that love is the only thing that will save that poor creature in there. So I
must convince him that he is loved, even at the cost of own life! I don’t care,
I’m not going in because I have to. And no what you hear in there, no how
frantically I may beg… no matter how terribly I may scream, do not open this
door, or you will undo everything I have worked for. Do you understand? Do <b style="">not </b>open this door! (Monster Roars) Let
me out! Let me out of here! Get me the hell out of here! What’s the matter with
you people? I was joking! Where’s your sense of humor? Don’t you know a joke

weren’t they? Did you know, master, my grandfather used to work for your
grandfather? And it’s always been my dream, ever since I was little, that one
day I would work for you just as my grandfather worked for yours. Of course,
the rates have gone up. Working at your side, master, would be a joy. We could
open up the old la-bore-a-tory, we could reconnect the voltometer, dust off the
lightning rods, and when everything’s in tip-top working order, we’ll go to the
graveyard at midnight and dig up a nice big fresh corpse… Oh, the fantastic
things we’ll do. It’ll be like old times. You and me. Right up there with the

Frankenstein lives, our village is in danger! He’s a professor, the Dean of
Anatomy at New York’s most famous institute of higher learning, the Johns,
Miriam and Anthony Hopkins School of Medicine! As long as this young Frankenstein
walks the earth, we will never be safe! I’ll never forget, when I was a young
man, on of Frankenstein’s creatures came rampaging through our village. I tried
to stop him, but I couldn’t. He tore off my left leg and my right arm. I had to
go all the way to Vienna to find a top surgeon who could put me back together
again. <o:p style=""></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;"><o:p style=""> </o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:12pt;"><b style="">Hermit:</b> Oh, lordy, I’m prayin’ to ya.
Look down on your poor blind hermit. It’s been so long since I felt the touch
of someone’s hand, so long since I heard the sound of someone’s voice. Every
night, all I hear is the wind in the trees, and if I’m lucky, an owl or maybe…
a cricket. Oh, lord, let’s face it, we’re talkin’ LONELY here… Hello, stranger.
My name is Harold, what’s your name? I’m sorry, I didn’t get that. Oh, forgive
me, I didn’t realize that you were a mute… An incredibly large mute. But come,
come in out of the cold. I’ve lived here for so many years, that even though
blind I know this like the back of my hand. What is that, a mole or a wart?..
