King Kong2005

[During Kong's broadway presentation and performance]

Carl Denham:
Please remain calm ladies and gentlemen! We now come to the climax of this savage ritual. The sacrifice of a beautiful young girl. Behold her terror as she is offered to the Mighty Kong! Give a big hand folks, for the bravest girl I have ever met; Mrs. Ann Darrow!

[The audience applauds wildly for Ann. As the reenactment of the sacrifice begins, a prop altar rises from a trapdoor in the stage carrying a blonde girl. The miserable and homesick Kong suddenly stands bolt upright. Growing desperate and hopeful, he thinks it might Ann. However, the spotlight shines on her revealing that it's just an actress playing the role of Ann. Kong is shocked and angered]

Actress:
[Screams, pretending to be scared] Save me from the beast!

[Kong roars in rage! Everyone in the auditorium gasps in shock. The audience wildly applauds and laughs in amazement. The music for the scene begins]

Actress:
[Acting] Help me!

Jack:
[Realizing this is not Ann] Where is she? Where's Ann?

Preston:
I have no idea. I heard he offered her all kinds of money and she turned him down flat.

[Scene switches, revealing that the real Ann is in another theater close by, practicing a dance number with her ensemble. However, she has regret in her eyes. She can't stop thinking about Kong, enslaved and miserable. She knows she needs to help him]

[Back at the theater, Kong is still in a rage over the actress and everything that has happened to him since his capture. Backstage, Carl Denham and Bruce Baxter pose for a group of reporters]

Carl Denham:
Here's your story boys! "Beauty...and the man who saved her from the beast!"

[The reporters begin to take pictures. Kong roars as the flashbulbs blind his eyes, frightening and enraging the mighty ape.]

Jack:
[Seeing Kong's mounting anger] Oh no...

[Kong begins to roar louder and thrashes around on the stage, still chained up. The actress begins to genuinely scream as Kong grows more and more violent!]

Jack:
[To Preston] We have to get these people out of here! [Whispering to the audience] Everyone needs to leave! Okay? Come on!

Carl Denham:
[Hearing Kong's roars] Let him roar! It makes a swell picture. [Laughs]

Jack:
[Still trying to convince people to calmly evacuate] Head for the exits!

Theater Patron:
Get your own seat buddy! You're not having mine.

[Kong's roars grow louder and he begins to tug on his chains. The audience begins to grow nervous and worried.]

Bruce Baxter:
[Seeing Kong's mounting anger, Bruce begins to calmly head towards the backstage exit through the group of reporters] Excuse me fellows. Coming through! Coming through fellas!

[Baxter leaves at the right time. On stage, Kong has reached his breaking point after all that has happened to him as flashes continue to blind his face. Furious, he tugs on his chains so hard, one of his giant wrist cuffs breaks!]

[The audience screams! Denham and the reporters gasp in terror. A few members of the audience rise from their seats]

Actress:
[Genuinely screaming for help] Somebody!! SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!

[Kong lets out one of his loudest roars at the crowd!! The audience screams even louder than Kong's roars and mass panic ensues as all of the theater patrons begin to stampede for the doors!!]

Preston:
[Holds one of the doors open for the panicking patrons] GO! GO! GET OUT!!!!

[As the actors flee for their lives, Kong violently grabs the actress from the prop altar with his free arm]

Jack:
[To the patrons] Go! Go!

[In blind rage Kong throws the actress clear across the theater! Denham looks on in horror at the sight. The music stops abruptly as the terrified band and conductor throw their instruments aside and flee along with the hysterical crowd. At the same time Kong rips one of his other manacled hands free! He leaps up from the stage, breaking the remaining restraints freeing himself completely. The enraged animal lands into the auditorium and begins destroying it, attacking the panicking crowd, killing several theater goers.]
