PB&J in '82

Just a random PB&J Otter fan script.

Script
(PB&J Otter are at a suburban location in 1982)

Peanut: Where are we? And how come there's a video arcade?

(a mole wearing a mullet drives by in a 1981 Corvette)

Mole: You're in the year 1982. Video games are all the rage.

Peanut: Oh, that explains it.

Mole: Anyway.... (turns up the car speakers, which blare out The Human League's "Don't You Want Me")

Jelly: Time to fit in with the times, you two.



(PB&J Otter, now sporting '80s accessories, enter the video arcade. The arcade's owner, a rat, looks at the Otter trio)

Arcade Owner: Hello there! Welcome to my arcade. If you wanna come here, you have to give me 15 boxtops for 50 tokens.

(Peanut takes out 15 boxtops and gives them to the owner)

Jelly:  That was all our money, Peanut. You blew it on tokens? They were meant to buy something that could help us find mama and daddy.

Peanut: Sorry, I couldn't help it.

Jelly: Oh man! After this, how are we gonna find mama and daddy?

Peanut: We'll still find them.

Jelly: I don't know. What if something happened to them?

Peanut: They're still in this dimension, but they'd probably look like they came from 1982.

Jelly: That's true.

Arcade Owner: Aren't you going to take these tokens?

Peanut: Oh, sorry. Thanks for the tokens, sir.

Arcade Owner: Anytime. Have fun.

(PB&J walk over to an arcade cabinet titled "Bass-Man")

Peanut: Bass-Man? Hmmm... I guess I'll give it a go.

(Peanut inserts a token into the slot and pushes one of the two START buttons. The screen displays a black background with a brown outline of a maze. A large green circle representing Bass-Man, many white dots representing bugs, and four smaller green circles representing smaller fish take up all of the maze except for the center. The center contains a gray rectangular outline representing a cage, which holds three snake sprites, one red, one blue, and one yellow. A pink snake sprite is outside the cage. A brief 8-bit jingle plays)

Peanut: Alright, here I go...

(Once the game begins, Peanut moves the joystick right to move the Bass-Man character right)

Peanut: What do I do?

Jelly: I think you're supposed to gobble up the dots. That's what you're doing now.

Peanut: Oh, yeah. Guess I should keep going.

Jelly: Peanut, look out! That thing is gonna get you!

Peanut: What? Uh oh!

(Cut to the game screen. The Bass-Man character runs into the blue snake and disappears)

PB&J: Awww...
