SYNOPSIS: Running introduces Elliot, the co-star sock puppet of the RTG puppet show. Elliot uses this video introduction as an opportunity to tell his best friend Unity Galaxia that he's in love with her.
###
Elliot: Thank you for letting me on the show and introduce myself, Running.
Running: You're welcome, handsome.
Elliot: Unity would never let me do this. *sighs dreamily* I love a woman that takes charge.
Running: Then tell her how you feel.
Elliot: Who, me? Mm-mm. I could never. I'm too shy.
Running: Oh. Then tell her how you feel later whenever you're ready.
Elliot: Oh, mm-hmm, yeah, mm-hmm. I'll do that. *he and Running stare at the camera* Is the camera on?
Running: The camera is on.
Elliot: Oh goody!
Running: Introduce yourself to the human race.
Elliot: Hmm. Hello, everyone! My name is Elliot. I am so... *breathes nervously* so... so happy to be here... *faints and falls off camera*
Running: *looks down worriedly* Elliot?
CUT SCENE
Elliot: *back on camera, glances back and forth at the space around him* What happened?
Running: You fainted.
Elliot: Oh. Is the camera still on?
Running: Yeah. Are you going to tell Unity how you feel now?
Elliot: I think I will. *goes up to the camera* You know what? I can't do this. I think I'm just going to stand here and just wait for the time to go out. *scoots back* Right here. *pauses* So the human race, huh?
Running: Yes.
Elliot: You're an entity and everyone else is a human.
Running: I'm in a human host.
Elliot: Isn't everyone else?
Running: Yes.
Elliot: Okay.
Running: Unity abuses me.
Elliot: *gasps* Wow. She says a lot of things about you.
Running: I know. She's so mean.
Elliot: Nah. I think what she's trying to say in her giant mean voice is that you wear plain clothes, you don't know how to do your make up, your hair is a mess, you have no emotion when you talk.
Running: Oh.
Elliot: But I don't think she means it in a bad way. No, ma'am.
Running: *gets ready to cry as she looks down*
Elliot: Don't be sad. *comforts* It's okay.
Running: *smiles* You're really nice.
Elliot: I know. That's why I love the camera. I don't care when this ends.
Running: *giggles*
Elliot: That's what I like to hear, girl. *after a pause, looks at Running and she looks back*
Running: What is it?
Elliot: I think it's time to end the show.
Running: Okay.
Elliot: I think I'm ready to tell Unity how I feel in front of aaaaaaalllllllllllllllllllll these people.
Running: Okay, let's hear it.
Elliot: *goes up to the camera* Unity, I lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-lo... *faints and falls off camera and Running stares down at him*
