The Perils of Penelope Pitstop: The Movie

Struggle around San Antonio

What scheme in this relic of History known as The Alamo does the Vile villain have for Penelope and the Warners?

Hooded Claw: A Complex Death Trap! What else? As you can see, You four, you are inside one of the Chambers of the Old Alamo when it was a fortress. That ceiling will get lower, and it's rigged with Spikes! Oh, and so's the floor!

Penelope: I get the point, you fiend! You're just gonna crush us to death while impaling us at the same time!

Hooded Claw: Yes, but you're probably wondering how the ceiling will get down! Let me explain. See those cannonballs? I've set up a contraption using an 18-pound cannon to fire them. When they land in that container on the far side of the chamber, they will act as a counterweight, and bring the ceiling down on all of you! Then, you'll be served as Pitstop and Warner Kebabs! There's no one that can help you now! (laughs evilly as he flees and activates the trap)

(the spikes come out)

Yakko: Okay, I've heard of Deja Vu, but this is ridiculous!

Penelope: What do you mean?

Yakko: No time to answer questions! That door is closing fast!

Penelope: And the ceiling's getting lower! What do we do?

Wakko: I'm working on it! (searches his gag bag) But I'm gonna need a couple of anvils!

Yakko: A couple of Anvils?

Penelope: Even I've got to see this.

(Wakko uses two anvils to Hold up the door)

Yakko: It's a little small for the two of us! There's gotta be a fulcrum Release lever on the other side!

Dot: I could go under, but I don't know if I can reach it!

Penelope: Well, I guess it's up to Little old me! (she crawls out quickly)

Wakko: Hurry Penelope! I don't know if those are gonna hold much longer!

Meanwhile...

Yuk-Yuk: Eee-hee-hee-hoo-hoo! We're too late! Penelope's gonna end up skewered!

Clyde: Wait a minute, I see her! Penelope! Can you hear us?

Penelope: Yes, Fellas! The Warners are in here with me! I'm trying to find a fulcrum release lever or something to open that door! You try to open the door to the Alamo!

Clyde: Okay! Pockets, slip me a flashlight!

(he does so)

Clyde: Try this, Penelope!

Penelope: Thanks, Fella!

CRACK!

Wakko: Penelope! HELP!

Penelope: I'm coming! (shines light through a hole and found the lever) Ah-ha!

Yakko: Penelope! Hurry up and pull it!

Penelope: I'm getting there... (reaches in) Almost there...

Yakko: This is Goodbye, my sibs...

Wakko: I'm too young to die!

Dot: I can't die now! I'm too cute!

(they embrace each other and shut their eyes)

Penelope: (Pulls lever) Got it!

(The Spikes retract, the Cannon stops firing, and the door opens as the ceiling gets higher)

Yakko: Phew! Another second longer, and we surely would've been squashed! Or worse...
