MGM and The Jedi Mind Meld
Hi It's me again, Evil
Emperor Zurg, your narrator.
The cast includes Zurgswife, Kelley 10, a pair of Buzzes 8 and 7 (but the
younger buzz wants to be Quail Kid), and Her Royal Majesty Delaney - Snow White
- Cinderella - Jessie - Maleficent (DSWCJM) 3.
We were on our way to the Fantasmic
Dinner deal at Holllywood & Vine. It had been a stressful day. Zurg's
camcorder had tried to bounce on Main Street. Down it went off the stroller but
it didn't bounce back. (Zurg now knows Best
Buy is 25 minutes from Boardwalk.) In the morning we had been touring the
parks with friends who were total WDW rookies and got cash sucked out of them at
every possible turn. Slowing down Zurg's marching
cadence is bad enough, unfortunately the cash flow was a reaction to
whining. Cumulatively it was wearing the shine off Zurg's sparkling personality.
BuzzII
was holding off the whining and consumerism and for this Zurg was grateful. He
really wanted to go to Doug Live and be Quail Kid. If dinner was fast we may be
able to squeeze it in. Zurg has noticed that the time dinner takes and the
food's quality of the are directly related. We had plenty of time for Doug.
Let me digress, During our Halloween
pilgrimage to WDW Zurg had been cast as one of the Beats in Doug Live. At
the time the Buzzes had wanted him on stage, so Zurg used the Jedi mind trick on
the CM.
Zurg waves his hand slightly and says quietly, "Next I would like
the man in the purple hat to come up here."
CM on stage, "Next I would like the man in the purple hat to come up
here." Sucker.
Well that and on the theory that they were looking for someone to make a fool
of, Zurg had donned his Zurg
hat and cape to let casting know making a public spectacle of him isn't too
hard. Evil Emperors get picked, what can I say, it is a perk of the job.
CM to Zurg on stage, "Nice hat. What is your name and where are you
from sir?"
Zurg. "Evil Emperor Zurg, Planet
Z - Sector 9.
CM, "Ahhhhh… OK."
It wasn't crowded this trip. "Please move three quarters of the way across
the theater…" Zurg doesn't hear that too often. Zurg started doing the
Jedi Mind Trick again, also he put the Zurg
hat on Buzz II and had him to jump around like a manic, (i.e. behave
normally for him.) It nearly backfires as Buzz
I is almost picked but Zurgswife is able to direct the CM with her eyes. (If
Zurg was using the Jedi Mind Trick, Zurgswife Eye Trick was more akin to the
death star.)
Buzz II becomes
Quail Kid, underpants on the outside, cape and dopey head gear. Zurg would
have been thrilled if it weren't for the saving the world part
CM to Buzz II, " What's your name and where are you from?"
BuzzII, "Connor, Bryn
Athyn PA."
CM, "Ahhhhh… OK."
The way Zurg see it if your going to be from somewhere no one ever heard of it
may as well be planet Z.
