ZAPHOD    Get in the escape capsules!

F/X    CHASE: FEET DOWN METAL CORRIDORS FOLLOWED BY BEAST SCREECH, AND GENERALLY KNOCKING FURNITURE OVER AND EATING IT

FORD    Right, Arthur and I’ll take this one! Zaphod you and the others take the left-hand one! 
((note: radio edit removes opening "right", and gives it to Zaphod as a response to this line))

F/X    HATCHWAY OPENS. SCUFFLES AS ARTHUR AND FORD GET IN, THE BEAST'S SCREECHES ARE MUFFLED

FORD    Press the go-stud Arthur. 

F/X    DULL DETONATIONS AS CAPSULE BLASTS OFF FROM THE SHIP, AND THE WHOOSH OF IT ESCAPING

ARTHUR    Wheew! ('''Double take''') Hey, Ford, look. The other capsule’s missing. The shute’s empty, someone else must
    have used that capsule ... the others are trapped! 

FORD    It's too late Arthur, we can’t help them. This capsule won’t turn back.

ARTHUR    What happens if I press this button here?

FORD    Don’t!

F/X    A REALLY SMASHING SUPER SOUND OF THE CAPSULE MAKING A HYPERSPACE JUMP

NARRATOR    Fortunately for Ford Prefect and Arthur Dent their capsule was fitted with latest in instant space travel,
    the Phargilor Kangaroo Relocation Drive, by which a ship may be ejected suddenly through the fabric of the
    space time continuum and come to rest far from its starting point. This is however an emergency device and there
    is rarely time to plot where the ship will land. Meanwhile, this is what happened to Zaphod, Trillian, and Marvin...

F/X    BUGBLATTER SCREECH

TRILLIAN    ('''Screams''') Look out!

F/X    HUGE ARM SWEEPS DOWN AND PICKS THEM UP, THE MONSTER ROLLS HIS EYES WHICH TURN RED, GREEN, THEN A SORT OF MAUVY PINK.
    IT RUNS ITS TONGUE ROUND ITS LIPS, BLINKS A COUPLE OF TIMES AND THEN MENTALLY REGISTERS THAT IT HAS JUST REMEMBERED WHAT
    10 ACROSS IN THE GALACTIC TIMES CROSSWORD WAS TODAY, MAKES A MENTAL NOTE TO WRITE IT IN WHEN IT'S NEXT GOT A COUPLE OF MINUTES

CAST    (Shouts, etc...)

MARVIN    (Resigned) Ouch... Oh dear, oh dear... My arm’s come off.

TRILLIAN    Arrrgghh, he’s got us! If ever I survive this I’ll get a job as Moby Dick’s dentist

ZAPHOD    Can it Trillian, I’m trying to die with dignity!

MARVIN    I’m just trying to die.

ZAPHOD    No problem! Pas de problème!

MARVIN    Ah... the ennui is overpowering.

F/X    BUG BLATTER BEAST SWALLOWS THEM WHOLE. SOUNDS OF HUGE CAVERNOUS THROAT WITH SLIMY SLOPPING AND GURGLING

NARRATOR    And this is what happened to Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect.

F/X    REVERSE OF HYPERSPACE EFFECT. LOUD CLANG
