''{Music plays, while the camera pans across the inventory. General Skun'ka-pe and Pedro are shown at a table. Marty McFly, and Dank are shown at the bar, while Reginald Van Winslow serves them behind the counter. Nelson Tethers and Max are sitting at a table at the back. Flint Paper is standing in front of a table, rubbing the back of his neck. Mr. Featherly and Constable Dibbins are on the stage area, with Sal standing at the other side talking to Tycho, who is sitting at a table. Morgan LeFly is standing beside him. Theodore Dudebrough and an unknown character are sitting at a table with drinks in front of them. Marzipan is sitting at the next table.}''

''{Cut to a close shot of Strong Sad laying sprawled out on the ground. Screams are heard, and blood runs out from his body.}''

''{Cut to Sam, in his noir outfit from'' They Stole Max's Brain!''.}''

'''SAM:''' It was a Kafkaesque and stormy night. There was a cone of silence around the joint.

''{Cut to Sam in front of the bar, talking to Van Winslow.}''

'''SAM:''' Who is your daddy, and what does he do?

''{Cut to closeup of Van Winslow.}''

'''VAN WINSLOW:''' Well sir, I do fancy myself a map.

''{Cut to the other side of the bar, where Sam is talking to Mr. Featherly, who is standing on counter.}''

'''SAM:''' You look dirtier than a muddy box of chicken strips. Why did you cross the road tonight?

''{Cut to closeup of Mr. Featherly.}''

'''MR. FEATHERLY:''' I got nothing.

''{Cut to Sam walking towards Marzipan, with the camera aimed at the back of Marzipan's head.}''

'''SAM:''' Put your arms where I can see them, murderer!

''{Cut to closeup of Marzipan.}''

'''MARZIPAN:''' Not on the first date, detective!

''{Cut to Sam walking towards TYCHO, with the camera aimed at the back of Tycho's head.}''

'''SAM:''' OK, you're clearly up to no good, put the d20 on the ground, slowly.

''{Cut to closeup of Tycho.}''

'''TYCHO:''' Look here, you odious lout! I haven't killed someone in... at least two days. [#Footnote [1]]

''{Cut to Sam walking towards TYCHO, with the camera aimed at the back of Tycho's head.}''

'''SAM:''' I doubt that!

''{Cut to closeup of Tycho.}''

'''TYCHO:''' It looks like the jig is up! And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for this meddling PAX panel!

''{Tycho pulls at his face. Everyone screams. Cut to Van Winslow who is shown screaming, with a shocked expression on his face, then to General Skun'ka-pe, who also has a shocked expression, then to Mr. Featherly who jumps up in the air and flutters his wings.}''

''{Cut to Tycho's table, where a velociraptor is seen jumping off the table.}''

'''VELOCIRAPTOR''': It was I, a velociraptor!

''{The velociraptor opens its mouth with its tongue hanging out, makes a slightly higher pitched laughing noise, and runs towards the camera with its teeth bared.}''
