Scene: Lute, Red, and the Mecs have returned to the remains of Lute's home. Lute surveys the damage with slack-jawed bewilderment.
Red: *puzzled look* Your mom forget to put out a cigarette?
Lute: MY HOUSE!
T260G: Home of master totally destroyed.
Lute: MY BIKE!
PzkwV: You don't think this is about... us... do ya, G?
Lute: My... my... lunatic stuffy...
Lute tearfully charges into the wreckage of his home.
T260G: Probability 60%. Wreckage includes several battle Mecs and gnomes. Possible trouble with fight promoters.
Red: That doesn't make sense. pointing at one of the Mec's remains Analyze this.
Far away, Lute digs desperately through the rubble of his former bedroom.
PzkwV: I see what you're saying. Those are HyperBlaster shots, and none of the Mecs have those.
Red: No, not that.
Red pulls a chunk of twisted metal off from one of the Mecs.
T260G: Obvious reference to low accuracy and high accumulation of blasts, uncommon with battle Mecs.
Red: I'm working with simpletons! No! Look!
Red shoves the metal into T260G's face.
Lute: returning clutching a smoke-damaged plush winged-rabbit toy Thank God you're ok, Psycho.
T260G: Fail to observe else out of ordinary.
Red snarls and shoves the melted metal into Lute's face.
Red: YOU! LOOK AT THIS!
Lute: *knocked over* Whuh?
Red: IT SAYS, "MADE IN KOORONG"! WHOEVER HEARD OF A BATTLE MEC BEING MADE IN KOORONG!?
Lute: *puzzled*
Red: IT'S MADE FROM STAINLESS STEEL! DOESN'T THAT TELL YOU ANYTHING?
Lute: What are you babbling about?
Red: YOUR FAMILY WAS SET UP! IT'S ALL HERE! IT'S A CONSPIRACY!
Mecs and Lute: *sweatdrops*
Red: THE CHICKEN WALKS SIDEWAYS IN THE MOONLIGHT!
PzkwV: You're off your rocker, old man.
Red: I'M NOT OLD!!
Lute: And who ever heard of a Mec wearing a melted pitcher?
Red: MY POINT EXAC- uh, pitcher?
Lute: Mom uses... err... used it to serve lemonade.
Red: *turning red* Nevermind.
Lute: A conspiracy. You had me going for a minute.
Red: Tell that to your mom and squid *points*
Lute: My... MOOOOM!!!!!!
Lute charges back back into the wreckage.
PzkwV: Poor kid.
Red: House and family wiped out by a government conspiracy. Tragic.
PzkwV: Think of the insurance settlement.
T260G: *KICK* Shameless scrappile!
