1986 Film
Edit
Orin was first mentioned in the first scene when Audrey comes into work at Mushnik's Flower Shop with a black eye. This scene reveals that Orin is abusive, and that Mr. Mushnik disapproves of Audrey dating him. He is first seen during the song "Dentist!", In which he sings of how his love of inflicting pain has made him a successful dentist. He first crosses paths with our characters when he arrives to take Audrey on a date and meets Seymour to whom he offers a free root canal. Later during the song "Feed me (git it)" Seymour watches as he slaps Audrey after she fell off his motorcycle. This causes Seymour to decide that he is the right person to be Audrey II's first victim. Seymour then ventures to Orin's Dentist office. Unfortunately for Seymour, Orin has just finished dealing with a patient that actually enjoyed pain. this caused Orin to become greatly angry due to the fact he wasn't able to inflict either fear or pain. He called in Seymour who had brought a revolver to kill him, and decided that he "Really wanted to enjoy this". He then put on a gas mask that allowed him to take in large amounts of Nitris Oxide. After a while he want to take of the mask but realized it was broken, and he began to choke. Seymour, who couldn't bring himself to shoot Orin, watched as Orin died in front of him. Orin died with the lines: "What did I ever do to you!?" "It wasn't what you did to me, It was what you did to Her." "Her!?...............oh, her"
After his death Seymour chopped him up with an axe and fed him to Audrey II.
