Lord of the Phones

by Gigigue

Frodo inherits the one iPhone and goes on an epic quest to destroy it. Until all the readers realize that it's not so epic. In fact, it's downright stupid. Well, maybe not quite that far. Let's just say, insane, wacko, bizarre, weirdness. If you read, beware of mind-blowing oddity. And crazy parodies of life. That works. Yeah, now read it.

36. Double-Trouble - Part 1

Please read! Even if you don't like author's notes!

A/N: Okay, so this next league of the story involves Legolas, Aragorn and Gimli going on a bunch of game shows, as revealed in the last scene. This is going to be a little confusing and weird to read, so we want to take a moment to explain. Okay, so when you read these game shows, imagine that you're a citizen of Middle-Earth. You're living in an average house, and you're bored, so you turn on the TV and see that a game show with our three heroes is on. So you watch it (aka. read the scene) and then during commercial breaks, you switch to other game shows. So in other words, these aren't in any chronological order, they're just in the order they were aired on Middle-Earth TV, and you are switching back and forth between shows. Okay. Now you can read.

Scene 36

(Legolas, Gimli and Aragorn are sitting in the set for Double-Trouble, a famous game show in Middle-Earth.)

Announcer: Welcome to (dramatic silence) Double-Trouble! The game show where you win more money than Bill Gates! Remember, all answers must be in the form of a question. Our contestants are: Aragorn son of Arathorn, your future king! Gimli son of Gloin, a dwarf, and Legolas Thranduilion, prince of Mirkwood, an elf.

(The contestants walk out and sit in chairs.)

Announcer: The categories are (dramatic silence) Middle Earth Geography, Middle Earth Races, and (dramatic silence) Mordor Companies! Alright, Legolas, you may go first.

Legolas: I'll take Middle Earth Races for 1 billion.

Announcer: Elves.

(Legolas raises hand first.)

Legolas: What has blond hair?

Announcer: Wrong! Any takers? Elves.

(Aragorn raises his hand.)

Aragorn: What is annoying?

Announcer: Wrong. Gimli, do you know the answer?

Gimli: What is perfect?

Announcer: Correct! Gimli wins 1 billion dollars! Which question do you want?

Gimli: Middle Earth Geography for 2 billion.

Announcer: Full of horses.

Gimli: What is Rohan?

Announcer: You have to raise your hand first.

(Gimli raises his hand.)

Gimli: What is Rohan?

Announcer: Correct!

Gimli: Middle Earth Geography for 3 billion.

Announcer: The Crowded Highway.

Gimli: What is crowded?

Announcer: You have to raise your hand!

(Gimli raises his hand.)

Gimli: What is crowded?

Announcer: Correct! We will be back right after the break!

A/N: Hopefully you figured out the right mindset to read this in. You'll get another chance in the next chapter. Oh, and this was a parody of the game show Jeopardy, in case you didn't figure it out.
