*Scene opens of Glom, where we see John, Paul, and George sleeping on top of the hill. It is deep into the night on Glom, with only a couple of Glommites walking around. The Leader quietly walks up to the top of the hill. She stops next to the three sleeping Beatles and turns one of her hands into an air horn. She points the air horn towards them and it goes off, scaring all of them awake*

Paul: AAHH! Wha, What?

John: Yes Brian, we're up!

George: Give me them jelly babies! Oh wait...

Leader: *laughs* Sounds like you had a fun dream, George.

*The Leader changes her hand back to normal and looks out at the crowd of sleeping Glommites. The few Glommites who were awake are all looking at her*

Leader: This is one time I'm thankfull that they tend to be heavy sleepers.

*The Leader turns back to face John, Paul, and George, all of whom are sitting up*

Leader: Rise and shine, boys. Break time's over.

*Paul rubs his eyes and yawns*

Paul: C-can we just h-have a full night's r-rest? P-please?

Leader: No. Some Glommites here prefer to have nocturnal schedule, and they deserve to enjoy your music as well.

*The few Glommites who have been awake all gather around the hill, smiling*

John: One... Three... T-there's only seven h-here. Is i-it worth it?

*John lays on his back again, closing his eyes*

Leader: Yes it is, John. Now, get up.

George: I'm s-still tired...

*The Leader scoffs, crossing two of her arms*

Leader: And you all want to prove that you're not lazy bugs? Just stand up, stretch, and get to work.

*Paul stands up aand stretches, scratching his back*

Paul: We've been out f-for an hour a-already? It f-felt like five seconds...

*George stands up and rubs his eyes, only to faintly make out a familiar shape in the darkness. He looks past the Leader, spotting the couch that had once been in the living room back in their house. The Leader notices his gaze and turns to glance at it.*

Leader: Oh, that? Yep, found it in the cargo hold while cleaning it out earlier. Thanks for the free gift, by the way.

*John perks his head up and squints his eyes to focus on whatever it is that she is talking about. He spots the couch and grunts.*

John: I t-thought that the beam wasn't powerful enough t-to pull it up too.

*George looks at him, annoyed*

George: Thanks for smashing it into me.

John: Agh, shut up...

*Slowly, John stands up and puts a hand to his forehead. The Leader walks to the couch and turns into her human form, sitting down on it.*

Leader: I have to admit that it is comfy. But I think it's a little too small for me.

Paul: *mumbling* Sure. Too small for your fat-

Leader: Is there something you'd like to say to me, Paul?

*Paul shuts his mouth instantly. Though his mind is still foggy with sleep, he is able to remember the warning instantly*

Paul: Uh, no...

*The Leader squints at him*

Leader: I thought so.
