<Theme Music. Major catchup time.. Cut to the Daniels House>
Voice 1: Hi! We're your new neighbours. Just moved into no. 30.
Voice 2: I'm Jack. Jack Daniels. Pleased to meet you.
Martin: Likewise. Who is your friend?
Voice1: Ben.
<Cut to hospital.>
Philip: How is she, doctor?
Doctor: Well it's quite bad Mr Martin.
Philip: She's going to <dramatic music> die?
Doctor: Ooooh no! Nothing that bad. Not that bad at all. No, the trouble is that she's just been kidnapped.
<Down a manhole.>
Loo: So this is what happens when the actress/actor is changed. The original ends up down a manhole, stuck for eternity.
Lucy: Yep. So your job doesn't look safe, does it?
Loo: No... <Pause> ..Unless we do something about it! SuperLoo to the action!!!
<Cut to a garden shed.>
Unseen Voice: Aha! Helen Daniels! Now we have you under our control and there is nothing you can do about it - because you are sick and deliriously ill! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Helen: Argh! Where's Jim? Where's my easel? Where's my bus pass?
Unseen Voice: In your coffin...
<Manhole>
Loo: Hey, I've got an idea! As I'm a superloo, I have one of those lights inside me. Go inside me, then the light well shine and we can find an exit!
Lucy: How much are you to get in?
Bog: 20p.
Lucy: What? TWENTY PENCE???? What a rip off...
<She inserts the coin and light fills the sewer, Lucy spies a ladder and climbs up it. Loo looks round and quickly changes, unseen. He follows behind Lucy.>
Lucy: <Emerging at the top of the manhole> At last! Air! Sky! Sun!
Bog: Yup. And cars too.
<Screech! Crash! Bang! Whallop! Meanwhile, in number 30...>
Ben: So you want a party?
Jack: Yeah! We could invite Glen!
Ben: Who?
Jack: Glen! Glen Fiddich!
Ben: And what are we going to drink then?
Jack: Hmm... Whisky?
Ben: And just where are we going to get whisky from? Stupid idea.
<Garden shed>
Unseen Voice: Look, for bloomin' sake. Jim is dead and your easel isn't here. AND NO! You can't go to Umbongabonga or whatever it is called, in the Outback. NOW SHUT UP. I am trying to hold you hostage.
Helen: One thing.
Unseen Voice: WHAT?
Helen: Have you got a sofa to fall off?
<Theme music...>
Every now and then in Neighbours, there always seemed to be a time when the episode needed serious padding so they just put in a huge, and usually pointless recap. Well hello!
Anyway, most importantly, we've finally had a kidnapping!
Result!
