BUCKAROO BANZAI:
	See, by all accounts, it appears as though I literally went right
	through a mountain.  But you could take that mountain, and _pulverize_
	it...
	
BUCKAROO BANZAI slams rock down on table.

BUCKAROO BANZAI:
	... and sift through it like breadcrumbs for the rest of your natural
	life, and you would never, ever, find....  THIS.

BUCKAROO BANZAI pulls cover from a large beaker containing a young man 
        apparantly clad only in his underwear, with some kind of white cap
        pulled down over his hair. His hands are tucked up under his armpits
        as if he were trying to flap them like chicken wings, and he is crouching
        on his haunches and looking up at BUCKAROO BANZAI as if expecting to
        be beaten. The audience gasps in horror and surprise. 

BUCKAROO BANZAI:
	And yet, this... sort of... chicken boy... thing... who goes by the name 
        "Squeezit"-- came from out of that basement, even though I was never 
        inside that basement!

-- excerpted from a pre-production script for "Buckaroo Banzai: Adventures Through The Sixth Dimension," co-written by Earl Mac Rauch and Richard Elfman, with music by Danny Elfman and the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo.

The final musical number, featuring a lenghty jam session/fight scene between the Devil (played by Danny Elfman) and his horn section and the Hong Kong Cavaliers, must be read to be believed.
