Hysterical Heights Hospital Episode 1: "Death by Disco"
INT. HYSTERICAL HEIGHTS MEDICAL CENTER - NIGHT
[Theme music plays, accompanied by a montage of various hospital scenes featuring the hospital staff in silly situations, all ending with the same patient, MR. MORTIMER, dying in a new, absurd way each time.]
EPISODE 1: "Death by Disco"
[DR. FUMBLE, a clumsy yet brilliant doctor, rushes through the hospital halls, constantly dropping his medical equipment. He enters the hospital room where MR. MORTIMER lies in bed, looking pale and weak.]
DR. FUMBLE
(while tripping over a stethoscope)
Mortimer! You're back again? What is it this time?
MR. MORTIMER
(coughing)
Doc, I've got this terrible fever... and it only comes on at night!
NURSE NUTTY, a quirky nurse with a penchant for slapstick comedy, enters the room, accidentally injecting herself with a syringe while trying to check MR. MORTIMER's temperature.
NURSE NUTTY
(suddenly giggling)
Oh, Dr. Fumble! This fever is contagious! I can't stop dancing!
[NURSE NUTTY starts disco-dancing around the room. MR. MORTIMER watches her, fascinated, and suddenly, he too starts dancing in his bed, grooving to an imaginary beat.]
DR. FUMBLE
(astonished)
It's a rare case of Disco Fever! Nurse Nutty, we must act quickly before it spreads throughout the hospital!
NURSE NUTTY
(dancing)
But how do we treat it, Dr. Fumble?
DR. FUMBLE
(thinking)
I've got it! We'll need to administer 200ccs of Bee Gees' greatest hits, stat!
[NURSE NUTTY, still dancing, hooks up an IV bag filled with miniature disco balls to MR. MORTIMER's arm. The entire hospital room starts to glow and pulsate with colorful lights.]
MR. MORTIMER
(weakly)
I feel ... alive!
[MR. MORTIMER gets up and starts doing the hustle, accompanied by NURSE NUTTY. The dance floor beneath their feet starts to light up, as if they were in a disco club.]
DR. FUMBLE
(excited)
It's working! We've found the cure!
[Suddenly, a disco ball falls from the ceiling and lands on MR. MORTIMER's head, killing him instantly. DR. FUMBLE and NURSE NUTTY look on, shocked.]
DR. FUMBLE
(sadly)
Oh, Mortimer... We were so close.
NURSE NUTTY
(tearfully)
At least he died dancing, Dr. Fumble.
[The camera pans out as the hospital staff gather in the room, mourning MR. MORTIMER's death, while "Stayin' Alive" plays softly in the background.]
FADE OUT.
