{Open up to blackness. In green size 10 Commodore 64 font, these words are displayed at the bottom left of the screen:}

Markie's Treehouse, Toad Town, Mushroom Kingdom, Plit
9:00 PM PST

{Fade in to Markie's treehouse interior. The camera views a front shot of an empty chair and leatherwood desk. Then, Markie, with a red baseball cap, a red saddle and crimson shoes, comes from the left side of the screen, sits down, puts the Bluey OS 289 on his lap, and opens the laptop cover. He looks up from his work.}

MARKIE: Ahem. You are invading my privacy.

{Silence for few seconds.}

MARKIE: Well? {hand gestures saying 'shoo!'} Off with you, intruder!

{More silence for few seconds. Then, the startup noise of the 289 is heard. More like, a drumroll, perhaps.}

MARKIE: I said...wait a minute, I almost forgot! I'm here today to check my e-mails- my HRFWIKI emails, mind you- because someone said so. Or maybe the fact that I'm an odd Homsar impersonator. Or maybe I'm hoping that Sly Cooper would pull off the biggest heist ever in the world- okay, let's not get into that. {camera switches to Markie's second-person view, facing the MS-DOS prompt, with a dark blue screen and white 'Eurostar Black Extended' font} Alright, now, here we go. {types in 'Markie_email_inbox.exe', presses enter. The words in purple '1 new message' is shown beneath the program name. Markie presses enter, and...}

Dear Markie and BurninatorBoombox,

Do you guys often get into fights?
~Your third wheel (or something), Hagurumon

{Markie pronounces 'third wheel' as 'thud wheel' for trying out his british accent talent. He also doesn't read the words in parentheses.}

MARKIE: {presses enter, blank space appears for typing, and starts to type} Well, if it ain't my friend the H-Man. It is such an honor to receive the very first e-mail from the very first Wikistuff fanstuff creator in all of what wiki...um...stuff...naw, forget it. It's too elaborate for complication. {presses enter again, new line forms, continues typing} Um, do we get into fights, me and BurninatorBoombox? Nope. Not a lot. But there was this one time...

{Transition to the front lawn of Markie's treehouse via wavy illusions. Markie is playing the Nintendo DS, more like Super Mario DS, on a steel porch chair. Game over sounds go off.}

MARKIE: {in scene} Man, that is the LAST time I ever play chance games in my life. EVER.

MARKIE: {voiceover} A few days ago, I borrowed BurninatorBoombox's so-called 'thus mine' DS. After fifteen minutes of rental...

{Switch scene to Markie walking inside his living room, reclining on the sofa. BurninatorBoombox comes in via tank wheel transportation.}

BURNINATORBOOMBOX: {Galactic Ranger voice, his normal voice of course} Hey, Markie.

MARKIE: {opening eyes} Yeah?

BURNINATORBOOMBOX: Can I have my DS back now?

MARKIE: No way! You said I could play it non-stop for three weeks!

BURNINATORBOOMBOX: {sarcastically} No, I lied. GIMME THE FREAKIN' DS!

MARKIE: Make me!

{The sound of a chainsaw slicing is heard. Pan out from Markie's squirm-eye expression. We see a miniature wood-carved statue of Markie playing the DS.}

MARKIE: Not literally!

BURNINATORBOOMBOX: Gimme it...!

{BurninatorBoombox jumps using two slinky springs. He extends a robotic arm from his ghetto blasta handle case and tries to grab the DS, but Markie yanks it away from him.}

MARKIE: Never!

MARKIE: {voiceover} The fight lasted as long as...I dunno, ten seconds? Yeah, ten seconds.

{Cut back to the Bluey OS 289 and Markie.}

MARKIE: {typing} In the end, though, we forgot the one rule to rule it all: Sharing is caring. So, we forgave each other after that and so I got a DS the day after. Now we can play head-to-head at Metroid Prime: First Hunt!

{Markie leaves his leather chair. The Hologram Projector, Markie's version of the paper, comes down. It says 'E-mail Markie at somethingsomethingsomething. Yeah. E-mail will come sooooooon.}

{Cut to the living room. Markie and BurninatorBoombox are playing the Nintendo DS, or Metroid Prime: First Hunt. Suddenly, victory noises are heard, and Markie raises his fist into the air.}

MARKIE: Alrighty! Who da man? Who da man that win the 6 hour game 60 to 59?

BURNINATORBOOMBOX: Can I get this over with and THROW YOU OFF PEACH CLIFF ALREADY?

MARKIE: If you mean not literally, then no.

Fun Facts

Real-World References

• The mentioning about heists and how Sly Cooper would pull the biggest one off in all the world's history is a reference to the one-line sentence used to create Sly Cooper and summarize it. This is the phrase that can be found in the making of the game video in Sly 2: Band of Thieves. But trust me, I haven't played the game. Yet.
• 'one rule to rule it all' is a reference to the phrase 'One Ring to Rule them All', both an LotR toon by Joseph Blanchette AKA LegendaryFrog and the line used in the movie itself. AND THE BOOK BY JRR TOLKIEN!
