The New Odd Couple: Beeker and Yoda

from: http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/log/sitcom.htm

Yessir! If they'd been put together fifty years ago, they'd be the original odd couple! Beeker, unfortunate lab assistant cursed with a vocal restraint that only allows him to say "meep", and Yoda, wise old Jedi Knight, with a funny way of going about sentences. Until today, they'd never been seen together (so this sitcom will finally put to rest those rumours that they are the same person, which to be frank were a lot of nonsense in any event)


The Beeker and Yoda Show

Scene Twelve : Beeker Blows Up The Lounge

YODA
Boy oh boy, pooped am I after hard day at office. A good rest I need.

ENTER BEEKER, CARRYING A TRAY OF WIGS. THE CROWD CHEERS.

BEEKER
Meep. Meep.

THE CROWD SCREAMS ENTHUSIASTICALLY

YODA
Experimenting again with exploding wigs are you, young Beeker?

BEEKER
Meep. Meep.

GENTLE LAUGHTER. LIGHT APPLAUSE.

YODA
Careful you be. Make sure always the safety is on.

BEEKER IS WEARING AN ENORMOUS BEEHIVE WIG. HYSTERICAL APPLAUSE.

YODA
Warn you I do, young Beeker. Tears before bedtime there will be.

THE WIG EXPLODES. BEEKER LOOKS SURPRISED.

BEEKER
Meep!

YODA
Foreseen this I had.

THE END


If they'd been thought of fifty years ago, and "Beeker & Yoda" hadn't been thought up, these two would be the original odd couple! A little more saucy than Beeker and Yoda, who had to cater for children's audiences, Nun occasionally turns the air blue with her drug-fuelled outbursts!
