A Nerd Hope (1x10)

Data emisji: Lis 08, 2006

A parody of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Two boys are in a small to mid-sized SUV, being chased by a larger, longer, white limousine. One of the boys sticks an unknown CD inside a Splinter Cell case and tosses it out the window, which lands on the doorstep of someone's house. Shortly after, their vehicle runs out of gas and slows to a halt. Jack Thompson (with a Darth Vader like demeanor) walks out of the limo (with a 'squad' of men in blue suits trailing behind) and demands to the two boys to know where the plans are that were stolen from his office. The 2 boys make a bogus excuse like a "munchies run", but Thompson orders the car to be torn apart and munchies to be found unopened. Roll Opening Ethan opens the front door, boasts of another day of ignoring the world and playing video games, and picks up the CD that was thrown out of the window by the 2 boys, thinking it's a free game. He attempts to read the instruction manual, only to find a piece of paper with the message: "Help me Benjamin Kotarski. You're our only hope.". Ethan recalls that this message may be referring to "old Ben K from next door". He rings his next door neighbor's bell and is greeted by an old man with a white beard dressed in a brown robe (like Obi-Wan Kenobi). Ethan tells him about a disc and is let inside. Ben tells of his old days when he fought in the "console wars" as a member of the "Nintendo knights", master of the "ownage". Ben pops the disc inside a player, and a video of one of the 2 boys from the beginning of the episode. The boy tells of plans of a device by Jack Thompson to destroy all video games forever. Ethan volunteers to tag along Ben to learn the ways of the ownage Back at Ethan's place, he asks Lucas for a ride and if it's fast whereas Lucas replies "Are you kidding! It made a run to the donut shop down the street in 12 minutes!". Ethan states his will to borrow it and leave before Lucas can fully object. Zeke hears of the plans and wants to come along
