Text transcript
<<ZAM>> Rabish: GAH! Rabid: If I'm in her body, is she in this ping-pong ball? How can I find out? Dr Quickly: This device measures galvanic response or something. If the ball becomes agitated, we'll be able to detect it! Rabid: RABISH ARE YOU IN THERE? Rabish: yeah Dr Quickly: I'm afraid I don't know any way to get her out of the ball, but if we paint it shiny black and come up with a gimmick... Rabid: What a racket that woudl be! Rabish: cool Rabid: Step right up! Mark: Lady, you've got the affect of a dude. Let's see if this thing works! Mark: Will I ever find true love? Rabish: not if you keep hanging out at third-rate fairgrounds Mark: Uncanny!
