Episode 2: A Grand Solution to a Frigid Problem

Updates will normally occur on Saturdays, depending on my homework load and activities.
Mark said...
Matt Schon should break into the Scientist's Lab in the attempt to steal Thorvald's frozen body and turn it into a snow cone.

Keldy said...
Continue thawing with the hair dryer.

Horne Star said...
Neil should try to reach for a laser-heater...
And you should introduce the "bad guy" soon... :)

Elmo said...
I think because we have not really addressed the intelligence of Neil... he should continue like a good Igor would and keep blow drying
Keldon should come back with some super duper way of thawing Thor (the Great and Mighty).

Neil The Real Deal said...
I think there needs to be a love story or even a love triangle.
When Thor gets defrosted he should have to undergo some treatment to be brought back to life. When Thor wakes up he loses all muscle control and poops a poop hat has been held for centuries.

Thorvald Olson Burntvedt IV said...
Neil should use Thorvald's hammer to break ice... or
Neil should use ice pick to chip ice, being very careful of Thorvald's *********.

As we continue...
Neil continues to use the hair dryer. After a grueling thirty seconds he decides that it isn't worth it. He looks around wondering, "Now what could I break the ice with?" He ponders what would happen if only that wonderful looking hammer weren't encased in ice. Nearby lies an ice pick. He hastily grabs it and starts chipping but stops when he realizes he won't be able to keep from ripping off bits of Thorvald's body. Nearby also lies a laser-heater. He grasps the machine, which resembles a flamethrower with a crystal nozzle, and prepares to turn it on the persistent ice. Suddenly, a black-clad man named Matt Schon bursts in carrying a snow cone machine.
"Where's the ice?" Matt asks.
In a panic Neil turns the laser on Matt and cuts the head off his shoulders with the bright purple beam of light.
"Funny," thinks Neil, "I thought it would be red."
He looks at the power cell, which coincidentally is actually spelled pwer sell thanks to the wonderful Japanese translators, and realizes the heater is dead.
"Poop schnigget," he exlaims, "now I have to use something else."
He glances at the large microwave standing in the corner. He looks over at the room Keldon is currently occupying.
"Just five more minutes!" the half mad scientist yells out to him.
"Five minutes, hmm?" Neil mumbles to himself.
He quickly throws the figure into the microwave and sets the dial to 4.5 minutes.

Four minutes and thirty seconds later...
"Beep!" shouts the microwave.
"Wait a minute," Neil interjects, "did you just shout?"
"Oh yes," replies the microwave, "the good doctor programmed me with an artificial intelligence that provides me with the ability to interact with humans. My name is Nesbitt."
"Nesbitt?" asks the surprised Neil. "What kind of crazy name is Nesbitt?"
"I was named after a heater. I rather like it."
"Oh. Fine then."
Neil removes the now thawed hero from the microwave and replaces him on the table. Keldon enters the room carrying an unidentifiable machine.
"This should thaw him out quickly and safely."
"Um...the hair dryer worked."
"Really? I would have guessed it would take longer but I guess I didn't apply my margin of error."
"Yeah."
"Well it's a good thing you didn't throw him in the microwave or else he could have come out REALLY messed up."
"Well actually," begins Nesbitt.
Neil kicks the large machine and it whines a downward glissando-diminuendo as it goes to sleep.
"Did you just kick Nesbitt?" asks a perplexed Keldon.
"No."
Thor wakes up and screams as his large bowels empty the remains of what he ate hundreds of years ago. He lifts his mighty hammer and prepares to smash it over Keldon's head.

WHAT SHOULD NEIL DO? As always, leave suggestions in the form of comments (which can be found just above the beginning of the episode. Remember, no outcomes, only actions). You give an action, I give an outcome.

Neil should take Thorvald the Great and Mighty to see the world... especially white castle.

Neil should kill keldon

James K said...

figuratively, of course. Thorvald should hold them hostage until they explain the "magic" that brought him to 21st century Minnesota. Then he should tell them the story of himself.


and btw, his hammer definitely needs a real name. perhaps myolnear?

J.R. Knickerbocker said...

Haha. I get it, it's "nearly" mjolnir!

James K said...

John Medfords said...

Thorvald should go on a spree of some sort. Preferably a killing one.

hey... neil should rescue keldy... because keldy is cool... but thor should not die either!

kelsey said...

knickerbocker.... he should meet a girl

James K said...

this is a really awkward amount of time for thorvald to be threatening them with his hammer. perhaps some of the suggested outcomes should occur. just a thought.
