Sky News on 35 PRPN!

Tifa: And, we're back on Madmen* after some technical difficulties**. Tifa Lockhart here with Madman. Grendel is out on assignment.

 

Madman: War in the store?? That's right, folks are fighting over those essentials that are hard to get.

 

Tifa: But first, Paprihaven is not the only community suffering. While we are facing a war, Coopers Town is dealing with a pandemic that has strained their resources. We have with us, live from Coopers Town, Judy Goldfarb with Sky News.*** Judy, thank you for joining us. What is Coopers Town's biggest challenge during this pandemic?

 

Judy: Thank you Tifa. We have a bit of a store war over here as well. An elderly lady started to beat a fellow shopper with a leek. Apparently had this poor lad stepped too close to her turf and she felt the need to fend him off. So I'd say social distancing has become a real problem.

 

Madman: Leaks!? Like news leaks? What?

 

Tifa: Leeks! It's a vegetable. So, Judy-

 

Madman: How do you beat a person with a leaky vegetable? So, anyway, Judy-

 

Tifa: -... *sigh*

 

Madman: - given that you are in Coopers Town which is famous for its equestrian heritage and this segment features a hospital, do you think there's any validity to some people preferring to say "horse spittle" instead of "hospital"?

 

Tifa: No one says that! Only you!

 

Madman: I'm people!! Judy, if you wouldn't mind answering my question...

 

Judy: *strained laughter* … Very amusing I'm sure Mr Madman.

 

Madman: So, do you?

 

Judy: Oh, you were serious. Well no. I can't say we do. Unless you're in kindergarten and just learnt how to play with words.

 

Tifa: Ooohh, BURN! Okay, let's-

 

Madman: Now, jestaminnit!!! I-

 

Tifa: My turn, Madman! I think we've exhausted the "horse spittle" angle of this news topic, as compelling as it was. Now, Judy, you mentioned social distancing. Is that a voluntary community effort in Coopers Town or is it mandated? And I'm curious as to what the Coopers Town political structure is. I was looking at photos and see you have a royal palace. Is Coopers Town under a monarchy?

 

Madman: Cause our leadership is a mess right now!

 

Judy: There, there Mr Madman. Well Tifa, it's both. Since the Sindys in our town demanded social distancing from the Barbies long before the pandemic broke out, they lived by that rule anyway. While the Barbies needed some involuntary guidance from the government. The royal palace? Oh, the palace yes. It's regally royal alright, but doesn't really rule.

 

Tifa: It sounds like there may be discriminatory practices against Barbie in Coopers Town. We'd love to dig a bit deeper there but we're up against the break so we'll sadly have to stop.

 

Madman: Been a hoot, Suite Judy Black Specs, let's do it again! Don't be a stranger though you couldn't be stranger than me! 🎵🎤Strangers in the night exchanging glances, wondering in the night 🎶

 

Judy (thinking) Gasp!!! What did the young madperson call me?! Quick, I have to come up with a comeback fast so I seem jolly and prepared...

 

Tifa: Aaaand, that's our cue!

 

Madman: 🎵🎤What were the chances we'd be sharing love 🎶

 

Tifa: Thank you all at home for watching Madmen on PRPN and-

 

Madman: 🎵🎤Before the night was throoooouuuuugh!! 🎶

 

Tifa: -thank you Judy Goldfarb from Sky News in Coopers Town for joining us. We give you the last word.

 

Judy: My pleasure dear and Mr Mad-as can-be-Man. It's been most interesting. I'd like to give one last shoutout for PRPN appearing on Sky News next week when we learn more about the war. Don't miss that!

 

Madman: 🎵🎤Strangers without malice, seeking romances, with Judy in the palace, long slow dances, next weeeeeeeek!! 🎶
