Voice: And now, the Warner Brothers in a scene from Shakespeare’s `Hamlet’, translated for those viewers who, like Yakko, have no idea what he’s talking about.
(Yakko gives a stern look, and Dot, the translator, giggles. In the b.g., Wakko has dug up Skullhead. Yakko sees this, rushes back and snatches him from Wakko, then returns to his previous position.)
Yakko: Alas, poor Yorrick!
Dot : “Whoa, check out Skullhead!”
(Wakko digs up an odd lump of dirt which looks like it has antennae, and tosses it aside, o.s., away from the pile of dirt which has accumulated behind him.)
Yakko: I knew him, Horatio – a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.
Dot : “He was funny.”
(Wakko digs up a mummy, which runs away.)
Yakko: He hath bore me on his back a thousand times.
Dot : “He gave me piggy-back rides.”
Yakko: And now, how abhorred in my imagination it is. My gorge rises at it.
Dot : “I’m going to blow chunks.”
(Wakko pulls a squid out of the grave and tosses it o.s.)
(Yakko kisses Skullhead. Dot looks away, a bit embarrassed.)
(Wakko tosses a kitchen sink out of the grave.)
Yakko: Here hung those lips I have kissed I know not how oft.
(Wakko pulls a pink 1959 Cadillac DeVille convertible out of the grave, then pushes it o.s.)
Dot : “We kissed a lot – not!”
Yakko: Where be your jibes now? your gambols? your songs? your flashes of merriment that were wont to set the table on a roar?
Dot : “How come you’re not funny now?”
(Wakko begins pulling a large rocket from the grave, but must stop to rest before he’s through.)
Yakko: Not one now to mock your own grinning…
(Skullhead’s jaw falls to the ground. In the b.g., the rocket launches.)
Yakko: …quite chop-fallen?
Dot : “No one’s laughing now, and, by the way, your lower jaw’s missing.”
(Dot picks up the jaw from her interpreter’s circle and hands it to Yakko.)
(Wakko uses his shovel once more and lifts Cher out of the grave. She screams, bonks him on the head, and runs o.s. left. Yakko watches Cher run toward the hills.)
Yakko: Now get you to my lady’s chamber and tell her. Let her paint an inch thick. To this favour she must come. Make her laugh at that.
(Yakko tosses Skullhead toward the hills. Skullhead runs after Cher.)
Dot : “Follow that woman and tell her, no matter how much makeup she wears, she’s still going to croak and end up looking just like you, and see if she laughs.”
(In the b.g., Skullhead grabs Cher from behind.)
