A set widens up to reveal Ludwig with some tools next to Fracktail. A sea of nerds cheer in front of him, though the majority of the nerds (and by majority I mean all of them except E. Gadd, Francis, and Mario, who isn�t even a nerd) are cardboard figurines with voice speakers duck-taped to the back.

Ludwig: Hello, television! Welcome to the Ludwig show�s first airing! As a special way to get us started, I decided we would look at the circuitry within everyone�s favorite dragon� Fracktail!

E. Gadd: Sounds great, but didn�t he experience corruption in his central databank, and had his threat level upgrade to jelly roll number one?!

Francis: JELLY ROLL NUMBER ONE? HOLY KITTENS ON A STICK, THAT�S RARE!

Mario: I like jelly rolls.

Ludwig: Exactly! The only witnesses of Fracktail�s rumored jelly roll number one damage are an idiot, a butterfly thing that disappeared off the face of the planet, and a hand that hasn�t spoken since Mario took him out of the chest it was in for 1,500 years. With a little archeological dig, I found this guy. Or something like that. Now stop interrogating me so we can look inside. As for kids watching this show, don�t do this at home!

Ludwig uses a jack hammer on Fracktail�s nose.

Ludwig: All right, in here we have Fracktail�s motherboard, where-

Mario: If there�s a motherboard, where�s the daddyboard, the brotherboard, the sisterboard, and the annoying neighbor who never stops asking for cups of sugar-board?

Ludwig: Erm.. They�re in the back.

E. Gadd: Well, move on, move on! If we�ve found the motherboard already, who knows what information we can retrieve!

Ludwig: Right. Let�s see what we can find in here. OH MY DAD!

Francis: I prefer believing in Shigeru Miyamoto, instead, but what�d you find?

E. Gadd: I bet he found the source of the Jelly Roll number one threat level!

Mario: I think he found a grilled cheese sandwich.

Ludwig: No, I just shocked myself touching the root of the antenna.

Francis: But according to my calculations, you shouldn�t be electrocuted by wiring in a broken robot, right?

E. Gadd: Actually, Jelly Roll number one threat level is rumored to keep its electronic charge in the area where the cause of it is forced in.

Ludwig: Guys, don�t get your hopes up, it�s probably just me triggering a spark. The only thing that can upgrade a device to Jelly Roll number one is when the 404 computer hamsters can�t be found, and remember, Mario is the ONLY witness that can actually speak to us. He probably just spat out gibberish.

Mario: Ooh, I like rubber fish!

Ludwig: Exactly.

Francis: If what you say is true, then you won�t be able to find any 404 computer hamsters if Mario was actually right.

Ludwig: You guys are going to make me search, aren�t you?

Mario: Egg zacktly!

Ludwig: Fine. I�ll go in through the mouth.

Francis: Can I have your insect collection when you die?

Ludwig: NO.

Mario: That�s my line from Hotel Mario!

E. Gadd: Now boys, let�s give Ludwig a little more support.

Ludwig: THANK Y-

E. Gadd: I don�t need anything of yours, but I�ll be sure to come to your funeral.

Ludwig: I�m going to go in just to get away from all of you!

Ludwig goes in, and after five minutes of searching, which you don�t know about because those minutes were commercials, Ludwig comes out of the hole he made previously with the jack hammer.

Francis: DARN IT, HE�S ALIVE.

E. Gadd: I WANTED HIS LUCKY WRENCH.

Mario: I WANTED HIS CHOCOLATE.

Ludwig: IGNORING COMMENTS� I didn�t find any.

Francis: What?

Ludwig: I didn�t find any.

E. Gadd: Preposterous.

Francis: All the 404 computer hamsters were gone. I found a 404 computer aardvark, though.

Ludwig lifts it out of the hole. Fracktail turns on.

Fracktail: 404 COMPUTER HAMSTERS NOT FOUND. THREAT LEVEL UPGRADED TO JELLY ROLL NUMBER ONE� DANGER. DANGER. SEARCHING FOR 404 COMPUTER AARDVARKS� 404 COMPUTER AARDVARKS NOT FOUND. THREAT LEVEL UPGRADED TO JELLY ROLL LEVEL TWO. WAY TO GO, GENIUS.

Ludwig: I�m just happy we got this on film.

Ludwig is attacked by what seems to be a mob of Frackles, and the camera falls over on its side, followed by a disconnection.
