Scene 1:
Gandalf is in his study, trying to cast a spell, but it’s not working. He’s getting frustrated and decides to call tech support.
Gandalf: (on the phone) “Yes, hello. I’m having trouble with a spell, it’s not working as it should.”
Patrick: (a cranky, burned-out wizard on the other end of the phone) “Okay, sir, can you please tell me the name of the spell and the incantation you’re using?”
Scene 2:
Gandalf and Patrick are on the phone, with Patrick trying to troubleshoot the problem.
Gandalf: “The spell is called ‘Flame of Anor’ and the incantation is ‘Ignis exortus Anor’.”
Patrick: “Hmm, that should be working. Have you tried using a different wand? Sometimes the wand can be the problem.”
Gandalf: “I’ve been using the same wand for centuries, it’s not the problem.”
Patrick: “Well, I’m not sure what to tell you, sir. Have you tried turning it off and on again?”
Gandalf: (sarcastically) “Yes, I’ve tried turning the spell off and on again. That’s not the problem.”
Scene 3:
Gandalf is still on the phone with Patrick, but they’re not making any progress.
Patrick: “I’m sorry, sir, but I’m not sure what else to try. I’ll have to transfer you to one of our senior tech support wizards.”
Gandalf: (frustrated) “Fine, transfer me.”
Scene 4:
Gandalf is now on the phone with Darth Vader, who’s working as a senior tech support wizard.
Darth Vader: (in his iconic, deep voice) “Lord Gandalf, I sense a disturbance in your spell. The problem is not with your wand, but with the ingredients you’re using. You’re using dragon’s fire, but the spell requires phoenix feathers.”
Gandalf: (surprised) “Phoenix feathers? I didn’t know that. Thank you, Darth Vader, you’ve been most helpful.”
Darth Vader: “It’s my job, Lord Gandalf. May the force be with you.”
Scene 5:
Gandalf is back in his study, with the correct ingredients. He casts the spell and it works perfectly.
Gandalf: (to himself) “I’ll have to remember to use phoenix feathers next time. And maybe not call tech support.”
End of Episode.
