Night at the Apollo Theater

Sophietexas assisting Sylvee on stage during Act III.

The **Night at the Apollo Theater** was an event which took place on Day 66 mostly at the Apollo Theater in Bean York City, New Beanland.

## Prelude

On Day 66, Amethystt logged on to the server for the first time and became a member of the Bean Empire. She was also revealed to be the newest addition to the Coochie Gang, an all-female alliance on the server previously consisting of Sylvee, KaraCorvus, Sophietexas and AllanahVA.

Later that day Sylvee and Amethyst were joined by Sophie in Toon Town and began the construction of the Coochie Gang's secret hideout, a strip club located in the basement of Peppa Pig's house. After travelling the world in search of resources, the girls abandon their construction efforts for the day and reconvened in Bean York City for a tour of the city and were joined by Kara.

TimeDeo and Michaelmcchill arrived at the city shortly afterwards, as the former was invited for a tour of the city by Sylvee and the latter took it upon himself to barge in and demand a tour. The group then headed over to take some pictures at the base of the Statue of Liberty. Much to the girls' excitement, AllanahVA logged on to the server and they invited her to join them in Bean York City, signaling a reunion of the members of the Coochie Gang. She flew over and together the group took several photos, including a girls-only group photo, at the base of the Statue of Liberty.

Sylvee then continued to bring the group around to view the many landmarks located in Bean York City. She allocated to each of them a tenancy within her apartment complex, subdividing the existing available rooms such that each of them had their own space. Soon afterwards, the group went on a tour around town. During the tour, Allanah shot Deo by accident, and chose to give the latter her bow to shoot her back. Deo complied, leaving Allanah at 4 hearts, though Kara would follow up and kill her fellow Coochie Gang member accidentally. Allanah wasn't too bothered, as the incident had reminded her that she needed to ally with Kara.

The group placed her items into a chest, and a viewer proclaimed that it was a potential 'Coochie Gang Civil War'. Amethystt responded, claiming that nobody died which prompted Michael to correct her. The group continued their tour of the city, with Allanah flying over from CrescentMoonClan once more. They convened at the Apollo Theater as Sylvee decided to hold an impromptu musical/stand-up show there.

## Events

### **Sylvee's Opening Act: Act I**

As the players gathered and took their places in the front row seats, Sylvee positioned herself on the centre of the stage. After a few mishaps involving Michael's giant plane and Deo fishing Sylvee off the stage, Michael gladly threw her a rose and said he was "simping" at the performer.

Sylvee then asked if the audience wanted a performance. As they said yes in unison, Sylvee began hopping around crouching up and down repetitively looking away from them, akin to a dance. Michael rejected this loudly, demaning his rose back. Sylvee proceeded to do an impromptu act by saying "meow", a reference to the musical Cats. The audience was clearly not impressed by this judging from the "boos" that filled the theater.

Afterwards, Sylvee attempted to continue, but failed to find a proper script to perform. Allanah would depart to collect her items from the Statue of Liberty after Michael threw her his plane-coat, and Sylvee would return to the stage. She asked for suggestions, with Kara requesting that Sylvee perform a scene from The Notebook, saying that she had never watched the movie yet, much to Michael's surprise. After another suggestion from the audience, Sylvee began singing, though the audience quickly shut it down, with Deo and Amethystt asking for their money and time back respectively.

Sylvee would tell her first joke:

* *What's the best thing about Switzerland? I don't know, but the flag's a big plus.*

The audience had a mixed reaction, so at the suggestion of Michael she decided to look up for "family guy jokes list written out not in picture form please" on Google. While waiting for the results, Allanah suggested to find "Boomer jokes", Michael told her to search for "Family guy quotes", Kara commented that she could search for "Puns or something", while Deo asked if they could read fan fiction aloud, but Michael and Allanah strongly discouraged the last suggestion.

The following jokes were delivered by Sylvee, taken from the Family Guy show:

* *You better watch who you're calling a child, Lois. Because if I'm a child, then do you know what that makes you? A pedophile. And I'll be damned if I'm gonna stand here and be lectured by a pervert.*
* *Love is like a fart. If you have to force it, it's probably crap.*
* *I can't deal with anything until I've had my after-nap coffee.*
* *Hey, Lois, if I was gonna kill myself, do I slit my wrists this way or this way? Sideways for attention, long way for result.*
* *Here, Honey. What's this? Blueberries? That's better than sex.*
* *You know how you always wanted a real diamond engagement ring? Oh, my God. That's right. I bought a horse.*
* *Attention restaurant customers. Testicles. That is all.*
* *Woah woah woah woah woah woah woah ... Lois, this is not my Batman glass.*
* *I'm not addicted to smoking, I just need a couple every hour or so, so I don't go completely insane.*
* *Who the hell are you thinking you are? Sometimes in life, you have to say "What the Hell" and just go for it!*
* *Careful Brian. Sometimes things you love-* (Sylvee broke off this joke)

During the show, Allanah would leap down from the balcony and aim her crossbow at Deo, prompting Amethystt to say, "She's bout to pull a Lincoln" and Michael to frantically look around yelling "John Wilkes Booth?!" Following the second last joke Amethystt would ask Sylvee if she needed an intermission, and Allanah would hop on stage and interrupt the show by yelling "Brian lookout!" in reference to the assassination attempt she made earlier.

### **Intermission**

Michael clearly enjoyed these jokes, as he watched Family Guy and was able to identify their respective contexts. Amethyst hopped on stage asking if she could perform intermission as she was quite overwhelmed by Sylvee's quality of jokes. She then walked to the centre of the stage for her act: 'hitting her juul' while blowing on microphone. It was well received by the audience, receiving lots of applause. Allanah would retreat to the top floor.

### **Act II**

After the intermission, Sylvee continued to deliver one more joke from Family Guy:

* *I've had it.*
*It's Saturday night, I could be out having a life.*
*Meg, if you don't want to baby-sit anymore, that's fine.*
*But don't you stand there and lie to me.*

Later, Kara replaced Sylvee as she took over the stand-up show with a couple more of pun jokes. Due to this, Michael told Deo to "get the fishing rod ready".

* *Did you hear about two peanuts walking through town? One was assaulted. (Fishing rod employed)*
* *What did one blade of grass say to another about the lack of rain?
I guess we’ll just have to make dew. (Fishing rod employed)*
* *Why don't ants get sick? Because of their little ant-ibodies. (Fishing rod employed)*
* *What do you call a shoe made out of a banana?
A slipper. (Fishing rod employed)*
* *How do you stop a bull from charging?
Cancel its credit card. (Fishing rod heavily employed)*

As Kara delivered these jokes, one of the audience members played a cricket chirping sound effect. Kara and Allanah would respond by asking Deo to head on stage, though he refused. Michael defended Deo by noting that they didn't need to be funny in order to critique people.

* *I lost my job at the bank on the very first day.
A woman asked me to check her balance, so I pushed her over. (Fishing rod employed and Deo attacked her with punches)*

Sylvee briefly took over the stage at this time, with Kara replacing the torches in the theater with lanterns, as they were more aesthetically pleasing. Following this interlude:

* *Why did the teddy bear say no to dessert?
He was stuffed.*
* *Today, my son asked, "Can I have a book mark?" and I burst into tears.
11 years old and he still doesn't know my name is Brian. (Fishing rod employed)*

### **Act III**

Sylvee:

* *A man driving a car hits a woman. Whose fault is it?
The man. Why was he driving in the kitchen?*
* *When a man opens a car door for his wife, you can be sure of one thing: either the car is new, or the wife is.*
* *How many men does it take to open a beer?
None. It should be opened by the time she brings it.*
* *How do you fix a woman's watch?
You don't. There's a clock on the oven.*

These jokes caused Michael to roar with laughter, commenting that they were "relatable" and, "these jokes were terrible." Sylvee would then ask for a volunteer from the audience to assist her with her next send scene. She then asked Sophie to help her, sending Sophie a script in Discord at this time and setting up with a mini pool on stage. A short seat dispute later, the skit was performed.

Sylvee and Sophie:

* Officer: *Ma'am, swimming is prohibited in this lake*
Lady: *Why didn't you tell me when I was removing my clothes?*
Officer: *Well, that's not prohibited.*

This caused the group to burst into laughter, while Kara reassured her chat that Michael didn't hate her. Amethystt would also comment, "TOS I just got banned."

Sylvee:

* *How many men does it take to change a roll of toilet paper?
I don't know, it never happened.*
* *What do women and screendoors have in common?* (Sylvee adamantly refused to finish the joke)
* *How does a man show that he's planning for the future?
He buys two cases of beer.*

Sylvee commented that some of the jokes were too offensive. Kara reassured her that they were all friends, before Sylvee set up the next joke with Sophie, building a mini bar.

Sylvee & Sophie:

* *A guy came into a bar one day and said to the barman, "Give me six double vodkas."
The barman says, "Wow! You must have had one hell of a day."*
(Sylvee refused to continue the joke as it was deemed way too offensive.)

The group asked her to finish the joke, or at least read ahead on them before continuing her act. Sylvee would also deny Kara a chance to read it.

Sylvee:

* *What’s the difference between a snowman and a snowwoman?
Snow balls. (Fishing rod employed)*

Sylvee would cancel another double joke for a similar reason as earlier, leaving the stage with Sophie sitting in the lake.

### **Act IV**

Michael then asked Allanah to take her turn and tell some jokes on the stage. She complied and looked up for jokes from Reddit (r/jokes). She opened her act by saying:

These were the jokes that she told during her act:

* *I went to the doctors recently.*
*He said: “Don’t eat anything fatty”.*
*I said: “Like what, bacon and burgers?”*
*He said: “No fatty, don’t eat anything.”*

She then pulled a gun (crossbow) and pointed it towards the audience, much to their shock. and surprise. Deo would also head onstage and briefly punch her around. Someone would also give Michael a lead at the time, prompting him to comment it was like a whip and punch at Allanah.

Sylvee then interrupted Allanah's act with another joke:

* *Did you know the “r” in woman stands for “rights”?*

Kara chimed in as well with another one:

* *Hey guys, I'm not sure about masturbation. On one hand, it's pretty great.*

Allanah continued her bit with one more joke:

* *The wife says, "I'm pregnant."*
*The husband says, "Hi pregnant. I'm dad."*
*The wife says, "No, you're not."*

Kara and other members of the audience let out sad noises. Michael too, deemed it as a sad one. The rest of the audience agreed as well. Allanah would leave the stage due to this joke.

Kara continued to give more to the audience:

* *So, I ordered a chicken and an egg from Amazon.*
*I'll let you know which comes first.*
* *Hey guys, did you hear about the blind prostitute?*
*You gotta hand it to her.*
* *A man woke up from a serious surgery. He screamed, “Doctor! Doctor! I can’t feel my legs!”.*
*And the doctor replied, “I know. I amputated your arms.”*

Allanah commented that she knew the joke, causing the audience to laugh.

Allanah then concluded her session with one final act, which she admitted was offensive and quite dark.

* *A woman is walking home with her three daughters.*
*Rose asks her mother, "Mom, why did you name me Rose?"*
*To which her mother replies, "Well, sweetie, when we were coming home from the hospital, a rose fell on your head.*
*Lily, curious, now asks, "Mom, why did you name me after a flower too?"*
*"Well, sweetie, when we were coming home from the hospital, a lily fell on your head"*
*Cinderblock says to her mother...*

Fortunately, she laughed too hard to finish the joke, and Michael asked her to stop before she could finish the entire joke properly. Allanah then took her leave and dismissed herself from the stage. Kara then took over the stage and brought out a scaffold.

* *This is my stepladder.*
*I never knew my real ladder.*

This brought laughter to the audience, but it was cut short when Michael said in a deadpan voice, "Kill her" with Deo requesting that she walk herself over to them to be killed. Due to this, Amethyst looked towards Michael and Deo and said "Boys... you've shown nothing." The men had refused to perform any jokes throughout the show.

Once again, Kara and Sylvee took turns delivering jokes.

* *Why does Stephen Hawking do one-liners?*
Kara: *...because he can’t do stand up.*
*S*ophie & Sylvee: *Isn't/because he's dead?*.'
Kara*:* *Also he's dead.*

Deo and Michael tried again to kill her from their seats for this joke.

Sylvee:

* *A man who invented velcro has died.*.'
'Rip.'

*Kara:*

* *What’s the difference between a chick pea and a garbanzo bean?*
*I wouldn’t pay $50 to have a garbanzo bean on my face.*

    Later, FallyFire, who was in Michael's Twitch chat at the time, sent him a link to a tweet: Fally had posted a screenshot of the event.

### **Act V**

In this act, Sylvee did a rapid fire round of jokes with little to no pause between jokes.

* *A man walks into the bar and orders a glass of orange.*
*The bartender says, "Still?"*
*"While I haven't changed my mind!"*
* *Why are men like commercials?
You can't believe a word they say.*
* *How does a man like the weather?
Nothing could be done to change either one of them.*
* *How does a man makes sex more interesting?
He leaves town.*
* *Why is a man like old age?
They both come too soon.*
* *Why don't men make ice cubes?
They don't know the recipe.*
* *Why are men like toilets?* (Sylvee broke off this joke)
* *Him: I can only cook two things-* What? (Sylvee broke off this joke)

The audience was bewildered and confused about the way these jokes were told, as Sylvee kept going on without providing adequate space for them to react or laugh. Michael noted that it was like the "ramblings of a madman," while Kara said that it was "rapid fire rambling."

Kara then proceeded to take over the act and deliver some more jokes.

* *Why cant you hear a pterodactyl go to the bathroom?*
Expected answer: *Because their P is silent.*
Real answer: *Because they are extinct. Because they're extinct and dead!*

Sylvee:

* *Why do ten percent of men make it to heaven?
Because if they all went it would be hell.*

Kara:

* *What's the difference between a dirty bus stop and a lobster with breast implants?*
*One is a crusty bus station, and the other is a busty crustacean.*

Sylvee:

* *Men are like bananas* (Sylvee broke off this joke)

Sophie also made a few attempts of telling jokes.

* *Why did the tomato blush?*
*Because it saw the salad dressing!*
* *What do you call cheese that is not yours?*
*Nacho cheese.*
* *Why do hamburgers go to the gym?*
*To get better buns.*

Sylvee (after the group had left the theater):

* *A man goes to the doctor concerned about his wife's hearing. The doctor says, stand behind her-* (Sylvee broke off this joke as it was long)

## Aftermath

    Unsettled with these terrible jokes and puns, Amethyst asked if they could go fishing instead. The group then left the theater and went fishing by the ocean next to the Statue of Liberty. Before leaving the city, Michael saw the marquee sign of the theater that said "*ANNOYING ORANGE FEAT. CAPT SPARKLEZ*" which is a reference to a collab video that CaptainSparklez made years ago. Michael was unaware of this video's existence and decided that to spam Jordan's chat with "Hey apple".

Meanwhile, Jordan was streaming another game with X33n when his chat was filled with "Hey apple" messages. Seeing this as an attack and provocation, Jordan's Twitch moderators reacted by switching the chat mode to subscribers-only mode and timing out everyone for 10 minutes who messaged the phrase. Jordan blamed Kara for this and Michael himself was also timed out. Allanah would then go add redstone lamps controlled by a lever in the theater.

    After a while, Michael asked everyone to stop the spam. He later urged his companions to go to Jordan's base at Creeper Amman in the Kingdom of Jordan and placed numerous amounts of map arts featuring the Annoying Orange video's thumbnail. Kara was reluctant to follow suit, prompting Michael to try and put all the blame of the pranks on her instead if she refused to participate.

At the Captain's base, Michael rode one of the llamas there tamed by Kara. He and Deo then proceeded to hang the llama by the flagpole of the Kingdom of Jordan. The duo then took turns riding the llama, to which Michael accidentally killed it. Kara attacked Deo to avenge the llama's death. To sue for peace, he gave her the cyan carpet once belonged to the animal. She continued attacking him nonetheless, but accidentally shot at one of the iron golems. Seeing that the golem had remained neutral after Kara successfully sneaked out of the chase, Michael enticed Deo to attack one of the golems. Despite claiming he did not have "the gear to kill [it]", Deo provoked the golem and received 6 and half hearts of damage from a single hit. Michael assisted on killing the aggressive golem.

Michael, Deo and Amethyst then vandalized his base with the map art of the Annoying Orange thumbnail all over Jordan's base. While attempting to avoid participating in the prank, Kara ran away from Michael and hid in the Emerald Hoe Strip Club, but Michael found her anyway and forced her to tag along. Afterward, Michael received a $150 donation from one of his viewers to build a bigger, "thiccer" version of the dismantled Jardong of Ender. He promised to execute the prank soon.
