-	( READING FROM CARD NANCY MOUTHS “SETH TO JEFF”)	+
-	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, 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	+	DAVID CRONENBERG<br>
-	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…	+	Hi, I'm David Cronenberg.
-	NANCY	+	SETH<br>
-	Don’t get him stuck on another movie…	+	Oh my God! David Cronenberg (CRONENBERG RIFF) body horror genre. [REACHES OUT HIS PALM.]
-	DAVID CRONENBURG enters.	+	DAVID CRONENBERG<br>
		+	Look (JEFF WHISPERS TO DAVID "SETH") Seth, The Fly is just supposed to be entertainment, not life ...
-	DAVID CRONENBERG	+	NANCY<br>
-	…Friday the 13th, History of Violence, the first Crash. Sorry I’m late.  (to SETH)  Hi, I’m David Cronenburg.	+	Yes! Yes! It’s just a movie!
-	SETH	+	DAVID CRONENBERG<br>
-	I know who you are. (cronenberg riff) body horror genre	+	… as opposed to Police Academy 3, which I watch literally all day…
-	Reaches out his palm.	+	NANCY<br>
		+	No, you’re making things worse!
-	DAVID CRONENBERG	+	DAVID CRONENBERG<br>
-	Look	+	Not Police Academy 4, of course, which was an abomination!
-	(JEFF WHISPERS 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	+	JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
-	I don’t have a problem!	+	Wow, doughnuts!
-	NANCY starts to cry.  She’s ignored.	+	DAPHNE ZUNIGA ENTERS.
-	DAVID CRONENBERG	+	DAPHNE ZUNIGA<br>
-	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.	+	Hi I’m Daphne Zuniga, the actress who replaced Gena Davis in “The Fly II.”
-	SETH	+	ALL<br>
-	(Naked Lunch riff) Peter Weller just doesn’t do it for me.  No offense Jeff, I know you play keys in a jazz orchestra together.	+	Get out!!!
-	JEFF GOLDBLUM	+	DAPHNE EXITS
-	The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra.  That’s very impressive that you know that.	+
-	DAPHNE ZUNIGA enters.	+	SETH(TO NANCY) <br>
		+	Why did you invite Daphne Zuniga?
-	DAPHNE ZUNIGA	+	NANCY<br>
-	Hi I’m Daphne Zuniga. Sorry I’m late. (prepared intervention speech)	+	I didn’t! She just wanders from house to house. That’s what happens to people who get lost in movies. Look! These are the pathetic people you're obsessed with!
-	SETH	+	JEFF GOLDBLUM SPITS ON DOUGHNUT AND SUCKS IT UP LIKE A BRUNDLE FLY.
-	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.	+
-	JEFF GOLDBLUM	+	SETH<br>
-	Wow, doughnuts!	+	Cool… you really are The Fly!
-	DAPHNE ZUNIGA	+	DAVID CRONENBURG<br>
-	Yeah, they let me take them from work.	+	No, that’s just how Jeff Goldblum eats.
-	DAVID CRONENBERG	+	NANCY<br>
-	Hey everybody Daphne got a job.	+	ENOUGH! You people have even more movie sickness than everyone else. Where's the voice of sanity?!
-	JEFF GOLDBLUM spits on doughnut and sucks it up ala Brundle Fly.	+	DOOR SLAMS OPEN. VINCENT PRICE, JR. WALKS IN WORKMAN/MUSCLE CLOTHES.
-	SETH	+	VINCENT PRICE, JR.<br>
-	Cool… you really are the Fly!	+	Hi, I’m Vincent Price, Jr.! [PAUSE. EVERYONE LOOKS BAFFLED.] Maybe you didn’t hear me. I’m Vincent Price Jr.! … My father made the original “Fly” in 1958. I grew up with movies, and I’ve seen the lives they’ve destroyed. [INDICATING NANCY] This woman is right. You’ve got to turn your back on the movies and look at your real life! Beware! Beware!!!!
-	DAVID CRONENBERG	+	PAUSE
-	No that’s just how Jeff Goldblum eats.	+
-	DAPHNE ZUNIGA	+	SETH<br>
-	Yeah, you should see him eat an artichoke. Somehow it becomes babuska!	+	Are you really Vincent Price, Jr.? I mean, you're ... wasn’t your dad, uh …?
-	NANCY	+	VINCENT PRICE, JR.<br>
-	Throws a chair.	+	Look, my dad was not gay! I am tired of people asking me that. He was, what you call flamboyant, y'know, campy.
-	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	+	JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
		+	Well, campy is gay.
-	VINCENT PRICE, JR.	+	VINCENT PRICE, JR.<br>

-	JEFF, DAVID, and DAPHNE all groan. SETH and NANCY are baffled.	+	JEFF GOLDBLUM<br>
		+	There was no time before gays. We’ve always had gays.
-	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	+	NANCY<br>

-	DAPHNE ZUNIGA	+	NANCY<br>
-	Dude, he was gay.	+	No!
-	DAVID CRONENBERG	+	SETH<br>
-	Shut up! This is why no one will hire you.	+	Yes. I can feel it happening -- spreading thrugh my veins. When next you see me, I will have become ... Daphne Zuniga.

-	He was gay. Believe me I know.	+	Did someone call me?
-		+
-	VINCENT PRICE, JR.	+
-	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.	+
