Dinosaurs (1991–1994): Season 3, Episode 5 - Little Boy Boo - full transcript

After the Baby pulls a stunt that scares Robbie half to death, he decides to tell the Baby a true, terrifying story; he has been bitten by a bloodthirsty creature known as a wereman and will become one when the moon is full.

- Mama!
- Hmm?

Want cookie.

You may have a cookie
when you've finished your dinner.

- Aw!
- La-la!

Oh, Mom, we're gonna be late
for my play if we don't leave now.

- Just a minute.
- You know I'm the lead wood nymph.

If I'm not there, the enchanted
forest thing goes right down the toilet.

Fran, I have been waiting in that car
with your mother for ten minutes.

Just your mother and me, in the car,

ten minutes.

[screaming]



- I'm on my way.
- Thank you.

- Robbie, we're leaving.
- OK.

Now, honey, your brother is finishing
his dinner, so no cookies for him

- till he cleans his plate.
- [Baby] Want cookie.

You sure you don't mind
having to stay here and babysit?

To avoid Charlene's play, I'd be
willing to throw myself down the stairs,

sustain severe head injuries and
eat through a tube the rest of my life.

- That's sweet, dear.
- [sighs]

- [Fran] Bye!
- Bye.

- ([crashing)
- Huh?

Freeze!

Set the cookie down.

I'm in charge and I'm telling you,
put the cookie down.

Hey, uh-uh.
Don't you even think about it.



Very good.
Nice and slow. That's it.

[gasps, gobbling]

Hey, I told you not to do that. Come on,
spit it out! Come on, spit it out.

Don't you swallow.
Don't you dare swallow.

- [grunts]
- Huh?

- [choking]
- Are you OK?

Baby, little guy, come on.

Come on, swallow!
I'm sorry I yelled at you.

Please don't... Put your arms up!
Lift your arms, come on, now breathe!

Swallow! You're not breathing,
you're not breathing!

- Swallow! Huh?
- [sighing]

Oh, no, what did I do?

Oh, OK, OK, OK, OK!
You can have the cookie!

Honey, I'm home!

Aaah!

- Ohh!
- Ow!

- Ow!
- Ooh!

[chuckling] Aah!

[Robbie] Oh, no! What did I do?

Aw, come on, little guy.
Please, please. Aw, jeez!

What am I gonna do? Ah.

No, Mom and Dad are gonna kill me.
You gotta wake up. Please.

Oh, come on, I gotta do something.
I'll call an ambulance.

What is that emergency number?
What is it?

- [Baby] Nine-one-one!
- Nine-one-one.

Uh... [clears throat]

Hello. Hello, Emergency?

Yeah, I wanna report
a dead baby dinosaur.

What happened? Well,
he pretended to choke on a cookie

and when his big brother found out he
was faking, he beat the tar out of him.

[laughs]

Hey, that was a dirty trick.
I was really scared.

- [laughing]
- Don't you laugh at this.

[blows raspberry, laughs]

Hey, don't you scare me like that again.

Scaring someone like that
is not funny at all.

Yes, it is!
[chanting] I scared you! Ha-ha!

- [laughing]
- You think you're funny.

- I'm a scream! [laughs]
- You're going to bed.

No, no, no, no.
Not bed, not sleepy. Tell me a story.

After what you just pulled?
You're going straight to bed.

Story, story, story!

- Hmm, you want a story?
- Yeah.

OK, I'll tell you a story.

And you like the scary stuff, right?

- Uh-huh.
- OK.

- How about if we make it a scary story?
- Ooh...

Yeah, scary story!

OK, this is a totally true story
that happened on an autumn night

- just like this one.
- Uh-huh.

There was a full moon in the sky,
and a cold wind in the air.

I was walking this girl home
from a date...

[girl] Gosh, Robbie,
it's really nice of you to walk me home,

but why do we take a shortcut
through a graveyard?

- Don't you think it's kind of romantic?
- Romantic? [yelps]

- Are you nuts? It's a graveyard!
- Oh, yeah.

But don't you think
it's got a kind of... mood?

- [girl] Yeah, a real creepy mood.
- [Robbie] Aw.

[girl] Isn't this where
those kids got attacked by cavemen?

- Oh, that story?
- Yeah.

Well, little lady,
if there's a rabid caveman here,

and I highly doubt it,

you needn't worry because
Robbie Sinclair is here to protect you.

- [roaring]
- Ah!

- Oof!
- [girl screaming]

[roaring]

Hey, hey, come here, you! Yeah,
you're pretty good at beating up girls!

Let's see how you do
with somebody your own size!

- [roaring]
- Oof!

That... That was pretty respectable.

[grunting]

So what are you gonna
do now, smart guy, huh? Huh?

[screaming]

Ow, my arm! My arm! Ow!

- Ow!
- [caveman grunting]

- Are you all right?
- [sighs] Yeah, I think so.

[groans] Oh, Robbie,
you were so brave.

- Huh?
- You saved my life.

Well, I guess I did, didn't I?

- Oh, your arm!
- Oh, no.

- Is it bad?
- No, it's just a scratch.

- Oh!
- Uh, a really big scratch

- that bleeds a whole lot.
- Oh, Robbie!

Don't worry about me.
Let's get you home, huh?

All right... Huh?

- He bit you? Were you all right?
- I wasn't sure.

The wound the caveman gave me
was like nothing I'd ever seen.

- Did you wash it with soap and water?
- 1did.

- But the strange thing was...
- [gasps]

...it wouldn't heal.

- Get out of here!
- No doctor could help me.

But there was one dinosaur
who knew of such things.

[Baby] Who?

[Robbie] The oldest
and wisest dinosaur in the land.

- [Baby gasps]
- Excuse me.

You have come for advice
to ease the torment in your soul.

Wow! How did you know that?

Not many guys come out here
just to shoot the breeze.

I see your point.

So I've come to see you because
I was bitten by a caveman last night

- near the old graveyard.
- Did you wash with soap and water?

- Yes.
- Let me see the wound.

Oh, um...

- Here.
- Oh...

A strange mark appeared on my hand.

Yes, I have seen
this kind of mark before.

- Huh?
- It means...

...you may re-enter
the amusement park at any time

- without paying a second admission.
- No, no, no, not that mark. This one.

Oh! [clicks tongue]

- This one's not so good.
- Huh?

- It is the sign of the pentagram.
- [moans]

- You were bitten by...
- Yeah, but just by a caveman.

Not a caveman. A wereman.

- What?
- A wereman is a creature

- that is cursed!
- Huh?

A dinosaur who turns into a caveman
when the moon is full.

But... What's gonna happen to me?

More bad news.
Now the curse has passed to you.

- [grunting]
- Now you will change

at the coming of the full moon.

You will thirst only
for the blood of innocent ones.

Yeah, but there
must be a way to stop it.

There is only one way.

You must strike yourself senseless
with a club of the purest silver.

Uh, a club of silver?
And then I'm cured?

Of the curse, you're cured.

But the extensive facial
and internal organ damage, oh, boy!

[gasps]

Oh, no!

- The moon's coming up!
- Then hurry!

- Hurry, that you may save yourself.
- Yeah!

Remember, a silver club!

Solid silver, not plate.

Go to a reputable dealer.

I have a cousin!

I raced home, desperate to rid myself
of the terrible curse.

I had little time
before the full moon would rise again.

And my only hope
lay in finding a silver club

with which to beat myself senseless.

Unfortunately, the stores were all out.

So I had to make due with a spoon.

This could take hours. [grunting]

- [howling]
- Huh?

[whimpering]

Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Oh.

[panting, grunting]

[moaning] Ow, ow, ow, ow!

[groaning]

[heavy metal plays]

Hey, you wanna turn that down?
I'm on the phone here.

I can't gossip
without you interrupting...

[grunting] Ah!

What's happening to me?

[crackling]

[groaning, screaming]

What happened? What happened?

The curse of the wereman was upon me.

Slowly and painfully,
my body was transforming

into that of a ferocious,
vicious caveman,

with hair growing out of me everywhere!

[whimpering] Aah!

[grunting]

[howls]

- Scared yet?
- No.

Good, 'cause now it gets really scary.

- Oh...
- So that night, as the wereman,

I went into a terrible rampage!
[roaring]

[whimpering]

[roars]

[chattering, laughing]

[Charlene] I want one of these,
two of those, one of this.

If Mom knew we were
cheating on our diets,

- she'd have a cow.
- [both] Moo!

- [laughing]
- [roaring]

- 1 fold you she'd be mad.
- Oh...

Hi, Fran.
We didn't think you'd be up this late.

- Ah!
- [roaring]

[both] Oh!

Jeez, Fran, um,
how can I say this delicately?

- You look, uh...
- Like a stinking, hairy caveman. Yuck.

You have a lot to learn about tact.

Well, I'm pretty sure it's not Mom.
Kill it, Daddy. Kill it!

- Oh, yeah, right. Get away!
- Come on!

Shoo! Off with you now!
Go on, out of here!

- Get going! Get out! Beat it!
- Ha!

- What was that?
- Oh, some sort of strange

inexplicable creature, half-human, and
yet with a weird dinosaur-like quality.

It's like nothing
we've ever seen before.

- What should we do?
- Hunt it down and kill it.

- Uh-huh! I'll call the angry mob.
- Oh, oh, the number's on the fridge.

- Thanks.
- Sure.

[Baby stammering]
Then what happened?

[Robbie]! roamed the night,

desperately thirsting
for the blood of a dinosaur.

Any dinosaur.

He loves me. [giggling]

He loves me not.

- He love...
- [snarling]

- [roaring]
- [screaming]

- Oh!
- [snarling]

Wait.

I know you.

Somehow.

- [snarls]
- [screams]

- Look, there it is!
- Yeah.

Let's kill the monster we don't
understand and therefore fear.

- Yeah! Let's get it.
- [clamoring]

[Robbie] As I ran from the mob
like a hunted beast,

it dawned on me [ had almost killed
the one dinosaur that I truly loved!

Or at least had gotten
to second base with.

And then the true horror
of my fate swept over me.

I was doomed to relive
this nightmare night after night.

Stalking the earth.

Thirsting for the blood
of innocent dinosaurs.

- Scared yet?
- [stammering] No way!

- Can't scare me!
- Oh, yeah?

Well, there is something
I forgot to mention.

[stammering] What?

The old gypsy in the woods had said
there were two ways to end the curse.

- No, she didn't!
- Yes, she did.

You just forgot.

So I went to the forest
to find her again.

- [Robbie panting]
- Why have you returned?

You have to help me! You said there was
another way to end the curse.

- 1 did?
- Yes, remember?

Oh. Oh, right.
The other method for removing the curse.

- Yeah.
- Yeah. [clears throat]

I can't tell you. It's too horrible.

I don't care. You must tell me!

Nothing could be more horrible
than this living hell!

All right. I will tell you
the extremely horrible and scary way.

- Come closer.
- Huh?

The only other way to end
the curse of the wereman is this:

You must eat the toes
of a bad baby dinosaur

who won't go to sleep when he's told.

- [stammering] What?
- You must eat the toes

of a bad baby dinosaur
who won't go to sleep when he's told.

[stammering] All of them?

All of them. Even the piggy toes.

[laughing]

And that is what she told me,
just one hour ago.

- Huh?
- That's right!

- It's not a story at all.
- Not a story?

No, it's all true.

And now we both know what I must do
to end my life of torment.

- What?
- You understand, don't you?

- No!
- That's why I sent them to the play.

- Huh?
- Why I stayed home with you tonight.

[laughing]

Look, the moon is rising. It is full.

Soon, I will become the wereman.

- I must act now. [roaring]
- Oops.

Dropped my doll. Get it, please.

Sure, little buddy.
It's right down here.

Right near your toes. [laughing]

[laughing]

[roaring]

[yelling]

[laughing]

I got ya. I got ya good.
How does it feel?

Hey. Hey, where'd you go?

Uh, um... Uh...

Hey, come on,
I was only kidding.

- Where are you?
- [Baby] My toes, my toes!

Stay away! Help! Help! Ah!

Hey, hey, hey!
I was only making it up.

I just wanted to show you
that it isn't funny being scared.

- Now come on down!
- [screaming]

Come down!
Look, it's me, Robbie.

I'm not a wereman. It's only a story.

You're saying that
'cause you want me to come down

So you can eat my toes!
And it's a full moon!

And you're gonna turn
into a caveman! Help! Help!

Mama! Mama!

No, no, no, look!
I just made it up. It's not true.

Yes, it is. Mommy!

OK, look, look, look.
If you come down,

- I'll give you a cookie.
- Mommy!

I'll give you all the cookies.

- OK, let's talk.
- OK. Look.

- Here's the cookie jar, and...
- It's empty!

- You promised. Mommy!
- No, no, no. Wait. Look, look.

I'll get you some cookies
and candy, I swear!

Where?

- Uh, at the store.
- Store's closed.

All right, all right, look. I'll go
next door and ask them for candy.

What if they don't have it?

Uh, then I'll go from house
to house to house begging for candy

until I get you a whole bagful, OK?
Now, will you come down?

- [doorbell rings]
- For Pete's sake.

Who could be at the door at this hour?

Eh, should have known.

- Hi, sir.

I was wondering if we could have candy.

- Yeah.
- What is this, some kind of trick?

[both] No, no.

- It's a treat for the Baby.
- Yeah!

You Sinclair kids come around here
at this hour of the night on,

what is this, the 31st of October,

and expect me to give you candy?

- Yeah. [laughs]
- Get lost! [scoffs]

- Oh!
- Gee.

Maybe next time,
we should wear costumes.

[both] Nah!

- [heavy metal plays on TV]
- [humming]

First up, new music by Road Kyll.

This is from their
smashing new debut album,

Guts on the Grill.

This is the single,
Doe, a Deer, a Big Dead Deer.

[heavy metal plays]

Stop it! Quiet!

Hold on, hold on.

- What's with you?
- Don't wanna hear that.

Want something good.

Well, I hardly think you're
in the position to do any... Ow!

- Oh! All right.
- [laughing]

- All right. Uh, what do you want?
- I wanna sing!

- You don't have a song.
- Yes, I do.

[scoffs] This is highly irregular.

Whoa! Uh! All right.
All right, all right.

[clears throat] OK. Um...

Here is the, um, baby with...
