[Medium shot of a stage where CALISTA DOYLE and THE SIRENS are just finishing a tune]

DOYLE: "Thank you, thank you! That was our latest hit - 'Like a freight train through the plot'. Now we'd like to do a number called - SHRIEK!"

PAN OUT
[CALISTA and THE SIRENS turn stage left and scream, as FLETCHER CHRISTIAN and MARK SILVERBACK burst onto the stage, brandishing pistols and an assault rifle]

SILVERBACK: "GET OFF THE STAGE!"

CHRISTIAN: "MOVE! MOVE! MOVE IT!"

[CALLISTA and THE SIRENS flee screaming off the stage. A hush falls over the crowd and the spotlight turns to follow RAPANUI SINNE as she walks onto the stage and up to the microphone. CHRISTIAN and SILVERBACK take up positions as backup singers, still holding their weapons.]

SINNE: "People of Poseidon, listen to me! It is high time that we weaned ourselves of earth culture - humanocentric, dry land oriented, outdated as it is. It is time that we looked to a new generation of artists to give us music unique to Poseidon - pansentient, as changing as the seas, fresh, new. For this reason we have seized control of this concert to bring you the latest in Poseidon talent. We're the Detectives, and let me intoduce to you - the sentient sea canary, the white sided wonder, the sensation of echolocation, a whale of a guy - put your hands and/or jaws together for BOB!"

[SINNE steps back to join CHRISTIAN and SILVERBACK as BOB'S REMOTE floats onto the stage and the music cues up]

I thought fish were simply not an eating thing
Spent my life adrift in poison seas.
Then Poseidon called me -
(Doo doo doo da doo)
That's the way it seemed.
(Doo doo doo da doo)
A wormhole trip the answer to my dreams.

Got a bulbous face, 'cause I'm a beluga
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm a whale,(Mmmmmmm) yeah I'm a beluga
not a meshugga after all

I spashed down in Haven seven years ago.
Seems that it was just the place to be.
Waters made for swimming
(Doo doo doo da doo)
All the fish is free
(Doo doo doo da doo)
Spend my time just playing in the sea

Got no dorsal fin, 'cause I'm a beluga
Blubbery grin, and sentient mind
Dorsal ridge, (Mmmmmm) I'm a beluga
Not a meshugga after all.

[Music goes to the bridge, as CALLISTA and the SIRENS run back onto the stage. Film accelerated by 20% as CALLISTA and THE SIRENS chase THE DETECTIVES and BOB'S REMOTE around the stage, with many collisions and pratfalls, before being wrapped in speaker wire and hoisted into the rafters just in time for the song to resume]

Got a bulbous face, 'cause I'm a beluga!
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm a whale,(Mmmmmmm) yeah I'm a beluga
not a meshugga after all

No pectoral fin, 'cause I'm a beluga
Blubbery grin, and sentient mind
Say I'm a beluga, yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah (I'm a beluga)
Say I'm a beluga, yeah (I'm a beluga)
Say I'm a beluga!
