Pre-show festivities - "Happy Birthday" is playing through the studio at high volume.
Mandy's franticly hanging balloons everywhere and bossing Rohan around. :Rohan! Get that gluten-free cake in the fridge now!!"
Rohan walks around confused, looking for the non-existant fridge. Finally just sitting the cake outside on the window ledge; "It'll keep chilled out there".
Troy and Trey are getting the life sized birthday cake in place. Trey: "Where did Brian come up with this idea? Who jumps out of cakes anymore? And why is a hollow cake so heavy?" Troy: "Well I did the other day... I was trying to win a prize at the ScheinerBoch convention and cake jumping was on the agenda...It shouldn't be heavy unless someone is inside...." Trey: "sigh...don't I have better things to do today? Wait...what? (whispering) Brian are you inside this cake?"
Mandy yells: "Shut up you morons!! They're coming down the hall! Cut out the lights!!! CUT OUT THE..."
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTY!!!!!!" The four yell out in unison.
Christy is shocked at the sad display of festiveness.... thinks to herself: "Couldn't these idiots have come up with something a bit better?" But says aloud: "Thanks guys! You're..."
They cut her off with a loud rendition of "For she's a jolly good fellow!" while Mandy taps on the side of the gigantor cake thinking "He better not have fallen asleep in there..." Troy bursts out with: "But wait, there's more!" Jumping up and down like a littbe boy clapping him hands together. Trey elbows him "Don't give away the surprise!" Rohan throws up his hands at the trainwreck this is turning out to be.
At the last line of the song Brian bursts out of the cake yelling "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BEAUTIFUL WIFE!!!"
Silence fills the room.... why is Brian still in his Batman costume from halloween? Why does he have salsa all over his face and chip crumbs on his costume?
Mandy yells out in disgust: "I said dress NICE for her! I meant a suit or something....what's with this Batman thing? You know wearing the outfit doesn't make you the actual Batman! And the chips and salsa stains don't help your cause.... ugh. Sorry Christy I wanted your birthday to be a good one...."
Christy (trying to smooth everything over): "It IS a good one! And thanks guys for the nice surprise. (in a low voice) Brian, I said I liked you in the costume....that didn't mean never take it off..." Brian is still in the cake, hands raised high, huge grin on his face, thinking he's made Christy's birthday a success...
Rohan tries to corral the workers: "Alright everybody, that's all we have time for. Let's get this show on the road (so we can all get back to our real jobs...)"
Brian climbs out of the cake and starts bossing everybody around: "Right right, everybody get to your places. I've got a cracker show planned. Christy have you got the microphones all set up?"
Christy: "Ugh. Don't boss me! It's my birthday after all (I can't believe I'm even doing this fake radio show ON my birthday...)"
Mandy remembers the cake and jumps back out of her seat, knocking into the microphone on the way out......a loud screech invades the studio chaos...... "DANG MANDY! What's wrong with you??" Troy yells. Trey jumps up, gun in hand, ready to shoot the speakers an stop the noise. Christy jumps to action to get the noise stopped. At the soundboard she finds that Brian has dribbled salsa all over creating a sticky mess and congealing the buttons. Rohan has clapped his hands over his ears and is rolling on the floor in agony. Brian realizes he must be just as deaf as Christy says cos the noise isn't bothering him much. Finally Christy gets the noise to stop and everyone settles back down.
She gives the thumbs up and says we're on air in 5...4...3...2... Brian: "Welcome one and all to another rousing rendition of the show!" We'd like to all give a shout out to Christy on her birthday and have an on-air surprise we'd like to present." (Christy crossed her fingers and hopes it's an announcement of a hiatus in this fictitious show)
Mandy giggles in excitement and goes over to the window to get the cake, drawing back the window she reaches out to grab it.....and realises it's been eaten by a flock of birds, who all fly back around once the window is opened...filling the studio with their eagle eyes on the lifesize cake!! Everyone jumps up from their places, trying to shoo the mass of birds away. Trey pulls him gun out of its holster once again, Christy yells "Don't you kill these beautiful birds!!!" and runs in front of the gun to protect them. Brian hops around arms flaying trying to get the birds to stop pecking at him Batman costume.....Troy starts over to the cake on the window sill, wanting to find out if they're any crumbs left he can scavange.... Rohan's next to Trey encouraging him to shoot, asking did he bring another gun. "I hear Grackles are good eating Trey! Let's give it a go."
Mandy throws herself to the floor in a hissy fit. Christy sighs and goes to tell her it's all ok, she had a great birthday and would she PLEASE stop crying.......
Unbeknownst to everyone, the on-air sign in still lit and all is being broadcast to an astounded audience who's wondering what in the world has happened.....
Tune in next time: Will Trey and Rohan get to shoot a couple birds? Is this the end of Brian's Batman costume? Did Troy find any crumbs left to eat? Will The Superfriends include this episode in their highlights CD? Will Christy get another cake?

First one in a while.....TUNE IN
It's 10.58am outside the Superfriends studio. No one is inside, it's so quiet you could hear a pin drop... (a pin is heard dropping in the distance)
Brian is seen outside trying to get the key to work in the door.
Brian: “What tha? What’s wrong with this key?!?”
Mandy is seen crouched behind some bushes giggling that her grand plan is working….
On site in the newly renovated remote broadcast station – Christy is at the helm and directing people to their places: “Rohan get to your seat! We’ve only just asked you to take part in the show again and all you’re interested in doing eating the gluten-free food I’ve bought! Keep that up and you’re getting the sack!”
Rohan (scared like an abused pup) puts the food down and stomps over to his chair: “What am I here for anyway? I could be out fishing, hunting, creating all realms of havoc on innocent animals….”
Christy interrupts: “That’s enough out of you – you’ll give your Tuesday’s with Rohan segment and you’ll be happy about it! Where are Brian and Mandy anyway?” (head in hands she wonders for the umpteenth time why she ever agreed to steer this rapidly sinking ship)
Mandy busts into the newly renovated broadcast station with a flurry of excitement: “I’m here ya’ll! Let’s get this show on the road!”
Christy: “Uhm Mandy, where’s Brian? I thought you were going to go get him at the old studio and tell him to come here?”
Mandy: “Christy schmisty, of course I TRIED to tell him, but he didn’t seem to be there. Maybe you should have relayed the message to him at home. You know, communication is the key to a good marriage.”
Christy: “Ok you’re getting on my nerves. Just get to your microphone and get started, I’ll go see if I can find him.”Rohan (trying to butt in): “Settle down ladies, I’ll go look for him. You two have a show to run.”
Mandy: “Right, cue it up Christy I’ll show everybody how this is done.”
~Guns-N-Roses “Welcome to the Jungle” blasts thru the studio~
Mandy: “Welcome one and all – we’re rockin’ in 93.8 the Crowsfeet with the deluxe model Christy running the show and yours truly maxin’ and relaxin’ as your host for today’s segment. “ (in a whisper… “and Brian’s not here today”) “So it’s on with the show! We have decided to take control of a newly renovated remote broadcast station and are loving the new digs. We’re commencing a tournament style game of SPOONS and have decided to accept entrants through a write in application process. On today’s show we’ll interview a few possible players. Christy, who do we have first?”
Christy: “We have a caller on the line who will only give the name ‘B’.”
Mandy: “ ‘B’ thanks for calling! How did you hear about our SPOONS tournament?”
‘B’: “Uhm well MANDY I thought of the whole thing! Where’s this so-called new… what? Who’s that? ROHAN! What’s going….”
Mandy: “Sorry patient listeners, ‘B’ must have gotten cut off somehow. Darn telephone lines…. ANYWHO, I think we have a caller on line 2. Go ahead caller!”
Caller on line 2: “Yea I’d like to get in on this SPOONS action.”
Mandy: “And which avid listener do we have on the line?”Caller: “The names Jolly and I’m a rockin’ granny who whips up a mean ding dong cake and plays SPOONS with the pros.”Mandy: “Well now that sounds like the kind of entrant we need! We’ll welcome you to join, of course we’ll need to receive your entrance fee up front of $100.00 to….”Jolly: “One hundred dollars! You’ve got to be kidding me! You little runt, if you think…”
Christy: “Oops, lost that caller. But not to be deterred it appears we have a surprise guest for the show – I see Brian and Rohan running toward the studio, and it looks like they have Brian’s grandma in tow!”Brian: (Breathless from the mad dash) “Welcome one and all to this segment of…”
Mandy: “Brian, we’ve already gone over that. And it seems our time is up for the show today. Thanks everyone for tuning in and we’ll catch ya next time on 93.8 the Crowsfeet where we’ll delight one and all with an on-air game of SPOONS!”
"Bye Bye Miss American Pie" plays over the speakers........
Mass mahem ensues - Brian is seen seething in the background, ranting and raving about this change in studio: “Whoever came up with the idea of creating Ms Pegues’ office into a studio???”
Ms Pegues is seen offering a plate of ding dong cake to Brian, which promptly turns his sour mood upside down and puts Mandy back in the good books again. As he and Rohan hoover their cake, high five-ing over getting Brian into the new studio and comparing “memememememe’s”, Mandy is cowering from Grandma’s tantrum over why she locked Brian out of the studio. Christy, wondering why she gets left out all the time on the flow of glutenous goodies, is being consoled by Ms Robinson (who by the way is deviously plotting her victorious win at the SPOONS tourney).
Tune in next time for the best Superfriends ever—when the tournament of SPOONS turns into a game of KNIVES because someone forgot to wash the dishes….
