Panel Dialogue Location Props
1 Cornhusk (floating head, narrating): The Topekans called the consultant for technical support.
Farmer Wheatina Bloomers (on phone, young): Your universal source code is buggy!
 Topeka Prime
Complex (Cowputer Labs)
  • Phone
2 One Death (on phone): We didn't sell you that code. That code is freeware, and as such is unsupported. We just supplied the cow.

4 Farmer Wheatina Bloomers (voice only): The Mayan calendar ends in December 2012. Along with the entire universe.

5 One Death (on phone): You know how hard it is to get universal uptime for as long as we've had so far? It's like nailing Jell-o to a tree. It's difficult.

6 One Death (on phone): Hey. You've got two hundred years left. That's great! I say make the most of them. Me, I like to go base-jumping on the weekends. Chicks dig it, you know?
Farmer Wheatina Bloomers (voice only): I'm a chick.
One Death (on phone): Listen, I've got another call coming through.
