Transcript[]
An eye and meat flash on the screen before showing Amanda lying on her sofa, with Wooly standing in front of the camera.
- Wooly: "Oh... okay... Um... Hi! I'm... I'm Wooly! [pause] Today we're going to... We're going to... Uh... I don't know what we're going to do. Amanda?... Amanda? What do you want to do?"
- Amanda: "I don't care. I don't feel right."
- Wooly: "Maybe doing something will make you feel better?"
- Amanda: "I already tried drawing some pictures but that didn't help. [to Riley] What do you do when you're feeling bad?"
A seven-letter prompt appears.
If the player types "Sob" or "Cry":
- Amanda: "I wish I could."
- Amanda: "I feel like there's nothing left in me."
If the player types "Scream" or "Yell":
Camera zooms into Amanda.
- Amanda: [screams]
Camera zooms back.
- Amanda: "Nope."
- Amanda: "That didn't help at all."
- Amanda: [sacrastically] "Great suggestion."
If the player types "Break":
- Amanda: "I'm broken."
- Amanda: "You think that counts?"
If the player types "Talk":
- Amanda: "There's nobody who will understand."
- Wooly: [offscreen] "I understand, Amanda."
- Amanda: "Yeah, you'd like to think that, wouldn't you?"
If the player types "Wooly" or "Woolie":
- Amanda: "[sigh] I don't even want to hear his name right now."
- Wooly: [offscreen] "Hey, I just want to help!."
After typing any other answer:
- Amanda: "Good for you."
- Wooly: [gasps] "Amanda... how about an adventure?"
- Amanda: "What makes you think I want to go on an adventure right now!? Are you even paying attention!? I feel... weird! LEAVE ME ALONE!"
- Wooly: "...Well, I'm going to go on an adventure in my mind. [to Riley] You can come along with me if you like. Telling a story is like going on an adventure. What's your favorite kind of story?"
An eight-letter prompt appears.
If the player types "Horror", "Scary", or "Thriller":
- Wooly: "T-t-those kinds of stories are too scary for me!"
The screen distorts as the mouth of a pig, meat, and a bright open doorway flash.
- Wooly: [echoing] "No!"
The sequence stops.
- Wooly: [breathing heavily] "Wow! I wish I hadn't asked..."
If the player types "Comedy", "Funny", or "Silly":
Wooly pulls out a clown nose and puts it on his nose.
- Wooly: "I like those kinds of stories, too!"
Woolys eyes swirl around like in a cartoon.
- Wooly: [HONK HONK]
If the player types "Sad" or "Tragedy":
- Wooly: "Oh, we don't like those kinds of stories around here at all!"
If the player types "Romance" or "Love":
Wooly giggles and blushes.
After typing any other answer:
- Wooly: "That sounds neat! I'll have to check out some stories like that."
- Wooly: "Okay, a story! Hm. Once upon a time... Hey, why don't you help me tell the story? See if you have anything there that will help you follow along. Once upon a time, there was a brave knight..."
Four books have appeared on a table behind Riley: The Lonely Knight, The Caring Princess, The Hungry Hungry Dragon, and The Annoying Little Wizard.
- Amanda: [sighs]
- Wooly: "It's okay! Take your time."
Later:
- Amanda: [sighs] "How long is this going to take?"
- Wooly: "Hey now! You can't rush perfection!"
After opening the knight book and returning to the TV:
- Wooly: "Is that the choice you wanna go with?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: "Good job! There's our brave knight."
- Amanda: [groans]
- Wooly: "Okay, let's keep going!
After opening something other than the knight book and returning to the TV:
- Wooly: "Is that the choice you wanna go with?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: Um... That doesn't match the story I'm telling, does it? Let's get this story back on track!
- Wooly: The knight went to see a wise wizard, who delivered a dangerous quest."
After opening the knight and wizard books:
- Wooly: "Do you want to stick with this choice?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: "Right! You're good at storytelling. Let's see what this quest is!"
After opening something other than the knight and wizard books:
- Wooly: "Do you want to stick with this choice?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: Are you even listening to my story? Okay, moving on.
Wooly's eyes briefly turn black.
- Amanda: [to The Entity] "Wait!"
Riley turns to see The Entity posed to strike behind them. It stops to listen to Amanda.
- Amanda: "They've helped me before. Give them a chance to try. Please?"
The Entity goes to the back of the Kids' Corner, hanging upside down.
- Wooly: "There was a dragon that guarded many riches in a dark, faraway cave."
After opening the dragon book:
- Wooly: "Do you want to keep your choice?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: "Oooh, scary! I like it."
- Amanda: "This story is BORING."
- Wooly: "I think it's a fun story."
After opening something other than the dragon book:
- Wooly: "Do you want to keep your choice?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: You're not telling the right story... Can we please TRY my story and then you can tell your own?
The Opossum appears behind the sofa and climbs on top of it.
- Wooly: "Okay, let's see. What happens next? Deep in the dragon's cave, it also held captive a beautiful princess. The dragon threatened the princess with its fiery breath. 'Oh, won't someone save me,' sobbed the princess."
After opening the princess and dragon books:
- Wooly: "Is this the choice you wanna go with?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: "That poor princess."
- Amanda: "Ugh, why doesn't the dragon just put her out of her misery?"
After opening something other than the princess and dragon books:
- Wooly: "Is this the choice you wanna go with?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: "Ummm....a little focus here, maybe?"
- Amanda: "Who cares. Just tell your dumb story."
The Opossum starts scratching one of Amanda's drawings.
- Wooly: "Amanda, I'm doing my best to cheer you up!"
The two notice the Opossum.
- Amanda: "What the... Those are my drawings, you weirdo!"
It starts scratching another.
- Amanda: [to Riley] "He's going to tear it! Stop him!"
It then starts licking the drawing before opening its mouth wide.
After clicking the Opossum, it falls over, and then off the couch.
- Amanda: "I thought today couldn't get any worse..."
If the player doesn't click the Opossum, he eats the drawing and chokes on it. And then spits it out onto the screen.
- Amanda: "I'm already having the worst day ever, and then that guy eats my drawing? I worked so hard on those! It's not fair!!!"
- Wooly: "Come on Amanda, It'll be okay!"
- Wooly: [shrugs] "Maybe finishing the story will cheer you up?"
Amanda goes to continue listening.
- Wooly: "Um... okay. Well, where were we? Oh, yeah! The knight rushed to the dragon's lair. There the knight found the dragon guarding the entrance to its cave. The knight drew a sword and bravely faced the dragon! The dragon roared but the knight did not back down! After a long battle, the knight delivered a fatal blow and slew the dragon!"
The Entity begins twitching.
After opening the knight and dragon books:
- Wooly: "Have you made your pick?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: "Wow! What a brave knight!"
- Amanda: [sarcastically] "Wow, what a creative story!"
- Wooly: "Let's get to the grand finale!"
After opening something other than the knight and dragon books:
- Wooly: "Have you made your pick?"
After choosing yes:
- Wooly: "I'm starting to think you're messing with me, and it's not nice! Please let me finish my story..."
- Wooly: "The princess emerged from the shadows of the cave! 'You saved me!' she cried. She embraced the knight and they traveled back to the princess's kingdom where they lived happily ever after..."
After opening the knight and princess books:
- Wooly: "Okay, is that your selection?"
After choosing yes:
- Amanda: "Could that story have been any more boring? Why did you even waste my time?"
After opening something other than the knight and princess books:
- Wooly: "Okay, is that your selection?"
After choosing yes:
- Amanda: "That makes NO sense."
If the player got everything correct:
- Wooly: "I just love a happy ending. [to Riley] Don't you?"
If the player got everything incorrect:
- Wooly: [grumbles] "I'm not sure I want to tell stories with you anymore!"
- Amanda: "That whole story was just a bunch of nonsense! Why did you even waste my time? I'm having a terrible day, and you made it EVEN WORSE!"
After opening the knight and princess books and returning to the TV:
- Wooly: "Is that the choice you wanna go with?"
After choosing yes, the voice of a male narrator surprises Wooly.
- Narrator: "Once upon a time, there were a knight and a princess who loved each other very much. But one day, the knight had to leave the princess behind."
- Wooly: "Um, where did that princess come from? Let's get this story back on track. The knight went to see a wise wizard, who delivered a dangerous quest."
After opening the princess and wizard books:
- Wooly: "Do you want to stick with this choice?"
After choosing yes:
- Narrator: "The princess went to visit a wise wizard. She asked to wizard to help her see her knight again."
- Wooly: "No, the wizard didn't talk to the princess. The wizard talked to the knight to give them a quest! Okay... moving on."
Wooly's eyes briefly turn black. Riley turns to see The Entity posed to strike behind them. It stops to listen to Amanda.
- Amanda: "Wait! They're trying! Please?"
The Entity goes to the back of the Kids' Corner, hanging upside down.
- Wooly: "The quest! There was a dragon that guarded many riches in a dark, faraway cave."
After opening the wizard and dragon books:
- Wooly: "Do you want to keep your choice?"
After choosing yes:
- Narrator: "The wizard, being a bit of a trickster, transformed the princess into a terrifying dragon."
- Wooly: "That's not—!"
- Amanda: "Ah."
- Wooly: [grumbles]
- Amanda: "I'm liking where this is going..."
- Wooly: [sighs] "Can we please try my story and then you can tell your own?"
The Opossum appears behind the sofa and climbs on top of it.
- Wooly: "Okay, let's see. What happens next? Deep in the dragon's cave, it also held captive a beautiful princess. The dragon threatened the princess with its fiery breath. 'Oh, won't someone save me,' sobbed the princess."
After opening the knight and dragon books:
- Wooly: "Is this the choice you wanna go with?"
After choosing yes:
- Narrator: "In her new dragon form, the princess searched for her knight in hopes of reuniting. When she found him, the knight did not recognize her. She tried to call out to the knight but only breathed fire. The knight slew the dragon, not knowing they were killing their true love."
- Amanda: "Oh boy, the knight is gonna regret that!" [laughs]
- Wooly: [to Riley] "Where are you even getting these ideas?"
The Opossum starts scratching one of Amanda's drawings. The two then notice it.
- Amanda: "What the... Those are my drawings, you weirdo!"
It starts scratching another.
- Amanda: [to Riley] "He's going to tear it! Stop him!"
It then starts licking the drawing before opening its mouth wide.
After clicking the Opossum, it falls over, and then off the couch.
- Amanda: "I thought today couldn't get any worse..."
- Wooly: [shrugs] "Maybe finishing the story will cheer you up."
Amanda goes to continue listening.
- Wooly: "Um... okay. Well, where were we? Oh, yeah! The knight rushed to the dragon's lair. There the knight found the dragon guarding the entrance to its cave. The knight drew a sword and bravely faced the dragon! The dragon roared but the knight did not back down! After a long battle, the knight delivered a fatal blow and slew the dragon!"
The Entity begins twitching.
After opening the knight and princess books:
- Wooly: "Have you made your pick?"
After choosing yes:
- Narrator: "Right before drawing its last breath, the dragon transformed back into the princess. Horrified by what they had done, the sobbing knight embraced the princess's lifeless form."
- Wooly: "Noooo! That's not—!"
- Amanda: "It's so tragic. I love it! Keep going!"
- Wooly: Hm, no, that's not how the story goes at all! There was a big battle! The brave knight prevailed! And-And then... The princess emerged from the shadows of the cave! 'You saved me!' she cried. She embraced the knight and they traveled back to the princess's kingdom where they lived happily ever after..."
After opening the knight book:
- Wooly: "Okay, is that your selection?"
After choosing yes:
- Narrator: "Lamenting that they had killed their one true love, the knight resolved to wander the world alone... forever."
- Wooly: "Well, I tried..."
- Amanda: "Wow, I actually feel a lot better after hearing that sad story."
The Entity roars and goes to attack Riley.
- Amanda: "No! [it stops] They helped me feel better."
The Entity slams its fists on the floor, roars, and then retreats. Wooly is now absent.
- Amanda: "You knew exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you."
