Tales from the Dental Chair

INT. DAY. DENTIST.

CAMERA FOCUS ON DENTIST, THE BUZZING AND HISSING OF EQUIPMENT CAN BE HEARD

DENTIST:
Almost done, I must say I am more than happy with the results.

DRACULA:
(muffled acknowledgement)

DENTIST:
All done, if you'd care to sit up now and rinse.

CAMERA PANS ROUND TO SEE DRACULA IN DENTISTS CHAIR SPITTING OUT THE LAST OF THE MOUTH WASH

DENTIST:
(HOLDING UP A MIRROR)
Smile

Dracula beams an A lister Hollywood perfect style smile, no longer sporting a set of canine's.

DRACULA:
(Sheer Horror)
Nooooooooo! How am I meant to feed off the innocent?

Dracula jumps out of the chair and chases the dentist into a corner then starts laying into him in an over dramatic 1930's hollywood film style.

DENTIST:
Good god man get off me, it's not like you are a real vampire you fool.

DRACULA:
(pauses his dramatic attack)
Say what you will now, for you will never see tomorrow.

DENTIST:
OK, well I held up a mirror and there was a reflection, vampires don't have reflections in mirrors.

DRACULA:
Pah, it's down to physics, light reflects off objects therefore you see them and me too.

Resumes his attack.

DENTIST:
That's a valid point...ooof....however I could also smell garlic on your breath.

DRACULA:
Really? Garlic breath? Breath with garlic? (winks to camera)

DENTIST:
Yes

He curses and heads for the door slamming it behind him.

DENTIST:
(pulling himself together)
F**king celebrities

Suddenly the door flings open to see dracula stood there waving his finger

DRACULA:
Wait now, wait, Now I remember ohhhhh how I remember, Last night I drank the blood, drank the blood of an Italian man, garlic breath by proxy.

With that the dentist opens the window blinds.

DENTIST:
And it's midday day.

Dracula pulls out a set of classic 80's Ray Bans.

DENTIST:
(shouts)
Out!

I got the premise of this from Nigel Kelly's Dentist Quickie.

Not to sure whether the;

'Garlic breath? Breath with garlic? (winks to camera)'

is just too much and about 6 years out of date.

Errr

Nice idea ;)

Shame no one else seems to think so Nigel.... Mummy Teary

I liked it too.

If it's a Peter Kaye reference then maybe it is too of-its-time. But neat idea.

Yeah liked it, but I don't think it needs the garlic breath thing...

I don't think everyone would get it - must admit took me a second.
