Bill's
Sick Of Windows Too
Hollywood
FOX spokesman announced today, that an
arrangement had been reached with Microsoft's billionaire Bill Gates, to pen a
portion of an upcoming episode script for their hot comedy Ally Mcbeal. Gates, one of the
founders of the computer software
giant, recently admitted to having become, quote, Bored with the whole Windows
thing, leading some industry experts to suspect it to be the reason why the
famous operating system never worked very well. It was for this reason, FOX initially was
reluctant to approve Gates request, in addition the fact that David E.
Kelley, creator and producer of the show, normally writes all the scripts,
feeling no one else would be able to attain his level of excellence. However,
Gates apparently offered the studio a sum of 345,000 dollars, which the studio
could not afford to decline, since the recent charges leveled against it.
According to John Farrow, representative for FOX, We have agreed to allow Mr.
Gates to write one segment of an upcoming script, involving a session between
Tracy and Ally in her office. (Tracy Ulman and Calista Flockhart portray
the two characters) we dont believe what he creates could be more ridiculous
than that FOX would not elaborate on the details of the scene, although The Daily
Cynic was able to exploit the poor encryption capabilities of Internet Explorer
and download the draft from Gates personal computer. What follows is due to be
seen in an episode to air in March:
Ally: I just dont know what Im going to do about Billy
Tracy: I see
would you say youre angry with him, sorry for him, or do you
even know?
Ally: Well, none of the first two, so I suppose I would
have to say I dont know
Tracy: Uh huh
and if he were in the room now, would you
tell him off, kiss him, or neither one?
Ally: Neither one I guess
Tracy: OK, try to imagine yourselves on a beach in the
Caribbean, and youre both enjoying each others company just relaxing. Did
that make things clearer in your mind?
Ally: No, Im still confused
Tracy: Well Ally, it seems as though you have a problem Im
just not going to be able to help you with. Maybe you could try reading a book
on relationships, and see if that gives you any ideas
Ally: Thats it? I paid money for you to tell me that?
Tracy: I dont understand what youre saying
think about
what you mean, and try to tell me again
Ally: Oh, just forget it
While the editor feels the scene was better in the than
previous involving the therapist, The Daily Cynic cannot help but to expect FOX
will refuse any other such offers from Gates in the future.
