Pinky & the Fog

WHO KNOWS WHAT BADNESS LURKS IN THE THOUGHTS OF MEN? THE MIST KNOWS.I HAVE THE POWER TO BECLOUD MEN'S MINDS, FOR I AM THE MIST! HA HA HA!

UH! NARF! I STILL CAN'T GET A PICTURE ON THIS THING, BRAIN.

QUIET, PINKY.I HAVE ALMOST COMPLETED HONING MY RAPIER-KEEN MENTAL ABILITIES.

ZOUNDS, BRAIN! HONING! WHOA! [THUD] IS THAT GOOD?

YES! FOR NOW, I HAVE THE POWER. FOR I AM THE FOG!

NICE FEDORA, BRAIN, BUT I SEE YOU AS MORE OF A BERET TYPE.

NEVER MIND THE FASHION CRITIQUE, PINKY. TURN OFF THAT RADIO AND I SHALL DEMONSTRATE.

NARF! OH, I LOVE IT WHEN YOU DEMONSTRATE, BRAIN.

BY ALTERING THE FREQUENCIES OF MY VOICE, I AM ABLE TO BEFOG MEN'S MINDS.

BUT HOW? WITH SOME ELECTRONIC GIZMO THINGY?

NO. WITH THESE. IN A MOMENT, YOU WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO SEE ME, FOR I AM THE FOG!

OHH! NEAT VOCAL EFFECT. UH!

I AM COMMENCING TO BEFOG YOUR MIND.

NARF!

YOU CANNOT SEE--YAH!

EGAD, BRAIN! IT WORKED! I CAN'T SEE YOU!

OBVIOUSLY, HE HAS NO MIND TO BEFOG. NOW, IF I COULD ONLY CONCEIVE A METHOD OF HOW TO USE THIS POWER ON MILLIONS OF PEOPLE AT ONCE.

POIT. HA HA HA. THERE YOU ARE, BRAIN! EGAD, YOU'RE AS GOOD AS THAT GUY ON THE RADIO.

THE RADIO! OF COURSE! PINKY, ARE YOU PONDERING WHAT I'M PONDERING?

I THINK SO, BRAIN, BUT THE ROCKETTES? I MEAN, IT'S MOSTLY GIRLS ISN'T IT?

PINKY, AREN'T WE RODENTS STIGMATIZED ENOUGH ALREADY? WE WILL SNEAK INTO THE RADIO STATION, TAKING THE PLACE OF THE MIST, SO I CAN BROADCAST MY GENUINE MENTAL POWERS TO MILLIONS OF LISTENERS, BEFOGGING THEIR MINDS UNTIL THEY MAKE ME THEIR LEADER.

YON RADIO TRANSMITTER WILL SOON BROADCAST MY BEFOGGING MESSAGE TO EVERY HOUSEHOLD IN THE WORLD, AND THEN MY DREAM WILL BE REALIZED.

OH! YOU MEAN, YOU'LL FINALLY DANCE WITH THE BALLET RUSSE?

NO, PINKY. THE OTHER DREAM-- WORLD DOMINATION.

OH, RIGHT! THAT DREAM! NARF!

AND NOW WE RETURN TO THE MIST, BROUGHT TO YOU BY PENNSYLVANIA BLUE COAL.

[WOMAN] WHO, WHO ARE YOU?

[MAN] I AM-

THE FOG! I AM BEFOGGING YOUR MIND. CLOSE THIS DOOR. DO YOU HEAR ME? CLOSE THIS DOOR! OPEN THIS DOOR. UNH. OPEN THIS DOOR.

YOU'LL NEVER GET AWAY WITH THIS, CRAZED MADMAN! THE MIST WILL FIND ME!

WELL, IF HE DOES, HE'LL FIND YOU IN THESE CHAINS! HA HA HA!

NO! AAH!

AND THEN, I'LL HIDE YOU IN THIS DARK CELLAR DOWN THIS LONG, LONG FLIGHT OF STAIRS.

NARF! I NEVER KNEW RADIO WAS LIKE THIS, BRAIN.

WHAT DID YOU THINK IT WAS LIKE, PINKY?

OH, YOU KNOW, LIKE A BIG, RED SQUISHY BALL WITH LITTLE NOBBIES ON IT. HA HA! WHO ARE THOSE RIDICULOUS PEOPLE WHO JUST STAND THERE AND READ?

THOSE ARE ACTORS, PINKY.

OH. AND WHO ARE THOSE PEOPLE THAT NO ONE'S PAYING ANY ATTENTION TO, BRAIN?

THOSE ARE THE WRITERS, PINKY. AND TONIGHT, THEY WILL FIND THEIR SCRIPT GREATLY EMBELLISHED. COME. WE MUST GET THROUGH THESE SOUNDPROOF BOOTHS SO THAT I CAN COMMANDEER THAT MICROPHONE. [THUD] WH-- SOUND EFFECTS MAN, YOU CANNOT SEE ME.I AM COMPLETELY INVISIBLE. I AM BEFOGGING YOUR MIND, FOR I AM THE FOG!

NARF! THE MIST!

NO. THE FOG.

NO, BRAIN. LOOK. IT'S THE MIST.

THE JIG IS UP, CRAZED MADMAN, FOR I AM THE MIST!

MIST! SAVE ME! SAVE ME!

[MAN] YOU'RE TOO LATE, MIST. I'M LOCKING YOUR GIRLFRIEND IN MY SECRET DUNGEON.

[MIST] YOU FIEND!

[MAN] THEN, I'M NAILING THE DOOR SHUT! AND TO BE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT THE POOR, PITIFUL LASS CAN'T POSSIBLY ESCAPE, I'M BUILDING A BRICK WALL IN FRONT OF IT.

[MIST] BUT YOU WON'T GET ME, FOR I HAVE BECLOUDED YOUR MIND.

[MAN] THEN I'LL THROW THESE DISHES UNTIL I SMASH YOUR HEAD IN, MIST. HA HA HA!

[MIST] YOU CAN'T GET ME!

NOT EVEN WITH THIS ANVIL? HA HA HA!

[MIST] I DARE YOU TO DO THAT AGAIN.

OH, NO. QUICKLY, PINKY, RUN FOR COVER!

[MAN] YOU'LL NEVER GET OUT OF HERE ALIVE!

[MIST] OH, NO? I TOOK THE PRECAUTION OF CALLING THE CAVALRY! [PLAYING MUSIC] I HEAR THEM COMING NOW! YOU HAVE FORCED ME TO LIVE UP TO MY NAME, MIST.

[WOMAN] A BOMB! A BOMB?

[BRAIN] A BOMB?

[PINKY] HERE'S ONE.

[MIST] FORTUNATELY, I CLEVERLY REROUTED YOUR FUSE SO THAT ALL YOU BLEW UP WAS YOUR OWN LAB!

[MAN] MY LAB!

[WOMAN] MY HERO!

MY HEAD.

AND SO ENDS ANOTHER EPISODE OF THE MIST, BROUGHT TO YOU BY BLUE COAL. GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD COAL.

ALAS, PINKY, I THINK I'VE LOST MY POWERS OF CONCENTRATION.

POIT! DON'T WORRY, BRAIN! YOU'LL COME UP WITH ANOTHER WAY TO BEFOG MEN'S MINDS.

IT LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY ALREADY HAS. TURN THAT THING OFF, PINKY. WE MUST PREPARE FOR TOMORROW NIGHT.

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO TOMORROW NIGHT, BRAIN? WATCH MORE OF THIS EXCITING NEW MEDIUM?

NO, PINKY. THE SAME THING WE DO EVERY NIGHT: TRY TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD! THEY'RE DINKY THEY'RE PINKY AND THE BRAIN, BRAIN, BRAIN, BRAIN, BRAIN.
