Transcript
{Tampo, Brody and Stlunko, still shrunken, are floating/walking/rolling down a hall.}
TAMPO: Man, this place is so different from this low view!
BRODY: Yeah. Where's that experiment room?
STLUNKO: I have the map of this building downloaded. We are not lost.
TAMPO: Good, good. Let's-
{Suddenly a small explosion is heard, following by the sould of electicity zapping.}
TAMPO: What was that?
STLUNKO: It came from the computer room.
BRODY: What now?
{The three move quickly down the hall. Cut to the computer room. There is a Chorch behind the SuperComputer; he is barely obscured by it. He is working on the wires behind the SuperCom. Between intervals, small pops, fizzes and electrical flashes occur. Tampo, Brody and Stlunko walk in, dwarfed by the huge SuperCom.}
TAMPO: What's happening in here?!
CHORCH: Oh! {flies out from behind SuperCom, faces trio} Hello, tiny masters. {suppresses chuckle}
TAMPO: What are you doing?
CHORCH: Oh, I was- {suppresses chuckle} I was- {suppresses chuckle} I was just- {bursts out laughing}
BRODY: ...okay.
TAMPO: What is it, stupid little minion?
CHORCH: Whoo... {calms down} I'm sorry. {makes a beeping sound} Oops, it seems my personality chip was turned on extra high for some reason. It's okay now, I turned it off.
BRODY: Good.
TAMPO: Now, what were you doing to the SuperCom?
CHORCH: Nothing, nothing. My vision returned so I decided to rush back here to finish my routine mantainance.
TAMPO: Oh, okay. Then you can just-
{Suddenly a bunch of sparks and explosions come from the back of the SuperCom. The SuperCom's screen fizzes and blinks, and a bunch of random pop-ups appear all over the screen, and more keep on appearing.}
TAMPO: What did you do to the SuperCom?!
CHORCH: Oops. I guess I must still be recovering from that fader.
BRODY: The SuperCom!
TAMPO: Stlunko, can you fix it?
STLUNKO: Yes. {sends one of his hands, which is the same size as the Chorch's claw, behind the SuperCom. It pulls some wires or something, because there is a small electrical flash and then the SuperCom turns back to normal, although flooded with pop-ups.}
CHORCH: I'll be going now. Bye! {zips away}
TAMPO: Hey, come ba-! Oh, nevermind. Okay, SuperCom. Close all pop-ups.
{The pop-ups stop closing at a rate of about ten pop-ups a second. However, because there are so many, progress is mediocre.}
BRODY: Man, there has to be a million of them up there.
{The three watch the screen.}
TAMPO: Yep. Stupid Chorch.
STLUNKO: Stop!
{The pop-up deletion stops almost instantly.}
BRODY: Huh? What was that for?
STLUNKO: I saw a pop-up of potential interest. SuperCom, undo the deletion of those last four pop-ups.
{Four pop-ups appear onscreen. The top one is Stinkoman's Inbox.}
TAMPO: Woah. Stinkoman's email!
BRODY: Awesome. That glitch must have opened it somehow, I guess.
TAMPO: Hmm... I wonder if there's anything useful in this thing.
{Tampo reads the inbox outloud.}

]SECRET PLANS
BRODY: Ooh, secret plans.
TAMPO: Well, while we're here...
{The SuperCom opens the "SECRET PLANS" email and reads it.}
Dear Stinkoman
Do you remember the secret plans? Well,
we're going to discuss it at secret place
in that tree that has a strange symbol on
it, and don't forget to twist the twig.
I'm just making sure you remembered.
Hoping this isn't intercepted
Good Chorch Commader 20
BRODY: What is this?
TAMPO: It seems like someone is betraying us!
STLUNKO: Chorch Commander #20. The lowest of all of our twenty commanders.
TAMPO: Still, he has it much better than many of our lower minions. Why would he betray us?
BRODY: Should we find out?
TAMPO: Yes, this is important. I have a plan. Okay, now, this email needs to be deleted.
{The SuperCom deletes the email.}
TAMPO: Good. Now all these pop-ups need to be closed while we go to infiltrate this discussion.
{The pop-ups start closing again at the previous rate of ten pop-ups a second.}
BRODY: So the first thing we'll do is get back to our normal sizes, right?
TAMPO: Actually, only me and Stlunko will return to normal.
STLUNKO: I think I know what your plan is. Let us go to the experiment room.
BRODY: What? I have to stay small?
TAMPO: I'll explain. Now follow me.
{The three leave the Computer Room. The screen fades to black.}
{Cut a field. Tampo, Brody and Stlunko are looking around for the aforementioned tree. Brody is small, while the others are normal sized. Stlunko is holding some kind of laser gun-like object.}
TAMPO: Okay... where is it?
BRODY: {pointing towards the camera} Hey, is that it?
{Camera shifts to reveal a large, thick tree. The trio hurry to it.}
TAMPO: Yep, this is it alright.
BRODY: How do you know?
TAMPO: Here's the strange symbol.
{Tampo floats out of the way to reveal a rather small picture carved onto the wood. It looks like a brain being cut in half by a lightning bolt.}
BRODY: Heh.
STLUNKO: Okay, Brody. Let us begin the second phase of our plan.
{Stlunko aims the laser gun-like object at Brody.}
STLUNKO: This devise will cloak you with advanced holographic technology to make you look like Stinkoman. It also will emit a sound-bending forcefield around you to change your voice to match.
BRODY: Okay.
{Stlunko shoots Brody with it and there is a flash of light. When it fades, Brody looks exactly like Stinkoman.}
BRODY: {with Stinkoman's voice} Hey, I'm Stinkoman. {looks around} Now what?
TAMPO: Well, the email said to twist the twig... so... hey, look. There's a lone twig. Try it.
BRODY: Alright...
{Brody walks up to it and twists it, causing a door to open in the tree's base. It is too dark to see inside.}
BRODY: I'll go in and see if I can find out anything. What will you guys do?
STLUNKO: We only deleted a reminder email. Stinkoman still probably got a message earlier.
TAMPO: So we'll wait here to stop him if he tries entering.
BRODY: Okay. {runs into the tree with the door closing behind him}
STINKOMAN: {offscreen} Hey, big brain boy!
{Stinkoman jumps from offscreen near Tampo and Stlunko.}
STINKOMAN: I was going to do something with this tree, but I think challenging you will be much more of a challenge.
STLUNKO: We have been expecting you.
TAMPO: Bring it on, Stinkoman!
{The screen fades to black before another one makes a move. It fades back to the inside of the tree. There is a rather large table with a Chorch on one side. He is wearing a commander's hat and some badges. There's a door in the wall opposite to him, through which Brody, disguised as Stinkoman, walks through.}
CHORCH COMMANDER: Hello, Stinkoman. I think you know why we're here.
BRODY: {laughs, little mushroom-air blasts appear} Of course I do! To plan Tampo's demise, right?
CHORCH COMMANDER: Yes, that is entirely correct. Now do you know the plan?
BRODY: Uh... no, not exactly. Can you remind me?
CHORCH COMMANDER: Okay, listen. I know Tampo is too strong for either of us to kill him alone.
BRODY: Waaaaiiit a second! Why should I want to kill the big fat brain guy?
CHORCH COMMANDER: Ugh... don't you remember the deal we made? You help me and I'll help you with all the money you'll need.
BRODY: Oh, right. {laughs} So what about Brody and Stlunko? What will we do with them?
CHORCH COMMANDER: Eh, we'll probably get them next. But anyway, here's what we need to do: I'll lure Tampo all by himself into the dark forest near Florg City on a false lead, and then when he's in the dark, you'll duece him right in that red lower section.
BRODY: So I'll knock him out and then we'll kill him when he's KO'd? Sounds like a plan to me!
CHORCH COMMANDER: Good, good.
BRODY: But why would you want to betray your master?
CHORCH COMMANDER: Why would you care?
BRODY: Uhhh...
CHORCH COMMANDER: Money and power, of course!
BRODY: Oh.
CHORCH COMMANDER: So when should we start? Is Wednesday good for you?
BRODY: Hmm... maybe. Whoo-wah? {jumps sideways to a big red button on a nearby wall} What is this? Whaaat is this?! {points to button}
CHORCH COMMANDER: Oh, don't touch that! It's the self destruct button. It'll blow this place up!
BRODY: Oh, okay. I'd better not touch it. {pushes button} Oops. {laughs}
COMPUTER VOICE: Self Destruct activated in 60... 59... 58... {continues to count down}
CHORCH COMMANDER: You- You IDIOT!
BRODY: {laughs} Sorry, robot guy. Gotta go!
CHORCH COMMANDER: Come back here, you traitor!
{Brody, still looking like Stinkoman, runs back up the way he came, which appears to be the only exit. He apparently pushes a button on his way up, causing the computer to react.}
COMPUTER VOICE: 48... 47... Complete Lockdown activated. 44... 43...
{A metal door slams down in front of the exit, which the Chorch Commander zoomed towards. He smacks the metal door head-on, dazing him momentarily but not denting the door at all.}
CHORCH COMMANDER: Noooooo! Stupid Stinkoman!
COMPUTER VOICE: 39... 38... 37...
{Cut to the outside of the tree hideout. Tampo and Stlunko are in combat against Stinkoman. Currently Stinkoman is "puncha-puncha-puncha"-ing Stlunko's back, having no effect. Stlunko swats him off with a hand as Brody rushes out of the tree's entrance.}
STINKOMAN: {stops fighting and looks at Brody, who is still disguised as Stinkoman} Oh, Stinkoman! You're here! Hey, can you fight these guys for me? I promised 1-Up and Pan Pan to take them to the movies in an hour!
BRODY: Uh...
STINKOMAN: Thanks, Stinkoman. I knew I count on you! {charges up} Double duueeeece! {zooms away}
BRODY: ...okay.
TAMPO: It's a good thing we were here. He was going to enter that tree.
STLUNKO: Yes. Here, Brody. I will change you back.
{He zaps Brody with that laser gun-like thing again and the holograph and voice changer turn off, revealing the small Brody.}
TAMPO: So how'd it go in there?
BRODY: Oh it went great. The Chorch was completely fooled. He told me his plans.
TAMPO: How should we defend against his attack?
BRODY: Oh, don't worry about it. All his plans are about to- {shocked} HOLY FISH-PASTE!!! Run!
{Brody runs away from the tree as fast as he can. The other two are confused, but they quickly follow him anyway. Two seconds later, the tree explodes in a huge blast, which actually knocks Tampo to the ground.}
TAMPO: Oof! {pause} I'm okay!
{Tampo floats back up and the other two go back to rejoin him. Behind them, the smoldering remains of the tree smoke quietly. Only a jagged, charred trunk remains with some metalic parts sticking out.}
TAMPO: What was that?
BRODY: Ehh... I blew him up.
STLUNKO: I am guessing that we do not have to worry about Chorch Commander #20 anymore.
TAMPO: Yeah, but we still better go through our army and make sure there aren't any more traitors.
BRODY: Right now though, I just want to get back to my normal size.
TAMPO: Okay, let's go.
{The three leave the area. A cloud floats by and the words "Click here to email Tampo" appear on it in gray text. The cloud stops moving.}
