Script

Wide shot of space.  It is empty.  From the left a sound is heard.  Gregory is careening across the night, passing past the camera quickly.  Cut to a closeup of Gregory surrounded in flame from traveling so fast.  The camera tracks him until he stops suddenly.  He is outside of a garage.  Gregory sighs to himself.

Gregory: Aw shucks well here we are again, the ol homestead.

Gregory tiptoes through the garage.  Suddenly, the lights come on.

Legory: Hey look everyone, it’s Gregory!  The little freak is finally back!

Dregory: Gregory you’ve got hell to pay, I covered for your shift in the Gregite mine.  Not cool bro.

Iggory: What is wrong with you

Legory: Hold on a minute, where even were you?  You better not have been some sort of adventure, everyone knows that’s the stupidest thing possible.  SO YOU BETTER NOT HAVE DONE THAT GREGORY.

Gregory: Ah no that is not what I did I was simply out for a stroll ha ha. (sweating profusely)

Dregory: Well alllright but you owe me one!  Double shift for tomorrow bucko.

Gregory: Yes indeedy my friend

Gregory enters his room, looking sad.  He looks at a poster on the wall.  It reads “Mine the Mines Or You Will Not Be Alives”.  Gregory lifts the poster to reveal underneath a poster that reads “Journey the Stars: it IS a cool thing - J.S. Gregoriah”

Gregory: Darn it dude I just want to go on journeys and whatnot.  My buddies need to chill out and accept that it is a fun thing to do.  I mean Jesus.

Gregory looks into the night sky.

Cut to the Gregorys in the mines:

They are mining

Gregory (voiceover): Here we are in the Gregite mines where we mine Gregite all the times.

The Gregs sing:

Here in the Gregite mines, where we mine all the time, (clink clank!)

Yes in the Gregite mines, mining is our life… (clank!)

Gregory (voiceover): Just about all of us on the planet Gregorium mine Gregite.  I’ll be frank, it is an unpleasant task.

Gregory looks sad.

Dregory: Mate what is up you look sad.

Gregory: No I am not, that would not be the case.

Dregory: Well okay but I got my EYE on YOU.

Closes his eye and looks at Gregory as he says that

Montage continues.

Gregory clocks out:

Gregory: Well fellas that’s another one for the books.

Gregory goes home, goes to bed.

There’s an explosion outside.

Gregory: What the flip

Gregory goes outside.

The other Gregs are gathered in a crowd, looking up.

A dark shape looms, riding in a spaceship.

Legory: Who is this in the sky?  Why have you come here?

The Dark Shape: I have come to your pathetic planet in search of the great journeyer, the one who vanquished the Dark Lord Carl.  His might is known to all across the Galaxy.

Dregory: Well my friend you’ve clearly come to the wrong place, here on Gregorium we don’t have journeyers, they’re banned just so you know.  Heh get a load of this freakin loser.

The Dark Shape: That’s where you’re wrong, red one.  Says right here on the “Space Internet Search Engine” that the great journeyer lives right here… the one known as… Gregory.

The Gregs gasp and turn to Gregory.

Iggory: Ermmm what the hey

Dregory: It simply could not be…

The Dark Shape: This “Gregory”... I seek him for revenge.  For you see… I am Larc, and The Dark Lord Carl… he was… my brother.

Gregory: Well you know I believe that Carl guy was doing something nefarious and evil as far as I recall.  Also it was the Cacti who actually dragged him away and destroyed him or some such.

Larc: Silence! You know not what you speak. Carl will not be disparaged by the likes of you Gregory!  Today I enact my vengeance, journeyer!

The Gregs are encased in a beam of light, and lifted off the ground.  Gregory looks on in horror.

Legory: What is happening?

Dregory: Gregory, what have you done?

Gregory: eeee not good bro

Larc: Now, I have the upper hand Gregory!  Your journeying days are over, fiend.

Larc launches a laser blast.  Gregory dodges quickly.

Gregory:  No… I am no journeyer.  That was a one time thing where I went out and did some interesting tasks, but I’m really just a mining operator.  I ain’t no venturer.  Let my friendos go, this is not right.

Larc: Never! I refuse! Your fate is sealed!

The Gregs look down.

Dregory: Did Gregory really go on a journey?  That is really crazy man.

Iggory: For real mate

Gregory looks down, and is sad.

His poster flutters down to him.  He reads it, and the face of The Wizard of Yore appears.

The Wizard of Yore:  Gregory, it’s me, the Wizard of Yore!  You must defeat this foe!  For you ARE a great journeyer, it’s true!  You must do this, the fate of your people depends upon it!

Gregory continues to look down, and then up and Larc.

Gregory: You know what, maybe I am pretty good at going on journeys after all.  Hey you, let them go!

Larc: Hahaha nay I shan’t

Gregory: Well in that case…

Gregory launches off the ground, and pierces the spaceship.

He reaches Larc, and gives him a little tap.  Larc is launched into space.

Larc: I will have vengeance….

Gregory: not if I have anything to do with it squirrel bro

Gregory floats to the ground, his friends watch as he returns to the ground.

Gregory: Well I guess you are all mad now since I went on a journey that one time.  Sorry about that fellas.

Dregory: Hold the phone, no we’re not!  We have learned the folly of our ways, going on journeys can be a most positive thing in fact.  You are a good journeyer Gregory, we wouldn’t be here without you.

Dregory: Hold the phone, no we’re not! We have been cruel and unkind, and have learned the folly of our ways from your valiant actions!  Going on Journeys can indeed be a most positive thing.  You are a good journeyer Gregory, we wouldn’t be here without you.

Iggory: Yes indeed

Legory: Quite right

Gregory: Wow that is too darn nice of you.

Pan out into space.

And thus the residents of Gergorium learned that journeys are not so bad after all.  Gregory had proven himself a great warrior, adventurer, and friend.  Now today's tale is concluded.

Zoom out of orb

The Wizard of Yore:  Good job Gregory you are very cool and awesome.

The End
