[When the broadcast starts, it goes from silence to the immediate noise of two people screaming, punctuated by the sound of laser gunshots and mechanical whirring. It seems the device is on a side-table, giving a flat view of Ford and Alphys… perched on another table. Alphys is curled up, hands over her head, looking incredibly distressed, while Ford seems to be shooting at something off-camera.]

Oh m-my god, oh my god, we’re going to d-die here, I’m so s-sorry, I didn’t know they were all going to start...

Don’t worry! I happen to have excellent aim.

[All of a sudden, something takes a flying leap up onto the table, and Alphys yells as Ford shoots it down. The ensuing shot causes the device to fall over, revealing the floor is absolutely covered in knife wielding box tentacles, some with multiple arms, some with multiple knives, all running over each other and stabbing the floor, themselves, and the table. Alphys is still yelling. Ford is still shooting. It looks like an absolute catastrophe.]

Maybe we shouldn’t have prototyped them with the basic ability to learn--

Well it w-would have been fine if it was just, y-you know, one of them! They weren’t all supposed to turn on at the same time!

[Suddenly, Alphys turns her head and seems to notice the device, turning herself around and reaching out to grab it, bringing it in close to her and Ford.]

Uh, t-this is totally under control! No need to panic! I d-don’t, uhm, know how long this has been broadcasting, but, it’s f-fine! … And m-maybe don’t come to Ford’s room for, uhm, a little bit, for uh. Reasons.

Is that thing on? Uh, I mean-- Yes! Everything is absolutely, 100% under control. There is no need to worry about anythi-- [Ford cuts himself off and hisses.] Watch out, Alphys! I think it just tasted my blood!!

Oh g-god please don’t let that do anything new.

[And the device blinks off, cutting out the mechanical whirring sounds with it.]

Hah! Y-Yeah, that would be so funny! Then they'd look like a bird monster.

[Okay she's slowly being suckered into this.]

We, uhm, h-had a prank competition a few months ago... it would be fun to, uhm, d-do over again, now.

[In all honesty, so is he. There were only snippets of humor in Zacharie's game after all. It would be interesting to see more.]

I personally have never been in a prank competition before! If you were to re-hold one, are others allowed to join?

[Someone did say he should try things outside of his role anyways.]

Of course! The last one, uhm, j-just kind of evolved on accident, so people just got drawn in l-left and right. We only really stopped because of, uhm, a d-dangerous event.

[Let's all remember dinercon 2k16 fondly as zombies paraded around outside.]

But I think it would be f-fun to do again!

Ah, dangerous events. Always a killer of fun and happy moods used to relieve the player from the previous unfortunate event.

[As the action brackets prove, fun filled pranks then ZOMBIES. Figures, right?]

If you decide to hold this event I would be happy to join. Either a party or solo, I am not picky. Ah ah ah.

H-Hah, well, this place does sort of, uh, m-making you have mood whiplash after a while.

[Player what she's gonna casually ignore THAT ONE]

I'll, uhm, l-let you know! Maybe, uh, if there's not an event soon, to uh, t-throw a wrench in everyone's plans.

[...well let's just be happy Zacharie can't break the fourth wall that badly.]

Excellent! I will await your call with anticipation amigo. And I do hope your tentacle problem is solved as well.

[By the gunshots, he's assuming it's still a thing.]

That'll p-probably be solved soon. But I'll let you know!
