Script: Augustus Gloop

AUGUSTUS

Too late!

(slurping wildly)
 

GRANDPA JOE

Great, he's gonna give his cold to millions of people!

(VIOLET defiantly blows a bubble behind WONKA'S back.)
 

AUGUSTUS

It's so good! I think I've had too much chocolate. Ah& Ah& Ah& CHOOO!!!

(AUGUSTUS falls into the smelting pot, head first. His legs kick once, then twice, then he freezes a la magic shell.)
 

KIDS

Augustus! Augustus!
 

MIKE

The chocolate's frozen, like magic shell!
 

VIOLET

He looks like an Easter Bunny!

(An OOMPA-LOOMPA enters.)
 

WONKA

We've had an early revelation and lost a child in the chocolate smelter. It's a shame! the boy really seemed to know about food. Alas, take Mrs. Gloop's Poop to the strawberry dipping room and heat him to precisely 102 degrees Fahrenheit& or is that Celsius?& no, Fahrenheit? Yes& 102 degrees Fahrenheit! but no higher or he may spontaneously boil and that would be a tragedy.
 

MRS. GLOOP

Because Augustus vould be damaged?
 

WONKA

My dear, Augustus was damaged long ago the tragedy would be the wasted chocolate! Goodbye Mrs. Gloop, and good luck.

(WONKA gestures and AUGUSTUS' Golden Ticket lightbox dims.)
