The following is an unfinished transcript of my favorite MST3K episode,
MITCHELL, starring Joe Don Baker. I haven't worked on it for a couple years,
but someday I'll get back to it and complete the whole thing...

MITCHELL
transcribed by Steve Horton
June - July, 1997

JOEL: Hi everybody, welcome to the Satellite of Love, I'm Joel Robinson... oh, look, here comes Tom Servo, Crow T. Robot.
CROW: Hello.
TOM: Evening.
JOEL: Hey, come on up here you guys, I wanna show you this toothpick sculpture I've been working on for the last three years.
TOM: You've been working three years on THAT?
JOEL: Well, yeah, nights, 'n weekends...
CROW: ..not very good...
TOM: Shh!
CROW: I mean, uh, what is it?
JOEL: It's a scale reproduction model of Monticello rendered in toothpick! I got the idea off the nickel, see?
TOM: It's beautiful... where'd you get all the toothpicks?
JOEL: What, are you kidding? We're on a spaceship, this place is crawling with toothpicks.
CROW: Uh, well, it really is cool, Joel... of course, you realize we'll have to break it.
TOM: It's nothing personal, you understand, it's just a thing...we...have...to do.
JOEL: Okay.
CROW and TOM: Huhhh?
JOEL: Sure, go ahead, that's why I made it, smash away.
CROW: Awwww....
TOM: No, no, no, Joel, you're ruining it for me!
[TOM leaves]
CROW: Yeah, I feel dirty.
[CROW leaves]
MAGIC VOICE: Commercial sign in five seconds.
JOEL: Sure seems like a waste, it being all toothpicky and fragile and all.
MAGIC VOICE: Commercial sign now.
[commercial sign button flashes]
JOEL: I'm just gonna leave it here, unattended, to dry... ah, we'll be right back.
[TOM and CROW scream as they ENTER and attack sculpture.]

JOEL: So how was it for you?
TOM: Well, as far as breakin' stuff goes, it was good, but not great.
CROW: Yeah, not as good as that ceramic bell collection.
JOEL: Oh, Mellevitz and associates are calling.
[JOEL presses mad scientist call button]

MIKE: Okay, and this?
FRANK: Oh, let me see... oh, heh heh heh! That's my old head! Heh hmm hmm! Just file it under Frank's First Head, okay?
MIKE: Right.
FRANK: Oh, hi, Joel... look, we're way too busy to even do an invention this week. [whispered] We're being audited. [normal voice] You go right ahead, though.

[JOEL swings zebra-striped stool into view.]
CROW: It's a Daktari Stool!
[CROW and TOM giggle]
JOEL: What do you think, sirs?

FRANK: Daktari Stool?... whatever. Anyway, Joel, it's a madhouse down here. Uh, we're being audited by the fraternal order of mad science, you know, one of those 'Are You Really Mad Enough' sort of things...
MIKE: Frank??
FRANK: What?
MIKE: Three Jarevic-Sevens. (????)
FRANK: Put 'em in the junk drawer! Jeez, didn't the temp agency test you on any of this stuff??
MIKE: Well, I'm a little off my game! I'm not normally required to wear a [CLANK] leg iron like this! Say, what is the deal with this guy and those cute robots?
FRANK: Listen, mister four-dollars-and-twenty-five-cents-an-hour! You stick with the boxes, and I'll handle the experiment, is that all right with you??
DR. F: Frank, can I see you a minute?
FRANK: Sure thing, Doctor F! [low voice] Say, Steve, this temp stuff is working out great, don't you think?
DR. F: We'll I'm sure glad your friend is working out so nicely, Frank. [loud voice] Now what about sending Joel the movie, ya boob!
FRANK: Oh, the movie, the movie, the movie... [checks pockets]
DR. F: Oh, for the love of ...
[FRANK and DR. F search through box, tossing stuff out]
DR. F: Oh, Frank, look, remember? The double-butt graft. My science project from Evil Oh's(?). I grafted the butt of a dog onto the butt of a cat. Sure, they all laughed...
FRANK: Doctor F, the movie!
DR. F: Oh, right, uhhhh... [MIKE hands him the movie]...here it is. Mitchell, starring Joe Don Baker.
MIKE: You guys watch Joe Don Baker movies?
FRANK: Oh, look, just get back to work, Temp-Boy!
DR. F: Well, here it comes Joel... MITCHELL! It's a super secret spy, has a motorcycle, marooned in space, meets Hercules...or not...uhhhh...watch it and weep, Joel Prole Mole! Send him the movie, Frank. [FRANK waves MIKE away frantically] ...the movie??
[FRANK sends JOEL the movie]

JOEL: I like the way you used...[garbled]
JOEL, TOM, AND CROW: Movie sign, oh, we've got movie sign! [JOEL tosses the Daktari Stool in the air]

[JOEL, TOM and CROW enter theater]
[screen says AN ESSEX ENTERPRISES LTD production]
CROW: Hey, look, a sex film!
[title scrolls across screen, Terminator style]
TOM: Mittens? There's an action film called Mittens?
CROW: Joe Don Baker _is_ Mittens! He's a cop!
TOM: Mithril? Oh, wait, it's Mitchell!
CROW: Oh, the Martha Mitchell story!
TOM: Joe Don Baker _is_ Martha Mitchell!
[screen fades into blurry picture of Mitchell]
CROW: It's Bigfoot!
TOM: Who's the puffy guy who's the big leery sex machine?
CROW and JOEL: Mitchell!
TOM: That Mitchell is one faaaaat...
CROW: Shut yo' mouth!
TOM: Just talkin' bout Mitchell!
CROW: Looks like Grendel!
JOEL: Hey, Linda Evans, that was her Pre-Yanni days.
TOM: Before her face was pulled taut.
JOEL: Looks kinda like a slow-motion sneeze...?
CROW: [looking at credits] Yeah, here's your loser actor bouquet!
TOM: Any movie with wocka-chi-wocka in it is okay by me.
[CROW and JOEL say "wocka-chicka-wocka" like a 70's guitar in the background]
TOM: [singing] It was the third of September! A day I'll always remember!
CROW: Never corner a Mitchell! See how he reacts?
JOEL: Looks like he's doing a Nixon, or...
TOM: Looks like a middle aged Chucky.
CROW: Looks like the Wrathful Buddha.
TOM: Looks like the Moon in _A Trip to the Moon._
JOEL: [as Mitchell] Man, I can't get my arms down.
CROW: Now he looks like a smallmouth bass!
TOM: Heh...now he looks like he's in a wind tunnel!
JOEL: Ummm...maybe he's doing Tai Chi or something.
CROW: Mitchell's on a corner!
[screen goes black]

CROW: [50's game show host voice] Mitchell, will you stand up, please.
JOEL: [singing] The lunatic is on the grass...
[someone climbs over a fence]
TOM: Johnny Nash breaks into a suburban home.
CROW: Mitchell.
JOEL: Hey, it's one of the kinds from Fame!
TOM: Which one?

my fingers still.
CROW: Must be a faculty meeting.
DEANY: Shut up. I'm thinking.

SCENE 3

JOEL: Uh, it's open!
CROW: Looks like he's breaking out of his house.

CROW: Should I tell her?
DEANY: Ladies, you know where everything is! I want you to exercise the bottomless limits of your imagination. Surprise me! The way you always do. Come on, Don, let's get some juice.
JOEL: Heh... I might be able to kiss her tonight, you know.
BLONDE WOMAN: What the hell does he think I am, an acrobat?
CROW: And, she's an acrobat, Ted!
[DEANY and DON stop suddenly. DEANY sees a flashlight in the next room.]
TOM: Santa??
JOEL: Wait a minute, I think maybe the Snoop Sisters are in there!
CROW: Ah, I'm gonna get a series before Stuart Margelin.
[scene reveals Johnny Mathis character]
TOM: Johnny Mathis! All right, get my gun!
JOEL: Oh, you know, it's not often you see Johnny Mathis in the wild.
TOM: Let's see, some clean underwear...
CROW: See, a Gunderoo!
[JOHN takes gun out of top drawer]
JOEL: Pssst! Don't shoot me, the burglar!
[the two women peek out]
CROW: [woman voice] So, are we gonna play Bridge?
DEANY: [whispered] We got another fish to hunt!
DON: [whispered] I'm gonna call the police.
DEANY: [whispered] No, wait!
DON: [whispering something]
DEANY: Shhhh!
[DEANY pushes a button on the wall]
JOEL: Uh, hello, this is Carlton, your doorman?
[wooden door shuts on JOHNNY MATHIS]
CROW: Cedar lattice, works every time.
TOM: [singing in Johnny Mathis voice] Chances are...huh?
[JOHNNY MATHIS looks up]
[JOHNNY MATHIS walks toward doorway with flashlight]
JOEL: If that's John Saxon, I'm dead.
[cut to the two women]
TOM: [women voice] So, are we, like, bait?
[JOHNNY walks up to cedar lattice]
CROW: We're closed!
[JOHNNY runs back]
TOM: Maaaybe I should get back to work.
DEANY: HEY!
JOEL: WHAT?
[JOHNNY MATHIS turns, DEANY fires, JOHNNY falls]
JOEL: OH!
[DEANY smiles through lattice]

SCENE 9:
[police car speeds down same busy street]
TOM: Meanwhile, on an Adam-12 episode, not far away...
[cut to interior of police car, police radio is emitting unintelligible, tinny audio,
MITCHELL is sleeping in the back seat, two policemen are in front]
JOEL: Our hero, ladies and gentleman, right here. [applauds]

[car pulls into driveway]
TOM: Mitchell, honey, we're home, put your shoes on.
POLICEMAN 1: Well, private enterprise beat us to it, huh?
JOEL: Hello, public sector!
PRIVATE POLICEMAN 1: Hey, whaddya say, Jimmy?
POLICEMAN 2: Hey, Tom.
POLICEMAN 1: Where's the body?
PRIVATE POLICEMAN 1: In the den.
TOM: (fruity voice) We posed him.
PRIVATE POLICEMAN 1: You gonna need us around here?
POLICEMAN 1: Nah, that's okay, thanks.
PRIVATE POLICEMAN 1: We'll take off then. He's all yours.
POLICEMAN 1: Sure.
CROW: Aahhh, rent-a-cops, private enterprise...why don't you go back to the mall?!
POLICEMAN 1: Hey, you coming, Mitchell?
MITCHELL: Yeah...
TOM: Got any moist towlettes, rags, toilet papers?
JOEL: C'mon, Mr. "Two Years from Eye Shy," c'mon.
DEANY: I'm Walter Deany, officer, just come this way. Looks like one of those wetbacks...
JOEL, TOM and CROW: HEY!
DEANY: (obscured)...wall, pulled a gun from my gun-rack, fortunately I got to another gun sooner.
JOEL: Huh, smart.
DEANY: He grabbed that Colt. I had no choice, I had to shoot him.
CROW: Well, you're rich and white, I don't see a problem with it.
[they stand over body]
POLICEMAN 2: Pretty clean job.
JOEL: Come on, it's fun!
TOM: [Mitchell voice] You got a sofa I can stretch out on for a little while?
CROW: [Mitchell voice] Oh. There's the body.
JOEL: Hey, here, watch what happens when I step on his abdomen. [makes squishing noise]
[Mitchell whips out small plastic bag]
TOM: I think he's gonna need a bigger body bag than that...
[Mitchell puts gun in bag]
MITCHELL: All those guns loaded?
DEANY: Some of 'em. Not always sure which.
CROW: They're randomly loaded. It's a little game I play.
TOM: All your guests loaded?
[guests leave]
MITCHELL: Your guests are leaving.
DEANY: Party's over.
TOM: [singing] Time to call it a daaaay...
MITCHELL [something] leave?
DEANY: I did.
MITCHELL: There's a police investigation going on here.
JOEL: Oh, there is? I thought there was just a big slob walking around my house.
[Mitchell leaves quickly with gun in bag]
CROW: Where's the john? I'm gonna flush this.
DEANY: One of those guests has to be at his desk at eight in the morning. He's an important person. The secretary will give you their names and addresses.
TOM: And disavow any knowledge of their actions.
[Mitchell pushes button to close gate before guests can leave]
JOEL: Man, he's good.
[Mitchell runs out toward guest's car]
TOM: Mitchell! Pardon me! Mitchell!
[Mitchell bangs on car's window]
CROW: Hey, can I have a scotch?
BRUNETTE WOMAN: What's your name?
MITCHELL: Mitchell.
TOM: Hi!
MITCHELL: What's yours?

Scene 11:
[cut to Deany, talking to someone on red phone]
DEANY: Well find him, wherever he is! And raise Alex, will ya?
JOEL: Look, he's talking to Commissioner Gordon.
DEANY: And get a hold of Mastretta. Tell him to talk to Gelano.

Scene 12:
[Detectives are taping up dead body and taking pictures]
TOM: Okay, sleeve length 34, 36 inch outseam, and a 32 inch inseam!
[policeman comes into view]
CROW: Orson Bean! He's a cop!
[shot of Deany]
TOM: I told Mastretta to talk to Gelano...I think.
[Mitchell loads and unloads gun]

Scene 13:
[inside POLICE CHIEF's office in police station]
POLICE CHIEF: Mitchell?
JOEL: What??
POLICE CHIEF: People don't like you. In fact, I don't care for you myself. Why is that?
CROW: Perhaps our brief, but bitter affair.
POLICE CHIEF: You refuse to sign this report. Why?
JOEL: Duh, I'm still on the first question.
POLICE CHIEF: What kind of policeman are you, anyway? What are you gonna do, file a separate report?
MITCHELL: I don't know.
POLICE CHIEF: What _do_ you know?
TOM: I don't know.
MITCHELL: None of Deany's other guns were loaded. Now, the collection's way up high on the wall. The burglar, he only looks to be about 5-4 is all.
POLICE CHIEF: So, what does that prove?
MITCHELL: If Deany's lying, he's not gonna get away with it.
[police chief gets up]
CROW: Come over there!
POLICE CHIEF: You're gonna get me mad, Mitchell, and when that happens, I wouldn't want to be in your shoes! Now, get out!
MITCHELL: Right.
JOEL: Mitchell's a sensible cop!
POLICE CHIEF: Bead Aldrich. Lieutenant assigned him for you. And remember, don't you dare go near Deany. You forget about him.
[MITCHELL leaves office, camera pans over to booking desk, policeman have a short white man with dark glasses in custody]
TOM: They arrested Harlan Ellison!
JOEL: Good.
[MITCHELL enters another office]
LIEUTENANT: Come in, Mitchell! Take a seat.
CROW: Mom said no, huh? So you come to me, the nice cop.
JOEL: Wait, he sounds and smells like William Conrad!
LIEUTENANT: Chief Town has ordered the surveillance of a man called James Arthur Cummings.
MITCHELL: James Arthur Cummings.
LIEUTENANT: Yeah, ya heard of him?
MITCHELL: No.
LIEUTENANT: It's a 24 hour surveillance, and I want you to stay with him, until A., you bug him enough that he cracks, or B., he comes up with some kind of statement or incriminates himself concerning a crime in Mexico.
CROW: Or C., you get drunk and pass out again!
MITCHELL: Okay, who do I get?
LIEUTENANT: You get nobody.
MITCHELL: Huh?
LIEUTENANT: No-body.
MITCHELL: What do I do for sleeping, how about eating?
LIEUTENANT: Nothing's gonna happen in the middle of the night.
MITCHELL: Awwww...
TOM: I wanna eat!
LIEUTENANT: You got a 6 hour shut-eye from midnight 'til 6 AM.
JOEL: But eating!
LIEUTENANT: Now Mitchell - those are Palin's orders. [picks up phone]
You wanna call him? See Tigseye. (???) He'll take you to Cummings' place.

Scene 14:
Stakeout Scene
[TIGSEYE is dropping off MITCHELL at the stakeout.]
TIGSEYE: Import-export of stolen merchandise. That is Cummings' big scene. This week it's a big heroin hijack comes out of Mexico. Kilo. Full kilo, that's two million bucks. It may be Palin's idea of a joke, but leaning on Cummings is no joke, my friend. No-one leans on Cummings, 'cause he stamps on people. And he's got a big shoe.
MITCHELL: Let me ask you something.
TOM: Who are you?
TIGSEYE: Yeah.
MITCHELL: If Palin gave you this job of leaning on Cummings, would you say he was giving you a good assignment?
[TIGSEYE's got his thumb in his mouth]
JOEL: Oh, don't suck, honey.
TIGSEYE: I'd say that he was quietly shipping you out of the way.
MITCHELL: I'll get 'em both. Deany and Cummings.
TIGSEYE: No way. You don't get neither.
MITCHELL: That's what Palin thinks, right?
TIGSEYE: Right.
MITCHELL: Wrong.
[MITCHELL begins to exit the car]
CROW: Excuse me, I don't feel good at all! [gag]
JOEL: Hey man, thanks for driving me to my car, nice to have it pre-parked at the stakeout, see ya!
TOM: [clears throat] [sings] don't be discouraged... the man [garbled]
[MITCHELL reaches in pocket for keys]
CROW: Whoah, don't do that! Uhhuh! Whew!

Scene 15:
Cummings' place
[MITCHELL drives his car to Cummings' place and gets out of car]
TOM: Mitchell!
[MERLIN the butler gets out of Cummings' car, he wears a funny cap]
JOEL: Andy Capp?
TOM: [British voice] Boy, Flo's gonna be really mad, I'm drunk again...
[MITCHELL runs up toward driveway]
CROW: Gasp...gasp...wheeze...
[MERLIN lets Cummings out of car]
[MITCHELL runs after him]
MITCHELL: Mr. Cummings!
JOEL: Stop or my heart'll explode!
MITCHELL: Cummings! Ah, Mitchell, police department?
CUMMINGS: [garbled] not due till January, son.
MITCHELL: Ah, Mr. Cummings.
CUMMINGS: Make an appointment, son! Have your chief give me a ring.
MITCHELL: Mr. Cummings?
MERLIN: [pointing at Mitchell] No salesman at this entrance.
TOM: But I'm not a salesman! I'm the chubby blue line!
CROW: As an actor, Merlin Olsen hadn't found his instrument yet.
[MITCHELL gets back into car]
TOM: Gasp...gasp...wheeze...
[MITCHELL lights up cigarette, flame is huge for a second, Mitchell flinches]
CROW: Whoa-ho! The thing with the deal-o...
[MITCHELL reaches for his ashtray, filled with cigarette butts]
JOEL: Think there's a potato cake in here or something...
[MERLIN frowns, looks out at Mitchell]
TOM: He seems down. I'll send him a pick-me-up bouquet.
[MITCHELL opens door, dumps ashtray in the street]
CROW: Somewhere, an Indian is crying...
[MERLIN goes back into house, looking back, angry]
JOEL: Duh, I'm gonna call Ladybird Johnson.
[MITCHELL's sitting in the driver's seat, eyes closed]
CROW: [snoring noise]
[CUMMINGS appears at the window]
TOM: Fluffernutter! Uh!
CUMMINGS: All right now, what do you want?
MITCHELL: I've got some questions.
CUMMINGS: No questions.
MITCHELL: What do you know about a man named Mastretta, and some heroin hijacked down in Mexico?
CUMMINGS: Heroin?!
MITCHELL: In Port-a-Baca Mexico [port of the cow?], about a kilo, was in a truck, ambushed, hijacked, you know.
CUMMINGS: Look, Mitchell...
CROW: I'm King Hussein!
CUMMINGS: ...This is Los Angeles, California. I don't know anything about any heroin, or somebody's got his wires crossed.
MITCHELL: Oh...
JOEL: We're not in New York?!
MITCHELL: Well, I've been told to watch you, Mr. Cummings, so I guess that's what I'm gonna do.
CUMMINGS: Let me give you some advice, son...
MITCHELL: Yes, sir.
CUMMINGS: Watch out for falling rocks.
[CUMMINGS leaves]
TOM: Uh, okay. Say, you got any burgers or something in there?
JOEL: Man, I'm constantly confused.
[MITCHELL looks up in jest]
TOM: Watch out for falling rocks, huh? Stupid.
RADIO: And that was the midnight edition of the news, on KKRO.
CROW: Hey, Crow Radio!
JOEL: Good night, John Boy.
CROW: Falling rocks, I just don't get it.
[car pulls out, lights are off]
JOEL: Lights! Your lights!!
[shot pans far right to show CUMMINGS watching him drive off, he is frowning]
TOM: I miss him. [sniff]
JOEL: Well, almost time for Silk Stalkings.
[CUMMINGS picks up the phone]
CROW: Hi, Larry, I love your show!
CUMMINGS: Cummings. Get me Mastretta.
[NOTE: Joel does a series of garbled telephone responses, these are kind of hard to understand and meant to be that way]
JOEL: [completely garbled]
CUMMINGS: Mastretta, what's this about a load of merchandise I'm supposed to be shipping in?
JOEL: What do you mean, a load of merchandise?
CUMMINGS: I got cops sitting on me! They tell me this and I don't know it!
JOEL: [completely garbled]
CUMMINGS: You what?
CROW: Wearing what? Is it sheer?
CUMMINGS: Get over here, and don't argue with me.
[CUMMINGS hangs up]
[a car pulls into the driveway]
JOEL: Not THAT quickly!
[CUMMINGS gets in, MASTRETTA the driver picks his nose]
JOEL: Ah, nose candy.
CUMMINGS: Just drive around the block.
TOM: Duh, hi, dad.

Scene 16:
Driving around the Block
CROW: Loved you in _The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3._
JOEL: Hey, you want the radio? King Biscuit Flower Hour's on.
MASTRETTA: What's bugging you?
CUMMINGS: Listen, you punk, for the future, next time you start something, tell me before you start it, not afterward. And ship the dope someplace else, I got this cop on my tail.
TOM: It's just that Mitchell guy.
MASTRETTA: It's on the water, Cummings.
CUMMINGS: What's on the water?
CROW: Smoke.
MASTRETTA: The merchandise.
CUMMINGS: Well, it's not coming through MY facilities.
MASTRETTA: It can't go nowhere else.
CUMMINGS: Why not?
MASTRETTA: Why not? Because that's the way Mr. Gelano wants it.
JOEL: Uh huh, uh huh...
MASTRETTA: Because maybe it's in San Pedro now, or tomorrow. It's too late, Cummings.
TOM: Hey, look, an Applebee's. Huh.
CUMMINGS: Well, if it comes through San Pedro, I'm not gonna touch it. Understand? I will not touch it.
CROW: Heh heh! Oh.
MASTRETTA: Cummings, you are not in a position to say such things.
JOEL: You can't handle the truth!
MASTRETTA: Before you open your big mouth again, you better think of Mr. Gelano.
TOM: Oh, no... this may be the wrong ride. Are you Steve?
[Joel and bots begin to leave theater]
CUMMINGS: I say it, boy, because I mean it.
TOM: Let's go do that little...expedition we were thinking about.
JOEL: Okay.
[Joel and bots leave theater]

Well *jeez*, Steve, you've been teasing us about this for
so long I was wondering if we'd ever get to see it. <G>
Been pretty busy, hmmmmm.

Anyway, I'm going to print this out out at work tomorrow
and read it in toto. It's one of my favorite eps, too.
Not to mention a major turning point of the show.

Yep. I need to do a transcript of "Riding With Death" next, after I finish
this one. Riding with Death being my other favorite episode.
