On Sorboperdy tonight our contestants are:
From South Carolina (I hope I'm right) we have, Kelly residant Strifette; from Texas, Melite, List Goddess; from Tennessee, Nannyboo and from the east coast, Freya.
Welcome and let's start Sorboperdy. Here's your host: Salmoneus...
Salmoneus: "Our categories tonight are:
*Sov his life and time
*Do you know your boo boo scenes
*Kiss and tell
*Side kicks and gods
*Where in Greece
*Mythology (of course obvious category LOL)
Kelly you pick first."
"Mythology for 100$, Sal"
"Allrighthdy, How many winged children did Ares and Aphrodite have?"
Melite rings in. "Yes, Melite?"
"None?"
Sal smiles. "That is correct. Hephastus is Cupid's father, NOT Ares.
Melite, choose again."
"I'll try...Kiss and Tell for $100, please, Sal."
"Oh, frisky Amazons today! Well, this is a video category, which means that we'll show you a video, and you have to tell us who is kissing who. If you will just look at your monitors...." (kissing scene from "Unchained Heart"plays).
Melite rings in again. "Who is Hercules and Xena?"
Sal beams. "Very good. Pick again."
"I'll try... sidekicks and gods for $100."
"This annoying little sidekick often has trouble communicating with his uncle."
Kelly pounces on the buzzer. "Who is Strife?!!!" she yelled, unable to suppress her squeaking laughter.
Sal blinked at her reaction. "Well, okay, Kelly, you don't have to yell. Yes, you're right. Choose again."
"I'll try... Sov: His Life and Time for $200, please Sal."
"Okay. Who is the goddess of music in Sov's universe?"
Freya goes " I know this, I know this..." but forgets to buzz in.
BUZZ!!!!
"Yes, Nannyboo?"
"It's Hera, of course."
"Right. Choose a category please?"
"Do you know your boo boo scene for 500$, Sal"
"Okay for 500$ On what arm was Herk injured in ..."
BUZZ!!!!!
"Yes Melite?"
"Mercenary"
"Yes it's in Mercenary but not the right answer. I'll finish for the rest of the contestant. On what arm was Herk injured in ..."
BUZZ!!!!!
"Yes, Freay?"
"Euh, the left arm?"
"No and please let me finish the question. Now On what arm was Herk injured in ..."
BUZZ!!!!
"Yes, Nannyboo?"
"It was in a ship, right?"
"No and pleassssse let me finish the question. Now On what arm was Herk injured in Mercenary?"
BUZZ!!!!
"Yes Kelly?"
"The right arm."
" Good answer. Choose again?"
"I'll take Side Kick and gods for 300$, Sal"
"Allrighty. If it's walk like a hen and ...."
BUZZ!!!!!
Kelly yells "Discord!!!!"
"Good answer. Choose again"
"I"ll take Where in Greece for 100$"
"Where were Herk and Iolaus going in A Star to guide them?"
BUZZZZZZ!!!!!!
Melite jumped up and down " I know. NORTH!!!"
"Right answer."
Now we are at the midday way point in the game the score is:
Kelly: 900$; Melite: 300$; Nannyboo : 200$ and Freya, well you need to catch up."
Now a word from our sponsors...
First commercial:
"Greetings all. We at Falafel enterprises are proud to present our new product : The FALAFAMETER. Perfect to make eggs à la Falafel. Available at Sorbo Mart very soon. Infomercial into pre production. Interested? Our special guest will be GHerk himself. Contact: Salmoneus at 555-EGGS.
Second commercial:
A castle at night. A loud siren. A shadow. A bright spot directed at a man.
"Your security system failed our test. I’m with Autolycus alarms. Protection without measures for every kind of treasures. Here are some of our satisfied customers : The Qualas collection, Artemis’ temple inc, Hermes House of Mud Wrestling. Even the King of Thieves uses us. Contact us at : 555-AUTO. We will not regret it.
Salmoneus waited for the signal and off he was " We are back. At this time of the game, we talk to our contestants and learn a little about them. So we have Freya from the east coast. I have learn that you are called "Fantasy Angel" Any reasons?"
Freya blushing a little said "Yes. Some of my close friends gave me that nick because I make their heartache go away with the help of a little Sorbo fantasy."
"Yes and she’s the best" shouted Danaan from the crowd.
Sal chuckled. "I see you brought along some friends. Good. Now we have Nannyboo from Tennessee. That was some tornado you had this spring. Now I heard you are quite the talented artist. Anywhere we could see your work?"
Nannyboo was all grace and poise. Smiling she answered " Yes, well the tornado. Quite a scare. It passed right by our offices. Chopped off the heads of the tulips. And yes my work can be seen at Shauna’s wonderful web page "Hercules playground".
"I have seen your rendition of the wedding pic. You have talent my dear. Do you have an agent? Here’s my card. Next we have Melite, the Sorbo list Goddess."
Melite laughed and said "Oh, you heard of me… I mean us…. I mean the Sorbo list…" Melite was now a nice shade of red.
"Yes, we have, dear List Goddess. We have. So I hear you have quite an extensive collection of Herk posters?"
Melite barely recovering nodded and said "Yes, I do. I even purchased the stand up."
"Okay. Good for you." Sal shook his head trying to see the connection between posters and the stand up. Saw none and moved on to the last contestant Kelly.
"Well Mz Kelly. You are a Soviak extraordinaire. I have it under good authority that you are coming out with an authorize biography to the Sovereign. Can you give us a preview?"
"Well, I would really like too, Sal. But I’m under strict orders from the man himself not to divulge any secrets yet. But you can expect blood, lust, treason, tears and laughter. A little erratic behavior and lots and lots of fun."
"So when can we expect this literary gem?"
"Sometime in the fall, Sal. Sometime in the fall."
"Now, it’s time to go back to the game. Melite since you were the last one to ring in you are in control."
"I’ll take "Do you know your boo boo scenes" for 300, Sal."
"Good choice. Here’s the question. Who shot Herk with an arrow of hind’s blood?"
Freya rang in before Kelly. "Who is Strife?" Freya was mighty please with herself she had beaten the resident Strifette to the buzzer.
"Good answer. You are finally on the board Freya. You pick the next question."
"I’ll take "Where in Grece" for 400, Sal."
"Where were Autolycus and Iolaus found chained together?"
All four contestants looked at one another. " Oh, gross. A "One fowl day" question. Who wants it?" asked Nannyboo.
"Oh I’ll take it. I reviewed the episode I can answer a question on it." And Melite rang in.
Sal was stunned and speechless.
"What is a cage in a circus, Sal."
Sal regained his composure and said " Right. You are correct. You have the points. Pick again."
"Euh, if I may, Sal, why don’t you give a 100$ to each contestant. So to be fair" said Melite. "And I choose Mythology for 400."
"All right. It’s irregular but why not. A 100$ each it is. And the question in Mythology is….. A Sorbo double. Now Melite you have 400$. What do you wager?"
"I’ll wager 500$, Sal."
"Confident are you, dear" quipped Nannyboo.
"Always, Boo. Always" replied Melite.
"Okay the Sorbo daily double is "What mythological being did Hercules fight in "Once a hero" ?
"What are…" Melite turned and smiled at Nannyboo "skeletons, Sal. What are skeletons. Love that episode."
"Right answer. Pick again."
"I’ll take "Side kick and gods for 500, Sal."
"Okay, we are playing for high stakes now. Who wanted Iolaus for his side kick?"
Kelly buzzed. "Who is…. looking around she hesitated… Joxer?"
"Yes. Correct. Pick a category?"
"Sov and its time for 100, Sal"
"Sov is short for?"
Freya and Kelly both jumped on the buzzer. Both answered in unison : "What is SOVEREIGN!!!"
"Euh, you can’t both have it right. Something is wrong with the system. I’m sorry I must disqualify both of you…"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE ARE DISQUALIFIED. I’M VERY DISAPOINTED…" was heard in the stand.
