kingandy | For Your Delectation And Amusement

I have just presented this to the Bahadhu mailing list (in response to a query about the sequence of events), and I'm quite entertained by it. So I thought I'd repost it here. Is to enjoy.

EDITED TO ADD: For clarification - the question was "Why was the Hitoshi not allowed to commit seppuku?" Also, does not actually have anything to do with Reboot.

1. EXT - KITCHEN TENT

KANJIRO: Kneel so I can kill you!

HITOSHI: I demand that the Daimyo come here and execute me himself.

PLEASANT AUTUMN WIND: *rushes off*

HITOSHI: - Or allows me to commit seppuku.

KANJIRO: Very well. Please to wait in the shrine.

2. INT - ANAGUMA MEETING TENT

PLEASANT AUTUMN WIND enters.

PLEASANT AUTUMN WIND: Tanaka-dono! Hitoshi-san demand execution by your hand!

TANAKA: Does he, eh? Does he really? I'll show HIM execution so I will. Give me your pointies.

POINTY-BEARER: *gives*

TANAKA: *charges*

3. INT - ANAGUME SHRINE

HITOSHI: Nice in here, innit?

KANJIRO: Sho nuff. Want a pointy?

HITOSHI: Yeah, seppuku is easier with a pointy. Give me a pointy.

TANAKA: *enters* *gives pointy* *continues giving pointy*

HITOSHI: *dies*

KANJIRO: Oh, very funny.
