[Darkened theater: Repelli, Lauretta seated in audience, snacking—light flickering from screen, interspersed with female actor’s agonized moan.]

Repelli: [Speaking to Lauretta in hushed tone] Having fright? [Quick smile before continuing] ..Running low on frog eyeballs?

Lauretta: [Speaks slightly above whisper] Why, I don’t know which is more frightening—the movie or the eyeballs. [Makes silly grin]

[Repelli, Lauretta, Gomez standing in Addams parlor—Morticia seated in rattan wicker peacock chair.]

Morticia: [Addressing Repelli, Lauretta] How was the movie?!

Repelli: A fright! [He, Lauretta smile.]

Holocron of revan

[Gomez, Morticia, Repelli, Lauretta cheerfully entering parlor through foyer.]

Morticia: [Removing shawl—black as dress—from shoulders] That was a wonderful day ... [smiles, lays shawl over wicker peacock chair.]

Gomez: Hell Caverns... a glimpse beyond the grave. [Grins before continuing] Under-worldly... dark, spacious, desolate ... [middle of thought]

Repelli: [Interjects] Sulpher pit ... [grins]

How did you like it, Lauretta?

Lauretta: Oh... a whole other world. [Said ecstatically]

Lurch: [Suddenly appearing, speaking in deep, resonant voice.] DINNER WILL BE SERVED.

[All gravitate to dining area, including Uncle Fester coming down staircase, Grandma’ma hovering over table. Everyone sits, Lurch serves.]

Grandma’ma: Been cooking all day. [Smiles] Morticia, you know how I like the toil and trouble ... [smiles before continuing]

Morticia: Yes, Ma’ma. [Smiles]

Grandma’ma: [Addressing all at table] Now I know you had an exciting day... I want to hear all about it, but you must be famished. Eat now, and tell me all about it after later. Hope you enjoy the soufflé of aardvark; caterpillar larvae for dessert.

Salt, pepper, Lauretta? You won’t hurt my feelings—a little seasoning is fine. Morticia can help you with cyanide, if you like. [Smiles]

[Morticia begins opening bezel of ring]

Lauretta: Why, no ..thank you. [Smiles]
