Transcript[]
Mr. Lunt: Hey there!
Larry: Hey there, Mr. Lunt!
Mr. Lunt: I'm Mr. Lunt. What's your name?
Larry: I'm Larry the Cucumber, also known as Minnesota Cuke.
Mr. Lunt: Wow, who else you got here with us today in the studio?
Larry: Sweet-
Petunia: Princess Petunia!
Larry: Hello, Petunia! All right, we wanted to give the illusion that this was the Alps. That's my new, that's my new PDA, it has a really cool calender on it, too.
Mr. Lunt: Really? Well, that's pretty cool, and how's the coverage there on the North Pole?
Larry: Doesn't re- Well, I get Bob, that's about it.
Mr. Lunt: You get Bob?
Larry: Yeah, I get Bob, Bob comes in.
Mr. Lunt: Oh, okay.
(fade to Minnesota climbing the snowman)
Larry: You know, this, this was a really cold day.
Mr. Lunt: Yeah?
Larry: It actually, the-the it-it'd been warned the day before.
Mr. Lunt: Yeah?
Larry: And the- and the snow melted, and it turned back into ice.
Mr. Lunt: Oh, that must have been hard and crunchy then.
Larry: It was, and sliding down the hill was no picnic, let me tell you that.
Mr. Lunt: That- That- So that nose is what, eight feet tall?
Larry: That's one big nose.
Mr. Lunt: Well, that must've weighed like a thousand pounds.
Larry: So this ice, can you imagine, it's hard and crunchy.
Mr. Lunt: It's hard and crunchy.
Larry: And I fall down, that, I'm- I'm not screaming there, but I'm screaming there. It's not because I'm falling.
Mr. Lunt: This reminds me, well that kinds reminds me of The Toy That Saved Christmas.
Larry: So the snow reminded you of other snow?
Mr. Lunt: Yeah!
Larry: Wait-
Mr. Lunt: Got that other movie we made with snow in it.
Larry: Ohh!
Mr. Lunt: We've only made like two movies with snow in them.
Larry: Oh, you're talking about the-
Mr. Lunt: Everything else has sand because it's biblical.
Larry: There you are, Rattan.
Mr. Lunt: Hey that's me!
Larry: Now you picked up the-
Mr. Lunt: What am I doing?
Larry: You're picking up the nose.
Mr. Lunt: Huff, because finders keepers, losers weepers, is that the lesson?
(fade to Minnesota and Marten at the Moose Lake Children's Museum)
Larry: This is the Moose Lake Children's Museum. We don't really have anything.
Mr. Lunt: Yeah.
Larry: In- in the shelves, but um-
Mr. Lunt: I like that jacket, but can you really call it a jacket when it has no sleeves? Now that feller, that's the bad guy.
Larry: But he's looking sharp. I like the 3-piece suit he's got going there.
Mr. Lunt: He is looking sharp, and the way he's slicking his hair back nowadays.
Larry: It's really nice.
Mr. Lunt: It's very sophisticated.
(fade to Minnesota talking to Julia)
Larry: This was Tim's idea.
Mr. Lunt: Why are we- Why are we staring at his zipper?
Larry: This is like a little bit of a, you know, um, an old-time movie shooting trick right there.
Mr. Lunt: Really? They used to do that in the old times?
Larry: In the old-time movies.
Mr. Lunt: Before they had a tripod and get the camera up to your eyes?
Larry: I think so.
Mr. Lunt: Man, we've come a long way.
Larry: And all the way up to Malta.
Mr. Lunt: Are those records on the wall?
Larry: Yep, those are records.
Mr. Lunt: Do we know what re- hey, there's LarryBoy, I see LarryBoy on the wall!
Larry: Yeah, there's LarryBoy.
Petunia: I was too busy eating ice cream on my breaks to notice the records on the wall.
Mr. Lunt: How many years did you work in this place?
Petunia: You know, we just worked here for the shoot.
Mr. Lunt: Oh really?
Petunia: Oh yeah, it was just a treat for the day.
Me. Lunt: You're not really- you're not really an ice cream lady?
Petunia: I'm not, but I got to experience it, and I studied lots of ice cream. (As she says this, it fades to Rattan entering the ice cream shop)
Mr. Lunt: Oh, hey look, there's me! You know, I look pretty good in that hat. I don't know how my jacket- I've got no sleeves. Why is there only one flavor of ice cream in that freezer?
Larry: Well, it all mixes together.
Mr. Lunt: It makes pink?
Petunia: And it makes it pink.
Larry: Yeah.
Mr. Lunt: When you mix every flavor of ice cream, it makes pink? (As he says this, it fades to Julia in the flooded ice cream shop.)
Larry: That's right. Okay, now Petunia, tell us, was this scary or what?
Mr. Lunt: How did that happen?
Petunia: Really scary, it was exactly my first time that I had to do stunts.
Mr. Lunt: Wow, did you practice it or did they just throw you in there and say, "Oh- Oh boy, I hope she has a twin sister if this don't work out."
Petunia: (laughs) That's what it felt like sometimes, but no, we had to practice this 'cause it was real scary.
Larry: Wait-wait, here comes my line. "Care for a scoop?" That's what I said.
Mr. Lunt: That's what you said?
Larry: I thought about that line myself.
Mr. Lunt: Ohh, that's something like Arnold Schwarzenegger would say in a movie.
Larry: Yeah, that's an action hero line right there.
Mr. Lunt: That's, that's good, that's a good one, that's T-shirt worthy. (fade to the Barbershop of Seville) Now here's the barbershop and we're in Seville which as we know is a town in-
Larry: Spain.
Mr. Lunt: Spain.
Larry: And as we know, Italian barbers work at the Spanish barbershop.
Petunia: Of course.
Mr. Lunt: Yes, well, it's a themed barbershop.
Larry: Yes.
Mr. Lunt: Because the Spanish love to have their hair cut in the Italian way. These two guys, they're being all, they're pretty funny guys, yes.
Petunia: They are funny, we laughed so hard. Remember how many times we get to reshoot this?
(fade to Minnesota talking to Marten)
Mr. Lunt: So where did we actually shoot this? It wasn't really in Spain, was it?
Larry: Um, well, no, it was on a sound- a soundstage.
Mr. Lunt: Soundstage, right.
Larry: Yeah, yeah.
Mr. Lunt: Franklin?
Larry: Yeah, and Franklin, but we did get some, um, some really cool feedback painted backdrops to make it look like Spain.
Mr. Lunt: Yeah, I like those.
Larry: Yep.
Mr. Lunt: But sometimes you go running in the scene and you forget that is painted backdrop and you smash right into it.
Petunia: Right into the wall.
Larry: That's the oldest cartoon trick in the book right there.
Mr. Lunt: Like the coyote.
(fade to Minnesota going through the sewers)
Larry: Okay.
Mr. Lunt: Going through the sewers.
Larry: Now this is really cool because-
Mr. Lunt: Did that smell bad?
Larry: No, it was, it was fine because it's been deserted for a long time.
Mr. Lunt: There were no rats?
Larry: Ahh, no, there's no rats, there's no food down there.
Mr. Lunt: It's a pretty nice tour, as sewers go.
Larry: It is. Yeah, Spanish sewers are pretty nice as it goes, as sewers go.
Mr. Lunt: Really? Wow.
Larry: So, um, So, actually, so he finds the story of Samson down here kinda carved into the rock cause it's been around a long time. The Brotherhood of the Hairbrush put that there.
Mr. Lunt: Right. And then- oh look, a big giant room, like the size of a football field under the ground.
Larry: Yeah.
Mr. Lunt: They always do that in the movies, but if someone actually had to dig one of those rooms, don't you think people would notice?
(fade to Minnesota getting a call from Marten)
Larry: This really sold me on my phone right here.
Mr. Lunt: What fact?
Larry: The fact that I could be in a catacomb hundreds of feet below the city and I'm still getting Bob clear as a bell.
Mr. Lunt: I know, that was pretty amazing.
Petunia: And you got him on top of the mountain clear as a bell, too.
Larry: That's right. Really good reception.
Petunia: That thing works well.
Mr. Lunt: You should do some kind of testimonial advertisement. (fade to Rattan without his hat on) Oh, look at me, look at me go- ohh.
Petunia: Ohh, there's your hair.
Mr. Lunt: Man, you know, I was thinking this movie would make me look good, but I don't think that is the case.
Larry: You don't look so bad.
Mr. Lunt: I look ridiculous.
Larry: Here, watch- Here, watch, all- all you gotta do, is grab the brush, and uh, do a little uh, barber work there and you'll be fine.
Petunia: Oh, this is where you get your swab makeover.
Ohh, look at that!
Petunia: Ohh...
Mr. Lunt: Ohh, yeah, now I look like an insurance salesman.
Larry: Very nice though.
Mr. Lunt: I don't know. (fade to the copyright info) Hey, is the show over?
Larry: I think so.
Mr. Lunt: Is that the end?
Petunia: Oh, that went fast!
Larry: Okay, bye!
Mr. Lunt: Well, thanks for coming, everybody!
Petunia: Bye!
Mr. Lunt: Goodbye!
