That little car isn’t big enough to hold many costumes.
PECOS PETE
I got dese old trailer …
IRVING
Wait! I have another idea - a mighty, majestic idea of overpowering greatness. We’ll attach the trailer to the car and fill the trailer with grasshopper costumes. Then we’ll paint a sign on the side of the trailer. It will be … it will say …. “BE A HOPPER - GRASSHOPPER COSTUME SALES COMPANY”
PECOS PETE
But durn it, ya’ll’re grasshoppers! Y’all cain’t go drivin’ down no goldurn highway pretty as you please.
IRVING
Certainly we can! We’ll just pretend we’re people-creatures wearing grasshopper costumes.
DUFFY
Come on, Farmer Gray; let’s get your trailer. The rest of you start bringing up the costumes. And Irving, standby. You’re going to have the world’s shortest driving lesson.
ZED
I want to vote.
PECOS PETE and DUFFY jump back into the Volkswagen and roar off toward PECOS PETE’s place. The rest of the GRASSHOPPERS run/hop back to the hole in the hill.
Fade.
ACT TWO
Fade in on: The Volkswagen is parked by the campsite with the trailer hooked on behind it. The trailer has been painted with a bright, colorful sign that says: “BE A HOPPER – GRASSHOPPER COSTUME SALES COMPANY.” On the door of the Volkswagen is a picture of a grinning grasshopper, and on the hood is a reclining female grasshopper with very humanoid features, scantily clad, shapely legs, exaggerated bosom, long flowing blonde/green hair. PECOS PETE and the GRASSHOPPERS are gathered around the Volkswagen.
