Photographer: Let’s get a picture. Close together now. The folks and the grandparents. Yes, all the close
family. Ahhh, hold that, Beautiful. And… smile! Congratulations!
Brad: I don’t think there's any doubt about that. You and Betty have been almost inseparable since you
met in Dr. Scott’s refresher courses.
Ralph: Well to tell you the truth, Brad, that’s the only reason I showed up in the first place.
Ralph: Hey big fella, looks like it could be your turn next, eh?
Ralph: Well, so long, see you Brad. Guess we better get going now Betty. Come on, hop in. See ya, Brad!
Janet: Oh Brad, wasn’t it wonderful? Didn’t Betty look radiantly beautiful? I can’t believe it. An hour ago
she was just plain old Betty Munroe and now… now she’s Mrs. Ralph Hapschatt.
Janet: Yes.
Janet: Yes.
Brad: Why Ralph himself, he’ll be in line for a promotion in a year or two.
Janet: Yes.
Brad: I really love the… skillful way… you beat the other girls… to the brides bouquet.
Janet: Oh Brad.
Brad: The river was deep but I swam it. (Janet) The future is ours so let’s plan it. (Janet) So please, don’t
tell me to can it. (Janet) I’ve only one thing to say and that’s Dammit, Janet I love you. The road was long
but I ran it. (Janet) There’s a fire in my heart and you fan it. (Janet) If there’s a fool for you then I am it.
(Janet) I’ve only one thing to say and that’s dammit Janet I love you. Here’s a ring to prove that I’m no
joker. There’s three ways that love can grow. That’s good, bad, or mediocre. Oh, J-A-N-E-T I love you so.
Janet: Oh, it’s nicer than Betty Munroe had. (Oh Brad) Now we’re engaged and I’m so glad (Oh, Brad)
That you met Mom and you know Dad. (Oh Brad) I’ve one thing to say and that’s Brad, I’m mad, for you
too. Oh, Brad…
Brad: And that’s go see the man who began it. (Janet) When we met in his science exam- it (Janet) Made
me give you an eye and then panic. (Janet) Now I’ve one thing to say and that’s dammit, Janet, I love
you. Dammit, Janet.
Narrator: I would like to, ah, if I may, … to take you on a strange journey. It seemed a fairly ordinary night
when Brad Majors and his fiance Janet Weiss, two young, ordinary, healthy kids, left Denton that late
November evening, to visit a Dr. Everett Scott, ex-tutor, and now friend to both of them. It’s true there
were dark storm clouds, heavy, black, and pendulous, towards which they were driving. It’s true, also, that
the spare tire they were carrying was badly in need of some air, but, uh, they were being normal kids and,
on a night out… well, they were not going to let a storm spoil the events of their evening, were they…? On
a night out… it was a night out they were going to remember… for a very long time.
Janet: Gosh, that’s the third motorcycle that’s passed us. They sure do take their lives in their hands,
what with the weather and all.
Brad: Hmmm… we must have taken the wrong fork a few miles back.
Brad: We must have a blowout. DAMMIT! I knew I should’ve gotten that spare tire fixed. Well, you just
stay here, keep warm and I’ll go for help.
Brad: Didn’t we pass a castle back down the road a few miles back? Maybe they have a telephone I could
use.
Janet: I’m coming with you! Besides, darling, the owner of that phone might be a beautiful woman, and
you might never come back again.
Janet: In the velvet darkness, of the blackest night, burning bright, there’s a guiding star. No matter what
or who you are.
Brad & Janet: There's a light, light in the darkness of everybody's life.
Riff Raff: The darkness must go down the river of night's dreaming. Flow morphia slow, let the sun and
light come streaming Into my life. Into my life...
Brad: I can see the flag fly I can see the rain Just the same, there has got to be Something better here
for you and me.
Narrator: And so, it seemed that fortune had smiled on Brad and Janet and that they had found the
assistance that their plight required. ...Or had they?
Brad: Hi! My name is Brad Majors, and this is my fiancee, Janet Weiss. I wonder if you could help us.
You see, our car broke down a few miles up the road... do you have a phone we might use?
Brad: Yes.
Riff Raff: Yes... I think perhaps you better both come inside.
Janet: You're too kind. Oh Brad, I'm frightened. What kind of a place is this?
Brad: Oh, it's probably some kind of hunting lodge for rich weirdos.
Janet: Oh.
Riff Raff: You've arrived on a rather special night. It's one of the master's affairs.
Janet: Oh, lucky him.
Magenta: You're lucky, he's lucky, I'm lucky, we're all lucky! ha ha ha...
Riff Raff: It's astounding; time is fleeting; madness takes its toll. But listen closely…
Riff Raff: I've got to keep control. I remember doing the time-warp Drinking those moments when The
blackness would hit me
All: You bring your knees in tight. But it's the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insane.
Brad: They're probably foreigners with ways different than our own. They
may do some more... folk dancing.
Janet: Look, I'm cold, I'm wet, and I'm just plain scared!
SWEET TRANSVESTITE
Janet: Right.
Frank: Well you got caught with a flat, well, how 'bout that?
Well, babies, don't you panic.
By the light of the night it'll all seem alright.
I'll get you a satanic mechanic.
Columbia: Bite.
Brad: It's all right Janet. We'll play along for now and pull out the
aces when the time is right.
Brad: Hi, my name is Brad Majors, and this is my fiancee, Janet Weiss;
ah.. you are...?
Riff Raff: Come along - the master doesn't like to be kept waiting.
Riff Raff: The master is not yet married, nor do I think he ever will be. We
are simply his servants.
Janet: Oh.
Janet: Weiss.
Frank: Enchante.
Frank: Well! How nice. And what charming underclothes you both have.
But here. Put these on. They'll make you feel less... vulnerable.
It's not often we receive visitors here, let alone offer them...
hospitality.
Brad: Ungrateful!
Frank: How forceful you are, Brad. Such a perfect specimen of manhood.
So... dominant. You must be awfully proud of him, Janet.
Janet: No.
Frank: ..and that's how I discovered the secret, that elusive ingredient,
that SPARK that is the breath of life... Yes, I have that
knowledge... I hold the secret... to life... itself!
You see, you are fortunate for tonight is the night that my
beautiful creature is destined to be BORN! Hoopla! ...throw open
the switches on the sonic oscillator... and step the reactor power
input THREE MORE POINTS!
Rocky: Oh ho no no
Rocky: Oh ho no no
Rocky: Oh ho no no
Rocky: And I've got the feeling someone's going to be cutting the thread.
Rocky: Oh no no no.
Frank: Well really. That's no way to behave on your first day out.
Frank: Yes.
Frank: Yes.
Frank: O.K.? O.K.?!? I think we can do better than that. Humph! Well,
Brad and Janet, what do you think of him?
Frank: I didn't make him FOR YOU! He carries the Charles Atlas seal of
approval.
Frank: He'll eat nutritious high protein. And swallow raw eggs...
Try to build up his shoulders, his chest, arms, and... legs.
Such an effort if he only knew of my plan.
In just seven days...
Frank: He'll do press-ups, and chin-ups, do the snatch, clean and jerk.
He thinks dynamic tension must be hard work.
Such strenuous living I just don't understand,
When in just seven days, oh baby, ...I can make you a man.
Columbia: Eddie!
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n roll.
etc.
Frank: One from the vaults. Oh baby!.. Don't be upset... It was a mercy
killing... he had a certain naive charm, but no muscle... Oh!
Frank & Transylvanians: In just seven days I can make you a man.
Narrator: There are those who say that life is an illusion, and that reality is but a figment of the
imagination. If this is so, then Brad and Janet are quite safe, ... however, the sudden departure of their
host...and his creation...into the seclusion of his sombre bridal suite had left them feeling both
apprehensive and uneasy, a feeling which grew as the other guests departed, and they were shown to
their separate rooms.
Janet: Oh, Brad darling, come in. Oh! Brad Oh... Yes, my darling...but
what if...
Janet: Oh, you beast, you monster...Oh what have you done with Brad?
Frank: Shhh. Brad's probably asleep by now. Do you want him to see you
like...This!
Frank (Janet): Oh, Brad darling, it's no good here. It'll destroy us.
Brad: Don't worry Janet, we'll be away from here in the morning.
Brad: YOU!
Frank: Oh Yes yes, I know...but it isn't all bad, is it? Not even half
bad, I think you really quite enjoyed it.
Frank: Shhh! Janet's probably asleep by now, do you want her to see you...
like this!
Brad: Like this, like how? It's your fault, you're to blame, I thought it
was the real thing!
Frank: Oh come on, Brad, admit it, you liked it, didn't you? There's no
crime in giving yourself over to pleasure, Brad. Oh Brad, you've
wasted so much time already...Janet needn't know, I won't tell.
Riff Raff: Master, Rocky has broken his chains and vanished. The new playmate
is loose and somewhere on the grounds. Magenta has just released..
the dogs.
Janet: What's happening here? Where's Brad? Where's anybody? Oh, Brad.
Brad, my darling, how could I have done this to you? Oh, if only
we hadn't made this journey... if only the car hadn't broken
down... oh, if only we were amongst friends... Or sane persons, Oh
Brad, what have they done with him... Oh, Brad, Oh Brad-How could
you?
Janet: Oh, but you're hurt...Did they do this to you? Here, I'll dress
your wounds... baby there...
Narrator: Emotion, agitation or disturbance of the mind...Vehement or excited mental state. It is also a
powerful and irrational master...and from what Magenta and Columbia eagerly viewed on their television
monitor there seemed little doubt that Janet was, indeed, ... its slave.
Magenta: Uh huh.
Janet: And that's just one small fraction of the main attraction
You need a friendly hand and I need action.
Frank: I see. So this wasn't simply a chance meeting. You came here with
a purpose.
Brad: I told you, my car broke down. I was telling the truth.
Frank: I know what you told me...but this Dr. Everett Scott, his name is
not unknown to me.
Frank: And now he works for your government, doesn't he, Brad? He's
attached to the bureau of investigation of that which you call
UFO's! Isn't that right, Brad?
Frank: He'll probably be... in the Zen room. Shall we inquire of him in
person?
Frank: Don't play games, Dr. Scott. You know perfectly well what Brad
Majors is doing here. It was part of your plan, was it not? That
he and his female should check the layout for you. Well,
unfortunately for you, all the plans are to be changed. I am
adaptable, Dr. Scott; I know Brad is.
Dr. Scott: I can assure you that Brad's presence here comes as a complete
surprise to me. I came here to find Eddie.
Dr. Scott: I happen to know a great deal about a lot of things. You see Eddie
happens to be my nephew.
Janet: Ah!
Brad: Janet!
Janet: Brad!
Frank: Rocky!
Brad: Janet!
Janet: Brad!
Frank: Rocky!
Brad: Janet!
Janet: Brad!
Frank: Rocky!
Frank: And Rocky. Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you! Happy
Birthday dear Rocky... Shall we?
Columbia: Eddie?!
Dr. Scott: I knew he was in with a bad crowd, but it was worse than I
imagined...Aliens!
Rocky: Ugh?!
EDDIE
WISE UP
Scott: You won't find Earth people quite the easy mark you imagine. This
sonic transducer...it is, I suppose, some kind of audio-vibrato-
physio-molecular transport device?
Janet: Stop!
Brad: You're a hot dog, but you better not try to hurt her, Frank Furter.
Scott: You're a hot dog, but you'd better not try to hurt her, Frank
Furter.
Columbia: My God! I can't stand any more of this! First you spurn me for
Eddie, and then you throw him off like an old overcoat for Rocky!
You chew people up and then you spit them out again...I loved
you..do you hear me? I loved you! And what did it get me? Yeah,
I'll tell you: a big nothing. You're like a sponge. You take, take,
take, and drain others of their love and emotion. Yeah, well, I've
had enough. You're gonna choose between me and Rocky, so named
because of the rocks in his head.
Frank: It's not easy having a good time... even smiling makes my face
ache... and my children turn on me...Rocky's behaving just the way
that Eddie did. Do you think I made a mistake, splitting his brain
between the two of them?
Frank: Magenta, I am indeed grateful to both you and your brother Riff
Raff. You have both served me well. Loyalty such as yours shall
not go unrewarded. You will discover that when the mood takes me,
I can be quite generous.
Frank: And you shall receive it...in abundance! Come, we are ready for
the floor show!
A. FLOOR SHOW
B. FANFARE/DON'T DREAM IT
Scott: Ach! We've got to get out of this trap before this decadence saps
our wills. I've got to be strong, and try to hang on, or else my
mind may well snap, and my life will be lived... for the thrills!
Frank: My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my...my!
I'm a wild and an untamed thing.
I'm a bee with a deadly sting.
You get a hit and your mind goes ping.
Your heart'll thump and your blood will sing.
So let the party and the sounds rock on.
We're gonna shake it 'till the life has gone.
Rose tint my world, keep me safe from my trouble and pain.
All: Goodbye...
All: ...feeling...
All: ...wheeling...
All: ...dealing...
Riff Raff: And also presumptuous of you. You see, when I said WE were to
return to Transylvania, I referred only to Magenta and myself. I'm
sorry, however, if you found my words misleading, but you see, you
are to remain here, in spirit, anyway.
Riff Raff: Yes, Dr. Scott. A laser capable of emitting a beam of pure anti-
matter.
Riff Raff: Exactly, Dr. Scott. And now, Frank N Furter, your time has come.
Say goodbye to all of this, and hello... to oblivion!
Scott: Eddie? Yes, well, perhaps it was all for the best, heh, heh, heh.
Riff: You should leave now, Dr. Scott, while it is still possible. We
are about to beam the entire house to the planet Transsexual, in
the galaxy of Transylvania. Go... Now! Our noble mission is
completed, my most beautiful sister, and soon we shall return to
the moon-drenched shores of our beloved planet.
Magenta: Ah, sweet Transsexual, land of night. To sing and dance once more
to your dark refrain... To take that - step, to the right...
Both: HAH!!
SUPER HEROES
All: Bleeding...
All: Feeding...
Ahh, ahh...
All: Meaning.
