Falaanla: Greetings. I am Falaanla Marr. Yes, I'm male. Yes, I play female characters. I know that many of you have ideas about men who play female characters. But I also know there are many of you out there that enjoy playing female characters although you are male. It's to the latter that I send out this message.
The camera angle changes and zooms in closer as Falaanla turns his head to face the new angle and smiles.
Falaanla: Friends, there's nothing wrong with playing a female character. It does not mean you are homosexual. This doesn't mean being homosexual is wrong, it's just that people should not automatically make that assumption. There might be some out there that pretend to get free items and such, but there are those of us that just prefer to roleplay our characters as the opposite gender.
The screen shifts to a back-view shot of a young man playing a computer game, watching his character running from one place to another, also watching the character from behind. After a few moments, the screen switches back to Falaanla.
Falaanla: Added benefits are that it's definitely more pleasing to the eye to see a young strong woman shaking her booty on your screen than some strapping young male. Unless you're homosexual, which is perfectly okay. Stand strong in your desires to play female characters! Do not give in to oppressing male-male players! Call me today and join my organization. We have a newsletter!
The man flashes a winning smile as the number appears on the screen, followed by impossibly small text. After a few moments, the M P W A N G logo appears on the screen again, above his head.
Falaanla: Remember, Men Playing Women Are Not Gay. Good night and see you soon online!
The screen blanks out and returns with the spinning EC logo you know and love. Or hate. The music starts up again, this time hummed by someone unseen before switching to the the darkness of the anchors' desk. The silhouettes of Vorago and Terena can be seen shuffling papers and the like before the lights turn on and both of them face the camera.
Vorago: Good Morning, viewers! I hope you've all slept well because we've got some interesting news for you all today. One of our reporters has managed to make his way into the Gydfather's organization! I'm sure you'd all love to hear what he has to say.
Terena: Before that, we're gonna hear from Biff Demitri.
Vorago: Right-o! Take it away, Biff!
The screen shifts again to the familiar recliner with D sitting there in boxers and a stained wife-beater shirt.
D: Yo. Well, as you know, the Cubs lost the playoffs and the Yankees won. So basically, everyone wanted to see the Cubs and the Sox, but hey, GOD HATES YOU.
D scratches himself and looks offscreen.
D: Lashanna! Where's that beer? LASHANNA! WOMAN, WHERE ARE YOU?
D turns his head back to the screen and shrugs lazily.
D: Guess she went to the store to get more groceries or something. Anyway, that's sports. Now if you'll excuse me, I have Dead to Rights 2. Speaking of, why don't you guys let me review gam..
The screen switches back to the newsroom, cutting D off in mid-sentence. Vorago smiles nervously and is twiddling his thumbs.
Terena: Hey, look at the time.
Coughing Vorago: Oh, you're right! We'll have to get to our key story after a word from our sponsors. Don't leave your seat, we'll be right back!
The screen fades to black and spins up the EC logo, complete with some midi music.
