Start of segment timecheck: 11:00

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

ARTHUR    Are we back in normal space?

FORD    No. I think we’ve actually materialised inside another spaceship.

ARTHUR    More problems.

FORD    We'll, we’ll see. Checks... at atmosphere OK, let’s get out and have a look...

F/X    OPENING OF CAPSULE: THEY GET OUT


ARTHUR    Ford?

FORD    Yeah?

ARTHUR    Look, what about the others?

FORD    Arthur, you’ll have to learn, it’s a convention in all space-travelling species
        that if have to ditch someone... you know, a friend... and there’s nothing you can do.
        You just let it be. You don’t talk about them, OK?

ARTHUR    What... really?

FORD    And then we get blind drunk about them later.

ARTHUR    I think there must be something terribly wrong with the universe you know.

FORD    I think there must be something terribly wrong with this ship!

ARTHUR    Yes, it looks like a mausoleum.

FORD    Hey, you’re right... The place is full of sarcophagi as far as the eye can see. Wild!

ARTHUR    What’s so great about dead people?

FORD    I don’t know, let’s have a look. Here, there’s a plaque on this one...

ARTHUR    What does it say?

FORD    Golgafrincham Ark Fleet, Ship B, Hold Seven, Telephone Sanitizer, Second Class, and a serial number.

ARTHUR    Telephone Sanitizer? A dead telephone sanitizer?

FORD    Best kind.

ARTHUR    Well what’s he doing here?

FORD    Not a lot.

ARTHUR    No, but I mean why... Good god, this one’s a dead hairdresser.

FORD    And this one's an advertising account executive.

ARTHUR    Are these really coffins? They’re terribly cold.

F/X    SUDDEN ZAP

NUMBER TWO     (Very sudden, very loud, very Germanic and Military) All right! Hold it right there!

FORD    Hello?

ARTHUR    Why isn’t anyone ever pleased to see us?

(FADE)
