[SOL]
[Mike and Crow are hiding behind the desk. Both are wearing helments. Mike
has a pistol, Crow has a bazooka. Mike looks up to Cambot.]
MIKE:[quietly] Oh! Hi everybody. As you well know, the craze of the computer
world is the virtual combat game, Doom II. Well the bots came to me
with an idea of playing it real life, except of course we're using fake
weapons that the bots found... [To Crow.] Crow.. these weapons ARE
fake, aren't they?
CROW:[quietly] Yes, they're safe.
MIKE:[same] By the way, you never told me where you found them.
CROW:[same] I found them in a box marked "IN CASE OF ALIEN ATTACK".
MIKE: Oh.. [gives a confused look.] Hey, isn't that Servo, over there?
[Cambot moves backwards and turns left to get Tom into the screen, who is
holding a shotgun.]
CROW: Why yes it is... You dIE JOE!!! [Crow fires the bazooka.]
BOOM!! [Servo explodes. Pieces of him fly everywhere. Cambot returns to the
normal view.]]
CROW: [normal voice] Oops. That wasn't supposed to happen.
GYPSY:[off-screen] HI-KEEBA! [Sound of a chainsaw running.]
MIKE: GYPSY! NO, DON'T!
[Gypsy comes on screen with a chainsaw in her mouth, charges Crow, both go
behind desk off-screen. Crow's arm flies up in the air. Commercial sign
light flashes.]
GYPSY: Ut Oh, I broke him. [Chainsaw stops.]
MIKE: Oh BOY... We'll be right back..[A few pieces of Servo fall on the
desk.] I HOPE. [Mike taps commercial sign light.]
[Commercials]
[Tom's parts are scattered on the table. Crow is wearing an arm bandage, as
well as other bandages. Mike and Gypsy are the only ones unharmed. Mike is
looking at a sheet of paper.]
CROW: Maybe that WASN'T such a good idea, after all...
GYPSY: Uh huh.
MIKE: Yeah, well.. It's a good thing that the "other guy" left schematics
of you bots.
CROW: But, you don't know how to fix robots.
MIKE:[trying to read.] I'm learning, I'm LEARNING. [Mads light flashes.]
CROW: Uh.. the Mad Scientists are calling.
MIKE: [Sigh] Ok. Hi Sirs, go ahead while I try to patch up Tom. [Taps Mads
light.]
TOM:[his mouthpiece] I'll need more than just a patch up.
[D13]
DR.F: Ah, Mitch Nielson.. I see your bots are blowing up, more and more
everyday.. eh? There may be hope for you after all... Ahem. On with
today's experiment. Remember Deep Hurting??
[SOL]
[Parts of Tom are together, but not all of him.]
MIKE: Actually, no I don't.
CROW: I do.
[D13]
DR.F: Remember Fire Maidens From Outer Space?? Remember Manos??
[SOL]
[Tom is together halfway.]
MIKE: No... and... no.
TOM: We do, Mike. Now would ya finish putting me together, already?
[D13]
DR.F: Remember Hypno Helio Static Stasis, Mike? Remember Wild World of
Batwoman??? Remember..
[Frank walks on screen.]
FRANK:[To Dr.F] Uh Clay, I think they get the point.
DR.F: Oh. Yes, of course Frank. This week's experiment is all of those
movies combined and multiplied three times!! Yes! Three posts equal
three times the terror. The small size of these three posts don't
make up for the utter horror.. the complete LUNACY that reaks in
all three posts! All three posts will have you lurching in the aisles.
[evil chuckle] They will have you BEGGING for mercy. [evil laugh]
These posts will have you ripping your neighbors arms out and slapping
yourself with them.. LITERALLY! Send'em the posts, Frank! [Evil Laugh]
FRANK:[quietly to screen] Be very afraid. [Frank pushes the button.]
[SOL]
[Lights flashing, etc..]
TOM: I don't like the sound of this, and Mike.. Why is my engine block fixed
to my head?
MIKE: Dooohhh.. I'll fix it on the way to the theater... COME ON!!
ALL: WE'VE GOT POST SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGN!!!!!!!!

MIKE: Okay guys.. take a deep breath. [Everybody takes a deep breath.]
TOM: Umm.. Mike, my head?
MIKE: Oh, sorry. [Mike takes Tom's engine block off of his head and sticks
it on his chest.
TOM: Thank you.

MIKE: Did you say something, Tom?
TOM: Huh? OH! Uh.. No, nope! Didn't say a word! Hehehe..

something.]
TOM:[To himself] Okay.. connect these two wires... hook up with the brain..
mind control... Ah, there! [Crow walks in.]
CROW: Oh, hi Tom...[looks at Mike.] HUH! WHAT ARE YOU DOING???
TOM:[Startled] AH! Oh! Uhhh.. nothing.. Hehe.. Just a little experiment.
CROW: Oohhh. Let me see. [Crow leans to look at the back of Mike.] Oh, I see
now.. HEY! THAT'S A MICRO-CH...[We see Tom hit Crow on the head with
a hammer. Crow falls down.]
