They swipe at each other with their beams. HELMET
pulls
back
a little too far and knocks off the sound manager from the
stage crew.
He screams and falls off a ledge. LONE STARR
and HELMET stop
fighting.
HELMET Ummm, he did it.
LONE STARR What?
LONE STARR swipes at HELMET. HELMET
blocks it.
They start fighting again. They swipe at each other until their
beams become
twisted.
HELMET Shit.
I hate it when I get my Schwartz
twisted. Okay, maybe if my put leg up on yours we can split apart.
HELMET puts
his foot on LONE STARR'S leg.
HELMET Good, yeah. On three; one, two, three,
go.
HELMET and LONE STARR pull
away from each other.
Their beams disappear. HELMET looks up and recreates his beam. He
points
it at LONE STARR.
LONE STARR does the same and points his at HELMET.
They
move in closer. Their beams touch ends. They are trying to
cause the
other
to lose their beam. HELMET loses his beam. LONE STARR swipes at
HELMET'S
helmet. It doesn't
make a mark. He tries again, same. He tries
again, same.
HELMET lifts his mask up and laughs at him. LONE STARR'S beam
disappears.
He punches HELMET'S face. HELMET'S mask falls down. He recreates his
beam
and charges at LONE STARR.
LONE STARR holds him back with his hand.
HELMET
swipes at him several times. LONE STARR lets go of HELMET. HELMET
runs
into
a locker with his helmet.
HELMET So, Lone Starr, Yogurt has taught you well.
If there is one thing I despise, it
is a fair fight. But if I must
than
I must. May the best man win. Put 'er there. (offers to shake his
hand)
LONE
STARR goes to shake his hand. HELMET takes
the ring off LONE STARR'S hand.
HELMET The ring. I can't believe you
fell for
the oldest trick in the book. What a goof. What's with you man? Come
on.
You know what? No, here let me
give it back to you. (offers the ring
back)
LONE STARR goes up to get the ring back. HELMET
throws it in a grate.
The ring goes in the grate. LONE STARR tries
to catch
it and falls to the grate.
HELMET Oh, look. You fell for
that, too. I can't
believe it man.
LONE STARR gets up and runs to a corner.
HELMET So, Lone Starr, now you
see that evil will
always triumph, because good is dumb.
HELMET fires a green beam at LONE STARR. LONE
STARR
dodges. HELMET tries again. LONE STARR dodges. HELMET tries
again.
LONE STARR dodges. LONE STARR backs into another
corner.
HELMET Very impressive, Lone Starr. Too bad this
isn't the Wide World of Sports.
YOGURT'S VOICE Use
the Schwartz, Lone Starr. Use
the Schwartz.
LONE STARR I can't. I lost the ring.
YOGURT'S VOICE(O.S.) Forget
the ring. The ring
is pumpkin. I found it in a Cracker Jack box. The Schwartz is in
you, Lone
Starr. It's in you.
LONE
STARR All right. I'll try.
HELMET Say goodbye to your two best friends, and
I don't mean your pals in the Winnebago.
LONE
STARR points his fist at a mirror on a shelf.
It starts to move towards him. HELMET fires another green beam at
his
crouch.
LONE STARR catches the mirror, and cover his crouch. The beam
reflects
off the mirror to HELMET. It hits
HELMET'S crouch. HELMET falls back
into
the self-destruct button and activates it.
SHIP'S VOICE Thank you for
pressing the self-destruct
button. This ship will self-destruct in three minutes.
LONE STARR runs out of the room.

pod.
SKROOB Hey, get outta there. Where do you think
you're going?
PIZZA GUY Pizza to go. (laughs)
The
PIZZA GUY pulls on a lever. The door closes
from the top. The pod takes off. HELMET walks up a ladder to his
pod. A
bearded
woman is getting into it.
HELMET Hey, hey, that's my escape pod. Who are
you?
BEARDED LADY I'm the bearded
lady. What are you?
One of the freaks?
The BEARDED LADY knees HELMET in the crouch. She
laughs. She gets in the
pod and takes off. HELMET looks in the
window of
the door.
HELMET No. Come back you fat, bearded, bitch.
SKROOB,
SANDURZ, and HELMET don't notice a bear
getting in the last pod.
SKROOB One pod left, and three of us, and I'm
the
president. Well boys it's a very lovely ship. I think you should
go
down with it. Good-bye.
SKROOB gets in the
pod. He sits on the bear. He
tries to buckle the arms of the bear like there are a seat belt. He
looks
at the bear
and reacts. The bear chases him out of the pod. The bear
closes
the door and waves at SKROOB. The pod takes off.

It
growls. JOHN HURT looks at it.
JOHN HURT Oh, no. Not again.
The ALIEN jumps out of his stomach on to Spaceballs-the

stream of gold glitter behind. They form the words, MAY THE
SCHWARTZ
BE WITH YOU.
