Subject: MiSTied: Shadow Stalker
Date: Tue, 1 Feb 1994 17:08:37 GMT
OK, everybody--this is my first MiSTing on the Net, so I want lots o' feedback.
Tell me what you like and hate. Please send all comments to
dant@austin.ibm.com.

[ <SOL> Crow and Tomservo are on the bridge when Mike comes running in with a
large box. ]
MIKE: Hey guys! You'll never believe what I found! It's a--
[ The light begins blinking. ]
CROW: Hey, Mike--Dennis and Bill are calling.
MIKE: But I'm finally--oh, let 'em watch. [ Hits the button. ]
[ <DEEP 13> Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank are standing in front of a
large-screen TV with a lime green shoe box labeled "Mento-Matic" attached to
the side. ]
DR. F: I hope you didn't get your hopes up for this week's invention exchange,
Surface Dweller, because you're going to lose.
MIKE: I don't care, because I'm finally FREE! I just found this!
[ He turns the box around so everyone can see the word "Hamdingers" printed on
the side. Crow gasps. ]
DR.F: Yes, whatever. Just get ready for this. Show 'em, Frank.
[ Frank turns on the television. The news is on. ]
DR. F: Our invention is based on the idea that there is simply too much useful
programming on TV. What people really need is garish commercials, and
more of them.
[ Peter Jennings is cut off in mid-sentence and replaced by a Fabio wannabe
sliding through a car, popping a Mentos in his mouth. ]
DR. F: You see, the Mento-Matic monitors Comedy Central all the time, no
matter what channel you're watching. Any time a commercial appears on
CC, the Mento-Matic immediately changes channels so you can watch it.
No more of that sticky "good" stuff.
[ Mike ignores him, ripping open the box and dumping out the contents. A pile
of tiny sandwiches, each individually wrapped in plastic, comes out. ]
MIKE: Oh, no--these really *are* Hamdingers. Eeww, they're all sticky and--
yikes! They still haven't reached their expiration date, even after
all these years. . . .
[ He holds one up by the corner, as if holding a dead rat. ]
DR. F: [ Stares at Mike for a while. ] Right. If that's your escape plan,
Flyboy, then go for it. Your experiment this week is a particularly
ugly piece of fluff from the monsters and magic genre. It's called
"Shadow Stalker," and I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Send in the darkness
and evil, Frank.
[ Frank pushes the button. On board the SOL, lights start flashing and
everything shakes. A small hole next to the "movie sign" light opens up and
starts spitting cotton balls. ]
MIKE: Oh, no! We've got fluff sign!

TOM: I though stalking was illegal.

MIKE: So the drawbridge is metal and the ground is wood?
TOM: No, the drawbridge is wood and the ground is metal.

CROW: But it wasn't a rock; it was--Rock Lobster!
> He then chants a few mystic words and cups his hands together.
> A ball of shadowy blackness appears in his hand.
TOM: Wait a minute. This black-robed guy's in a dark rip in the deepest
darkest shadows under a dark citadel during a dark time, and we're
supposed to be able to SEE a ball of shadowy blackness? Give me a
break! We're blind already!

MIKE: Who was that masked man?
TOM: You could see him well enough to know he had a mask? Anyway, it must
have been Darkman.

CROW: His pale undead *what*?
MIKE: Face? Hands? Lips?
TOM: Earlobes? Appendix? Tongue?
CROW: Hinder?

> "I have discovered something thru my resources," Grandmaster

> "Welll, what did you find!," snarles Bloodclaw.
CROW: [ in little-old-lady voice ] Well, if you take those little Vienna
sausages, and you boil them in beer for about half an hour, they come
out so tender and good, and--
MIKE: Crow, don't even joke about Vienna sausages. [ shudders ]

TOM: So, that's all he found, huh?
CROW: Yep, pretty much.
> "This isn't good enough!, the GrandLord won't be pleased with

MIKE: Will you please stop putting commas everywhere?
TOM: Mike, I've got a feeling that punctuation isn't this guy's strong suit.
CROW: *Writing* isn't this guy's strong suit.

MIKE: Oh shoot--the cops! Run! Hide the keg!

CROW: Hey! No fair! We already did Part Two!
MIKE: No, see, this is "Part-Two (2)."
TOM: What? Part Two the Second? Part Two squared? Part Two also?
CROW: Let's just hope Part Two is better than Part Two was.

CROW: Is it just me, or is anybody else having a hard time picturing
this . . . animal-creature . . . thing.
TOM: It's the light all of a sudden. Give your eyes a couple of sentences
to adjust to it.

CROW: Ah, I can see now! It's a unicorn. You were right, Servo.

TOM: Yep, that oughta do it.
> "A storm giant....?", she saids to herself. "Why?"
MIKE: Why not?
CROW: Why this scene? Why so many Part Twos?
TOM: Why do we keep running into characters we've never seen before?
MIKE: Why won't Pirscilla leave? Will Peggy realize that Mary loves John?
And what about Roger?
> She dies on the cool forest floor.
CROW: Hey, dude, this forest floor is really cool! Whoo!

TOM: Well, at least we finally got out of Part Two.
CROW: I wonder how many Part Threes there will be.

MIKE: If shadows can be known to have what? Air? I think I can buy that.

TOM: Roll over! Play dead!
CROW: Fetch! Heel! Sick 'em!

MIKE: Oh, yuck! Now he's using it to swab out a giant ear!
CROW: Eewww. . . .

CROW: Thank God! There for a minute, I thought we were only going to get
one Part Four.
TOM: Yeah, that was a real close one, there. Sheesh.
> One bright morning,
ALL: Yaay! Daylight!
> inside an inn's room, in a fairly normal town...
CROW: In an average house, with an average wife.
TOM: And you may ask yourself, "Why did he write this?"
> "I heard plenty of noise from the dogs outside last night Kila, were

> He knows people usually look strangely at him, as it isn't an
> everyday event that somebody with a lynx walks into town, "talking" with it.
MIKE: No sense being coy about it; he really is talking.
CROW: It's sad, really. Extended light deprivation has finally driven him
starkers.
> Or for that matter that a cat should be chasing away dogs instead of the other

> Taaka gathers all his stuff, hangs his faithful longsword on his belt,
TOM: . . . tosses his traitorous longsword on the floor . . .
> then ever so carefully hangs his ten daggers around his waist. He then dons

> fact that he is carrying ten daggers. Why look for trouble.
MIKE: Why not? It's a free country.
TOM: [ monotone ] Why use a question mark.
CROW: [ monotone ] Yeah, who really cares.
> Taaka takes a little gold neckchain with a ring on it and puts it
> around his neck.
> "This little thing has saved me plenty of times, hasen't it Kila?," he
> murmurs while he finishes puttingng everything in his backpack. Taaka then
> walks down stairs.
TOM: [ sarcastic voice ] Ooh, the subtlety. Notice the clever way he lets
us know there's something special about the ring without bothering to
ACTUALLY TELL US WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!
MIKE: Hey, take it easy, Servo.
TOM: [ sobbing ] Oh, Mike, I just can't take it anymore. So many scenes
and characters and none of it has anything to do with anything else
and the darkness--THE DARKNESS! [ sobs some more ]
MIKE: Come on, Honey, pull yourself together. It's light in this scene, at
least. Enjoy it while you can.
TOM: Oh, I'll try. But the light better hold out. . . .
> "Two breakfasts," he tells the bartender.
CROW: Whoa! Starting *early* today, aren't you?
> "Dat cat ain't gonna to eat on the table, it ain't allowed"
CROW: No, he's going to drink. Now hurry up with those martinis.
> "You better allow it, or I'll have to let her prance into your
> kitchen and let her help herself, free of charge."
> The bartender looks at Kila, who has a certain malicious grin on her

> "I'd better bring two rations right now, did you see what she did to
> the dogs last night?"
> Taaka left two silver coins on the table, pulled his cloak over his
> head and went out to his horse.
> "C'mon Kila, jump! That's it"
MIKE: [ as horse ] My name's Trigger, not Kila. And I don't jump, either.
> His horse had already grown accustomed to the cat riding behind the
> boy, in fact, he had fashioned a leather mat
TOM: Say, that's pretty creative, for a horse. How'd he stitch it with no
fingers or anything?
> where she could hold on tight
> without hurting the horse; it's a rather strange sight and he knows that
> people stare at him alot when he's around, but it only makes him smile to
> himself.
MIKE: Secure in the knowledge that he's better than them.
> Already out of town,
TOM: Wow! That was fast--this horse is *really* impressive.
CROW: Yeah, he made it that fast by jumping.
> Taaka is peacefully riding down a lonely
> road when a little boy comes running up to him.
> "Sir!, Sir! Help us!"
ALL: A plot point! Hooray!
> "What the...", Taaka turns his horse around and sees the little boy,
> about eight years old, running toward him.
> "What's wrong?", he asks.
MIKE: [ as boy ] It's just that you keep putting commas in these really
weird places.
> "Four bad men are in my house, and my father is very hurt, my mom
> pulled him into the cellar so they wouldn't hurt him any more. You have to
> help us."
> Taaka dismounts his horse and gives it to the boy.
CROW: Whoa! Suddenly we're in a NAMBLA pamphlet!
MIKE: The horse, Crow. He gives the *horse* to the boy.
CROW: Oh.
> "Here, keep the horse with you, don't follow me, because it is very
> dangerous and I don't want you to get into trouble too."
MIKE: And remember: there's nothing a comma can't do.
> He then walked over
> to a small span of trees, abnormally dark and dense for such a little area.
TOM: No! Arrgh!
> Kila stalked silently behind him at a safe distance to watch for ambushes.
> "Hmm.. It's quite dark, I wonder, it look good for an ambush..," he
CROW: This is a good place for a Stick-Up!
TOM: This whole *thing* is a good place for a Stick-Up.
> barely finished saying that when suddenly.
MIKE: . . . the sentence ended.
> "Argh!! My eyes! HEEELPP!! Take this beast away from me!,"
MIKE: [ as victim ] And this comma, too!
> as Kila
> appeared from behind a tree with blood on her claws and teeth.
> "It cost him dearly to follow the boy, didn't it?," he said with a
> smile on his face, "Thanks Kila"
TOM: Now let's move on to the next bit without even bothering to look at
this guy or find out why he wanted to attack me.
> "Look, I can see the house, I suppose thet the other's are inside,
CROW: The other's *what*?
> I
> think we should go around the house, or charge inside, or...,"
MIKE: . . . put another comma where it doesn't belong, or . . .
> a women's voice
TOM: "*A* women?" Doesn't "women" kind of imply that there's more than one?
> suddenly sends a shout into the air.
> "No time to think, run Kila!"
MIKE: Now why would some disembodied women's voices shout that?
> Running as fast as he could, he bashes the door clean off the hinges,
> longsword in one hand, dagger in the other.
CROW: Avon calling!
> "I was waiting for you, you fool!," a voice said from beside the
> entrance, when suddenly Kila jumped out of nowhere on to the attacker's head,
MIKE: Wait--he's attacking the house, right? So the cat jumped on to her
owner's head?
> tearing into the man's neck and eyes with her claws and teeth.
> "One down, now it's your turn," he said
MIKE: Wow, this guy's pretty cool about having his neck and eyes ripped
apart.

TOM: Excuse me, but could you possible be a little more vague here?

CROW: Not to mention his bladder.

MIKE: I'd think it'd be pretty hard to plunge a blade into somebody while
you were trying to stand up, but then, that's just me.
> with a flick of his left

TOM: Hai-keeba!
> None remained alive,
MIKE: You mean he killed himself, the little boy, *and* the parents with
that one shot?

ALL: Or this story.

> "WHat is that?," she said looking at Kila.
MIKE: It's a capital H. I know it doesn't really belong there, but I was
in a quirky mood.
> "*She* is Kila, she's my companion,
CROW: My friend and lover.
MIKE: Crow!

TOM: [ in a tired monotone ] Oh. How cold. Gosh, he's tough.
> It was now well into the afternoon.
MIKE: Time flies when you're kicking ass. . . .

> "You're welcome to stay for a few day if you want to," the boy's mom
> told Taaka.
> "Yes! Please stay!," said the little boy.
> Taaka got down so as to be the same height as the boy and said,
> "Sorry, I can't, I have to go to the next town to look for a job, besides,
> Kila here would get restless in a few days if she doesn't get any dogs to

> "Will you come back later then?"
> "Maybe, some day we'll meet again, ok?"
> "Ok.. But when I'm older you'll have to teach me to use swords and

TOM: You bet I will, you little loud-mouthed. . . .
> "Ok, I promise..," he said as he took the boys arm and saluted him as

> Then he got up and went outside to his horse.
> "It's your job to take care of your mother until your father's well,
> ok? "
> "Ok," said the boy as he waved good-bye to Taaka.
>
> After several hours of riding Taaka
CROW: Someone's *riding* him?
MIKE: No, I think he just ran out of commas earlier, and now he doesn't have
any left to use when he needs them.

MIKE: What word?
CROW: "Were."

ALL: OUTTA HERE!

[ <SOL> Mike and Crow are on the bridge, shielding their eyes and squinting. ]
CROW: Owie! Normal light hurts my eyes now.
MIKE: I know what you mean. It's gonna take me a while to recover from that.
[ looks around ] Hey--where's Tom?
[ Tom Servo hover-zooms in wearing a pair of dark sunglasses. ]
TOM: [ singing ] Do de do doo . . . Oh, hi, guys! You know, I think I
finally got used to the dark. Anyway, these shades are *so*cool*.
MIKE: [ looking up ] What do you think, Sirs?
[ <Deep 13> Frank, wearing clothes from JC Penny's, is in front of the TV,
sitting on a pile of Mentos and Secret deoderant sticks, babbling. ]
FRANK: 1-800-collect! Sprint! Call everybody! Right now!
DR. F: Excuse me, Nelson, but Frank's taken a lethal dose of Comedy Central
advertising. He's finally snapped.
[ Frank yells incoherently for a moment, then begins munching sticks of Secret
and rubbing Mentos under his armpits. ]
FRANK: [ starting to cry ] I want to buy more! I must consume!
DR. F: It looks like I'll be busy cleaning up until next week, Nelson, so
you've got some time to get ready for that invention exchange you owe
me. [ glances at Frank ] Guess I'll have to do things myself for a
while. [ He pushes the button. ]
