(When we last left off, everything was going fine until a riot broke out at the archives;  and  and , and  and  started fighting for no reason at all. Chaos ensued. Now the BOTVGH Awards are almost here, and  and the rest of the BOTVGH characters face a dilemma... For now the show must go on, somehow....)

Martin: You know, you should really wait until the episode starts.

(This is what you paid me to do, isn't it?)

Martin: .......

Oh man, I'm so nervous! Do I look OK?!

We have worse problems than that, I'm afraid!!

Oh yeah.

Gosh, I hope they don't cancel the awards! It would be a disaster!

Hey, where'd H Cuz go?!

He left. He said he had to make a phone call.
Might as well try to help in the meantime.

( shoots a fireball at  and . It hits them, but they ignore it and keep on fighting.)

This is even worse than I thought!
Let me try!!

( shoots  and , who continue fighting.)

Hopeless.

Are we doomed?

Probably.

That sucks.

Tell me about it.

( walks in)
All right! Who did you get for help? The Street Fighters?
Ash & Co.? Team Rocket?
Captain Falcon??
Martin??
The Robot Masters???
No!! I called for--
Somebody order a pizza?
Yeah, I did. Thanks.
Here you go. That'll be 80 coins plus tax.
Here. (pays them)
Thanks! Come on, gang, let's go find our seats for the Awards!

(The  leave)

Wait a minute. H Cuz, do you mean to tell us that your "important phone call" was for PIZZA?!!
Well..... yeah. It's hungry work running this site.
All (that aren't fighting): ARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Oh, don't get all upset. You can have some if you want!!
Excuse me!! The BOTVGH Awards might not start on time because the main characters are bashing each other's brains in as we speak, and you ordered PIZZA?!
This, after you spent most of Episode 9 last season playing Pokémon...
Well....... yeah.
All (that aren't fighting): ARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
......Although I did stop by the BOTVGH Center, and I found a couple award nominees and presenters to help with the whole fighting thing.
All: .................
Well, why the heck didn't you tell us in the first place?!
You never asked!!
Remind me to kill you later.
Me first!
No, ME!!!
Oh, pipe down! You can't kill me, I run the site.... besides, remember what happened to Cow King?
All: Ohhh...
So who did you get to help?
Hello!
Oh geez, no.
I'm here to spread happiness, joy, and love!
No you're not. You're supposed to stop the fight, remember?
No....
All: (sigh)
But I'll try. Here goes!

( takes out his harp and starts singing a lullabye, putting everyone that's fighting -- except  -- to sleep. Unfortunately, he also put everyone else to sleep, except .)
Why didn't Mega Man and I fall asleep?

(Because you're robots.)
Oh.
Are you supposed to talk back like that?

(No.)
Oh.
Oops.... (Sprinkles dust that wakes everyone up.... and the fights start up again)
Let's try something else. Rocky, you there?

( comes in)

This is awful!!
Yeah, if they don't stop fighting, we may have to cancel the Awards.
Actually, The Rock was referring to the giant turtle Jabroni's chokeslam. It was pathetic!! And don't get The Rock started on his piledrivers....
(sigh) Just stop the fight, OK?
You're no fun.
(to , and ) All right, listen up!! The Rock says to save it for the ring and start getting ready for the Awards!! Otherwise, The Rock is going to have to take the People's Elbow and put the SMACK down on you!!

(, and  look at each other, then at , then stand perfectly still.)
That's better. Now if you'll excuse me, The Rock has to find his seat before Triple H does.
( leaves)

Triple H is here???
Looks like it.
I don't get wrestling these days. Back when I was a lad---
All: SHUT UP!!!!!
All right already!!

(A  flies in)
Message for BOTVGH, from Wario. He says he's not coming to present "Best New Author".
What?! Why not?
He's really, really ticked-off about not being nominated for "Best Recurring Character".
Crap, that's all we need. We're short a presenter....

( spots  walking by)

Whatcha doin'?
Looking for my seat.
Wanna present the award for "Best New Author"?
Sure!!
Well, that was simple enough....
Dude, check out that guy! He's HUGE!!!

(All look and see , followed by........ ?!)
Hey, aren't you supposed to be in jail?
They let me out so I could attend the awards. After all, I'm presenting an award.
So what's with the walking igloo?

( punches )

Ow.
I'm wit' dis here cow, because da boss don't want him to ex-cape. If he does..... I give 'im "the treatment". Ha ha ha ha.
Mmmmpph mpph?
Kenny wants to know what "the treatment" is?
Here, lemme show youse. (Picks up  and throws him down, jumps on him a few times, then smashes him into the floor so hard, only his feet are seen sticking out.)
Remember kids, Frost Man is a trained robot.
Do NOT try this at home!!
Deep Voice: FINISH HIM!!!!!
Great, now Mortal Kombat is here.

( uses the Ice Wave on , reducing  to a bloody pulp.)
Oh my god!!
You killed Kenny!!!
*gulp*
Well, why don't you two go find your seats....
Okay. (He and  walk off)
(whispers to ) That may take a while.
Well, shall we go to the Awards?
NO!!!!!!!!!!!

(All glare at )
Err, uhh, I.... didn't say anything.
Sure, Crank.

(Later, at the BOTVGH Center)
The BOTVGH Center???
Yep. This is where the Awards were last year.
It's also where the BOTVGH basketball team plays its home games!
But we don't have a basketball team!
Yes we do.

( appears!)
Hi everyone!
Since when have we had a basketball team?
Since about 6 lines ago.
......Oh.

****CLANG!!!!****

What was that?!
I think The Rock just found Triple H sitting in his seat.
Ouch.
I'm thirsty.

( comes by)
I'm selling refreshments.
Oh, good. Let me get my wallet........
I'm not selling the soda for money, though. I'm trading it for DBZ videos!
I'm afraid I don't have any.......
D'OH!!!!! (walks off in search of someone who might have DBZ videos)
I'm still thirsty...
I have a glass of water if you have Ranma 1/2 tapes.
(sigh)
Now for a cameo appearance.
I think we should start the Awards....
Some people requested cameos, and so I'm giving it to them. Everyone, this is Diskmaster. He wrote the short "The Number Problem", and he has another short coming up, entitled "The Republic".
Hi.
H Cuz, could you at least try to make your cameos a little less obvious?
I'm afraid not.
Well, I have an idea. SHUT UP AND GET ON WITH IT ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!
You don't want this episode to give Netscape Composer fits like last week's ep did, do you?
OK, OK, I'm going!! Sheesh.......

(The BOTVGH Awards!)
All: FINALLY!!!!
Mystery Voice: And now, the 2000 BOTVGH Awards with your host, H Cuz!!!

( comes on stage)
Thanks, everyone. As you know, last year Sean Kelly came up with the idea of BOTVGH Awards. All you readers got to vote for your favorite BOTVGH characters and episodes. The idea was so popular, I decided I'd try it myself this year. 101 people cast their votes in 11 different categories. Now, our first category....
Pokémon, of course, is the craze-of-the-moment all around the world, and it's no different here at BOTVGH. Presenting the award for "Best Pokémon" is a self-proclaimed Pokémon master, Ash Ketchum!

( comes up on stage)
Well, as H Cuz just said, today I'm presenting the award for "Best Pokémon". The nominees were...
Charcoal
Jigglypuff
Meowth
Pidgeotto
Pikachu
Psyduck
And this was a close race to the finish. In the end, it was Pikachu (32 votes) narrowly beating Charcoal (31 votes)!!
PIKA!!! (runs on-stage as the crowd cheers)
Ahem... Pika. {Thank you.} Pika pi pikachu, chu chu, pika pikachu. Pika PI-ka pikachu, pi! Pi... kachu kachu pikachu pi. Pi! Pi! Kachu!! {After I won the award for "Best Main Character" last year, everyone figured I'd run away with this award. But jellyfish toaster blakghhn#@*#%......}
Aaaaa!!! What's he doing?!
Sorry. I'm not real good at the Subtitle spell.
PIKA!!!!! (zaps )
*cough* As if it's my fault.
(as he walks offstage) Pikachu..... {Oscillating alcoholic green ocean bookmarks...}
Oh well... on to the next category. Every season brings a number of changes. Which Season 5 change was the most popular? Let's ask Blob.... not the Clayfighter one.
Hello. I am presenting this year's most unconventional award, "Best New Feature". The nominees were...
BOTVGH Interactive
Multi-author episodes
The new banners
The Video Game Tip of the Week
The winner was the Video Game Tip of the Week (40 votes), with BOTVGH Interactive as the runner-up (33 votes).
Well, what do I do for an acceptance speech for this? In Season 3, there was the Samurai Pizza Cats Quote of the Week. I couldn't get quotes, so in Season 4 we had a Pokémon Quote of the Week. But I ran out of those, so I decided to post classic video game tips. Remember, I take submissions for the Quote, which will continue through Season 6 and possibly longer!
And now, presenting the award for "Best New Author", here is Dreyfus X!!!

(The building suddenly gets dark and a flash of light fills the air. A figure appears in the air.)

I am the Master of Gold, I will destroy evil all around the world, I am DREYFUS X!!!

( lowers to the ground and walks to the microphone)
Well, every year new authors come to BOTVGH. Many of these continue to write for a long time, in fact three of the nominees have episodes for Season 6. The nominees are:
Klawkat
Matt Denton
Sarah M.
Wario the III
The runner-up (30 votes) is Wario the III, and the winner is Klawkat (49 votes)!!!
(Everyone cheers as  walks on stage)
Wow! My first award outside of the Mental Ward. (waits for laugh) Uh, OK. (Looks on his card) In the past, I read what this site had to say, ever since Season 4. I never wrote here cause I felt that cows had to be the plotline. (Waits for another laugh) Gee, you're silent. Then, during Season 5, I decided to try, And... writing just took off to me. I now write for many sites, including my own. Well, I'd like to thank a few friends for this award. Thank you, Big J, for giving me ideas on... stuff. Thanks also to UDX for helping me on my site. Also, dear thanks go to Hmmdaggy (Miyu), for panicking about when I don't update and all that stuff. My next episode: The Smash Attack Games 2, will be my next episode here. Now with that said, I'm going to McDonalds.
( leaves)
And presenting "Best Veteran Author" is one of the archive's honorary writers, Ian Pugh.

(LOUD cheers as  comes onstage)
Wow, thanks everyone! This award goes to authors who have been around a bit longer and have plenty of episodes to their credit. One of our nominees has written an episode in each of BOTVGH's 6 seasons, and all four have something planned for this season. Here are the nominees:
 Not pictured
 
H Cuz
Matt Broussard
Sean Kelly
UDX
This one was a heated 3-way race for a while. In the end, H Cuz received 36 votes, while Sean Kelly finished second with 27.
Thanks, everyone! I usually don't plan my episodes and write them; I just get an idea all of a sudden, and start writing. Then I just see what comes out. Usually my eps are written months before they go up.... though this one is an exception, of course. As you may know, authors like Sean and UDX specialize in writing episodes with gripping storylines. I find that I'm funnier when I don't have a plot to worry about.... Yet I stay away (mostly) from falling cows and Pokémon. In fact, I'm not going to use falling objects of any kind in my eps this season... welllll... maybe once (grins). And I'm trying to get away from relentless Cranky-bashing. In any case, this season I'm returning to a formula that won an award last year..... keep an eye out for the 3rd Annual BOTVGH Olympics!!
Boy that was a long acceptance speech.
Now let's move on to awards given out to the characters. First, here's Goku to present "Best Cameo Appearance".

( comes onstage)
This award is given to characters who appeared in only one or two episodes. Three of the nominees have already been re-used this season, and another one will appear later in the year. So let's take a look at the nominees....
Bass
Fat Lady
"Jet Force Gemini" cast
(Pictured: Juno)
Master Hand
Pit
The Rock
The Rock got a lot of votes early and finished with 26, but the winner, with 34 votes... Master Hand!!
( comes on stage)
Well, well. I won an award. How ironic. How wonderfully ironic. As you know, I appeared in Matt Broussard's Christmas special, "The Christmas of Total Chaos". I tried to blow up this island -- THIS VERY ISLAND -- with a bogus Christmas tree, but obviously, the video game heroes foiled my plan. So here I am, winning an award for failing to blow up an island!!!
(Crowd applauds)
................Morons.
( leaves the stage)

And now to present "Best Recurring Character", in a special appearance... Cow King, with Frost Man.
( and  go on stage)
Move over, shorty!!
Well, I really shouldn't be presenting an award I was nominated for. In fact, I probably shouldn't be here at all... but since I won this award last year, I guess it made sense for me to present it this year. These characters aren't main characters, but they still appear fairly regularly. These are the nominees:
Blob
Cow
King
Kamek
Mr. Red
Eyed Guy
Samurai
Pizza Cats
The South
Park kids
Team
Rocket
UDX
The runner-up, Kamek, got 17 votes... and the winner is Team Rocket (22 votes)!!
(Team Rocket comes onstage)
You love me, you really do love me!!
We must be better villains than we're given credit for!
Why don't you two admit it? The only reason we won is because the Pokémon craze is still going strong! We're just reaping the benefits of the Pokémon franchise!

***BASH!!!*** ***WHAM!!!***
Ouch......
Don't pay any attention to him, he's probably just mad over not winning "Best Pokémon Character".
Jessie, shouldn't we do our motto?
Why not provide a link to it here?
We have an audio file of our motto?!
(recovering) Hey, it can be a pain to write it all out.
In any case, thank you all for voting for us!! With your support, maybe someday we'll get that Pikachu!!
PIKA!!!! {MUFFINS!!!!}
Shut up! You had your chance already!!!
Well, thanks everyone.

(Team Rocket leaves the stage)
And now, the category which drew the most attention last year, "Best Main Character"! Bass?
( comes on stage)

( First off, a note to Mega Man: You weren't nominated!! Nyah!!!
Oh, shut up! I would've been a recurring character at best, anyway!
(ignoring him) This award goes to characters who are in most, if not all episodes. Oddly enough, all the nominees except Cranky and Dr. Wily are from Mario games. Here they are:
Bowser
Cranky
Dr. Wily
Luigi
Mario
Peach
Yoshi
This category was very close, as expected... but our winner (29 votes) is Mario!! Our runner-up, Cranky Kong, had 26 votes!
(Lots of cheers are heard as  comes onstage)
THREE VOTES?!
You led most of the way..... but then a bunch of people voted for Mario.
Nooooooooo!! I was SO CLOSE!!!!!
Thanks to everyone who voted for me, first of all!! And thanks to everyone who's played my games and read BOTVGH! I've been here in BOTVGH, stuck on this island, since the very first episode, and I've been in almost every single episode.... putting up with Cranky, or at least trying to....
HEY!!!
In fact, I had the very first line in BOTVGH history. I've survived Cranky, Dr. Wily, Wario, falling cows and various other objects, and a few authors who aren't exactly big fans of mine. But now, it's all paid off.... And although I hope to get off this island, I'll probably still be here for Season 7, 8, and so on....
..............I better stop before I get depressed. Thanks for the votes, everyone. (goes back to his seat)
And now, let's move on to awards for individual episodes. First, here's Santa Claus with the results for "Best Christmas Special"!!
( comes on stage)

Ho ho ho! The holidays are a time of joy and cheer, especially when the BOTVGH holiday specials go up!! (Although I seem to get kidnapped in each one....) Anyway, the nominees were...
Dr. Wily's TV Device
The Christmas of the Same Proportions
The Christmas of Total Chaos
The winner is The Christmas of Total Chaos (52 votes), followed by The Christmas of the Same Proportions (29 votes)!!
(Matt Broussard steps up to receive the award)
Hohoho!! I have such cheap, cheap, dialogue. (cheesy smile)

Matt: Wow......gosh. I'd like to thank everyone at the Academy for---

BAH!!!

Matt: I first read BOTVGH at the end of the first season. I remember spending--I can't remember how long---reading--

BAH!!!

Mama-mia! What's your problem, Cranky?!

This is the fellow responsible for those doggone, boring, Christmas thing-a-ma-jigs.

Episodes?

Yeah!! Those things.

Sigh......

Didn't you enjoy one bit of our past few Christmases, Cranky?

NO!!!!

Did you enjoy the season?

NO!!!!

The month of December?

NO!!!!

Holding me hostage on top of your roof?

YEP!!!!

OK...... OK, so the one other thing I liked about past few Christmases was the visits from Miyamoto, Zelda, and Pit.....

ZELDA?!?!? Did you say ZELDA?!?!?!?!?

(Red smoke fumes from the pores of 's face)

Yes..........Zelda!!!

(bams his head against the seat in front of him) This isn't even funny anymore.

AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me show you something funnier than this.

AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

( takes off his nose and plops his face into a bowl of chocolate pudding)

I tell ya, that's some good stuff, that J-E-L-L-O!

You see, that's not even funny. I'm going to drown myself... Maybe we'll get more readers.

Does anyone hear me?!? I'm screaming "AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!"!

( heads off towards the ocean)

Bye, Mario!

(Suddenly, someone taps  from behind)

Heya Peachy!! Hey Cranky.

I want a hamburger.

And now, ladies and gents, would be a proper time to announce.............. now, hold your breaths, because this could be somewhat of a shock....

Then why should we hold our breaths?

(whacks  with his cane) Shut up. Hey, it's been a while since I used this cane...... more fun than I remember. Ah, well, anyway.... I hereby announce... hereby and not thenby and whereby, whoby, and whyby, but hereby announce thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatt........................ drumroll, please.

Only if there's a hamburger with it.

I'll do the drumroll!!

( flexes his muscles, then starts to beat his chest)

OW!!!! Why'd that hurt, Matt?

Matt: Because I wanted it to. Mwahahaha!!!

I don't like you.

Martin: I'll do it. (A drumroll sound spontaneously starts up)

Princess Zelda and I are engaged to be wed......... THIS SEASON, AS A BIG CLIFF-HANGER SEASON FINALE!!!!

WHAT?!??!?!

Everyone else: WHAT!??!?

I've dated several of the strongest, sweetest heroes in the galaxy, and none of them are as charming and rich as my sweet Cranky here!

Call me Donkey Kong, Zeldy.

"Zeldy?"

I thought we were still together, Zelda!!

Well.....we sorta still are......for now.

Huh? What do you mean?

Hamburgers are a good food.
Matt, stop this---this is an awards ceremony!! An awards ceremony, for Chef Boyardee's sake!!! Not a time to conjure up insane plot devices!!

Matt: (smiling, jokingly) It's too late. My wrath is upon you all. Hahahah.
A hamburger is something that I want now. It would be delicious and good.


HOW CAN YOU AND ZELDA GET MARRIED!??

We both agree that Nintendo has fallen, and the games of lore are long gone.

Startling revelation!! Cranky thinks that new Nintendo games are dumb!!

Matt: Ahem!! As I was saying..... thanks to everyone for your support! When writing my third Christmas BOTVGH, I was nervous as heck, because I saw how many votes I had gotten last year, and I didn't want it to fail anyone who liked the previous ones. I was really proud of my second Christmas special; a little too proud, because as a result, I put my standards way too high, and A Christmas of Total Chaos didn't turn out exactly how I wanted it to, the way Season 4's did.... and the deadline was getting scary, and I had a million worries. So thanks to everyone for this award, especially Martin and H Cuz, because they were cool enough to waste their time posting my huge, huge, scary, scary, oh-my-gosh-that's-long-BOTVGH!! ;) How you guys get all that HTML done so quickly is a wonder. Thanks!! Oh, and a recommendation for anyone who wants write any sort of Christmas special: Drink tons of eggnog!!

Matt: I mean tons!! Truckloads of it!! Get fat!! 'Cuz that's what Christmas is all about, right, Wario?

Right!!!

Matt: Wario?

Yeah?

Matt: You're not here.

I'm not?

Matt: No, you're not. You're "elsewhere".

OH..............rrrriiiiiiiiight.

( vanishes off into "elsewhere")

Guys...........did I say that we were engaged?

Everyone: Yes.

We're not engaged just yet. I meant we're "going to be engaged". Soon. Just watch. The episode's comin', folks. And it might not even be this season. We're gonna shock everyone. Just wait and see. Heheheheh!!! We're engaged to be engaged. Anyone who tries to figure that out's head will fall off.

('s head falls off)

Just keep your ears open, readers!!

(imagines living on the same island as ) NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Matt: Good night, everybody!!


There you have it, folks. You heard it here first: Cranky and Zelda are engaged to be engaged. Now, with "Most Original Plot", here's the original, the one, the only.... Jumpman.
( comes onstage)
Hey, wait a minute! How can Jumpman be here? He's just a past version of Mario!!
It's BOTVGH. You're safer if you don't try to figure it out.
This award goes to the episodes whose plots were the most innovative and/or unique. Here are the nominees:
Fad Attack
The Good Old Days
Mad Mr. Mario's Magnificent Mind-Melding Machine
Renovations
The Search for the Plot
Strict BOTVGH
This one was no contest. "Mad Mr. Mario" won with 46 votes; the runner-up, "Search for the Plot", had 19.

( comes on stage)

Thank you, thank you BOTVGH voters. I would like to thank everyone who voted for me in this award, as well as Sean Kelly who wrote the second half of my episode. I love to write for BOTVGH, and whenever I do, I always try to think "What is something that they haven't done on BOTVGH yet?" I am very pleased to recieve the award for best plot, and I hope to recieve many awards in the future! (Ehehehe)
( walks offstage)
And now, here to present "Best Short" is the genius who created Mario and many of our favorite Nintendo characters.... Mr. Shigeru Miyamoto.
(Everyone, especially , cheers loudly as  walks onstage)
Thanks, everyone. With all the excitement that the regular episodes can generate, many people forget about the shorts. Maybe that's why this wasn't a category in last year's awards. In any case, here are the nominees for "Best Short":
The Anti-Writer Device
Bowser's First Episode
Cow Drop
Doomsday
The Joy of Being an Author
And the resounding winner is "Bowser's First Episode" (55 votes), with "The Anti-Writer Device" a distant second (19 votes).
( comes on stage in his writer outfit ())
First of all, I know I'm supposed to thank the voters or something, but I'm evil, so I won't. Many of you remember what inspired me to write a BOTVGH episode..... it was in "The Search for the Plot", and H Cuz (the writer of that ep) couldn't come up with any ideas. That's when I realized that I was born to write BOTVGH episodes..... And I did a much better job than H Cuz or anyone else. But nobody else agreed, and I ended up being banned from writing any more episodes. I have to thank.... nobody, since none of the characters involved cooperated, so I take all the credit. If you don't like it.... TOUGH!!! Bwahahahahahhh!!! Maybe I can convince H Cuz or Martin to let me do an update sometime, or somethin' like that.
( starts to leave, but then remembers something)
Oh, Mr. Miyamoto? About that stardom game you promised me.....
We're, errr.... working on it.

( and  walk off stage)
And finally, here to present the award for Best Overall Season 5 episode..... it's none other than Jimmy, the Talking Thanksgiving Ham!!!
All: .................
Jimmy the Talking Thanksgiving Ham: Thank you! I'm honored to be the first-ever resurrected talking pig meat to present an award here at BOTVGH!! The category, "Best Overall 5 Episode", needs no explanation...... so let's take a look at the nominees!!
The 1999 BOTVGH Awards
The 2nd Annual BOTVGH Olympics
Fad Attack
The Good Old Days
Lassie: the BOTVGH Episode
Mad Mr. Mario's Magnificent Mind-Melding Machine
The Search for the Plot
Strict BOTVGH
And the winner is.... "Mad Mr. Mario's Magnificent Mind-Melding Machine" (32 votes)!! Our runner-up, coincidentally, is last year's Awards (20 votes)!
( comes on stage)
WOW! It is a big honor to be the co-winner of Best Episode of Season 5. This story actually came out of the blue. Wario the III e-mailed me asking if I could write the conclusion to the Mad Mr. Mario episode since in the storyline if you recall features Wario the III switching minds with Luigi. Since the mind-meld plot basically made it easy for Dr. Wily to take over (as an author) so I decided that in my part I would erase what has happened. So far a lot of the episodes I have written for BOTVGH involved time travel. Starting with A Whole Lot of Trouble in Time, to the award winning Dr. Wily's Time Attacks to The Quest to Save the Past which will go up later in the season. Well thanks once again for helping me getting my first (co-)best episode award and who knows maybe next year I will be up here once again!
( returns to his seat)
Well, I guess that wraps it up for this year's awards! Next week....
Hey!
What?
How do they cram all that graham?
What're you going on about now, you stupid creampuff?
(ignoring him) At the end of Episode 1, it said we'd find out how they cram all that graham.
Sorry. The narrator can go off on a tangent sometimes.
Oh.
Anyway, next week we have a guest appearance by Cher. See ya!

THE END
(And so a crisis has been averted and the Awards have been presented on schedule. But many questions still linger....)

Martin: Such as......?
(Well, um..... hold on, it'll come to me.....)
Martin: The ep's over. Go home, OK?
(*grumble* Fine.....)
Martin: That's all folks!
