Pacman

Ever wonder what the storyline behind Pacman was? Maybe this hidden microphone recording will fill you in.

Blinky: OK Morrice, since Pinky is gone we really need you to step up. This isn’t Pac-Man Jr. here.
Morrice: G g g gone? W w w what happened to Pinky?
Blinky: Oh stop being scared, Pinky just got a leading role in a big show. He made the big time. If you work hard here you might too. Quick shaking.
Morrice: O o o ok. So w w what happened to Inky? Did he get a new role too.
Blinky: <pause> Wellll, Inky had a bit of an accident. You know those teleport tunnels at the side of the set?
Morrice: Y y yes?
Blinky: One of those got disconnected somehow and Inky didn’t know. We never found the body. But don’t worry about that. Fred, the teleporter technician, will never make that mistake again. Anyway, Smitty has done a great job replacing Inky. He and Clyde have worked together before. So you got your role down?
Morrice: Y y yes. I’m play playing an evil cheese ghost trying to give Pac-Man severe indi indigestion. If he gets a lac lactose pill then he can eat me for a few seconds and I have to run around like a headless - ick - chicken. I I don’t get it. Why do I have to play play dumb whe when he eats the pill?
Blinky: Because it’s in the script! Don’t try to be creative here.

Director: OK people, it’s almost time to start. Places, places everyone. Where’s Pac-Man? Sue, get him from his trailer.
Sue:
Why do I get treated like a second class ghost just because I’m female. You never make Blinky go get Pac-Man.
Director: Shutup Sue or I’ll hire a teenage pop music star to replace you.
