ost_uid0]"Pies in the Fooled, Part One"ijd gaf: Okay, the last title was fairly obvious, but how is anyone supposed to recognize this reference? NAHTMMM: By paying attention to the next scene. Observe. Disposable Redshirt: Red rum! Red rum! Red--GAK! ijd gaf: Whatever. Arzosah: Hi everyone! I'm here to tell you the next part's just after everyone returns to Earth from Zetar, OK? Oh, and Andromeda rocks! Woo-hoo! [i ost_uid0]NAHTMMM: And yeah, the fight's a rip-off. So sue m--er, I mean, so sue taya17. [/i ost_uid0]*bonk*[i ost_uid0] Ouch![/i ost_uid0]PHJ: What the frell is going on in here? Standback: That's what we'd like to know, and we've been here for the past few hours. Celeste: Now-Zeke challenged Future-Zeke to a duel over the recipe book--and Future-Zeke accepted! Sa'ar: You know, the one we went to Zetar for in the previous installment. catalina marina: Was that an example of bald-faced exposition? Sa'ar: [i ost_uid0]Shameless[/i ost_uid0] bald-faced exposition. Â Hey, whatever gets me lines.taya17: I can't fathom why Now-Zeke would even try this. After all, Future-Zeke's already experienced this as Now-Zeke. He should [i ost_uid0]remember[/i ost_uid0] how Now-Zeke will fight.NAHTMMM: Ah, but Future-Zeke has to be careful not to inflict any permanent injuries on Now-Zeke because he'll suffer from them too--OW! That hurt! ![]() taya17: Then be quiet and think, silly! Now-Zeke has to be careful for the same reason, because he'll eventually become Future-Zeke. Sa'ar: Forty. PHJ: 40 seconds until the duel starts? Sa'ar: No, 40 times those two have gone over the same exact ground, word-for-blow. It's like we're trapped in a sadistic time loop of doom. Â Speaking of which, NAH's using up our Band-Aid supplies. Nan: Heh, those kids. Arguing over nothing. Zeke are borrowing a pair of my foam bats for this duel, so they don't exactly have to worry about breaking each other's necks. O'Pipp: "A pair"? Â Nan, how many bats do you have? Nan: Erm, right now? Â About a dozen, I think. Â ...Hey, I go through them pretty fast. The Blue Screen of Death can be so inspiring. ![]() [i ost_uid0]In the kitchen...[/i ost_uid0]Future-Zeke: [i ost_uid0](walking in)[/i ost_uid0] Time to check my pie. Looks good to me. Mmm, fresh-from-the-oven Zetarian blueberry pie.Captain Galactic: [i ost_uid0](from another room)[/i ost_uid0] Er, sir, I found an old brownbelt. Are you sure you want to wear that 'trusty old' greenbelt?Future-Zeke: You found my brownbelt? Wow, how long has that been missing? All right, I'm coming... [i ost_uid0](leaves)[/i ost_uid0]Now-Zeke: La di da, oh look, pie. Mmm, fresh-from-the-oven blueberry pie. Future-Zeke: Time to eat my pie. Hey! You! Get outta my pie! Now-Zeke: Sheesh, one little slice and you go ballistic. I hope I never become [i ost_uid0]that[/i ost_uid0] touchy.Future-Zeke: You mean you aren't already? Now-Zeke: I mean about something other than exclamation points. What's the worst this can do, become a plot complication? FatMat: ...Let the duuuel beegin! [i ost_uid0](The two Zekes begin circling in a rip-offish manner.)[/i ost_uid0]Future-Zeke: You are using Benoni's Defense against me, eh? Now-Zeke: I thought it fitting considering the enclosed area. Future-Zeke: Naturally, you must suspect me to attack with Nescafe Frappe? --Hey, wait! [b ost_uid0]I[/b ost_uid0] wanted to be the Dread Pirate!Now-Zeke: Oh, but I-you am. It's only you-you who isn't. Future-Zeke: Whatever. Ha! Almost got you that time! And here you go into the Italian defense--short jabs center and left to set me back on my heels, then-- [i ost_uid0]*POW!*[/i ost_uid0]Future-Zeke: Ow, my head! That swing wasn't short! Now-Zeke: I decided to transpose to a Spanish attack on the spur of the moment. Ruy: You know, if not for my presence, nobody would get the nerdy running gag in the last three or four lines. Â And they still won't. Future-Zeke: I sure wasn't expecting a Spanish from you-- Zeke: Of course you didn't! NOBODY expects the Spanish Transposition! Everybody Else: ACK! *thud* FatMat: Oof! ...One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, [b ost_uid0]ten[/b ost_uid0]! And theee winnah is [b ost_uid0]Noww-Zeeeke[/b ost_uid0]! ...Whew, now I can stop talking like that.taya17: Inconceivable! mudshark: The painfully awful play on words or the outcome? taya17: Both! [color=gray ost_uid0]Woman: You still in here?Man: Why did you have to throw me in this pitch-black room and lock me in? Woman: For your own protection. You know, from... Man: Oh, right. What did you want to ask? Woman: Can you tell me anything about Zetarian pies? Man: Ah, their pies. Their pies were irresistibly yummy. But they were used for irresistible evil, meant to destroy enemies of Zetar from the inside out. Zetar would sign a peace treaty with a world and send a few pies as gifts along with the pink copy. Within a few weeks, that world would have torn itself apart.[/color ost_uid0]NeoMatrix: Ooo, spooky. [color=gray ost_uid0]Woman: Sshhh! How did [i ost_uid0]you[/i ost_uid0] get in here?NeoMatrix: The same way everybody else goes anywhere with anyone who wants to go anywhere alone. I hid in the baggage compartment. Woman: Whatever. Just keep quiet. --So, how did the pies cause the destruction of an entire civilization? Man: Supposedly, anyone who ate the pie would come down with a violent, uncontrollable urge t--[/color ost_uid0][color=red ost_uid0][b ost_uid0]GAK![/b ost_uid0][/color ost_uid0]Woman: [i ost_uid0]What the--[b ost_uid0]O'PIPP![/b ost_uid0][/i ost_uid0] :swear:O'Pipp: Woo-hoo! Just five more kills and I can trade in for a magazine subscription! ...Wait, that's not how it's supposed to go... Woman: [b ost_uid0]Do you realize you may have just doomed the [i ost_uid0]Earth[/i ost_uid0] to [i ost_uid0]destruction[/i ost_uid0]?[/b ost_uid0]O'Pipp: What, by killing Jonas? If it didn't make any difference the first few dozen times, why would it matter now? Woman: Hold on a moment. The way this is going, no one's ever going to mention that I'm Kira. So I'll do it myself: I'm Kira. --Where were we again? NeoMatrix: Something about causing doom and destruction. Kira: Oh, nothing important then. I must have been thinking of "Topic Title". Hey, anyone want to go for some pie? Everyone Else: Mmm, pie. ([i ost_uid0]Everyone heads for the pie store at Ludicrous Speed.[/i ost_uid0])[/color ost_uid0]
