S2 Episode 20. Jack and Ellie's first
issue of the Tribe Trader newssheet. Other than its obvious purpose
- a newspaper, Jack and Ellie are asking for information about the
Virus.
For the camera, it has to look the part. A stack of blank paper wouldn't
do. But if the camera is going to focus in on it, the text ought to
be relevant. Well unfortunately it's garbage, including a refernce
to a Mr. "Slarty-bart-fast"
Slartibartfast is a fictional character in The Hitchhiker's
Guide to the Galaxy, a comedy/science fiction series created by
Douglas Adams. |
Below is a transcript of the text, as far
as can be read. The spelling mistakes are not mine! |
Information on the Killer
Virus, which as everyone knows has killed all Adult Life as
we know it is being sort by the gang "Mall Rats".
The Killer virus, which has been called
"The Killer Virus", is a virus which has killed, therefore
is a killer.
Many people have been "killed" by the so called "virus",
and many more it is feared will, "die". A cure for
the virus is believed to exist. But who really cares.
I don't particually care but many people
do, and it is these "people" that are on a "mission"
to find the cure.
Slarty-bart-fast says-
"I
think a cure is needed...To cure people. From the "virus".
Slarty-bart-fast is the manager of a non-existent
company that I have invented. I invented him to fill in more
space on the page. My word, is that really the time? I have
to have this finished very quickly.
I guess what I will do is just copy bits
of this side onto the other side. That way I will be twice as
quick. Blah, Blah. Hello, I'm a pumpkin. Wo look at me. Oh well,
soon I will have finished. V...???? |
