(spoken by Charles Burns, who's playing several different characters)
Tony: Hey, Mister, no, up here ... what'cha digging for?
Worker: Ah, it's a secret, kid. But, I guess I can tell you. We're diggin' for buried treasure
Tony: Wow, really? How'd it get in Mr. Pinkster's back yard?
Worker: Eh, it was put there by monsters. Yeah, this is monster treasure
Tony: Cool, hey! My dad's got a shovel, can I help too?
Worker: Eh, sorry kid, I don't think so
Mr. Pinkster: Okay, Tony, leave these men alone. They have work to do
Tony: But ... but I wanna help find monster treasure. Can I, Mr. Pinkster, can I please?
Mr. Pinkster: Don't gimme any of your backtalk young man, just climb down from there and let those men get back to work
Tony: Your name isn't Mr. Pinkster, it's Mr. Stinkster
Narrator: Later, at Tony's house ...
Mom: I don't wanna hear another word out of you, just close your mouth and go to sleep
Tony: Okay, g'night, mom
Narrator: Thirty seconds later ...
Tony: Wow, I wonder what kind of treasure monsters would bury. I wish I could ... hey, I just saw something moving down there. Geez, it looks like one of those monsters. Mom, Dad, come quick, it's a monster!
Mom: Alright, Tony, what is it this time?
Tony: Ah, there are monsters in Mr. Pinkster's back yard, I'm not kidding
Mom: There's nothing down there but a hole
Dad: I think you've been watching a few too many spook shows for your own good
Tony: But it really was there Dad, really
Dad: Uh, do you want me to plug in your nightlight?
Tony: Ah, Dad, that's baby stuff!
Narrator: One hour later ...
Tony: There it is again. But, but it's carrying something. Looks like a man ... oh, no, now it's crawling back in the hole. Oh, no, Mom!
Mom: I'm losing my patience with you, young man, if you don't ...
Tony: Mom, could you plug in my nightlight? I promise I'll be good and go to sleep
