The couple were about to join Frank on the elevator when the servants took the two and pulled them back. Janet screamed at this sudden pull.
"Oh, Janet, don't worry! Everything's fine!" Brad reached over to Janet to calm her.
As he did so, Columbia and Magenta had gone to each of them and started to strip them from their clothes.
"Um, excuse me, what are you doing!?" Janet pulled her cardigan back over her shoulders.
"Your clothes are wet from the rain. We are taking them off to dry and so you don't get sick," Magenta spoke coldly to Janet and continued to take her cardigan.
"Don't worry, she doesn't always act so rude once she gets used to ya," Columbia justified Magenta's attitude to Janet as she took Brad's clothes off to dry over a railing.
Janet just nodded slowly with furrowed brows. She watched her walk by thinking about how strange she looked.
"Hey, what are you looking at!?" Magenta snapped her fingers in front of Janet, noticing that she was looking at Columbia.
Janet looked at Magenta with wide eyes full of fear.
"Hey, what're you getting mad about, Mags?" Columbia walked back to Magenta and hugged her from the side of her.
"Nothing, Columbia," Magenta shrugged slightly and wrapped her arms around Columbia.
"Whatever you say, Mags," Columbia smiled and rolled her eyes,"OK you two, follow us. The laboratory is this way," Columbia gestured the couple to follow them.
They all packed into the elevator as Riff Raff stood by the controls and pressed the button coordinating to the floor they needed to be.
"You know, it's a real privilege to go to his lab. Not many people have seen it," Columbia tried to strike up conversation with the young couple.
"I'm sure it is a privilege for you," Janet replied in mocking tone.
"I've been," Columbia added matter-of-factly.
Magenta glanced at Janet with her nose scrunched up with anger from the way she spoke to Columbia. Once they had made it into the laboratory, Frank was standing in the center of the room wearing a green lab coat with rubber gloves and pearl necklace.
"Ah, finally!" Frank gestured for the group to come in.
Brad and Janet noticed how the strange people from before were now standing from an elevated watching point.
"Here take these coats. It will make you feel less... vulnerable," Frank took a pair of lab coats from Riff Raff, who had come from behind Frank with them. The audience laughed at Frank's remark.
The two took the coats hastily and put them on quickly and wrapped the coats around them. Frank turned quickly and walked towards a podium that was beside a naked Greek statue. He tapped on the microphone to test it.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are here to see what has never been done before. I, Dr. Frank N. Furter, will be creating life!" Frank shouted with a theatrical wave of his hands,"but of course, not in the conventional way," he smiled devilishly at his own joke as the audience of strange people laughed and blew on their noisemakers.
Riff Raff stood by the controls waiting for his commands and the girls stood by the couple to watch.
"You gotta see this, it's gonna be incredible!" Columbia said to Janet, still trying to be kind to her.
Columbia looked at Magenta, who was hugging her from behind, and smiled.
"Riff Raff, throw open the switches on the Sonic Oscillator," Frank ordered Riff Raff with a point of his finger.
"Brad..." Janet clung onto Brad with fear in her eyes.
"And step up the reactor power input three... more.... points!"
"Brad what's going on!?" Janet was getting louder and growing more worrisome. Brad held Janet to try to calm her down.
A liquid drains from a machine into a tank with what looked like a mummy inside of it. It started to move with each drop added. Janet was growing restless and she fidgeted nervously with her eyes wide open in fear. Frank and Riff Raff stood by each side of the tank to watch the creature take form. Then suddenly, it had taken full form and sat straight up in the tank. Janet screamed at the sudden movement.
"Calm down, darling, nothing is going to happen," Brad held her tight to calm her.
Magenta and Columbia were both giggling to each other silently at Janet's fearfulness.
"Magenta, Columbia, help us take these bandages off," Frank motioned the girls towards him with a wave of his hand.
The girls followed his orders and helped them unwrap the bandages. The unraveling of the bandages revealed a handsome, muscular, and tan man with blond hair. Janet looked at him with increasing fascination. The crowd of strange looking people applauded with each bandage removed and Janet had wide eyes and an open mouth. She couldn't believe how beautiful he was.
