ARUSEUS: These emails were made for checkin' and that's just what I will do! {types run_arumail.exe}

   subject: next kot?

   Dear Aruseus,
   What would everything be like if you were elected the next King of Town?
   From,
   DonutHead41

ARUSEUS: {typing} Next KOT, eh Donutman? {starts singing} Well...{normal}No. I won't get into a musical number. {clears screen}

ARUSEUS: {typing} Well, if I ruled Free Country USA...the castle...

{Cut to the KOT Castle}

ARUSEUS: {Voiceover} It wouldn't look so...goofy.

{The castle explodes}

ARUSEUS: {Voiceover} Instead, it would be this supercool domed castle.

{A metal castle with domed roofs appears}

ARUSEUS: {Voiceover} Oh! There would be these monorail cars all around the town!

{Monorail tracks come out of both sides of the castle, Cut to Aruseus' living quarters}

ARUSEUS: {Voiceover} And my room would be the same. Except with a fountain of root beer, a nice bed, and uh...all of the coolest guys would live here.

{as he names his dream room, the following items appear, along with Tom, Zippy, Lyle, Kyubii, Pter, Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat}

FOXX: {Record scratch,Voiceover} Hey! What about me?

{Cut back to Computer Room}

ARUSEUS: What do you want?

FOXX: Include me as one of the cool guys!

ARUSEUS: Whatever. I'll find a use for you.

{Cut back to Aruseus' room}

ARUSEUS: {Voiceover} Foxx...he would be my...servant...

{Foxx appears holding a plate with several drinks on it}

ARUSEUS: {Voiceover} No, no, wait! a robot servant.

{Foxx is replaced by a robotic version of himself}

ROBOFOXX: {in a robotic voice} Here are your drinks, Master Aruseus.

EVERYBODY: Drinks!

{Everyone dives on top of RoboFoxx, a dust cloud is seen, as RoboFoxx's arm rolls out}

ROBOFOXX: Ouch.

FOXX: {Record scratch,Voiceover} That's it?

ARUSEUS: Well, I was stumped. Now run along, until I boot you out the window.

FOXX: Leaving! {rushes out}

ARUSEUS: Yeah, that's right. Just go run.

{The Paper} [edit] Easter Eggs

Click on Aruseus to see an extra scene.

{Cut to Tom's Room, Foxx is holding a piece of paper}

FOXX: Heheh...this is the perfect infiltration plan-

{Tom runs in}

TOM: What are you doing in my room!? [edit] Fun Facts

I do them when I feel like it.

NAMINE: Alright, going through the lines in this one is just not worth the hassle. Honestly, the aimless direction of what he does with the King of Town's castle confused me. Most of the point to the KOT's castle is exemplifying how his rule isn't being taken seriously by the remainder of Free Country, USA. The email wasn't that great to respond to, so the entire email fell short as a result. Thankfully, there aren't any jokes for me to handpick or I'd have gone out of my way to mock them. The email is so short that any punchline it has doesn't quite work. Aruseus, the test email you did to make your Email show official on the HRFWiki was longer than this. And slightly better, in my opinion.

NAMINE: The formatting is also atrocious. You can do a lot better than this. You've done better than this. Hopefully this doesn't lose its spark so quickly, as I've got about 92 more of these to go, give or take a few "bonus" emails you happened to have. And I do expect better as otherwise Noxigar's reasons for liking this Email show fail immensely.
NOXIGAR: Woah, calm down.
NAMINE: Sorry. It's just this email episode frustrates me.

NOXIGAR: I'm glad to tell you that it gets a whole lot better.
