Help! Someone help me!

Maurice?

MAURICE:
Please! Please, I need your help! He’s got her… He’s got her locked in a dungeon!

PERSON #2:
Who?

MAURICE:
Belle! We must go! Not-Not a minute to lose!

GASTON:
Whoa, slow down, Maurice! Who’s got Belle locked in a dungeon?

MAURICE:
A beast! A horrible, monstrous beast!

(Everyone just laughs at Maurice.)

THUG #1:
Is it a big beast?

MAURICE:
Huge!

THUG #2:
With a long, ugly snout?

MAURICE:
Hideously ugly!

THUG #3:
And sharp, cruel fangs?

MAURICE:
Yes! Yes! Will you help me?

GASTON:
All right, old man. We’ll help you out.

MAURICE:
You will? Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!

THUGS:
Crazy old Maurice. He’s always good for a laugh.

GASTON:
Crazy old Maurice, hmm? Crazy old Maurice, hmm…

LeFou, I’m afraid I’ve been thinking

LEFOU:
A dangerous pastime

GASTON:
I know
But that wacky old coot is Belle’s father
And his sanity’s only so-so
Now the wheels in my head have been turning
Since I looked at that loony old man
See, I promised myself I’d be married to Belle
And right now I’m evolving a plan!

If I…

LEFOU:
Yeah, then we…? No, but she…?

GASTON:
Guess.

LEFOU:
Now I get it!

GASTON and LEFOU:
Let’s go!

No one plots like Gaston

GASTON:
Takes cheap shots like Gaston

LEFOU:
Plans to persecute harmless crackpots like Gaston

ALL:
So his marriage we soon’ll be celebrating
My, what a guy, Gaston!
