Joust!

Script by Max Steiner


Ambient field sounds. Heroic trumpeting call to arms. Sounds of drawbridges lowering. Hoof beats.

A lovely pastoral view of an open field flanked by two castles. Zoom in on the leftmost castle, see the door open and the Pie Knight (PK) exit the castle on his horse, heading for the field. Fast pan to a close up of the rightmost castle, which the Black Knight (BK) leaves also on his horse, also heading towards the field.


Hoof beats. Slightly comical charging music (PK theme).

The PK on his horse, lance at the ready.


Hoof beats. Intense, foreboding charging music (BK theme).
