Elmer Studios presents... ------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's Episode 106 and it's time for another one of those witty Disclaimers! There may even be a fanfic attached if you're *really* unlucky. Extra special apologies for the amount of time it took to complete this one. Sorry floks - real life got in the way. Evangelion is copyright Gainax. Slayers is copyright Softix/TV Tokyo "Evangelion/Slayers" is copyright Wanderer D ------------------------------------------------------------------------- [The scene - a well furnished apartment, with two couches in an L formation in front of a large cabinet that includes a wide-screen TV and video recorder. The apartment has a few doors to who-knows-where, and a small kitchenette. A coffee table sits in front of the two couches, and a desk, home to a well-equipped PC sits off to one side. There are two Silver Mallies resting on the bench in front of the kitchenette.] [Dan and Yuki are sitting on the couch] Dan: Oooh! It's allmost on! Yuki: I can't wait. Who do you think it will be this week? Dan: Dunno, but it's going to be a laugh finding out. [Rebecca, Rick and Tsuneo enter] Rick: So then my editor says "No way are those big enough. The audience want-" Dan, Yuki: Quiet! Rick: What? Dan: Our show's on! Rebecca: What are you two morons watching? Yuki: Elmer B-Team Survivor! Tsuneo: Say... what? Dan: The entire B-Team have been stranded on a desert island. Each week, one of them's eliminated. The last one left gets a million trillion bsqullion Southern Republic Dinars. Tsuneo: So who's winning? Yuki: It's hard to say. Half of them are trying to out-do each other to be booted off thei sland first. Rebecca: Great. Dan: Now be quiet! It's on! [Scene: Maya and Elana sitting on rocks on a tropical island] Elana: You have to remember that 2001 was allready a benchmark book in terms of science fiction of the time. The film pushed that even further, depicting the future both in terms of human acheivements and an indescribable alien presence. Maya: But you also have to look at the period in which Dr Strangelove was made. With Cold War paranoia- Elana: Hey... The camera's on us! [They stand] Maya [Shouting]: You're a hopless little ***** who wouldn't shift her lazy ass to save any of us! Elana: Well you're a little **** who is a worthless peice of ****! [Maya slaps Elana. Elana slaps Maya. They bear each other to the ground and begin pulling each other's hair] Dan: Cool. Tsuneo: I see. Yuki: I love the way this show captures the human spirit. [Scene: Natasha glaring at the camera] Natasha: Look, I can't take it any longer on this island. These people are maniacs. They're insane. I have to get out of here. I don't care what it takes. Even if I have to start killing people... oh, what a sweet thought, I'll be the first off here. [Scene: Celena looking edgeways at the camera] Celena: Look, I don't care who lives or dies. All I care is that I'm out of here. And I have an incentive. [She pulls several photos out of her pocket] I've got some nude photos of Viscera here, and unless you vote me off this dmaned island, I'll show them to the world. I mean it. All: EEEEEWWWWWW! Rebecca: I see what you mean about that desperation to escape. Rick: So where are they filming this, the Savage land? Dan: Yes, actually. Rick: Figures. [Scene: Janice and Karen building a raft out of tree trunks] Karen: Well, I for one am not going to rely on the democratic process. I'm out of here, even if I have to swim. Janice: I figure this raft should last us until we hit the first wave. Karen: Then? Janice: It breaks up, we fall in the ocean and drown. Karen: And the alternative? Janice: Spending the rest of the ratings season here. Karen: ...Point. Tsuneo: So, er, who's winning? Rick: In so far as anyone could be winning. Dan: Well. Yuki: Ah... [Scene: A bush on the island. It explodes into flames as Tango strides out, wearing a tattered jumpsuit and carrying a minigun made out of bamboo and vines.] Tango: EAT HOT BLAZING MANGO DEATH, MOTHER-WHATEVERS! BUAHAHAHAHA! [He opens fire, splattering the camera with soft fruit. The screen dissolves into static] Yuki: We figure that he'll turn cannibal, eat the others and be the last one left by default. Dan: I'm running a book on it. Anyone care to place bets? [Silence] Voice: Morning all. Rebecca: Thanks for dragging us back to reality, Holly. Tsuneo: I'm guessing that since the Cat's here, we have to suffer through more of EVA/Slayers, right? Voice: That's right. Tsuneo: That desert Island is looking oddly comforting right now. [They sit - Dan and Yuki on the forewards facing couch, Rebecca and Tsuneo on the other couch. Rick sits on the computer chair] Dan: Anyone remember what happened last time? Yuki: Does it matter? Dan: Point. [The TV switches on] >The wolves were gathering tonight. Rebecca [Dark]: For tonight, Little Red Riding Hood would die. >It seemed that the human cub was >again the matter of discussion... Dan: You know, every time you turn on the news, it's always the same thing. Political crisis, dollar in trouble, human cub... >as an old, gray and gnarly wolf >jumped on the Rock and called audience with a howl, the panther lay >down comfortably. Tsuneo: Wondering what it was doing hanging around wolves. >The rest of the pack (including the human cub) had gathered around and >were waiting for their leader to speak. Rick: Fnord. Fnord. Communists. Fnord. National security. Fnord. The people have a right to know. Fnord. Higher ratings. Fnord. Fnord. Fnord. Good of the people. Fnord. >The panther growled as it caught a whiff of another scent, one of a >despicable creature of this jungle. Rick: Vince Russo? >The wolves smelt it too, apparently, since they started growling that >hated creature's name. Dan: For they had caught the scent of the much-feared disclaimer. >"Kahn! The tiger!" Dan: A tiger? In Africa? >True enough, the tiger walked confidently into the circle. Baloo, the >old bear and master of the LAW growled in resignation. Rebecca: Baloo is Judge Ito in the trial of the human cub! >"Before you start the trial on the cub, I have something to say!" Rebecca: I was only joking... >Kahn stated. Everyone looked up (or down in Baheera's case). Rick: [Baheera] Such rabble are beneath me. >Being a "guest" in the moot, Tsuneo: Don't point that moot at me, Moriaty! Yuki: Does that make this a moot point. Dan: This entire FIC is a moot point. >Kahn should only speak when addressed to Rick: What is he? A mail box? >or when the mayor speakers had had their turn. Yuki: Oh sure. You argue legal finepoints with a five-hundred pound tiger. >This was most irregular. However, Baloo nodded his accent to the >surprise of everyone. Rick: [Kahn] Permission to speak freely and make you look like the shmuck you are? >"Speak, oh, Khan." Rick: [Kahn] Permission granted? Boy, you are a shmuck! I rest my case. >"I have come to say that while Rudyard Kippling might be twitching in >his tomb, Gainax operatives twitching on a phone call to their lawyers >and the owners of Slayers, Slayers Next and Try might be offended by >the nature of Wanderer D's works, Tsuneo: They're not the only ones. >WD claims no ownership of any of all the parties involved." Yuki: Or of his senses. >Everyone blinked at that. Even Khan. Dan: Dude. What the hell was that? Tsuneo: Yet another one of Wanderer D's Oh-so-witty disclaimers. Rebecca: So is the disclaimer going to be longer than the fic again? Yuki: We can only hope. >Suddenly an armored giant hand grabbed Khan and lifted him up to the >face of EVA Unit 02. Dan: Now there's an entirely unexpected development. Yuki: Great. a Jungle Book/Evangelion Crossover. Just what we needed. >"WHERE IS WANDERER D?!" Scully yelled from inside the EVA. Rick: Scully? Rebecca: Maybe we've wandered into that X-FIles/Silent Mobius/Evangelion crossover fic. Yuki: I don't think I want to know. >Behind her, Asuka struggled with her bonds. "'Can I see the interior of >your Eva?' she said! And I FELL FOR IT!" Tsuneo: How is Scully pi- Rebecca: It's the Disclaimer. You don't ask these questions. >Khan, for all his vaunted courage was currently terrified. Tsuneo: Well, you would be too. Yuki: Dude, it's the disclaimer. What do you have to fear? >However, the tiger managed to speak. > >"Wanderer D doesn't own you either..." > >"Oh! Not another disclaimer! ARGHHH!" Yuki: Our thoughts exactly. >---------------------------------------------------------------------- > The Evaslayers: Chapter 5 > By Wanderer D >---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > >NERV Central Dogma remained silent for a few seconds, nobody moving >and staring at the semi-melted side of Ramiel. Rick: So that's what happens when you put an eight-sided dice in the microwave. I did wonder. >A few seconds later, Lina's Eva crashed to the ground, immobile. All but Yuki: Flatbag. Yuki: I don't get it. >Gendo blink-blinked, then turned to stare at Ritsuko. Dan: [Gendo] How can we get the others to do that? Yuki: How the hell could we tell that Gendo blinked? His glasses are always reflecting the light! >"Dr. Ritsuko... When did we develop that technology?" Rebecca [Ritsuko]: Don't look at me. You're the god around here, remember? Tsuneo: Shouldn't that be "Dr Akagi?" >Ritsuko remained silent for a few moments before answering. Dan: [Ritsuko] Um... I resign! >"W-we didn't, sir..." Rick: [Ritsuko] Don't look at me, I just work here. >Misato snapped out of her reverie and turned to look at the monitors. >The fifth angel had stopped its drilling for now. > >"Get Eva Unit 01 out there and get Lina in here! NOW!" > >Shinji was immediately dispatched and picked up Lina, while Rei shot >at Ramiel. Tsuneo: Um... So they've allready repaired EVA-00 and moved it to combat status? Why would they do that if they've got a brand new, fully functional and much more reliable EVA? Rick: But you notice they only sent out EVA-01. That means that either Shin-Boy and Rei are trying to do two different things in the cockpit of the same EVA or Rei is out there trying to stop Ramiel with a handgun. >The Angel had suffered greatly, Tsuneo: So he read the disclaimer too. >and, as the sensors in NERV HQ started >picking up the energy build up, both EVA units had carried the third >under. > > >*** > >"Well?" Gendo looked up at Ritsuko from his chair. Rebecca [Ritsuko]: Well what? >"Ramiel has taken a lot of damage and stopped to regenerate itself. Dan: [Gendo] "A lot?" Can you be more specific? Rebecca: [Ritsuko] It's hurt bad. >We have a few hours before he resumes his digging." Dan: Since when have they taken to referring to the angels by name and with genders? Yuki: Do you want to annoy an angel? >"What about miss Inverse's 'fireball'?" Yuki: That? It was all done with mirrors. >"We are not sure, but it seems that she gathered the Evangelion's >AT field and was able to make it *look* like a fireball." Rick: She learned that trick from Tom Dyron. >"What about the fire effect?" Tsuneo: A small flame launcher in the hand. Everyone knows that! >Ritsuko shrugged. "As of yet we have no leads on the fire, Dan: But we're not prepared to rule out arson. >and its >cause, but the MAGI's opinion is that it fed itself of the EVA's >and the Angel's AT fields." Rebecca: [Gendo] Really? Yuki: [Ritsuko] Actually, no. We have no clue whatsoever, and I'm just making this all up. >"Hmm, interesting. But how do we plan to destroy the Angel?" > >"Misato's working on it. We're going to use the Positron Rifle..." Dan: What positron rifle is that? Yuki: The one that Kensuke's been making in shop class. >Gendo nodded. > > *** > >Lina woke up inside what she recognized as NERV's medical facilities. Yuki [Lina as Shinji]: I hate this place. Rick: She's getting familiar with this place very quickly. >"Ohhhh, my head hurts..." > >"Hello, Lina!" Rebecca: [Lina] It hurts more. >Lina sat up in the bed and immediately regretted it. All: Xellos. >"Xellos? What are you doing here?" Tsuneo: If he says it... >"I'm taking care of you, of course!" Rick: [Lina] I'll take my chances with the Angel. >"What happened to that... Angel thing I was fighting? Did I destroy >it?" Rick: No, but you gave it a tan it'll never forget. >"Um, it seems it would take much more than a fireball to destroy it, >but you did a pretty good job of tanning its side..." Rick: Didn't I just say that? >"What? And why do I feel so drained? I just did a Fireball! It's >nothing out of the common!" Tsuneo: Unlike your use of the English language. >Xellos shrugged. "Maybe it was just the adrenaline rush, or the fact >that you made a fireball the size of the Eva?" > >"..." Yuki: I couldn't agree more. >Lina remained silent, now that Xellos had put it that way >she was having some doubts again. Rebecca [Lina]: Maybe I shouldn't have had the sixth course at lunch. >The door opened and Rei walked calmly into the room. She stopped >when she noticed Xellos, Dan: [Rei] How did he get in? >but immediately centered her concentration on Lina. > >"I have our instructions now." The pale girl said. Direct to the point, >as always. > >Lina blinked. > >Clearing her throat, Rei began to read from her notebook. Rebecca: [Rei] Once upon a time there were three bears... Yuki: [Lina] Is this another disclaimer? >"Pilots Ikari, Ayanami and Inverse will be taken at 1800 hours to >a strategically positioned area where Pilot Ikari will use the >Positron Rifle to fire upon the Angel. Pilots Inverse and Ayanami >will serve as backup and shield respectively." Rebecca [Rei]: I trust that you will not turn up to the operation like that. Tsuneo [Rummages under couch]: Let's see... Old sock, evil Furby, Hokemutant cards, both halves of Battletrap... Ahah! [He pulls out a sign saying "Don't go there"] Yuki: *sighs* That brings back memories. >Lina blinked. "What does that mean?" > >"That means that Shinji boy is going to shoot at the angel while you >and Rei provide backup." Tsuneo: So Shinji fires, Rei holds the shield and Lina... what? Twiddles her thumbs? >"No, I got that. What I meant was what is a rifle?" > >"Let's just say that it would be a machine capable of shooting the >equivalent of two charged fireballs the size you shot out earlier >today. Dan: So a fireball from Lina has the destructive power of half the electricity in Japan? Rick: Well... the Giga Slave CAN technically destroy the world... >Rei looked up at Xellos. "How would you know that? It's supposed to be >confidential." Rebecca: [Rei] ...And why doesn't she know what a rifle is? Dan: So what was he EVA equipped with, a banana? A cream pie? A rubber chicken? Yuki: Hey, don't knock the progressive cream pie. >"That, is a secret! All: ... >... Actually, it's hard to miss a giant fireball >cooking the side of the Angel!" Yuki: You know, Xellos has a point there. Dan: Don't encourage him. > *** > >"I bet I could take that thing out with my Dragon Slave." Lina muttered >from the shoulder of her Eva. Tsuneo: Go ahead and do it. It's what happens in every other Eva/Slayers crossover. [Glares at Yuki] Yuki: What? What? >From where she was, she could clearly see >the giant angel as it calmly continued digging into NERV HQ. Rick: [Ramiel] Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work we go! >Shinji and Rei had heard her muttering, and it was Shinji who asked >what she had said. > >...what she had said. Dan: Just to repeat, what she had said. >"You mean that you think you could take that thing with that Dragon >Slave of yours and do it without being in your Eva?" Dan: And again, what she had said. Rebecca: Thank you, Dan. >Lina nodded. Dan: And again - [Rebecca whacks him with a cushion] Er, nothing. >"Somehow I find that hard to believe," Shinji muttered. > >"Flare..." Yuki: [Shinji] Looks like I'm in for a dreaded deading this week. > *** > >Ritsuko turned off the radio. It seemed that miss Inverse had more to >herself than initially appeared. Tsuneo: So judging by that, it seems no-one's even asked her about that little flying-and-fireball stunt earlier? I mean, it's only been four chapters of randomly throwing around spells, you'd think someone would notice. >She noticed Shinji coming out of a nearby water container. His plug >suit was a little singed but otherwise... Rick: Shinji, have you been playing with the napalm again? >She also noticed Misato storming up to where Shinji was standing. > >"What are you doing, Shinji! This isn't the time to take a bath! Get >ready to pilot your Eva!" > >Misato pulled the protesting Shinji from the ear back to Eva Unit 01. Yuki: Shinji was stuck in Mistao's ear? Neat.... if somewhat disturbing. >Ritsuko shook her head. If they survived they would have to have a >little chat. Rebecca: [Ritsuko] So Lina, how do you get your hair to do that? > *** >Lina's Eva stood ready for action Dan: [Lina] I'm in position and ready to bludge! >as Shinji pointed the rifle to the >center of Ramiel and waited for the computer to indicate that all >necessary calculations had been finished. Rebecca: It's about now that the screen saver pops up. >The electrical energy of all Japan was being channeled into the >generators. Yuki: All the hamsters were running in their little wheels as fast as possible. >It was all a matter of seconds now. She didn't want to >admit it to herself, but she was nervous. >For a moment she considered the implications of accepting that to >herself... Rick [UPS worker]: Do you accept these implications? Rebecca [Lina]: Um,... Rick [UPS worker]: Very well. Sign here... here, here.... here, here and.... here. That'll be $24.95. >Sure, she had been nervous in the past, but she had managed to overcome >that with her confidence. But she hadn't really lost someone >before... >"Oh, Gourry..." Dan: Now that we've had our token sentimental moment, it's time to kick some! Rick: Hang on... From the dialogue in part two, Lina was put into stasis sometime *after* Slayers Try. So how could Goury give her the Sword of Light, if he'd already given it away to make sure it wouldn't be used? Tsuneo: Good point. But then when you consider that we skipped Shamshel, Unit 00 is already blue, Lina is fourteen and piloting a bright green EVA that hasn't been built yet and Shinji already knows Kenskue and Toji, continuity's pretty much totally screwed up already. >Suddenly it became clear to her. Rick: She *can* believe it's not butter. >She hadn't been able to do anything back then, but she could do so now! Rebecca: I mean, of course it's a completely different situation, but... > *** >Ritsuko looked up at her communicator. >"Yes, Lina?" Rick: [Ritsuko] Is this going to be about Soylent Green again? Yuki: That's an interesting variation on a tired old gag. >Ritsuko hoped that the girl wouldn't freak out and ignore her orders! Dan: And start randomly obliterating bits of Japan... again. >It was bad enough already. Yuki: We've known that for five chapters already. >"Ritsuko, tell me, the Angel's AT field is a sort of wall created by >the soul, right?" Tsuneo: Can I ask how she jumped to that conclusion? Rick: Well, isn't it obvious? [They all shake their heads] >"Lina, you should be concentrating on the task at ha-" Rebecca: [Lina] Which reminds me, what exactly am I doing here? Yuki: [Ritsuko] Well, you're backup. Rebecca: [Lina] Meaning what? Yuki: [Ritsuko] You back them up. >One of the technicians ran up to her. >"Doctor! The Angel is beginning to power up again! It's planning to >shoot again!" Dan: [Technician] And that's my only line. >"Dammit! We'll talk about that later, Lina! Now forget about that and >follow your orders! Understood?" Rebecca: [Lina] But what *are* my orders? Dan: [Ritsuko] Backup, okay! You're backup! >Ritsuko hung up, but before leaving she reminded herself to activate >the recorder. Rick: Because her Voyager was on, and she didn't want to miss it. Yuki: Why does Ritsuko watch Voyager? Rick: She's got a thing for Robert Picardo. Rebecca: Who wouldn't? > *** > >At the same moment both, Unit 01 and the Angel opened fire. Dan: And a white dove went past. >The beams rushed at each other, seemingly negating themselves as >their powers interferred. >Both missed their targets and blew up against the mountains. Dan: I hope there was no one on that mountain. Yuki: At least no one we know or care about. >Shinji cursed Rick [Shinji]: Oh... Darn it. >-as did most of the other people present- and changed >fusels, holding himself at the ready as the batteries charged >themselves up again. Dan: Loading... Please wait. >Lina scowled as the Angel began gathering energy again. Rick: Ramiel! Use mangabeam attack now! Dan: RAMIEL! KABOOM! >Well, if the AT >field was a representation of the soul, then she had something that >would certainly help out. She just had to wait for the right >moment... Tsuneo: Lina, any time now would be fine. >"Batteries at 57 %," Ritsuko warned. Dan: Pre-heating the oven. >"Everlasting Flame of Blue!" Rick: *snickers*... hehe... blue flame. >"69 %" Rick: Putting in the cake. >"Let the power hidden in my soul..." >"77 %! Come on!" Misato growled beneath her breath. Rebecca: Cooking to a golden brown. >"...be called forth here from the infinite!" > >"95 % Just a little... Damn!" Yuki: Yum. >The Angel fired and, as Shinji though himself dead... Rick: [Shinji] My life just flashed before my eyes. It was really boring. >Rei jumped in front of Shinji's Eva, using the shield to stop the brunt >of the hit, Lina jumping in behind her and helping her with the shield. > >"100! SHOOT!" > >"Rah Tilt!" Tsuneo [Shinji]: That's fine. It's not like I do anything around here anyway. Rick: You know, that makes perfect sense. With the way a Rah Tilt works, it'd completely total an AT field... And the Angel inside it, come ot think of it. [Pause] And the fact that Lina can't actually cast the Rah tilt. > *** >Later that night, Ritsuko was drinking her coffee when Misato sat next >to her. Dan: [Misato] That's only your eighth cup? Rebecca: [Ritsuko, shaky] Yeah... I really need this stuff. >"Yes? What is it, Misato? I've noticed that something's been bothering >you..." Rick: [Misato] It's this huge stack of Disks. you see, Lina gave them to me. When I asked what they were for, she said she'd been told to do "backup..." Yuki: [Misato] It's Pen-pen. He's been out all hours, hanging around strange water fowl... >Misato nodded and took a sip of her own coffee. "It's just that I was >analyzing the videos from the last fight..." >"And?" Ritsuko encouraged her. Dan: [Misato] Ramiel carried that match. Rebecca: Could it be that someone's finally noticed Lina's flagrant breaking of the laws of physics? >"It's weird, but according to the scanners Ramiel's AT field >disappeared completely mere seconds before the Positron Rifle finished >it. Dan: Could it have anything to do with the huge blue beam of light that shot out of Lina's EVA? Rick: Ya reckon? >It's as if something had destroyed it before our beam reached it." Tsuneo: So the result was exactly the same, and Lina really didn't do much, right? Dan: What do you expect, she was the backup. >Ritsuko nodded thoughtfully. "I'll check those myself tomorrow. Right >now I'm too tired to do anything but sleep." Rebecca: [Misato] Yeah, well I'm to tired even to sleep. Er... did I say that? >Misato smiled smugly. "I thought you never slept!" Yuki [Ritsuko]: No... I said I never slept alone... All: .... er.... >Ritsuko shrugged. "Well, I never said I was perfect." Yuki [Ritsuko]: If I HAD said I was perfect, well I'd just be an author avatar in disguise. >On her way home Ritsuko slipped the CD that had recorded Lina's voice > >"Oh yes, miss Inverse, we have to talk." Dan: [Ritsuko] Lina, it's about the penguin. Rebecca: [Lina] But I was hungry! >---- > >End Chapter 5 > >Ok. Don't kill me! Please! I'll try to work quicker! Honest! Yuki: No need to on our account. >To find previous chapters as well as other fics by me: > >http://wandererd.cdreams.com [The TV Switches off] Tsuneo: Yes, that Desert Island looks very good right now. Voice: So if I can have your reviews for the day? Tsuneo: Does that count? Voice: No. Tsuneo: Awww... Might as well do it properly. What amazes me is that someone's *finally* noticed Lina's magic. The amazing thing here is that she's been lobbing around spells since she first appeared, often in front of her whole class, but nobody seems to care. Then, when everyone's concentrating on something else, she fires off a spell that doesn't actually contribute as a whole, and Ritsuko is obsessed with it. Consistency is way overrated anyway. Dan: Look, this chapter was a nothing. It basically came out exactly the same as all the other chapters. The same bad jokes, the same contrivances, the same time-wasting and the same pointless disclaimer. I mean, I know a series is meant to be similar, but this is ridiculous! Rick: I liked the disclaimer. It was, once again, better than the story, while being nearly as long. Rebecca: Well, once again, the story is going nowhere fast. This chapter covers half an episode in incredibly compressed form. The scenes are short and written with the most minimal of descriptions. The plot did advance this chapter, which is a rarity for this series, but it's in a very forced way. I dread the thought of how much longer this series can last. Yuki: Hopefully not much longer. No, this was indeed a waste of time and the singular neuron that was used to compose this piece. It's the same ol same old! I could re-watch Evangelion on DVD and replace any of the main characters saving the day with Lina doing it with her spells and chuck in a few lame jokes and a sentimental moment for filler. No twist. No revelation. No interest at all. Voice: Well, thanks again, guys. Tsuneo: Whatever. Rebecca: I'm out of here, I don't want to get hit by another fanfic. Rick: And I've got a deadline and lots of cleavage to re-draw. Yuki: Hey, don't leave on us now! There's another good show on after this! Tsuneo: Which is? Dan: Who wants to marry a Kazei 5 girl! [Long pause] Tsuneo: I'm out of here. Rebecca: I'm with you. Rick: I'll second that motion. [They hastily retreat] Dan: They don't know what they're missing. Yuki: Should I get us a pizza? Dan: Yeah. This is good stuff. [The screen goes blank] Voice: Reality TV? You can keep it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Riffed by: Rick R.
