In the not-too-distant future --
Somewhere in Cyberspace. --
There was a binome waiter
Who worked at a slowfood place.

Created a contest for ReBoot fans,
To write a short story of Mainframe land.
He read all of the fanfic submissions
And decided to mst them all - with the authors permission.

(Mwhahahahahahaaa!!)

"I'll mst their ReBoot stories
Because it's really fun! (La La La)
I'll tear the ReBoot Shorts apart
Then I'll stick out my tongue and run! (La La La)"

Now keep in mind this is all in fun
And AW loves you all. (La La La)
Now sit back and enjoy this read
We're all going to have a ball!

Robot Role Call!

Cambot (Looking good!)
Gypsy (Watch it!)
Tom Servo (Why us?)
Crooooow! (I'm happy!)

If you're wondering what took AW so long
'Cause it took him such a long time. (La La La)
Just repeat to yourself, "Hey! What do I care?
As long as the theme song rhymes!!"

For...
Mystery ReBoot Theater 4000!

(Entering the SOL. View of Mike Nelson wearing carribian shorts.)

Mike: Hello all and welcome to another special addition of MRT4K. Today on the SOL, we're celebrating the first edition of Al's Waiter's ReBoot short story contest. Although, that was two and a half years ago... We've just been a little busy, that's all. It's entitled "ReBoot Shorts", and it features badly editted photos of Mainframer's in shorts.

(Crow, who's wearing boxers with little chain saws covering them, comes into view.)

Crow: I think it's a neat title for a contest!

(Tom, with boxer briefs on his dome, follows Crow on.)

Tom: Yeah, gives me a good excuse to bring out my underwear collection. Heh heh.

Mike: The whole idea of the contest was that the authors were given titles to exsisting movies and had to write a short ReBoot fic that fit the title.

Tom: Loads of fun!

Crow: Now, to all of our wonderful, faithful viewers of Mystery ReBoot Theater 4000 out there, are ready to read this because they have read the entries and know who won! And who got second place and who got third place...

Tom: But, probably have forgotten, but who cares? We're visiting them again.

Mike: So just for fun, we, the crew of the SOL are going to poke fun at the submitted stories plus a little poking at Al's Waiter's example short. Shhh! Don't tell him!

Crow: We'd like to start off by thanking all of the authors who loaned us their submittions solely for this purpose of amusment for others! Kudos to you! Your entries will go into Cambot's collection of video tapes and will be immortized forever! And to Timesprite - who was the only author that didn't want her story to be put in the theater of the SOL - it's your loss.

Tom: Timesprite said that she thought that MSTings should only be done to bad fanfiction, which is true in most cases, but not in this case.

Crow: And not in the case of any of the "Unoffical ReBoot Awards" ceremonies either. That's always fun!

Tom: Timesprite's story did get second place in the contest.

Crow: Shhh! That's not the point!

(Bob walks on pulling at his boxer shorts.)

Bob: I think my shorts are too big.

Crow: What do you care? You're going to be sitting down.

Tom: Come on! Let's get in the theatre!

(Tom zooms off.)

Mike: Okay, here we go!

(Light and sirens go off.)

All: WE'VE GOT SHORTS SIGN!!

ReBoot Shorts MSTing Begins
