In this chapter, Zim faces a daunting decision: go back and protect his secret identity, or secure ultimate power beyond his wildest dreams? Zim wakes up to the smell of wretched earth-food. the hobbits are stuffing their faces with breakfast
Zim: *shudders* how do you eat that?
Pippin: like this *eats more*
Merry: Pippin, you're a pig
Pippin: *snorts*
Zim: the smell...
GIR *holds a sausage in Zim's face* want some master?
Zim: AAA! *dives behind a rock* GIR! you disgust me
GIR: I like it...*misses his mouth and gets grease all over his head. finally after poking himself in the eye several times he gets it in his mouth*
Zim: stay away from me...
GIR: Aww, master's sad again. you need a hug!
ZIM: nooooooooo! *runs away*
Back to Dib...
Dib: *suiting up for an expedition to Zim's house* i still can't believe it! this is the opportunity of a lifetime!!
Gaz: I hope Zim finds you and performs horrifying experiments on you
Dib: *ignores Gaz* lets see...camo jacket, check...
Gaz: you're gonna be indoors, whats the point of blanding in with shrubbery?
Dib...night vision goggles, check...
Gaz: you're going in the daytime
Dib: *looks under couch cushions* where's my swiss army utility pen i got from the CIA mail-order catalog?
Gaz: *gets up and walks out of the room* i disassembled it and mailed each piece to a different country
Dib: GAZ! how am i supposed to find all the pieces, then?
Gaz: that's the point...you wont
Dib: *mutters* little sisters...oh well i got my camera anda floppy disk to download all the stuff off his computer. see ya! *walks out the door but then sticks his head back in the room* if i'm not back in 2 hours call the number on that paper i gave you.
Back in Middle-Earth, the gang is finishing packing up to start the day's journey. Everyone is ready except GIR. Zim goes back into the cave where they slept to figure out what's taking so long
Zim: GIR! what are you doing!
GIR: watchin scary monkey
Zim: *blinks* huh?
GIR: *shows Zim a little viewscreen he's watching it on*
Zim: GIR! that's the screen i use to monitor the base while i'm away! *snatches it and flips some switches* i set the security cameras to feed to one of the channels, which one was it-aha! *the screen now shows various views of the base* well everything looks ok- wait...it's Dib! in my base! taking pictures with his horrible..picture..taker...thing.This is horrible!
GIR: horrible's good right?
Zim: no GIR, that's bad. rrgh, it would be just like Dib to throw a wrench into my plans. *sigh* I must defend the secrecy of the mission, no matter how great an opportunity i have here. GIR, i want you to use this to keep in touch with me *hands GIR the screen back* press this button here to call my personal video comlink. I want you to stay here and monitor these creatures on their quest. keep me updated *his survival backpack turns into a jetpack* i'm going to fly back to where we warped in from. if all went well with the shifting the portal should still be open. if i'm lucky the megadoomer will still be there as well *flies off*
GIR: send a postcard *waves*
Zim: *shudders* how do you eat that?
