"The Fire Show," Scene E

We're still at the girls' apartment, "a short time later":

LENNY TURNS OFF THE T.V.

LENNY

Oh.  My sides.  How do Bugs and Woody think of those zany gags.  [Yes, with this punctuation.]

SQUIGGY

I hate to spoil your fun, but Bugs and Woody, they steal from Heckle and Jeckle.  How many times have you seen the paint the tunnel on the rock routine?  It's so old my grandmother fell off her dinosaur laughing at it.

LENNY

It's a classic.

SQUIGGY

It's an old classic.

In the filmed version, the boys are still watching and laughing at the comedy stylings of Bugs Bunny and Woody Woodpecker.

In the script, Shirley tries to pull the boys up when she says she wants their "slimey bodies" out of there, and then "the boys pull her on to the couch between them."  But this doesn't happen onscreen until she says that Laverne is out with "Ted Nelson, fireman."

In the written version, Squiggy calls Shirley "sucker," rather than "sister."

In the filmed version, Squiggy suggests cutting off Laverne's air supply, but Shirley says she can handle this by herself.  In the script, this is what happens after Shirley refers to their slimey bodies again:

LENNY

Low blow on us.

SQUIGGY

But all is forgiven.  Now let's all go to the Bijou.

SHIRLEY

No, I'm gonna take care of this myself.

THE BOYS START TO LEAVE.

SQUIGGY

It's beautiful.  She's strong, like a pioneer woman.

LENNY

And yet, she's gentle, like a fairy princess.

SQUIGGY

And still, she manages to look fresh at the end of the day.

My main thought is I kind of love the boys' lost dialogue, especially the "pioneer princess" part, like they're doing an ad for a feminine hygiene product..
