*** INT. ENGLISH-CLASS-TOWER - NIGHT (Mr. O'Neill is alone with a creature, which is the horror of every decent Dariafan. He starts a dialog with him.)

O'NEILL: Do you know how Mary Sues first came into being? Once they were new introduced characters. Original, interesting assets to the main cast, but they were taken by the egos of their creators. Dark powers, tortured and mutilated. A ruined and terrible form of life. But now... perfected by the Master of the Lawndale Universe himself: The Almighty Glenn Eichler. My fighting Mary Sue. What is your name?

CREATURE: Tom Sloane.

O'NEILL: Whom do you serve?

TOM: O'Neill the White.

O'NEILL: Now Tom, there are Fashion Clubbers who have something, which is of great value to our cause. Bring them to me alive and unspoiled.

EXT. ENGLISH-CLASS-TOWER - NIGHT (O'Neill is standing now in front of a huge army of about 200 Mary Sues. It consists the most awful Daria-Mary Sues who were ever created in the world of Daria fanfiction. Their leader Tom Sloane, in full battle gear, is standing in front of them, while O'Neill holds speech.)

O'NEILL: Hunt them down! Do not stop until they are found! You do not know pain. You do not know fear. You are Mary Sues! You will always have the last line.

TOM AND THE MARY SUES: (battle cry) Yeah! ***

Any comments who these Mary Sues might be?

That was hilariously funny, and I speak as a fan of both the original trilogy and of the movie version. Fix some of the typos, though.

Sincerely Yours, Jordan
