GAME INTRO



A tunnel leading to the streets of Spudland where the 5 members
of the Smart Patrol are in their Spudmobiles.Preceded by the
flying Turkey Monkey they head toward screen, peeling off frame
left and right as titles appear introducing them as Jeremy, Jamie,
Max, Tanya and Grady respectively in "Adventures of the Smart
Patrol". After Grady has slammed on his brakes in order to avoid
Turkey Monkey's attack, Turkey Monkey slimes the screen. The
green ooze pixillates into an animated DNA chain that serves as
transitional wipe between scenes.

INT. ROD ROOTER'S OFFICE HOUR 1



The user clicks into Rod Rooter's inner sanctum. He's on the
phone with his broker seated at his desk, turned away from the
user, staring at his compu-monitor when DEVO,s "Beautiful
World" video interrupts his Universal Walker stock report.



ROD ROOTER

Look, Manny, I love ya but you gotta stop yankin my yob! You
said that new servo-motor on the UW 1000 meant BIG
TUBARS for....What?!! (Rod sees "Beautiful World" appear on
his Monitor)...Manny, Manny Gotta go!(Rod starts stabbing at

Rod shoves a video cassette into the user's "hand". It
automatically becomes inventory.



ROD ROOTER

Take that to your people. They need it for evidence.



Afterwards, Rod sits in his chair and presses a button on the arm
and disappears into the floor, chair and all.



If the user fails to "play" the VHS by inserting it in a player
located in SP HDQTRS, LFU, or GEN BOY's HOUSE before
hour 5 or is tricked into giving it away, then he/she will miss the

PILGRIM 1

Hey, friend! Thats my hat!



If the user is given the tape, it becomes inventory. In that case just
after the scene change, Boogie Boy calls the user on his/her
Spudfinder in his/her Spudmobile. If the user answers, Boogie
says...



BOOGIE BOY

Greetings, spud. A piece of advice because I'm feeling nice.
Check that tape before it's too late.



The tape contains DEVO's "Jocko Homo" video and the last
Devolutionary rule. Depending on the locations the user visits
he/she will have few or many opportunities to find a player to play
back the tape and collect the rule. They will also, depending on
how they navigate, be asked by other characters to give the tape
up without see it first. This makes it impossible to get access to
the "My Struggle" gallery and therefore impossible to complete
the story/game.

If the user doesn't get the clue and contacts BB again, he comes
back on the SF.



BOOGIE BOY

for the Smart Patrol and Boogie Boy adorn the grey concrete
walls. The club is closed and the door is locked but a monitor
built into the wall behind thick glass displays the evening's

tickets with his/her digi-cash card or pay more at the door. Of

MRS. ROTHWELL (V.O.),

Dollar Hills.The user can navigate around the circumference and

An overwhelmingly tastless ode to opulence, Rod's home looks a
lot like Aaron Spelling's sprawling 26 room pseudo- midieval
mansion in L.A. A high security wrought iron fence surrounds the
property. If the user touches any part of the fence, a threatening
male electronic voice instructs.



ELECTRONIC VOICE

Move away from the property. Now!!



There seems to be no way in. But the user may discover the huge
old Oak tree that grows outside the property, branches of which
bend above the fence and come close to Donut Rooter's
bedroom window. The user can click and "climb" the tree, then
click and peek thruogh the window at Donut who is sleeping.

GENERAL BOY (V.O.)

Salutations. March right in young spud!



If the user clicks on the door again it opens into a wide hallway.
At the end of the hallway is a glass elevator leading down to
General boy's office, decorated like a real military top brass
abode. General boy can be seen with his back to the user
practicing salutes in the elevator before it goes down. On both
sides of the hallway are 4 more framed pages from BB's "My
Struggle" totalling 8 altogether. As with the others at SP
HDQTRS and LFU, they each come from a different chapter of
the book. .There's a red door halfway down the hallway. Boogie
Boy can be heard behind it laughing like an infant.If the user
clicks on BB's door it's locked. General Boy's V.O. responds
over an intercom

mountains but as yet unborn.

EXT. GOLDEN OASIS RETIREMENT HOME. HOUR 1



Looking like a run down 30's brick industrial-age tire plant but
larger, Golden Oasis is a sad end of the line for the has-been old
entertainers to which it caters. However, the bustling new OM
wing sees quite a turnover as the user is sure to find out during the
course of game play. But for now, when the user exits his/her
Spudmobile and enters the lobby, he/she encounters the
prune-faced female receptionist. Behind her is a long narrow,
institutional hallway that intersects another corridor at the end like
a "T". As the receptionist speaks, A patient ( a member of Devo)
wheels by left to right at the end of the hallway and is visible for
only a second.

if the user trys to get past the receptionist, then she says.



G.O. RECEPTIONIST

Good day. Please input the name of the patient or patients that
you wish to see on our check-in terminal to the right.



If the user clicks right ,they get a full-frame view of the terminal.
They must then use their keyboard to type in one of the following
names to get past the receptionist: Mark Mothersbaugh, Robert
Mothersbaugh, Gerald V. Casale, Robert Casale, or Alan
Myers. If the user is successful, then the receptionist responds.



G.O. RECEPTIONIST

I'm sorry, it's DEVO's therapy hour. You'll have to come back
later. Good Day.



If the user is unable to input one of the above names, then the
receptionist says:



G.O. RECEPTIONIST

I'm sorry, you have no business here. Perhaps you'd like to wait
and visit our GIFT SHOP. It re-opens in one hour.



If the user clicks left to leave, he/she will see the GIFT SHOP
where MAX works on the way out. It is indeed closed for lunch,
but the user can see plenty of Hallmark-style graphics
sentimentalizing the joys of assisted living. After about 30 seconds
of perusal, or, after re-clicking on the receptionist or check-in
terminal, Mrs. Rothwell's V.O. scene change announcement
occurs.
