BABY BRIAN COHEN:
WISE MAN #1: Ahem
MANDY COHEN: Ohhh! Who are you?
WISE MAN #1: We are three wise men
MANDY: What?!
WISE MAN #1: We are three wise men
MANDY: Well, what are you doing creeping around a cow
Shed at two o’clock in the morning? That doesn’t sound
Very wise to me WISE MAN #3: We are astrologers
WISE MAN #1: We have come from the East
MANDY: Is this some kind of joke?
WISE MAN #2: We wish to praise the infant
WISE MAN #1: We must pay homage to him
MANDY: Homage? You’re all drunk. It’s disgusting. Out!
The lot, out!
WISE MAN #1: No--
MANDY: Bursting in here with tales about oriental
Fortune tellers. Come on. Out!
WISE MAN #2: No, no. We must see him
MANDY: Go and praise someone else’s brat! Go on!
WISE MAN #2: We--
WISE MAN #1: We were led by a star
MANDY: Or led by a bottle, more like. Go on. Out!
WISE MAN #1: Well-- well, we must see him. We have
Brought presents
MANDY: Out!
WISE MAN #2: Gold. Frankincense. Myrrh
Sorry the place is a bit of a mess. Well, what is Myrrh, anyway?
WISE MAN #3: It is a valuable balm
MANDY: A balm? What are you giving him a balm for? It Might bite him
WISE MAN #3: What?
MANDY: That’s a dangerous animal. Quick! Throw it in The trough
WISE MAN #1: No, it isn’t
MANDY: Yes, it is. It’s great, big mmm…
WISE MAN #3: No, no, no. It is an ointment
MANDY: Aww, there is an animal called a balm,… or did
I dream it? So, you’re astrologers, are you? Well, what
Is he then?
WISE MAN #2: Hmm?
MANDY: What star sign is he?
WISE MAN #2: Uh, Capricorn
MANDY: Uhh, Capricorn, eh? What are they like?
WISE MAN #2: Ooh, but… he is the son of God, our
Messiah
WISE MAN #1: King of the Jews
MANDY: And that’s Capricorn, is it?
WISE MAN #2: Uh, no, no, no. That’s just him
MANDY: Ohh, I was going to say, 'Otherwise, there’d be A lot of them.'
WISE MAN #1: By what name are you calling him?
MANDY: Uh, 'Brian'
WISE MEN: We worship you, O Brian, who are Lord over us All. Praise unto you, Brian, and to the Lord, our
Father. Amen
MANDY: Do you do a lot of this, then?
WISE MAN #2: What?
MANDY: This praising
WISE MAN #2: No, no. No, no MANDY: Er, well, um, if you’re dropping by again, do Pop in. Heh. And thanks a lot for the gold and
Frankincense, er, but don’t worry too much about the
Myrrh next time. All right? Heh. Thank you. Good-bye
Well, weren’t they nice? Hmm. Out of their bloody
Minds, but still
