Final Fantasy 8 Jeopardy!


By Jae-sama

Alex Trebek: Welcome to Jeopardy! I am Alex Trebek and-

Zell: Heee-ey! You're that dude on the Hooked on Phonics commercial!

Alex: Ah. Yes. Why yes I am. Like I was sayin-

Zell: That piece of junk game didn't work!

Alex: (trying to stay calm) Well Mr. Dincht I didn't make the game so-

Zell: Yeah but it didn't work! You lied! (Beats his fist on the podium)

Alex: (eyebrow twitches) Zell please refrain from hitting the podium! Ahem. (Smiles and turns to the camera. Music starts up again.) I am Alex Trebek. This show is about as exciting as watching cheese mold

(Camera moves to Irvine)

Alex: This is 446-43… huh? (Looks at his papers) Mr. Kinneas, what in the world are all those numbers where your name is supposed to be?

Irvine: It's for all the ladies… my number. Write it down for future reference. (Winks)

Seifer: Cool! You can change the names on the podiums? (Leans over and writes 'chicken-wuss' on Zell's when he isn't looking)

Zell: Hey! (Punches at Seifer and changes it back)

Alex: This is Zell, a cadet in the military group Seed-

Zell: SeeD!

Alex: Boy I am getting tired of your jibba-jabba!

Seifer: Heh heh, chicken-wuss…

Zell: WHAT DID YOU SAY!!!? (Flips Seifer off)

Irvine: Did you just say… jibba-jabba? (Looks at Alex)

(Silence. Someone in the audience coughs)

Alex: A-anyway…

(Camera moves to Seifer)

Alex: This is mister… good God…

(Seifer leans over to see what was written on his podium)

Seifer: Who put my name as FUTT BUCKER!!!?

(Zell laughs and whistles innocently)

(Seifer tackles Zell, and when they're on the ground, Irvine writes 'Loozers' on their podiums.)

Zell: A-A-A-Alex! Seifer stabbed me with the little pointer-mabob that's used to write names! (Whines)

Alex: AUGH! You guys be serious now!

(Everyone stands up and goes to their podium.)

Alex: (sighs) Okay. In the lead with 0 gil, is er- Futt Buc-

Seifer: !!!

Alex: Ah, Seifer. He has been smart and decided to not answer a single question…then we have Zell, with -3,490 gil… and lastly, Irvine with… -186,903,465.23 gil. (Shakes head) All right, these are the Categories.

(Everyone turns to the big TV)

Alex: Rhymes With "Schmalbadia", The Girl Next Door, How Many Licks to the Center of a Marble and… Chest + Nut = ____? Seifer, with you in the lead, you get to start.

Seifer: (concentrates) I'll…take……The Girl Next Door!

Irvine: NOOOOO! I wanted that one! Lemme do it Futt Bucker!

Seifer: What did you call me? (Reaches for his Hyperion)

Alex: THE QUESTION IS…

(Everyone gets quiet again)

Alex: …what is The Girl Next Door?

Seifer: Wait. I thought this was about… the girl who lives next door to me.

Alex: (slaps forehead)

Irvine: (beating his buzzer repeatedly)

Alex: Mr. Kinneas… would you like to take this one…?

Irvine: The Girl Next Door is a dirty magazine!!!

*Bzzzzzzzzzt*

Alex: (winces) ooh, I'm so sorry. It was supposed to be in the form of a question.

Irvine: BUT-!!!

*Bzzzzzzzzzt*

Alex: Your turn Zell!

Zell: Erm… I'll take Rhymes With "Schmalbadia" please

Alex: (clears throat) What… rhymes with the word…… "Schmalbadia"?

Zell: (leans his elbow on the podium) Let's see…Falbadia?

*Bzzzzzzzzzt*

Alex: So sorry, the answer was Galbadia.

Seifer; I can't believe you didn't get that, chicken-wuss! It's so easy!

Zell: Well lemme see YOU do one smarty-pants!

Seifer: FINE! How Many Licks to the Center of a Marble, Alex! (Beats his fist on the podium)

Alex: 1,563,448,011,178,904,345,866.3498766666

Seifer: What is how many licks to the center of a marble?

*Ding ding ding*

Alex: That is correct!

Zell: (jaw drops) Whaaaaaaaaaa?

Irvine: This game is messed up!

Zell: I know! I'm gonna go on strike!

Alex: Zell…… you don't work here.

Zell: Okay then, can I get job here as janitor?

(Alex looks off-stage and whispers to his manager)

Alex: Yes.

Zell: I'm going on strike! I refuse to clean up after you!

Seifer: Heh.

Irvine: Why does he get a job? I want one!

Alex: Everyone shut up!

(Everyone shuts up.)

Irvine: My turn my turn!

Alex: Yes… (Clenched teeth) So…

Irvine: I'll take Chest + nut = _____ Mr. Trebek! I'm feelin' lucky tonight!

Alex: (sighs and leans on the podium) You know the question, answer it.

Irvine: Che-

*Bzzzzzzzzzt*

Irvine: HEY!

(Alex drowns out Irvine's ranting and raving with the buzzer)

Alex: Let's go to the Final Jeopardy. The category is, spell the word 'cat.' That's easy enough for you morons, right?

(They all shake their heads)

Alex: You know, cat!

Seifer: ?

Alex: It's small, furry… (Sighs) It goes "meow"…

Irvine: (raises eyebrow) …?

Alex: C-A-T!!!

Zell: Ohh… (Nods)

(Jeopardy music plays)

Alex: Alright Seifer, let's see it.

KAT

Alex: And… what did you wager? (Sighs)

All of the chicken-wuss' gil

Alex: Well. Seeing that Zell has a negative amount of gil… I guess… nothing happens. (Puts a hand on his forehead) Zell… let's see yours.

SEIFER BUCKS FUTTS

(Alex presses his buzzer annoyedly to blank out all of Seifer's loud cussing)

Alex: What did you wager…?

1,987,434 GIL

(A loud flushing sound is heard as Zell's money drops even lower)

Irvine: My turn my turn!

Alex: Let's see it… not like it matters, seeing you're currently losing.

CAT

(Everyone gasps, and a few audience members faint. Alex spits out some coffee he got…somewhere… Seifer cusses in amazement.)

Alex: There is a God!!! What did you wager?

A 10-FOOT LONG BURRITO

(Loud slaps are heard as everyone hits their forehead.)

Alex: (groans) I wanna go home.

(People walk towards the door, and Zell and Seifer walk off stage with Alex. Irvine stays at his podium.)

Irvine: Where the heck is my burrito!? I got the answer right, didn't I?

(All the doors shut, and Irvine is left in the darkness)

Irvine: Hello…?

(The Jeopardy music plays, ends, and a janitor walks past and wipes over Irvine's feet with a mop.)

Rinoa: Irvine! Irvine!

(Irvine opens his eyes, only to see Rinoa, Selphie, Zell, Quistis and Squall standing over him in their pajamas, frowning.)

Selphie: You kept yelling something about Alex Trebek!

Zell: That's sick, even for you, man! I thought you liked women!

Irvine: I do I do!

Quistis: Prove it.

(Irvine smiles wickedly, and looks at the girls)

Rinoa, Selphie & Quistis: Nevermind!

(Everyone walks to the door and leaves.)

Zell (After the door closes): Man… Alex Trebek? You think he'd go for someone like… Squall.

Squall: HEY!

Zell: Sorry man, but it's true. He has seen you in your Pikachu underwear, after all.

Squall: Shut up! I got rid of those!

Everyone: Suuuuuure ya did.

(Irvine rolls over in bed and finds someone sleeping next to him.)

(Only to his horror…it was…)

(…!!!!!…)

Alex: Why, hello Irvine.

...To Be Continued!
