The team in this episode is made up of a family of four. MUM is the dungeonaut. The advisors are DAD, their son CHILD 1 and his younger brother CHILD 2.

Scene 1 Shot 1: Wide shot of dungeon

The dungeonaut enters a CAVE scene. FRANCIS stands in the middle of the room, playing a violin. An exit is in the middle of the back wall.

MUM

(Shouting:)

What sort of room is this then?

Scene 2 Shot 1: Wide shot of antechamber

DAD

Jesus Janine, there's no need to shout, you have a microphone!

Scene 3 Shot 1: Mid-shot of child 1 and Dad

CHILD 1

Ok Mum, you're in a sort of cave…

DAD

Sort of? Is it a cave or isn't it?

CHILD 1

Yes dad, it is.

DAD

Well say that then. Carry on.

Scene 4 Shot 1: Closeup of Child 1

You're in a cave. There’s an exit at the back. In the middle there’s a man holding a violin.

Scene 5 Shot 1: Mid shot of Trebake

Scene 5 Shot 2: Wide shot of dungeon

TREBAKE

Tread very carefully team for this is Francis the Frenzied Fiddler. Banished to the dungeon long ago for crimes unknown, he wanders these level two caves fiddling with himself all day long. Driven insane with loneliness, he is now as mad as he is musical, and his mood can change from jolly to violent without warning. The last thing your mother wants is to be on the receiving end of his fiddling stick.

Scene 6 Shot 1: Wide shot of dungeon

MUM

Oh, I dunno, it’s been a while since I was on the receiving end of a fiddling stick.

Scene 7 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

Janine, this is not the time…

(OV) CHILD 2

Are we nearly in level three yet?

DAD

Shut up, Will.

Scene 8 Shot 1: Over the shoulder shot of Francis

Scene 9 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

FRANCIS

Halt, trespasser! Who dares walk in on my fiddling without so much as a knock on the door.

MUM

Hello Mr Fiddler, I’m Janine. I’m on a quest for the missing sock.

FRANCIS

Ah, I do like a nice sock – the perfect fiddling companion. Listen carefully Janine; I will ask you three questions. Answer two correctly and you may pass. Answer three correctly and I will gift you a spell to aid you in your quest. But get two questions wrong and…

(points bow menacingly at dungeonaut and suddenly becomes incredibly aggressive)

Scene 10 Shot 1: Over the shoulder shot of Francis

FRANCIS

…YOU’LL BE FIDDLED LIKE YOU’VE NEVER BEEN FIDDLED BEFORE!!

Scene 11 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

DAD

(To his sons:)

Ok lads, let's have a little competition. The first one of you to say the correct answer to each question gets an extra £5 pocket money this month - to be paid for by the loser’s pocket money. Brace yourselves! (Rubs hands in glee).

Scene 12 Shot 1: Over the shoulder shot of Francis

FRANCIS

Your first question is on literature. What was the name of Long John Silver’s parrot?

Scene 13 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

CHILD 1

Captain Flint!

DAD

Well done Henry. That's £5 you owe him Will!

CHILD 2

That's not fair! I only get 50p a week!

DAD

Shut up Will! Don't whinge, you lost fair and square. If you're quicker you can win it back on the next question.

(To screen:)

Give the answer dear.

Scene 14 Shot 1: Over the shoulder shot of Francis

MUM

Captain Flint (as a pirate:) me hearties! Hee!

FRANCIS

Truism acknowledged! Right, the second question tests your knowledge of Science. Which chemical element has an atomic weight of 158.92525 and boils at a temperature of 3503 kelvin?

Scene 15 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

CHILD 2

Erbium?

DAD

Nope!

CHILD 1

Terbium.

DAD

Correct! That’s £10 Will owes you!

CHILD 2

But I was nearly right!

Scene 16 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

Nearly?! One of the most pathetic words in the English language. ‘Nearly’ doesn't get you anywhere. Nobody remembers ‘nearly’. The devil’s in the detail Will, how many times do I have to tell you?

(To screen:)

Give the answer dear.

Scene 17 Shot 1: Wide shot of dungeon

MUM

What is it again?

Scene 18 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

Terbium. (Looks at Will:) With a T.

Scene 19 Shot 1: Over the shoulder shot of Francis

Ter-bee-um.

FRANCIS

Truism acknowledged! Finally, Geography. What is the capital of Morocco?

Scene 20 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

DAD

Another easy one! Will, why don't you handle this? Show your brother you do know something.

CHILD 2

I’m bored – I want to play a game.

Scene 21 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

WE ARE PLAYING A FUCKING GAME! Now what’s the bloody capital of Morocco?

Scene 22 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

CHILD 2

Er…Rabat?

DAD

Are you joking? Jesus, you're less than useless. Henry, tell him the correct answer.

CHILD 1

I think it is Rabat.

DAD

What? No! Don't they teach you anything in school? The capital of Morocco is Marrakesh.

Scene 23 Shot 1: Wide shot of dungeon

MUM

Actually darling, the capital of Morocco is Rabat.

Scene 24 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

I think you’ll find it's Marrakesh dear.

Scene 25 Shot 1: Wide shot of dungeon

MUM

No honey, the French administration moved the capital from Marrakesh to Rabat after they invaded in 1912.

Scene 26 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

(Humouring his wife:)

Well ok - on your head be it honeybun.

Excuse me Mr Fiddler, the answer is Rabat.

My my, we have a genius in the dungeon! Truism acknowledged!

Scene 28 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

Three out of three! You have certainly earned some magic Janine.

DAD

Wait a minute.

Scene 31 Shot 1: Wide shot of Antechamber

(Addressing Trebake:)

Could we have a couple more questions please?

TREBAKE

Excuse me?

DAD

Those questions were too easy. My boys are extremely bright and I want them to be stretched.

TREBAKE

Er, well there aren't any more questions…

DAD

Oh for god's sake, no wonder standards are slipping.

Scene 32 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

(Addressing his sons:)

Ok, I’ll ask you some. Er…Right, translate the following: Barba tenus sapientes.

Scene 33 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

Blank looks from both boys.

DAD

Neither of you? Come on, it's Latin.

CHILD 1

We don't do Latin in school dad.

DAD

Excuses! You could have worked out the etymology from your knowledge of other languages. The answer was ‘wise as far as his beard.’

Scene 34 Shot 1: Mid shot of children

Child 1 rolls his eyes.

CHILD 2

Are we nearly in level three yet?

Scene 35 Shot 1: Closeup of Trebake

TREBAKE

Ok, well perhaps now we can…

Scene 36 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

DAD

I haven't finished! What is…351 multiplied by the square root of 42,523,441?

CHILD 1

We'd need a calculator to do that.

DAD

‘Need a calculator’. Is that what Einstein said?

Scene 37 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

‘Oh dear, I can't come up with the theory of relativity because I don't have a calculator.’ Fine - you got that question wrong too.

Scene 38 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

CHILD 2

What's the answer then?

DAD

The answer is…not important. What's important is that you didn't know it!

Scene 39 Shot 1: Over the shoulder shot of Francis

FRANCIS

Okay, now for your spell.

FRANCIS removes a scroll from his tunic.

FRANCIS

It is written on this scroll…

INT. TREBAKE’S ANTECHAMBER - DAY

DAD

No, no, no. Don't give us the spell.

Scene 40 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

DAD

They don't deserve it.

CHILD 2

But Dad…

DAD

Shut up Will! Three out of five questions is 60%. And what would a 60% average in your school exams mean Henry?

HENRY

(Miserably:)

No summer holiday this year.

Scene 41 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

Exactly! So no spell please.

Scene 42 Shot 1: Closeup of Child 1

CHILD 1

If we don't get the spell we’ll probably be killed soon.

Scene 43 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

Well you should have thought about that before not knowing things! It’ll give you something to think about on the long car journey home.

Scene 44 Shot 1: Wide shot of dungeon

MUM

(Standing and waving scroll:)

It's alright, I've got it!

Scene 45 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

Janine, you…you give that back immediately! The boys have to learn…

Scene 46 Shot 1: Wide shot of dungeon

MUM

Oh don't be such a stick in the mud Brian. It's only a game.

Scene 47 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

(Incensed:)

ONLY a game?!

Scene 48 Shot 1: Wide shot of dungeon

MUM

Well, isn't it? Now come on, let's go to the next room - where's the pot hole thingy?

Scene 49 Shot 1: Closeup of Dad

DAD

Janine, I wish you wouldn't constantly undermine my authority…

MUM

Oh, shut up Brian!

Dad shuts up, scolded and indignant.

Scene 50 Shot 1: Mid shot of advisors

Ok Mum. Sidestep to your left. And again. One more. Now walk forward.

Portal whoosh.

CUT TO BLACK.

Are we nearly in level 3 yet?

DAD

(Voiceover:)

Shut up Will!
