(Mike, Tom, Crow and Gypsy are all visible)

Mike: Hi everybody, welcome to the Satellite of Love. Mike Nelson here,
and me and my robot pals were just sitting around discussing what
we'd do if we had absolute power. Crow?

Crow: I'd decide who lives and who dies.

Servo: Yeah, we know that, Crow, but what else?

Crow: Well... Let's see. I'd make Dr. Forrester bring me RAMchips every
15 minutes, I'd make Frank wash my underoos and I'd dance the Hokey
Pokey, and I'd turn myself about.

Mike: That it?

Crow: Hey, that's what it's all about.

Mike: Okay. I'd leave the Satellite, of course. I'd exact revenge on Dr.
Forrester, of course, and then, after settling into a palacial
mansion in the Bahamas, I'd embark on a program of self-improvement
and good works.

Servo: Oh, come off it, Nelson. What would you really do?

Crow: Yeah!

Mike: Okay, you got me. I didn't want to admit it but...

Servo: Come on.

Mike Well... I'd... [with impish glee] I'd give Kathy Ireland a new
voice and make her walk around my house in her bikini.

Gypsy: Heeeyyy!

Servo: Pretty sleazy, Nelson

Mike: Yeah, I guess it is. Okay, Tom, what would you do?

Servo: I would expand my conciousness until it encompassed the entire
universe. Then, being omnicient, I would proceed to mete out
justice to all of the life entities in existence. The good would
receive total inner peace and serenity, while those that displease
me would be condemned for all eternity to dwell in the abode of
pain and suffering, for I Say Unto You [Tom's voice increases in
volume, with plenty of reverb] THAT THE DAY OF THE GREAT SERVO SHALL
COME, AND ALL WHO DO NOT HEED MY WORD SHALL BE CAST INTO THE PIT
OF THE DOOMED AND...And...and forced to watch _Manos_ or something...

Mike: Remind me to rip Revelations out of your Bible. How about you, Gypsy?
What would you do?

Gypsy: I already have absolute power.

Mike: You do?

Gypsy: Yeah. Watch.

(All the lights go out on the SOL, except for the commercial sign light, which
begins to blink)

Magic Voice: Commercial sign in 5...4...3... Commercial sign now.


*********************Commericals Galore. Bleah!!*****************************


<SOL - Lights are still out>

Mike: C'mon, Gypsy, turn the life support back on.

Crow and Tom: Yeah, c'mon!

Gypsy: Say it again!

Crow: Awww, do we have to?

Gypsy: You do if Mike wants to breathe.

Crow, Tom and Mike: (chanting) All hail Gypsy, Queen of the Satellite.

Gypsy: I can't *heeeaaar* you!

C,T & M: (louder) All hail Gypsy, Queen of the Satellite!

(Mad's light begins to blink)

Mike: Hey! Callard and Bowser are calling.

<Deep 13>

(Dr. Forrester and T.V.'s Frank are standing side by side with cat-that-ate-
the-canary grins on their faces)

Dr. F: Helllooo, Micky. Hello Mousekateers. Well, I think the experiments
are going very well indeed! I've only had you up there twelve weeks
and already you're worshiping a vacuum cleaner. Outstanding!

Seeing as how you're... indisposed, we'll do our invention exchange
first. Frank?

Frank: Thanks, Clay. Well, Mike, our invention exchange this week is based
on the idea that there isn't enough angst and despair in the world.
It's the Existentiamatic, and it's based on the very same psychetronic
technology you'll be reading about in this week's experiment.

Dr. F.: That's right, Frank.

(Camera pulls back to reveal a box with a large meat-grinder looking device
on the top, and a cord, connecting it to a very cheezy looking raygun.
Emblazoned across the side are the Deep 13 logo and the word
"Existentiamatic".)

Dr.F.: It's simple, really. First, you put a book by say, Sartre or Camus
into the hopper.

(He shoves a book into the grinder attachment while Frank turns the crank.)

Dr.F.: Then it's just point and shoot.

(Points the raygun at Frank.)

SFX: nnnnnnnnnnndkdkdknnnnnndkdkdknnnnnnndkdkdknnnnnn...

Dr.F.: How are you feeling, Frank?

Frank: A little down, actually.

Dr.F.: (suppressing a giggle and trying to sound concerned) Really?

Frank: Yeah, I mean, what's the point?

Dr.F.: (barely containing himself) The point?

Frank: Yeah. I mean, we're all just hurtling through the void, staring into
the abyss, watching Lippert films...

(Frank begins to wander off)

Dr.F.: Ummmm, where are you going, Frank?

Frank: To kill myself.

(Dr. F. laughs silently to himself as Frank walks off camera.)

Dr.F.: You know, sometimes it really is just too easy. Back up to you.

(A jet of blood shoots in from offscreen)

<SOL>

(Lights are back on. Mike and the 'bots are staring into the camera, appalled.)

Servo: That... that's horrible!

Mike: It sure is! It's a good thing I've invented this.

(Mike holds up a football helmet wrapped in tinfoil with an antenna on the top)

Mike: It's the Happy Helmet. See? You just put on the helmet, and then you
use the remote control...

Servo: Hold it, Nelson!

Mike: What?

Servo: You didn't invent that.

Mike: Sure I did. It's the Happy Helmet...

Servo: You stole that from the Ren and Stimpy Show.

Mike: No I didn't. I invented it.

Crow: I'm with Tom, Nelson. I definitly saw that on Ren and Stimpy.

Servo: I never thought I'd live to see the day when Mike Nelson is
plaigerising invention exchanges.

Mike: Look, guys, I...

<Deep 13>

(Dr.F. is now covered with Frank's blood, which is still squirting in from
offscreen)

Dr.F.: Get with it, Nelson. The inventions have to be original.

Your experiment today is another bit of babble from alt.conspiracy.
It's an unpleasant little number reprinted from an "underground"
Australian magazine by Glenda Stocks, the Sandy Frank of a.c.
I hope you hate it as much as I hate you.

All: Oh no! We got post sign!

Crow: Mike, what's a "life death ray"?

Mike: I dunno.

Servo: Are there fake life death rays?

Mike: I dunno.

Crow: Some help you are.

Mike: Look, I just work here, okay?


>By JOE VIALLS

>There is very strong circumstantial evidence


Servo: Nothing that would hold up in court, mind you. Nothing physical,
not even any witnesses. Nevertheless, there is *very* strong
circumstantial evidence...

Mike: ...And if not, has it fallen into the sinister hands of
Boris Badinov and Natasia Fatale? And if so, do they intend
to use it to cheat Rocky and Bullwinkle out of their last
nugget of upsidaisium? Find out in our next exciting episode
"Psychetronic Shack" or "Insane in the Brisbane".

Crow: The Soviets had talking arms?

Crow: Maybe they should get Dr. Forrester to help. He doesn't seem
to have a problem with it.

Mike: Don't even *joke* about that!

Mike: Donut.

film festival.

Crow: If I had a project called "Sleeping Beauty" I'd keep it a
secret, too.

Servo: Yeah? So what? TV's Frank made a gnu retch non stop for a week once.
