A spoof on the The Beatles movie Help!
"Won't you please help me?"
The Monkees were walking along the strip one day.
The guys were helping Davy find a gift for his sister's birthday.
They went into several stores, but the items were either, too expensive, too cheap, too breakable, too fake looking, too realist looking.
"You know, we've been to every shop, and I can't find anything," said Davy.
"Well you gotta find something soon," said Micky.
"Yeah, by the time you find something, it will be your sister's next birthday," said Mike.
"Then you'll have to sent her a gift for that birthday, plus the one you missed," said Peter.
The guys were about to say something, but decided not to.
Just then, they notice a shop.
"Hey, I never seen this place before," said Peter.
"Mr.Lee's house of Oriental treasures," said Micky, reading the store's sign.
"Maybe I can find something for my sister here," said Davy.
"I guess we could check it out," said Mike.
So the guys went in the store.
As they enter, a windchim that was attached to the door began to ring.
A man, who was in his 40 was looking through some papers looked up.
"Good day gentlemen, said the man, welcome."
"Are you Mr. Lee?" asked Peter.
"Why yes, how did you guess," asked Mr. Lee.
"I saw the name plaque on your desk."
"Actually, I was looking for a birthday gift for my sister," said Davy.
"Older or younger?' asked Mr. Lee.
"She's a year older than me."
"Perhaps the young lady would like some jade jewlery.
Come, I have some in the back."
Davy followed Mr. Lee, while Peter,Micky and Mike hung around the front end of the store.
The shop had all sort of items such as statudes, swords, robes, kites, teapots and other trinkets
"Judging by the look of all this stuff, we better becareful," said Mike.
"Yeah, just like that old saying, He who breaks it, is he who buys it," said Micky.
"Were did you hear that?"
"I saw it on a sign when we entered the shop."
Meanwhile, Peter noticed something in the middle of one of the tables.
It was a ring that had a gold band and a black gem on type.
"What a groovy looking mood ring," he said.
Peter picked up the ring and put it on his finger.
But when he tried to take it off, something happened.
The ring was stuck on him.
"Uh oh," said Peter.
Mike and Micky heard him.
"Was that a good uh oh or a bad one?" asked Micky.
"A bad," said Peter.
"How bad?' asked Mike.
Peter held his hand up to show the ring.
"Hey that's a groovy looking ring Peter," said Micky.
"That's not nothing bad," said Mike.
"It is if it's stuck," said Peter.
"Really?"
Peter tried to take the ring of again, and sure enough it was indeed stuck on his finger.
Just then, Davy came back with Mr.Lee.
"Hey fellas, I found a nice braclet for my sister, said Davy, You guys found anything?"
"Peter did," said Micky.
Peter held up the ring.
"Cool ring Peter," said Davy.
"Not if it's stuck," said Peter.
"Well, I guess that's the old saying, if the ring fits, wear it," said Mr. Lee with a laugh.
Only Peter laugh at the joke.
Davy paid for the braclet, then Peter paid for the ring.
"That will be 75 cents," said Mr.Lee.
"75 cents for a ring?" asked Micky.
"I make it up on the herbal tea."
Mr. Lee thanked the Monkees for coming to his shop, and the guys told him they'll come back soon.
As they were leaving, Peter tried to take the ring off, but ened up knocking over a display of herbal teas.
"That will be 10 dollars," said Mr. Lee.
"10 dollars?" asked Davy.
"I said I make it up on the teas."
After paying for the tea, the guys left.
"You know, I got a funny thing about that ring," said Davy, as he and the guys headed for the post office to mail his sister's gift.
"What do you mean?" asked Peter, sounding a bit nervous.
"If a ring is that stuck on, that can only mean back luck for the person wearing it."
"That's just a myth," said Mike.
"Yeah, like that movie with that singing group a few weeks back," said Micky.
Just then, a bird that was flying by dropped something onto Peter's shoulder.
"You were saying?" asked Davy.
"It happens to everyone," said Mike.
Just then, a car zooming by drove through a puddle, sprayed Peter with water.
"That happens to everyone to," said Micky.
Down the road, an eldery lady tripped on a crack on the sidewalk.
She didn't fall, but a package she was holding fell out of hands and landed on Peter.
The package turned out to be a bakery box, containing a banana coconut cream pie.
