Scratchy Thanks for taking the time to meet with us, Krusty and Mr. Meyers.
Roger Myers Jr. - Happy For my two biggest stars, Itchy & Scratchy?! Of course, anything I can do for you, just say the word.
Itchy We were wondering if we could scale back on the mallet-to-the-head bits?
Roger Myers Jr. - Angry Absolutely not, you scum-sucking weasels!
Krusty - Angry Without the constant threat of permanent memory loss, your cartoons are worthless!
Scratchy - Confused But isn't there a way to… to… what was I saying?
Itchy - Happy What about bringing Poochie back to take some of the heat off us?
Roger Myers Jr. - Angry Bring Poochie back?! Kids hate him! He symbolizes when a game -- I mean SHOW -- has jumped the shark!
Scratchy - Annoyed Until you bring him back, we're on strike!
Krusty - Angry I don't need you! I can carry this show all by myself!

Krusty - Scared You've got to get Poochie back!
Roger Myers Jr. Hey Frink, you're a huge nerd, do you know how we can revive Poochie?
Professor Frink After that, how could I refuse? We'll need to get some scripts to feed into my re-animation machine.
Krusty - Annoyed I'm not paying some jerk writers to sit around eating crappy Chinese food while they churn out lazy scripts.
Roger Myers Jr. - Happy Why pay professional writers when we can just hold a “Bring Poochie Back To Life” screenwriting contest for free?
Roger Myers Jr. - Happy et's use our fans' passion against them!

After completing the Intro
Lisa - Eyeroll Oh brother, they're having a “Bring Poochie Back To Life” script contest. Could they be any more desperate?<

Homer - Sad Poochie.
Bart - Sneaky What's this file on your computer labeled “POOCHIE FAN FICTION”?
Homer - Scared It's, uh, an elaborate plan to kill your mother and collect the insurance money!
Marge - Eyeroll It's not a plan to kill me. You talk about Poochie in your sleep.
Marge This could be your chance to bring YOUR version of Poochie to life.

Sea Captain Yarr! In my version of Poochie, he's a LAKE captain, who's got TWO squinty eyes, and he's a misunderstood genius. Also, I based it on myself.
Comic Book Guy - Happy In my script, Poochie is bitten by radioactive Peter Parker and gets the ability to take competent photographs.

Comic Book Guy The scripts are supposed to be about Poochie coming back to life.
Brockman What about “Life To Poochie”?
Comic Book Guy - Annoyed Now your pun has lost its whole frame of reference!
After finishing the tasks
Krusty - Surprised There's hundreds of these script contest entries!
Krusty I haven't seen stacks of paper this high since I made all that money licensing my name to that paper company.
Krusty - Thoughtful Who's gonna read through these?
Roger Myers Jr. I assumed you were…
Homer - Cautious Um, excuse me? Have you picked a winner yet?
Krusty We haven't even looked at--
Roger Myers Jr. - Sneaky As a matter of fact, we just picked the winner… and it's you!
Homer - Surprised Me?!
Roger Myers Jr. - Sneaky Your script was so good, we're making you head writer!
Homer - Cautious But the only thing I've ever written is a Grammy-winning album and a movie starring Mel Gibson!
Roger Myers Jr. Don't worry, kid, you'll do great. You can start by reading all these scripts to pick out the best parts.
