*the war room is just starting to wake up when the War 
Room-o-vision lights up with a scene from Tridus' locker*

*Tridus and Styx can be seen in the room. Tridus is holding the 
silly stick in one hand and is looking at a phone which is 
ringing (speaker phone). All youcan see of Styx is the back of 
his head. The camera is apparently up in the roof looking down 
based on the angle of the shot*

phone - Hello Ladies... Welcome to Big Sexy's party line! If your 
are Blonde, press 1. Brunette, press 2. Red head, press 3. 
Sisters, press 4. For paternity suit settlements, press 8. All 
others press 9.

*Tridus looks oddly at the phone, shakes his head and presses 9.*

phone - One moment please... *ring... ring... ring... ring...* 
We're sorry, all operators are currently busy with more important 
callers. Please leave a message and someone will get back to you 
sometime next year.

*beep*

Y2T - *sigh* Stefan... its Y2T here, get off your sorry ass and 
call me, its really important to your health! *hits the hang up 
button*

Styx - wrong number?

Y2T - No... thats the only number he has. Maybe we should forget 
about the death matches and just rid the world of voice mail 
systems instead. *waits for Styx to laugh*

*Styx doesn't laugh or anything*

Y2T - Damn... we need to work on your sense of humor! I mean 
really Styx, what a week it will be, we're going to liberate the 
death matches and save all the Tridaholics from boredom! Not to 
mention... that we don't really need Stefan anyway, with Sidious 
in my pocket and all.

Styx - But what if Sid just says no?

Y2T - He won't! He may be an idiot, but he's not stupid. He won't 
want a mob beating down his door, the fear of what I can do to 
everyone else will be enough to make him agree. The trick will be 
to find a way to keep him from rigging the match...

Styx - I don't know, he seems like kind of an ass. What if he 
saves his own neck and doesn't worry about everyone else?

Y2T - Thats not going to happen, so don't worry about it! I know 
exactly what I am... *eyes happen to look up and see the camera*  
hmm... *looks back down* Styx... do you like rain?

Styx - Rain? *Shakes his head no*

Y2T - Well... what if I told you it was about to start raining 
spies?

*Tridus lunges the silly stick up towards the camera*

*The War Room-o-vision shows the stick flying towards the camera, 
then static*

** ten minutes later **

*The static is replaced by the Y2T countdown banner*

*the lights go out. Enter Sandman starts cranking, waking up most 
of the rest of the sleeping forumers. As the fireworks shoot off, 
Tridus can be seen silhouetted in his usual entrance position. 
Styx can be seen with a bundle slung over his shoulder*

*The two of them walk out onto the ramp, and Styx can be seen 
with a man slung over his sholder unconscious*

Y2T - Welcome to Good Morning War Room, with your host, Tridus!

*a few sparadic cheers, most people aren't really awake*

Y2T - Sid... that was a very dumb move on your part, sending the 
spy after me and all... you know what would happen to this person 
normally...

*Styx grins evilly*

Y2T - But you know I said yesterday that you had until Monday to 
do what these Tridaholics want... and I will keep my word. So as 
a gesture of good faith, here is your camera man and spy back, 
save and sound. Styx, if you would...

*Styx throws the camera man about ten feet down the ramp, where 
he falls limply*

Y2T - Oh don't worry, he'll wake up in a few minutes, he just had 
kind of a nasty fall.

*a couple of EMT's rush up to the camera man to attend to him*

Y2T - Sid! You have Two Days left! And just so you don't forget...

*On the War Room-o-vision, a clock appears which says "1 day, 
23 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds... 58.... 57..."*

Y2T - Hit the music!

*Enter Sandman cranks again as Y2T and Styx depart, leaving the 
EMT's, the unconscious camera man, a sleepy War Room, and the 
counter ticking down*
