Adventures in Odyssey

Chris: Hi, this is Chris. Keep an eye on your clocks, because today we have a real time Adventure in Odyssey.

John Avery Whittaker: Oh hi there. I'm John Avery Whittaker, but you can call me Whit. We were just getting ready for a time of wonder, excitement, and discovery. You care to join us? You never know what'll happen next when you have an Adventure in Odyssey.

Lou Dodsworth: Hand me the duct tape. You know someone once threw a roll of this at me and I duct taped him. Clever. This will hold it firm.

Benny Marks: Yes, but it will still have plenty of bounce. Crying Brian Dern cost us our jobs, destroyed our livelihood, choked the very sustenance of our beings. He's nothing more than a disgusting little pipsqueak shock jock, and now he'll get what he deserves.

Lou Dodsworth: Thank you, thank you. Now hand me the timer.

Benny Marks: Timer? By the way, where did you learn to do all this?

Lou Dodsworth: I read about it in a magazine.

Benny Marks: You're not serious.

Lou Dodsworth: I most certainly am. Munitions Monthly. On sale everywhere. There. 21 minutes from now, 8:26 by the studio clock, boom! This will teach Dern to ruin our lives.

Benny Marks: You don't have to teach him. He already knows how. Come, Benjamin. Let us repair to the van.

Lou Dodsworth: Repair the van? Let's go. Exit stage left.

Guest (Male): Find out what's going on in other parts of Odyssey in the new Elsewhere in Odyssey comic strip. Catch up with some long-lost characters with full illustrated art and original stories. They've been here in town all along, but now you can read about what they've been up to.

Plus, new surprises wait around every turn. The Elsewhere in Odyssey comic strip, a new weekly release only in the Adventures in Odyssey Club.

Guest (Male): Hello Odyssey, it's 8:07. This is the Crying Brian Dern Show here on KODY. And I don't know about you, but I think religion is going too far in this country.

Chris: I can't stand to listen to him.

John Avery Whittaker: Oh, the Shimeholtz Building is at the end of the block, Connie.

Connie Kendall: Yeah, I still don't know why you're doing this.

John Avery Whittaker: Well, that's where KODY Radio is.

Connie Kendall: No, I mean this debate with Brian Dern. Christianity versus Atheism.

John Avery Whittaker: You don't like the topics?

Connie Kendall: I think the topics are fine. It's Brian Dern I don't like. I wish you wouldn't do this.

John Avery Whittaker: Why?

Connie Kendall: He'll try to rip you apart.

John Avery Whittaker: I'm not afraid of him.

Connie Kendall: He's just doing it as a publicity stunt.

John Avery Whittaker: I don't doubt that. But he's made some outrageous comments about the Church and God, comments I just can't let go unchallenged.

Connie Kendall: Well, I don't trust him. Be careful, okay?

John Avery Whittaker: I'll make it my highest priority. Downtown looks pretty crowded today.

Connie Kendall: Yeah, I'm going to have a tough time finding a place to park. I may have to drop you off in front. Hey, look, there's Dern.

John Avery Whittaker: So it is. Wait a minute.

Brian Dern: All these Christians want is money.

Connie Kendall: How can he be out here and on the radio at the same time?

John Avery Whittaker: Pull up and I'll find out. Mr. Dern.

Connie Kendall: How can you be out here and on the radio at the same time, huh? What are you trying to pull, Dern?

Brian Dern: It's all right, Whittaker. I guess she's never heard of audio tape before.

Connie Kendall: Audio tape?

Brian Dern: Well, yeah. I know it seems like magic, but if you just listen to the beginning of the program, you'd know it's a tape of the best of the Crying Brian Dern Show.

Connie Kendall: Oh. Well, I guess that makes sense.

Brian Dern: Well, I'm so happy. I'd love to stand here and give you another lesson in basic radio 101, but I have a show to do with your boss. Shall we, Mr. Whittaker?

John Avery Whittaker: Park the car, Connie, will you?

Connie Kendall: I'll be in as soon as I find a space.

Brian Dern: Try the one between your ears, honey. Come on, Whittaker. Time's wasting.

Guest (Male): And now live from the lobby of the Shimeholtz Building in downtown Odyssey, we join the Crying Brian Dern Show in progress.

Brian Dern: This idiot elevator takes forever.

John Avery Whittaker: Well, it's an old building.

Connie Kendall: Dern's wired himself with a microphone.

Brian Dern: Third floor. Okay.

Connie Kendall: I knew Dern couldn't be trusted. He's trying to trick Whit. I've got to warn him.

Brian Dern: Why not, mainly because what you believe is so embarrassing.

John Avery Whittaker: Embarrassing? Oh, I don't know what you mean.

Brian Dern: What, you've never heard the word before?

John Avery Whittaker: Oh, yes, I've just never heard it. Oh boy, that's rich. I love this guy, Dern.

Guest (Male): Look, should you be doing this while the elevator's running?

Brian Dern: Hey, I don't tell you how to be a security guard, you don't tell me how to be an electrician. It's just the pipe replacement.

Guest (Male): But we're in the shaft and the car is on its way up.

Brian Dern: We're not in the shaft. We're in the access to the shaft. That's why they put it here. Now just relax and hold onto this pipe.

Guest (Male): This is heavy.

Brian Dern: Oh, what's the matter? Too much for you? Hey, did you ever get to meet Dern?

Guest (Male): Yeah, he stops by my desk every day to insult me.

Brian Dern: That's rich. That is really rich. I love it.

Guest (Male): Hey, this thing is slipping.

Brian Dern: Slipping? Well, hold onto it.

Guest (Male): I can't. I can't. Whoa!

John Avery Whittaker: Dern, are you all right?

Brian Dern: Yeah, yeah. I think so. What in the world was that?

John Avery Whittaker: Well, something happened to the elevator. It stopped.

Brian Dern: Stopped?

John Avery Whittaker: Now, don't panic. Don't panic. I don't see a service phone.

Brian Dern: In this old building, are you kidding?

Wilson: Hello? Hello down there. Can you hear me? Listen. Hello down there. Can you hear me?

John Avery Whittaker: Yes. This is John Whittaker. Who's there?

Wilson: It's Wilson, building security. Are you all right?

Brian Dern: Yeah, this is Brian Dern. We're fine. We're just fine. Now get me out of here.

Wilson: That's what we're trying to do, Mr. Dern.

John Avery Whittaker: What's happened?

Wilson: A pipe fell down the elevator shaft and stopped you somehow. It looks like you're stuck between the second and third floors.

Brian Dern: Stuck? Well, we can't be stuck. We have a show to do.

Wilson: I already have somebody working on it and I'm going to call some more people. So just sit tight and we'll have you out in no time. Hey. Hey, don't leave us. Of all the nerve, whatever happened to sticking to your post?

John Avery Whittaker: He's going to get help.

Brian Dern: So what are we supposed to do? Just sit here?

John Avery Whittaker: Well, there should be an escape hatch up top. Come on, I'll give you a boost and you can check it out.

Brian Dern: No, no, I'll sit here and give you a boost.

John Avery Whittaker: No, no, you're lighter than I am. You can lift me.

Connie Kendall: Trapped in an elevator with Brian Dern, a fate worse than death. I've got to find a parking space. Yoo-hoo! Excuse me.

Lou Dodsworth: There is no excuse for you. How can we help you?

Connie Kendall: I really need a parking space. Are you leaving by any chance?

Benny Marks: No, and we're not leaving any van either.

Connie Kendall: Huh?

Lou Dodsworth: Sorry, but we're staying put. Try the next block.

Connie Kendall: The next block? Right. Thank you.

Lou Dodsworth: Thank you. 13 minutes and counting by my watch.

Benny Marks: Takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'. You gonna call the police now?

Lou Dodsworth: No, we'll give it another 30 seconds or so. It's just a three-story building. It'll only take them two minutes max to evacuate the whole place.

Benny Marks: Well, when you go call, bring me back something to drink.

Lou Dodsworth: What do you want?

Benny Marks: You know. A corky clown smiley mug of hot chocolate. Delicious and nutritious.

Lou Dodsworth: Yeah, yeah. I'll be right back.

Benny Marks: I'll be waiting.

Brian Dern: Will the door open at all?

John Avery Whittaker: Only about four inches. Now something's blocking it. Let me down. Well, we can't fit through a four-inch opening, that's for sure.

Captain Quinn: Sounds like you got yourself in a real jam, Whit. Odyssey Police, Captain Quinn.

Lou Dodsworth: Don't talk, just listen. At exactly 8:26 by the studio clock, a bomb will go off in the Shimeholtz Building.

Captain Quinn: The Shimeholtz Building?

Lou Dodsworth: Right. So if I were you, I'd get the people out fast.

Captain Quinn: Wait a minute, I need more information.

Lou Dodsworth: Don't use your stall tactics on me. I know you'll try and trace this call. The only thing more I'll say is that the bomb is to protest the Brian Dern show. You'd better hurry, Captain. You only have 12 minutes left.

Captain Quinn: Wait a minute. Hello? Hello? Murphy!

Murphy: Yeah, Chief?

Captain Quinn: We just got a bomb threat at the Shimeholtz Building a couple of blocks over. Call the security guard at the building and tell him to evacuate the place. Then call the bomb squad and the fire department, and then call KODY Radio and get me an exact time of their studio clock. You can call it in to me over the walkie-talkie. Got it.

Murphy: Oh, where are you going, Chief?

Captain Quinn: To the building. John Avery Whittaker is trapped in an elevator there.

John Avery Whittaker: I just can't believe there's no way out of here.

Brian Dern: What happened to your faith? You're not panicking, are you?

John Avery Whittaker: No, I think you have that market pretty well cornered.

Brian Dern: I was not panicked. I admit I was concerned at first, but hey, they'll come for us.

John Avery Whittaker: Well, let's hope so.

Brian Dern: Oh, I know. God can do everything. Why don't you ask him to get us out of here?

John Avery Whittaker: As a matter of fact, I already have.

Brian Dern: Well, he isn't doing a very good job. We're still here.

John Avery Whittaker: The Lord works in mysterious ways.

Brian Dern: Yeah, looks to me like he's not working at all.

John Avery Whittaker: Dern, I want to ask you something.

Brian Dern: I'm all ears.

John Avery Whittaker: You make a lot of wise cracks and smart remarks and insults. Are you serious about your atheism or is it all just for show?

Brian Dern: Well, I can ask you the same question.

John Avery Whittaker: I'm very serious about my beliefs.

Brian Dern: Then so am I. But what I can't believe is that anyone can be serious about religion.

John Avery Whittaker: There are an awful lot of people out there who are.

Brian Dern: You mean a lot of awful people. That's what scares me.

John Avery Whittaker: Scares you?

Brian Dern: Yeah, that's right. See, people like you are dangerous, Whittaker. You're a threat to rational thinking. If you had your way, we'd all still be living in the Dark Ages. Dern. What's that? Sounds like an alarm.

John Avery Whittaker: Alarm? What do you mean alarm?

Brian Dern: You've never heard the word before?

John Avery Whittaker: Yeah, but why is it sounding?

Brian Dern: The first reason that comes to mind is a fire. Fire? Oh boy. Guys? Guys, are you there?

John Avery Whittaker: Dern, why are you talking into your coat collar?

Brian Dern: Guys, hey, hey, don't forget we're in here, guys.

John Avery Whittaker: Who are you talking to?

Brian Dern: The guys at the board.

John Avery Whittaker: What? You're wearing a remote mic? Is this going out over the radio live?

Brian Dern: Yeah.

John Avery Whittaker: Connie was right. You can't be trusted.

Brian Dern: Look, is that really important right now?

John Avery Whittaker: No, keep talking. It may be our only way of getting out of here. Yeah, you fellows at the board, listen, see if you can't get down here and help us. We're still trapped.

Wilson: Everybody remain calm. Proceed in an orderly fashion to the exit, as far away from the building as possible. Everybody remain calm.

Captain Quinn: Captain Quinn, Odyssey Police.

Wilson: I'm glad to see you, sir. How's it going?

Captain Quinn: The building is almost empty, but there are two people trapped in the elevator.

Wilson: Yes, I know. Has the power to the elevator been turned off?

Captain Quinn: Yes, sir. And I have maintenance people on the way.

Wilson: All right, we may have to wait on that. The bomb is set to go off in nine minutes. Where's the elevator access shaft?

Captain Quinn: There are two of them, on the roof and in the basement. But they're closer to the roof.

Wilson: Good, good. There's the fire department. Direct them to the access shaft when they come in. I'm going up.

Captain Quinn: Yes, sir.

Lou Dodsworth: Nine minutes left. I'd say the police got my message loud and clear, wouldn't you, Benjamin?

Benny Marks: Indeed I would, Lewis. Indeed I would. Too bad this van doesn't have a radio. I'd love to hear what Dern has to say right about now.

Lou Dodsworth: Better yet, I'd love to see his ugly face right about now. Oh, now what's this?

Benny Marks: It's that girl again. She's parked right in front of us.

Lou Dodsworth: Hey, you, miss!

Benny Marks: What?

Lou Dodsworth: You can't park there.

Benny Marks: Yeah, you're blocking us in.

Connie Kendall: Look, I'm sorry, but I've got to get inside. My boss is trapped in an elevator with Brian Dern.

Benny Marks: Trapped? It's not funny. I just heard them say there's a fire in the building.

Lou Dodsworth: Fire? It's not a fire. You know that.

Benny Marks: But what if it is, Lou? Benny, what if the timer shorted out or something? Benny, will you be quiet?

Connie Kendall: Don't I know you guys from somewhere?

Lou Dodsworth: No! No, no. Look, you want the space, you got it. Just move your car.

Connie Kendall: Yeah, sure.

Lou Dodsworth: Oh, way to go, Benny. Why didn't you just give her our signed confession while you're at it?

Benny Marks: I didn't have a pen.

Brian Dern: Why aren't they coming? Why hasn't anyone come?

John Avery Whittaker: Now just calm down. I'm sure somebody's listening to your show. They'll be here.

Captain Quinn: Whit! Dern!

John Avery Whittaker: In here! We're in here!

Brian Dern: He knows that.

Captain Quinn: It's Captain Quinn from the Odyssey Police.

John Avery Whittaker: Can you get down to us?

Captain Quinn: Yes, there's an access ladder.

John Avery Whittaker: Be careful.

Brian Dern: What are you worried about him for? Get me out of here.

Captain Quinn: We're working on it, Mr. Dern.

John Avery Whittaker: What's the alarm for, Captain? Is there a fire?

Captain Quinn: No, no fire.

John Avery Whittaker: No. Good.

Captain Quinn: But there may be a bomb, and it's set to go off in exactly seven minutes.

Guest (Female): Now on the Adventures in Odyssey Club, Bridget reconnects with an old friend.

Bridget: So you're a friend of Candy's?

Guest (Male): We worked together at Burger World.

Bridget: So you were there when she got fired.

Guest (Male): While Wyatt creates a bond of a very different kind.

Wyatt: I found this app called Ether. It lets you create your own virtual friend.

Guest (Male): A virtual friend? How do you do that?

Wyatt: You give it the personality traits you want so it'll talk about things you like.

Guest (Male): Listen to as Iron Sharpens Iron, now on the Adventures in Odyssey Club.

Brian Dern: A bomb?

Captain Quinn: Yes, and according to the bomber, it'll go off at exactly 8:26 by the studio clock.

Brian Dern: Wait a minute, my watch is set by the studio clock. That means we have less than five minutes. Are you sure this isn't a hoax?

Captain Quinn: You want to take that chance? Murphy to Captain Quinn, come in, over.

Murphy: Quinn here, find anything yet, Murphy? Over.

Captain Quinn: No, sir. But we got people combing the building looking for anything suspicious. Over.

Murphy: Good, keep me posted. Out. One thing you should know, Mr. Dern, is that the fellow who planted that bomb did it to protest your program.

Brian Dern: Oh. Well, it's nice to know I'm popular. Captain, is everybody in the building safe?

Captain Quinn: Yes, they've all been evacuated by now.

Brian Dern: Who cares about them? Get me out of here.

Captain Quinn: I'd like nothing better. But there's a large metal pipe that's blocking the trap door here.

John Avery Whittaker: Oh, that must be the pipe that the security guard told us about.

Brian Dern: Well, will you forget the analysis and get me out of here? There's only four minutes left.

Captain Quinn: Why don't you guys try pushing on the door from your side while I pull on the pipe from mine?

Brian Dern: Yeah, we've already tried that.

Captain Quinn: Well, do you have a better suggestion? Now come on, I'll give you a boost. Ready? On three. One, two, three. All right, again. It's no good.

Captain Quinn: Captain Quinn.

Fire Chief Grady: Yes. Down here. It's the firemen.

Brian Dern: Great! Get me out of here.

Captain Quinn: They're trying. Now be still. Captain Quinn, I'm Fire Chief Grady. What's the situation on your end?

Fire Chief Grady: The building is empty and secure. Power to the elevator is off and we've cut the gas and fuel lines. We still need main electrical to look for the bomb.

Captain Quinn: Good.

John Avery Whittaker: I hate to break this up, gentlemen, but we're still in here.

Brian Dern: Quiet, Dern. Grady, Captain Quinn said there's a pipe block in the door.

Fire Chief Grady: Yeah, here. Looks like it's also wedged in the pulley rigging for the cable line.

Brian Dern: I'm so glad we're all agreed.

Fire Chief Grady: We tried moving it, but it won't budge. Johnson, send down the sledgehammer.

Johnson: Yes, sir.

Fire Chief Grady: The elevator roof is too thick to hammer through, but we'll see if we can knock this pipe loose and back the elevator down to the second floor.

Brian Dern: Wait a minute, if you move the pipe, the elevator won't free fall, will it?

Fire Chief Grady: No, the cables are still in good shape. Here's the hammer, Chief.

Johnson: Good. Call back the station and have them send over the metal power saw. We're going to need it.

Fire Chief Grady: Right, and make it fast. There's only two and a half minutes left.

John Avery Whittaker: Quinn, maybe you and Grady and everybody else up there should just get out of here, huh?

Brian Dern: Whittaker, are you nuts?

Captain Quinn: Forget it.

John Avery Whittaker: But if we're stuck in here, we're stuck in here. There's no sense in you guys getting hurt for no reason too.

Fire Chief Grady: Until we have confirmation that there's no bomb, we're not leaving. Now back away from the door. All clear? Go ahead. Try it again. All right, let's try to move it. Oh, it's no use. It's stuck in there. Johnson, where's that power saw?

Johnson: It's on the way, Chief, but there's a big traffic jam blocking their way. It'll be at least another five minutes.

Fire Chief Grady: We don't have five minutes. Let's try the sledgehammer again. Quinn!

Captain Quinn: Yes, this is Quinn. Over.

Murphy: We found it. It's in the bottom of the elevator shaft. Over.

Captain Quinn: What?

Murphy: We've got exactly 90 seconds. Can the bomb squad take it out? Over.

Captain Quinn: No, not in time. It's wired around the elevator base. Over.

Murphy: Can it be disarmed? Over. They say maybe, but it's a pretty strange wiring job. If they cut the wrong wire, the thing could go off right in their faces. They say they're willing to try though. Your call, Captain. Over.

John Avery Whittaker: Quinn, you've got no choice. You'll all have to get out of here.

Captain Quinn: Murphy, this is Quinn. Back off. I want everybody out of the building now. Out.

Brian Dern: No!

Captain Quinn: Johnson, to me, toss down your coats.

Johnson: Yes, sir. Here you go.

Captain Quinn: Here, give these to them.

Fire Chief Grady: Good. Now take off. All right guys, move out. Whit, Dern, here. Take these coats.

Brian Dern: Got them.

Fire Chief Grady: Okay, put them on and huddle together. That'll at least provide you with some protection. And here's my walkie-talkie. There you go. I'll be in touch.

Captain Quinn: Right. Now go.

John Avery Whittaker: I know, go Captain.

Fire Chief Grady: All right, well, good luck.

Brian Dern: No, no, you have to stay. You have to stay. Brian. Brian, hold still. Please, stay. Get me out of here. In the name of God, get me out of here! Please!

John Avery Whittaker: Come on, Brian. Come on, put on this coat. Come on, that's it. There.

Brian Dern: Please, God, I don't want to die.

John Avery Whittaker: Come over here. Come on, now huddle down. Lord God, we need your protection. Hear us as we call your name.

Brian Dern: Ten seconds. Ten lousy seconds.

John Avery Whittaker: Your will be done, Lord.

Brian Dern: Please God. Five, four, three...

John Avery Whittaker: Help us, Jesus.

Brian Dern: Two, one!

Brian Dern: Nothing happened. It didn't go off. No! No, God, please no!

John Avery Whittaker: Brian! Brian Dern!

Brian Dern: What?

John Avery Whittaker: We're still here.

Brian Dern: We're still alive?

John Avery Whittaker: Yes.

Brian Dern: Yeah! Oh, thank you, God. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Oh, what is that smell?

John Avery Whittaker: Well, if it's what I think it is, we never had anything to worry about.

Brian Dern: What? Whit, Dern, you all right? Over.

John Avery Whittaker: Just fine, Captain. Just fine. Over.

Captain Quinn: Thank God. The firemen are coming back in the building right now and we'll have you out of this mess as soon as we can. Over.

Brian Dern: Wait a minute, give me that. What's that smell, Quinn?

Captain Quinn: That, Mr. Dern, is the result of your explosion. Over.

Brian Dern: What?

Captain Quinn: It was a stink bomb.

Guest (Male): A stink bomb? Yes, a stink bomb. Odyssey police are holding two suspects in the bombing of radio station KODY downtown today, thanks to a voice description from a local high school student. Lou Dodsworth and Benny Marks are two disc jockeys formerly employed by KODY whose show, Lou and Benny's Morning Zoo, was replaced by Dern's earlier this year.

Local student Connie Kendall said she recognized their voices as they were sitting in a van a block away from the station.

Connie Kendall: Oh yeah, I used to listen to them all the time. They were acting really strange. And Benny, the funny one, said something about the timer shorting out. Well, I thought it was kind of weird. And when I heard about the bomb, I told the police about it. That's all.

Guest (Male): Odyssey police arrested the suspects as they sat at a Happy Dunker donut shop. Meanwhile, the much ballyhooed debate on KODY between shock jock Brian Dern and local businessman John Whittaker on Christianity versus atheism was rendered academic today after atheist Dern called on God to save him while trapped in an elevator during the bomb threat. Dern, who repeatedly begged and thanked God for his life, had this to say.

Brian Dern: It was just a figure of speech. All of it. It didn't mean anything. Now leave me alone, I got a show to do.

Guest (Male): But the hundreds of listeners who tuned in to the live broadcast disagree. Perhaps Brian Dern will explain on further upcoming broadcasts. And that's the news. Good night.

Chris: That was some adventure, and it all happened in the amount of time it took to tell. You know, the Bible has a lot to say about time and why we should make the most of every moment. In Luke chapter 12, verses 16 through 21, Jesus tells a parable about a rich farmer who had a great harvest one year.

As he looked around at all of his many possessions, he thought, "I have so much, I don't know what I'm going to do with it all." Then he got an idea. He'd pull down all of his old barns and build newer, bigger ones and put his rich harvest in them. Then he'd say to himself, "You have goods laid up for yourself for many years. Take it easy. Eat, drink, and be merry."

But God said to him, "You foolish man, this very night you will be asked for your soul. Then who will own all that you have prepared?" Does this mean we shouldn't have nice things? Oh, not at all. Jesus is simply saying that we shouldn't count on them for our happiness, because we can never know what the future holds, not even what will happen one minute from now.

That's why it's so important for all of us to be right with God, to think about Him as much as we can, and to always try to live the way He wants us to live. And that's all for this time, except to say that if you want to write me, the address is Odyssey, Colorado Springs, Colorado, 80995.

In Canada, the address is Odyssey, Box 9800, Vancouver, B.C., V6B 4G3. Oh, and don't forget to ask about how you can get a copy of today's program called Real Time. The address once again is Odyssey, Colorado Springs, Colorado, 80995.

Adventures in Odyssey is a presentation of Focus on the Family. Real Time was written and directed by Phil Lollar. Our production engineer was Dave Arnold and our executive producer, Chuck Bolte. And I'm Chris, hoping you'll join us again next time for more Adventures in Odyssey.
