CROW: And 15 blocks of flaming cabbage.
MIKE: [ beating his hands on his chest, sounding like a helicopter ] This is
      Mike "Get Me Out Of Here" Nelson with your Traffic Report. Today, Davey
      Crockett, the crazy fox, exploded a street in downtown Robotropolis. It
      is advised that you steer clear of this stretch until the swelling goes
      down and the large chunks of pavement fall back to Mobius.
BOTS: [ cheer ]
MIKE: Ow. Now my chest is sore and my hands are tired.


CROW: Let's get out of here.
PEARL: [ off screen ] One more page, guys.
CROW: Damn.

MIKE: That's what we keep saying! Why now?

 TOM: You need to get out more.
MIKE: True, but I don't think that's the point Charlie's trying to make.

CROW: [ Charles ] It was a good idea to shave off that 2-foot orange mustache.

>      "Oh, don't mind that, Chuck," Sonic injected.

 TOM: [ Sonic ] It's time for your relaxing medicine, Chuck.

MIKE: Crow! Yuck!!

CROW: Sounds like a law firm.
 TOM: Or a rock band.
CROW: No, more like heavy metal.
MIKE: Live, on this very stage, it's Smurky and the Bigzits!
BOTS: [ crowd cheering noises ]

> Besides, he only shows it when he trashes bots."

 ALL: Booooo!

>                                                   "Ahem!"  Sonic blushes,

CROW: Turning red, which with his blue, makes him purple.
MIKE: Davey mistakenly takes this expression to mean Sonic is choking and
      hilarity ensues!

>      "Yeah, Charles.

MIKE: In Charge.

 TOM: Not a very good act, but an act nonetheless.

CROW: I'll do it. He's nuts. There, I'm done.
 TOM: Where's the dirty part?
CROW: That'll be if I ever get to St. Louis with a mud launching catapult.

>      "Besides, look what he brought with him."

MIKE: A new car!!

 TOM: Just like that imaginary stein?
MIKE: 'Scuse me?
 TOM: In "Rangers of NIMH II". Two charactes "finished off" imaginary steins.
MIKE: Oh. Ew.
CROW: This is one case where perfect robotic memory is a *dis*advantage.

MIKE: [ Charles ] It *stinks*!

 TOM: Or a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle?

>                       Depends on who ya ask, if ya ast me?"

 ALL: Whuh?!
MIKE: OK, now the proofreader is done praying for his or her life and has
      started praying for cyanide.

>      "We've come here to give you Davey's special treatment, Uncle Chuck.
> It's the sure cure for what ails the roboticized."

 TOM: I suggest getting used to the fact that you're a robot.
CROW: Yeah! Being a robot is great! You can reconstruct yourself any way you
      like...
 TOM: You can install laser death missiles in your armpits...
CROW: You can play Doom II in your head while you're at a boring funeral...
MIKE: Of course, you have to balance that with the fact that anyone who has a
      remote control or an off switch effectively controls you.
CROW: Hm.
 TOM: I guess.

>      "Is . . . is it really?"

MIKE: [ Davey ] No, it's not. I just like getting your hopes up and then
      dashing them to the ground! Bwah hahahahaha!!

>      "Only if you want it to be, Sir."
>      "Please, Davey, call me Charles.  'Chuck' if you must.

 TOM: --elid.
CROW: So that's where the horrible stench is coming from.

>                                                              <Turns to

MIKE: The proofreader, begging for help, but he/she says, "No way, I'm moving
      to a place where Sonic the Hedgehog is banned."
CROW: Is there a place like that?
MIKE: I certainly hope so.

> others>  I'd love to get this treatment, folks, but

 TOM: [ Charles, whiny ] I don't wanna be cured!
CROW: He just said he *did*.
 TOM: I didn't mess up your mustache joke.

>                                                     we've got work to do.
> I'll get this along the way.  Please."

CROW: [ Charles ] Bite me.

>      Everybody sat down, even Tails, who just came in slowly.  Everybody
> notices.

 TOM: Except Sonic, and Sally, and also Davey, and Charles doesn't notice
      either, and Rotor, and Bunnie, and Antoine, and, well, I guess even
      Tails wasn't paying attention, or else he wouldn't have walked into that
      column there.
MIKE: Maybe that's why he came in slowly.

>           "Sonic," Davey whispers, "Tails looks a little down."  "Yo, rocket

MIKE: [ laughing ] What?!
CROW: Full time of part time? Sheesh!

>      "As you know, Princess, we've got two mysteries to solve.  The first of

 TOM: Why does this fanfic even EXIST?!

>          Robotnik coming back so soon.  I've figured that someone that evil

MIKE: Would write a fanfic just like this one.

CROW: Now an exploding Roboticizer #2, that's another story.

>      "Yeah, I wonder what supernatural place he was in, and how he came

 TOM: Plot Contrivance Theater screws up plans again.
MIKE: Well, you know the saying about best-laid plans.
CROW: [ Beavis ] Laid? Heh-heh-heh...
MIKE: Don't you start again.

>      "Well, Heaven wouldn't take him.

CROW: Dave knows this sort of thing from experience.

>                                        Maybe Hell got terrified of him
> taking over.  So, they sent him back!"

CROW: Yeah, they sent him to a *real* Hell!

>                                         Everybody laughs.

MIKE: Crow's joke wasn't that funny.
CROW: Yes it was.

>                                                            "Good one, Dave."

 TOM: It's been done.

>      "We've also got this mystery about

MIKE: Why Sonic the Hedgehog? Why why why *why* WHY Sonic the Hedgehog
      already?!

>                                         this silverily

CROW: Huh? Is Dave trying to turn that into an adverb?
 TOM: Oh, I know! It's "silver lily"!
MIKE: Wow. What a beautiful flower.

>                                                        goo

MIKE: Hm. Goo doesn't make a very pretty flower.

CROW: Eeewwww!!
MIKE: Oh, too bad. Packbell broke up with his *goo*friend! [ laughing ]

>              as of late.  I didn't raise a fuss

 TOM: [ Charles ] Even though I knew *exactly* where the four robots were the
      minute I came in!

>                                                 because the Great Jungle

CROW: [ Charles ] Told me not to worry.

> that accursed android was dumping it in was eating it and growing.

 TOM: [ Great Jungle ] Mmm boy, that's good goo!

>                                                                     However,

MIKE: Twin brother and sister?
 TOM: Married?
CROW: Twin brother and sister and married?
 TOM: Ew!

>      "What do you mean Zir Charlez?"

MIKE: Zo zay you're at a bar, and zurprizingly there'z no beer.
BOTS: Aaaaaaaaahhh!!!

>      "Don't know yet, Antoine.  That's why I called for this two-week

CROW: [ Charles ] We're going to find out whether or not Bill Clinton is
      guilty once and for all!

 TOM: Beautiful purple bridesmaid dresses. Except Sally.
MIKE: What about Sally?
 TOM: She gets a Barney T-shirt.
MIKE, CROW: Aaaaahhh!!

MIKE: Monopoly.
 TOM: Magic: the Gathering.
CROW: Chess.
MIKE: Hearts.
 TOM: Solitaire, probably.
CROW: Good one!

>           Davey, you're with me.  We can both jack into cyberspace.

 TOM: [ Charles ] We'll E-mail your fanfics to Robotnik, and when his brain
      turns to mush, we'll rush in...

MIKE: But Were Afraid to Ask.

CROW: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!! Hallways!! Hundreds and hundreds of hallways!!
MIKE: Wha?

MIKE: Ah.

CROW: Let's shall.

 TOM: Hey, I get it now! These robots are actually a parallel to the situation
      before the Civil War!
CROW: No, robots are just cool.

>      "Then blame Robotnik, who uses the machine for evil, not the machine

CROW: Robotnik uses the machine for evil, but he doesn't use the machine
      itself?
MIKE: No, Robotnik uses the machine for evil, but the machine doesn't use the
      machine for evil.
CROW: That didn't help much.
MIKE: Anything else I can clear up?

 TOM: No it doesn't. It's just a string of ONES and ZEROS!!

 TOM: Geez, this guy's got an ego the size of Mount Rushmore!
CROW: Y'know, they blew up Abraham Lincoln's face on Mount Rushmore. I think
      they replaced it with some 20-year-old author's face.
MIKE, TOM: [ chuckle ]

CROW: I am Cornholio of Borg. You will... give me TP for my assimilated

 TOM: I am Mork of Borg. Nanoo, nanoo! You will be assimilated, as soon as I
      report to Orson.

CROW: [ Davey ] I just downloaded every "Feet of Clay" comic into my brain at

 TOM: [ Davey ] I finally turned around.

CROW: [ Davey ] Inside the roboticizer. Where do you think?!
