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….
