Dear all you MST3K fans out there:
Having made my arival on the internet scene almost nine months ago, I have
cranked out
many MiSTings in such a short time. Because of my unfamiliarity with the Joel
episodes, I have
created my own continuity with Science Fiction Theater 1,000,000,000. But on
this day, November
24, 1998, I would like to wish MST3K a happy 10th birthday by writing my first
(and probably
last) Joel-era SFT1B episode! Enjoy.

-Jim Whaley

episode 206 of SFT1B

MAGIC VOICE: WARNING! CONTINUITY UNSTABLE! TIME WARP DETECTED! ORIGIN: EDEN
PRARIE, MN;
VICINITY OF GIZMONIC INSTITUTE, JANUARY 23, 1993.

END WARNING.

Turn down your lights...(where applicable)

In the not-too-distant future,
Next Sunday, A.D.
There was a guy named Joel,
Not too different from you or me.

He worked at Gizmonic Institute,
Just another face in a red jumpsuit.
He did a good job cleaning up the place,
But his bosses didn't like him so they shot him into space!

We'll send him cheesy stories.
The worst we can find. (lalala)
He'll have to sit and read them all
And we'll monitor his mind! (lalala)

Now keep in mind Joel can't control
Where the fanfics begin or end, (lalala)
Because he used those special parts
To make his robot friends!

ROBOT ROLL CALL
CAMBOT! (pan left)
GYPSY! (hi, girl)
TOM SERVO (what a cool guy)
CROOOOOOOW! (he's a wisecracker)

If you're wondering how he eats and breathes,
And other science facts, (lalala)
Go get a degree in physics
Or really just relax!

for Science Fiction Theater 1,000,000,000!

[Joel-era doors] 1...2...3...4...5...6...G

[SOL int.] Joel, Crow and Servo are all wearing pirate's costumes, with
eyepatches and
everything.

JOEL[as pirate]: Arr, me mayties, 'tis the Satelite of Love all ye buccaneers
out thar!
CROW[as pirate]: We all's gona make ye walk the plank if ye disapprove of
today's show!
SERVO[as gangster]: And we can make youse an offer you cannot refuse.
CROW[normal]: Servo, you're a *pirate*.
SERVO: Oh, right. [pirate] And ye all are gonna see yonder show, AND YER GONNA
LOVE IT, TOO, OR
ELSE!
MAGIC VOICE: Hey, can I be a pirate, too?
JOEL[normal]: Sure, Magic Voice! There were many great female pirates as well
as male pirates
in Earth's history.
MAGIC VOICE: But I'm not female or male.
JOEL: Oh, right...well, just the same!
MAGIC VOICE[shreiky-voiced pirate]: Arr! I do think that yonder commercial
sign is'a callin'!

-commercial sign-

[Gypsy enters with an eyepatch over her eye. She keeps coming and knocks into
Crow, who
looses his eyes.]

GYPSY[while entering]: Joel, do you think this is a good idea? [crash] Oopsie.
CROW: Thanks a lot, Gyps. Next time get a transparent eyepatch, okay?
GYPSY: Sorry.

[commercials]

[SOL int] Joel is gluing Crow's eyes back on.

JOEL: There you go, Crow. Good as new.
CROW: Thanks. Next time we do the opening, can we be Jehovas' witnesses?
JOEL: Um...

-Mads' sign-

JOEL: Oh, Masin and Shean are calling. [hits button]

[Deep 13] Frank is standing behind the control pannel. Dr. F. isn't seen, but
we hear him off
camera.

DR. F: Frank! Come help me lift the invention into the lab!
FRANK[to one side]: I'll be right there, Steve! I'm saying hello to Joel!
DR. F: Stop being a good samaratin and help me! Ung! [we hear Forrester
trying to lift
a large metal machine of some sort]
FRANK: Well, hello Joel and you too, 'bots. Mr. Impatient over there worked
all week on this
invention exchange. He invented a-
DR. F: JUST GET IN HERE OR I'LL KILL YOU!
FRANK: But you killed me three times already this week! [to Joel] Anyway,
you'd better do yours
first.
DR. F: FRANK!
FANNK: I'm coming, Mr. Antsy-Pants! Sheesh! [walks off screen to the left.]

[SOL] Joel is holding what looks like a shadeless lamp, but instead of a light
bulb, a
wristwatch is attached.

JOEL: Well, our latest invention comes from an experience I had in the last
period of
darkness that occurs up here 30 times a day. I couldn't see my watch to find
out what time it
was, so I invented...

[Crow turns the switch with his beak and the watch lights up.]

SERVO: A luminescent watch! You can see what time it is no matter how dark it
is!
JOEL: But you do need to be in the vicinity of a power outlet.
CROW: So you don't have to!
SERVO: Huh?
JOEL: Back to you, sirs!

[D13] an empty lab

DR. F[off-screen]: No, use your legs to lift!
FRANK[Off-screen]: I'm trying!
DR. F[os]: Try harder!
FRANK[os]: Uuuungg!

[we hear the machine fall to the ground and break with "boing"s, "klang"s and
"hiss"es. A dirty
Dr. F appears from the left]

DR. F: Umm, my projecting machine is a bit too heavy to bring in, but I've
prepared a back-up
invention! [holds up what looks like an N64 controler with 3x the buttons]
This is the
ultimate in video gaming technology! I call it the Virtual Simulato 30000! It
has an
incredibly realistic gameplay feature; It creates invisible forcefeilds that
move your body in
sync with the video game! Let's say I wanted to move forward. [pushes control
stick up.
He starts walking] And presto! It controls your body movements. Now say I
wannted to fire a
gun. [presses a button. He recoils three feet back and a large shot sound
effect is heard.]
See how much fun you can have? And the two-player mode is great for those WWF
games!

[Frank enters with a duplicate controler]

FRANK: Watch me take a swing at Dr. F. I'll use my "Blow opponent's head off"
cheat.

[Franks tapps a code into the controler and swings at Dr. F.]

[The camera immediately cuts to SOL]

ALL: Eeeew! That's disgusting!

[Deep 13] Frank and Dr. F. are standing there with no sign of the invention or
wounds.

DR. F: And once you turn the game off, everything goes back to normal.
FRANK: And now, it's time to send you your movie!
DR. F: It's called "Manos: The Hands of Fate". I think you're in for some
deep hurting!
BWAHAHA! Send them the movie, Frank.
FRANK: Umm...I don't have it.
DR. F: YOU WHAT!
FRANK: I thought you had it!
DR. F: Ooooh, I'll kill you again later! Well, Joel, looks like you're off
the hook this week.
I'm going to send you something different. It's from the
alt.fan.sonic-hedgehog newsgroup and
it's really cheap. Have a nice day.

[SOL] -movie sign-

SERVO: A luminescent watch! What a concept, Joel!
CROW: Yeah, but it'll probably never catch on.
JOEL: WE GOT MOVIE SIGN!!!

JOEL: Well, Servo, when two people love each other...

SERVO: The L key is nowhere *near* that T key! What the?
JOEL: Now, Servo, his last story wasn't that bad.
CROW: May I remind you two gentlemen that we've stepped out of continuity
three times already
and the fanfic hasn't even started?

SERVO: Okay, which Sonic continuity are we in?
CROW: I'm on it...calculating...

CROW: A neanderthall with a doorbell is stuck in there with him.

JOEL: I could have pawned it off for seven grand!

torn

JOEL: But aren't his fists already there on his arms?

cat,

CROW: He's stumbled onto the Rocky Horror Picture Void!

> I vaguely recognized her. She was one of the maids.

SERVO[as maid]: This place is so messy! Crystals flying around everywhere!
Did the owner of
this place live in a barn?

> "Yer Majesty?" she gaped. "What ye doin' 'ere, eh?"
> I didn't reply.

JOEL: Her accent was too much to take.
CROW: Just don't acnowlege it and it'll go away.

> "'Ey, ye gonna gab er what?" She poised expertly on the crystal chunk
that

SERVO: Mrs. Maid, are you trying to seduce me?

> "War Minister Julian," I said slowly.

CROW: Um...no. That's a female cat.
JOEL: This guy is *gone*.

> "He threw me in here. He's overtaken the kingdom.

CROW: And who's fault is that, hmm?

> Her eyes, snugly nestled in

SERVO: ...their sockets.

JOEL: Weren't they already?

> I could see the
> red veins that laced the white. "Yehr, 'e didn't?"

CROW: No, *'E* didn't, *Julian* did.

> "He did," I said grimly.
> She smoothed down her blue dress, which looked surprisingly new and clean.

SERVO: That's because she's a *maid*.

> Hadn't she disappeared a long time ago? "Ye jest get in 'ere?"
> "Yes."
> "Then ye haven't gotten it yet. Yehr, the silence it'll drive ye mad!"

JOEL[as maid]: The silence ees what 'eeps me dress clean.

> "What silence?" It WAS quiet.

CROW: IT WAS QUIET.

> Not a sound in the air. Only that rushing noise

JOEL: Oh, Sonic's in there with them.

> your ears make in complete silence. I realized how muted her voice was.

SERVO: Then grab the remote and turn her volume up.

> "How did you get in here, ma'am?"
> "Er, me been in 'ere a long long time. Back when Juli an' Nagus..." She

CROW: rather intently at the young king's--

SERVO: Oh, he were? How was us doing tomorow?
CROW: Why is Sonic? Am he at the grocery store?
JOEL: What were the shoe at those book?

> Er,

> "Trapped?" My voice grew weak.

JOEL: What, you thought there was a door around here leading back to
Mobotropolis?

> "Er, don't be worryin', yer Majesty. It ain't that bad in 'ere. Not with

CROW: To be more specific, it was her-
JOEL[over the next word]: SHOES!
CROW: -that looked wondrous. Hey!

ALL[singing]: 'Ome, 'ome on the range...'ere 'e deer an' can'all'ope play...

SERVO[as King Acorn]: Waaaah! I want my kingdom back! Waaaaaah!

CROW: "Thick Riven of Myst near me?" Is he in Cyan's corporate building?
JOEL[announcing]: Folks, do not be alarmed. This is only a demonstration of
harmless wordplay
to the extreme. Do not attempt this at home.

SERVO: Because that's what mists do.

CROW: He's not King Acorn, he's Prince Valium!

JOEL: Tell her you lover her... with a crystal tree. Great for the home or

SERVO[as King Acorn]: And that brings us to now. Let's join me, already in
progress.

couldn't

CROW: He's so bashful even when he's alone.

> Silence is so much louder than it should be.

JOEL: Is that an artistic statement or is he just being goofy?

> It is maddening. Silence...it is a sound itself...

CROW[as Acorn]: ...Wait...I'm full of crap!

> a sound that made my ears numb with its rushing and ringing.

SERVO: The Sounds of Silence.

JOEL[as Acorn]: Then I took the earplugs out and everything was better.

> **This is what the deaf hear.

ALL: Wrong!

> This is what they go through.** I wondered if
> I'd gone deaf. Then I remembered Henrietta. She'd said something about this

SERVO: I remember now...she said "This place is silent".

> I stood up. How did she deal with it? Maybe she could tell me.

JOEL: Although you wouldn't be able to hear her tell you.

CROW: Ah, Henrietta hasn't dusted this part of the Void for a while.

SERVO: Then see an optomitrist! Don't go whining to us!

SERVO: He would bask in something intangible.
CROW: And he could hear silence.
JOEL: And he could burp bubbles.
SERVO and CROW: Huh?

> As I neared the castle, my head felt compressed and I groaned in pain.

SERVO: Then take the vice off your head!

> The

CROW: His descent into madness is driving *me* mad!

JOEL: Guys, we have to say *something*! It's a union rule! At least one
comment every six
lines or less!
SERVO: I don't wanna!
CROW: I can't hear you, I'm in the Zone of Silence.
SERVO: Wrong universe. It's the Void.
CROW: Oh, right.

SERVO: Wow. Huge eyes.

JOEL[as Acorn]: I was almost positive he meant Mr. Rogers.

SERVO: ...Because I had hired thugs to...oh, shoot, did I just say that out
loud?

> I rasped, "Wizard Nagus?"
> **Is the silence killing you?**

CROW: Defying all the laws of nature, yes.

> The voice was in my mind.

JOEL: He shouldn't have gone on that binge the night before.
SERVO: Runing through the mists until he got all plowed.

SERVO[as Acorn]: Oh, yes! Oh, God, yes! Screw the silence! Papa's comin'
home!

> the silence?**
> **Maybe.** It depended on what Nagus would want in exchange.

JOEL[as pleasant Devil]: Here, you just sign here, here, and print your
initials here and your
eternal soul will belong to me! Here's a boom box. Bye.

> **Then you shall be. If you will call me Lord.**
> I didn't like the idea. It was my ego protesting. But ego meant nothing

SERVO: Hey, maybe we can throw Marrissa in there and see what happens.

> My mind would splinter into pieces if I had to endure anymore of this

> Nagus eyed me closely. He was expecting me to refuse. I smiled nobly. I

CROW: But I *was* intelligent enough to use Webster-approved diologue.

> **Then so be it, Lord Nagus.**
> He looked surprised, which I expected.
> "You gave in easily, Maximillion Acorn. I'm surprised we won the Great
War."

SERVO: Hey! It's not called the "*Great* Void"! They broke the rules!
CROW: Yeah!

>
> I was barely listening. Barely noticing that I _could_ hear. Instead,
my

> Because when I looked down at my body, I saw it was crystal! Purple
crystal.
> The crystalline growth took over my hands and then my face. It was a
> strange tickley feeling.

[Servo giggles in a girlish voice]
CROW: Yuck! Stop it!

> I felt no less heavy with the crystallized parts and I flexed
> my fingers. They worked just as well...but still I was startled.

JOEL[as Acorn]: But then I froze solid as a rock. Too bad.

> "What is the meaning of this, Nagus?"
> The wizard looked smug. "To hear the Void, you must become part of the
Void!"

CROW: See the Void, be the Void.

> And I could hear. It was wonderful. There was a beautiful humming in
the
> air,
> as if the crystal was singing. The crystalline trees near me hummed with a
> deeper note, and their leaves clanked in the persistent breeze.

JOEL: Now he's driven mad by all the wind chimes.
SERVO[as Acorn]: Nooooo!!

> "You can return to your natural state whenever you wish. But only the
> crystal will save you from the silence."
> I thanked him out of curtsey. I _was_ grateful. But Nagus had always
been a

> thing...but anything beyond that...

CROW: Then he started taking off his pants and I realized he had teleported us
to a nearby
Motel 6...

> Nagus grinned strangely at me and then disappeared. I sat down and
examined
> my crystallized body. The crystal was purple but I could see faint color
> through it...the blue of my uniform, and the tan of my fur.
> As I sat and contemplated all this, I heard a chuckle behind me. "Me
sees
> ye've 'scaped the silence." Henrietta sat down next to me.

JOEL: Oh, bitter irony! Now he can hear her accent!
SERVO and CROW: NOOOOO!!

> "Yes. I suppose I did."
> But unto bigger problems. Like getting my kingdom back. I explained to
her
> what had happened in full detail. She brightened at the mention of the
> children, safe in KnotHole.

SERVO: Is your hole in a knot? Call our specialized technicians who can help!

> "Yehr, the chil'en, they'll be our rescuers!" She chortled.
> I felt suddenly weak. She was right. Because there was no way out.

ALL: BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

> I would have to wait for the children to grow old enough. I had to hope

> they wouldn't die.

JOEL: With the exception of Antoine, Geoffery St. John and Amy Rose.

> And I had to hope they'd discover the Void.
> I was going to be in here a long long time...

> The end!

SERVO: Hey! That wasn't too bad!

[SOL int.] The sounds of the ship are conspicuously absent, and everyone's
voice is muted.

CROW: hey, joel, what happened?
JOEL: the satelite must have become caught in the void. no one can hear us.
CROW: except us.
JOEL: right.
SERVO: and the fanfic was right. i'm going mad! mad! aaaaaa...[his voice

he's still moving his lips.
