Scene: The Costanzas step into the Castle Anthrax, with its seemingly endless corridors, all leading to the giggling maidens, Zoot, Dingo, and the gang. Frank immediately goes on high alert, squinting suspiciously at the walls.
Frank: "This place looks like a bad '70s disco, and you—" gestures to the maidens "—you all belong in a straight jacket! What is this, some kind of cult?"
George, looking overwhelmed: "Dad, please. Can we just get out of here? I don't trust those looks."
Estelle: "Oh, George, stop being so dramatic! It's just a bunch of girls! They're harmless."
Frank: "Harmless? They look like they’re plotting my death with glitter glue!"
Zoot (cheerfully approaching them): "Welcome to Castle Anthrax! We are here to serve you! There are many ways to serve—"
Frank, cutting her off: "Oh, don't even start with me! I've seen this in the movies! This is how people get disappeared!"
Zoot: "But we only want to serve you, Frank!"
Frank: "Serve me? I don't want your serving! What are you going to do? Offer me a bottle of wine and a slap on the back while you steal my wallet?"
Estelle (looking at the maidens): "Oh, look at their costumes, George! They look so... flamboyant. What’s with the whole aesthetic, huh?"
Dingo: "It's more than aesthetic, it's freedom! We live in the spirit of the castle!"
Frank: "Freedom? The only spirit I see is in your hair dye! You’re all nuts!"
George: "Dad, please, stop embarrassing me!"
Estelle: "George, stop being so uptight! They're just having fun. You need to loosen up."
Frank (in disbelief): "Loosen up? I'm surrounded by lunatics who think they’re part of some medieval reality show! Where’s the exit?"
Zoot: "There is no exit until we’ve served you. You can’t leave until we—"
Frank: "Until you what, kidnap me and turn me into a wool sweater? No thanks! You think you’re the only ones who can laugh at me? I’ll have you know, I’ve survived worse than this!"
Dingo, smiling: "But Frank, you haven’t experienced true joy yet!"
Frank, gesturing to George and Estelle: "Joy? This? This is misery with a side of confusion! What next? Are you gonna force me to join a knitting circle?"
Zoot: "Well, actually—"
Frank, jumping up: "That's it! I’m outta here!" He marches toward the door.
Estelle: "Frank! You’re ruining it! Just relax, it’s an experience!"
Frank, as he exits: "Experience? Yeah, it’s called a nightmare!"
Meanwhile, George looks around, bewildered. He mutters: "I can't believe Dad did that. Do you think they’ll let us leave now?"
Zoot, smiling brightly: "Oh, George, we would never make you leave so soon! We’re here to serve you too!"
