Meanwhile, up on the bridge, the crew of the Zepplin was preparing for the
jump.  The captain was barking orders to the bridge crew as astrogators and
ballastmasters scrambled rapidly over one another to get out of the way of
the gunners and cameramen.  "All right, folks, commerical in fifteen, lets
have some action here!  Stiles, lay in a course for Galapagos!  Stand by to
activate commercial drive in.. ten seconds!  Sawyer, get that tape running!
All right!  Batten down!  Commercial in four.. three.. two.. Sawyer, NOW!"

One moment, the ship hung in the midday sun; the next, everything was black.

(Girl at supermarket): "Mom, can we get come of -theeese-?"
(Mom at supermarket): "Now, honey, put those back before someone sees you. 
  I can't buy -everything- you break..."

(Boy at supermarket): "But Dad, Mikey's mom lets -him- eat 'LIFE'
(Dad at supermarket): "But Mikey's -Dad- is a -lawyer-... if you find -me-
  a job as a lawyer, then you can pick what cereal we buy."

(Twins at supermarket): "Mooom..." "Daaad..."
(Parents at supermarket): "WHAT!?!"
(Baby in shopping cart): "Waaaa...."
(Parents): "Please, someone..."

(All kids together): "What can we do?"
(All parents together): "What do we do?"

(Perky young woman in supermarket uniform, waving box of STEPH-O's): "How
about trying -these- for a change?"

That's right, STEPH-O's.  The tasty -new- cereal your parents -will- buy for
you!  Not only is Steph-O's crunchy and delicious, it is low in fat, too!

(Girl at breakfast table): "Cool!  Marshmallows"
(Boy at breakfast table): "Look!  They're shaped like YAKS!"

Steph-O's crunchy sweetened rye flakes taste great, and parents love them
because RYE is -good- for you!

(Boy at breakfast table): "Look!  Marhmallows shaped like YAKS!"
(Baby on kitchen floor): "Waaa..."

(Yummy the Yak appears and picks up the baby, who stops crying)

(All parents together): "Hey, kids, how about we get some STEPH-O's?"
(Girl): "All right!"
(Twins): "Okay, if you don't stay up too late..."
(Boy): "Look!  Marhmallows shaped like YAKS!"

(Yummy): "So, kids, don't forget: stampede for Steph-O's.  Your parents
-will- buy them for you!"

(Fade)

When the lights came back up, the ship was floating serenely in the sky over
the Galapagos islands.
