Disclamer: I do not own The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, any of Robert Jordan's characters: Rand, Perrin, Mat(but OO how I wish I owned Matt! instead of that Tuon grr); any of Terry Goodkind's Characters: Zedd, or Richard, (I invented Frank but based him on Terry Goodkind); any of Tolkein's characters: Gandalf, Bilbo, Merry, or Pippin; nor do I own any of Ann Rice's characters (but they are really cool!): David and Lestat.

BACKGROUND:

From the script of The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai across the Eighth Dimension

Meanwhile, NEW JERSEY and RENO NEVADA are searching another lab. They pass racks of equipment, including a large watermelon clamped into some sort of apparatus.

NEW JERSEY:

Why is there a watermelon there?

RENO NEVADA:

I'll tell you later.

Yet in the whole rest of the movie, the viewer doesn't find out what happened to the watermelon! (that's all you need to know of the movie, but it is funny!)

NOW to the story:

Rand Al'Thor, Mat Cauthon (he makes my heart go pitta patta), Perrin Aybara, Zeddicus Zul-Zorander, Richard Rahl, some random other brother of Richard's named Frank, Perigrin Took, Meriadoc Brandybuck, Gandalf the Grey/White, David Talbot, Lestat (ahh, what I wouldn't give for a rock star vampire!), Zaphoid Beatlebrox, Arthur Dent and a few other people had just finished watching The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai across the Eighth Dimension and were wondering what really did happen to that watermelon.

Rand: That was an interesting movie!

Perrin: For once, something that takes my mind off wolves!

Merry: What really did happen to that watermelon?

Pippin: I DUUN'T NUU!

David: Wow, for once something of which there isn't a file in the archives of the Talmasca! (not that I'm part of them anymore!) That's something I need to find out about.

Mat: NUU! not another adventure! anyone up for dice?

*Lestat takes him up on it because a many year old vampire has money to lose, but he could probably end up winning it back in cards with his psychic abilities, and he doesn't much care about watermelon as he can't eat it, well, eating is underrated anyway*

Gandalf: I'll go gather a motley crew and force Bilbo to come help us discover the secrets of the watermelon, but of course I won't come because I'm too high and mighty.

Zedd: Hah! some wizard you are! I help my Grandson willingly!

Richard: Well, you did kill my Grandfather, and all you did in terms of sending people on odd quests was name me Seeker but on the other hand, you kept on getting thrown somewhere else.

Frank: Whell, I'm evil because all of Richard's brothers just happen to be so, ergo I shall attempt to thwart you all! MoOhAHa!

Richard: yeah, but they all end up dying anyway so it doesn't matter. But what I wouldn't give for a brother who isn't fell

Rand: Let's all, as good guys succeed! Who's coming with us on our froody journey?

*Everyone except for Mat and Zaphoid agree, and eventually they ends up going on the adventure anyway because they're always dragged into it--poor things.*
