Seth. I know you're wondering what's going on. This is a Fly intervention.  You know that everyone here cares a lot about you. All of us have been having some conversations over the last few weeks because we are all worried about certain things that have been happening to you. Please don't feel we are judging you! All we ask that you listen to what we have to say. We would really appreciate that!

Seth, I’m here to assist Jeff in leading this intervention. You see when I made The Fly it was to entertain people.  I only became aware of its addictive properties a few years ago. I’ve seen many lives ruined…including my own. You don’t have to confront your problem alone.

Who the fuck are you. You look like that chick from Melrose Place, the one who shot the father of her child when he was selling coke on the boat. And then you had to give the baby up for adoption which was good cause I mean introducing a baby on show catering to the 18-24 demographic just isn’t smart programming.

Jesus fucking Christ. Why do people keep saying that. It’s all I’ve ever heard since 8th grade. He wasn’t gay, he was campy, before the queers ripped off camp. Fops like the ladies. It was the fifties, okay it was camp, people didn’t flaunt there sexual proclivities all over the place they kept it a secret most homos back then carried on perfectly normal lives, they had jobs, they had wives, many even had kids(realization)...shut your face Zuniga.

Couple watching The Fly.

SETH

Yes, yes… NO! Don’t go in there! That’s the Fly. God dammit! (beat.) It just keeps getting better and better. (film reference) It’s just so good.

NANCY

I know. It was great yesterday, and the day before that, and on your birthday, and mine, and my sisters wedding, and at your uncles wake…

SETH

(Dreamily) Yeah…and at the midnight showing, where we met!

NANCY

Yes, Seth, I remember. The Fly was once just your favorite movie, and now it’s defined our relationship!

SETH

Boy Nancy, If I knew you were gonna try and shoot me down I would have dated Gena Davis.

NANCY

You are dating Gena Davis! I found this under the mattress. (Magazine with Gena Davis on cover). The pages are all stuck together!

SETH

I spilled my pine colada on it.

NANCY

Our anniversary picture. You pasted her face on my body.

SETH

Oh, come on. You said yourself it was a bad hair day.

NANCY

You called out her name when we were making love

SETH

(on making) God dammit Gina!

JUILA

You have a serious problem.

Opens the door, enter JEFF GOLDBLUM.

JEFF GOLDBLUM

Hi, I’m Jeff Goldblum. I’m- (Seth starts jumping around. )

SETH

Holy shit.

JEFF GOLDBLUM

Well,

(NANCY MOUTHS SETH)

Seth. I know you're wondering what's going on. This is a Fly intervention. You know that everyone here cares a lot about you. All of us have been having some conversations over the last few weeks because we are all worried about certain things that have been happening to you. Please don't feel we are judging you! All we ask that you listen to what we have to say. We would really appreciate that!

SETH

You’re an actor aren't you? Why didn’t you memorize your lines? No one memorizes lines better than you. Besides it’s the Fly is the best movie ever made!

JEFF GOLDBLUM

And I’ll be the last person to argue with you. However, this world has so much more to offer you! Other movies! Jurassic Park, Igby Goes Down, Independence Day…

NANCY

Don’t get him stuck on another movie…

enter DAVID CRONENBERG

DAVID CRONENBERG

…Friday the 13th, History of Violence, the first Crash. Sorry I’m late. (to SETH) Hi, I’m David Cronenburg.

SETH

I know who you are. (cronenberg riff) body horror genre

Reaches out his palm.

DAVID CRONENBERG

Look (JEFF WHISPERS TO DAVID "SETH") Seth, I’m here to assist Jeff in leading this intervention. You see when I made The Fly it was to entertain people. I only became aware of its addictive properties a few years ago. I’ve seen many lives ruined…including my own. You don’t have to confront your problem alone.

SETH

I don’t have a problem!

NANCY starts to cry. She’s ignored.

DAVID CRONENBERG

The truth of the matter is that I made The Fly when I needed money in order to make Naked Lunch. Now that’s a movie to be obsessed with! It’s truly the superior film.

SETH

(Naked Lunch riff) Peter Weller just doesn’t do it for me. No offense Jeff, I know you play keys in a jazz orchestra with him.

JEFF GOLDBLUM

The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra. That’s very impressive that you know that.

DAPHNE ZUNIGA enters.

DAPHNE ZUNIGA

Hi I’m Daphne Zuniga. 

                               ALL

Get out!!! 

               DAPHNE EXITS               



                               SETH(TO NANCY)

The Fly II ?! 

                               NANCY

I will not have Gina Davis in this house! Besides, we couldn't afford her. And ah(discretely points to Golblum).

JEFF GOLDBLUM

Wow, doughnuts!

(JEFF GOLDBLUM spits on doughnut and sucks it up ala Brundle Fly)

SETH

Cool… you really are the Fly!

DAVID CRONENBURG

No that’s just how Jeff Goldblum eats.


NANCY

Throws a chair. ENOUGH! The three of you are here to help with SETH’s intervention! But you are just enabling his addiction! He needs help!

Door slammed open. VINCENT PRICE, JR. walks in workman/muscle clothes

VINCENT PRICE, JR.

Hi, I’m Vincent Price, Jr.!

JEFF and DAVID groan. SETH and NANCY are baffled.

Maybe you didn’t hear me. I’m Vincent Price Jr. You might remember the original fly, my father filmed in 1958. A film which you David Cronenberg attempted to remake but destroyed. Mr. Cronenberg you and your shameless Hollywood knock off besmirched my family name

SETH

VINCENT PRICE, JR. Look! My dad was not gay! He was, what you call flamboyant, y'know, campy. 

                               SETH

Jeff Goldblum, David Cronenberg, Vincent Price Jr., Daphne "The Fly II" Zenuga?

DAPHNE ENTERS 

                               DAPHNE

Did someone call me? 

                               ALL

Get out! 

                               SETH

Man, this intervention sucks I’m watching the fly.
