sincerely,Discountest of the bricks

STRONG SAD: {reads emails, says name as "Dis Countess of the Bricks"} Dang, how do you address a countess? I don't want to offend a noble of the Land of the Bricks...again. {starts typing} Your Countessness, thank you for your correspondence. You raised a good question. What would happen if everything went my way? {turns around chair} I'll not just tell you what would happen, I'll show you. With the power of imagination {dark gothic rainbow appears} and this virtual reality helmet. {picks up helmet, and puts it on}

{Sciency transtion}

STRONG SAD: {voice-over} If everything went my way, I would have my stuff published by a real publishing firm, not that girlie book one.

{Cut to Coach Z at a bookshelf, holding a book titled "Senor and Mr.Bland Are Dead"}

COACH Z: I'm happy! {pause} But vaguely disappernted...

BUBS: {behind a counter} Hey! You can't just hang around reading. This ain't a library!

COACH Z: Yes it is. {points to sign saying "Library"}

BUBS: Oww...shiitake mushrooms.

{Cut to the other Brothers Strong in the corner of a boxing ring. The Cheat sits outside.}

STRONG SAD: {voice-over}My brothers would finally go into wrestling like they always talked about and leave me alone.

ANNOUNCER: And in the other corner, from Our Lady of Overwhelming Guilt, Sister Mary's 4th grade class!

STRONG BAD: {proud} Our toughest match yet.

{Cut to a museum hall. Strong Sad is walking down the hall, surrounded by contemporary art (like photo-realistic autospy paintings of fiberclass covered in elephant dung)}

STRONG SAD: Free Country would become The Place for the Arts.

{Marzipan walks up to Strong Sad}

MARZIPAN: Hello, Strong Sad, I just wanted to tell you how much I respect and admire you, and I don't think you're fat or boring...

{Strong Sad perks up}

MARZIPAN:...oh, who am I kidding? You're the worse person I know and I hate you! I hate you!

STRONG SAD: Wait, this isn't supposed...

{Several things happen at once. The Brothers Strong and The Cheat march in wearing Nazi uniforms.}

STRONG BAD: Siggie heel!

{A pack of zoo animals run through the hall. Modestly Hot Homsar enters carrying several babies.}

MODESTLY HOT HOMSAR: My husband!

{The museum collaspes. The words "Mission Aborted" appear on screen. Cut to Strong Sad's room}

STRONG SAD: {taking off helmet} I can't even imagine myself being happy. That's sad. Really sad.

{the end}

Fun Facts

Explanations

  • This whole email is based vaguely on that episode of Red Dwarf (a British sci-fi comedy) where they get virtual reality but Rimmer messes it up with his subconsious and every thing goes wrong. Vaguely based on that.
  • The first line refers to the Ray Bradberry short story "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?". The movie Blade Runner was based on the story.
  • "Senor and Mr. Bland are dead" refers to the Tom Stoppard play "Rosencratz and Guildenstein are dear".
  • "Siggie heel" is a mispronuncation of "sieg heil", a Nazi slogan.

Trivia

  • Read biography to understand why Coach Z is disappointed.
