CaffieneKittySpace - SPN Crack: Supernatural musical episode

I'm blaming this on the high fever, the medication, and Kripke being a giant spoiler-volcano in interviews.

At the vague suggestion of

spndpfrdcrck... "What are the chances of a Supernatural musical episode?"

[WARNING; May contain small referential spoilers for all episodes aired in North America (up to and including 3.12), and complete detailed plot and casting spoilers for an episode guaranteed to never ever ever exist. Also spoilers for.... something else, but really, it's been available to the world since the late 1800's. And I haven't actually seen it anyways, just a cracky 1980's adaptation of it.]

Right. Where was I then? Oh yes.

Plot summary of the never-to-be-aired episode:
"Pirates of the Backroads of Middle America"

One day the Trickster gets bored and decides to teach a town that's outlawed dancing in the streets what they're missing by forcing them to enact the Pirates of Penzance. Over and over and over... because as we've seen with the probing in "Tall Tales" and the everything in "Mystery Spot", the Trickster seems to looooove repetition.

The problem is the Trickster underestimated the mystic power of Gilbert and Sullivan and the effect spreads much farther than the Trickster ever intended, the original townsfolk having danced themselves to exhaustion. Hunters and demons and law enforcement officers have been getting drawn into this ever-increasing perfect storm of musical theatre which threatens to draw in the entire US at the very least. The effect has been overturning even the bounds of the grave, bringing people and entities back from the dead and beyond to participate.

Sam and Dean arrive and have to break the curse by doing... something, but they aren't sure what at first. While trying to figure it out, Sam gets drawn into the curse, and Dean then realizes he has to ensure that the play does not unfold as expected, no one gets married, and most especially, above all, Frederic does not end up with Mabel.

Featuring:

-Assorted Hunters and friendlies as the "Chorus of Pirates"
-Assorted Law Enforcement Personages as "Chorus of Police"
-Assorted Demons, Psychic Kids and general annoyances as "Chorus of General Stanley's Daughters"

-YED as Major General Stanley (who has retained enough awareness of what's going on to try and manipulate events in his own favour, given a second chance at existence)

-John and Bobby as the Pirate King. (Somehow.... It's crack, okay? Don't ask me.)

-Dean (just pretending, as he is protected from the effect of the musical curse by an iPod full of Mullet Rock) as Samuel, the Pirate King's Lieutenant (Which means, yes, everyone keeps calling Dean 'Sam', (like this wasn't confusing enough))

-Sam as Frederic, the Pirate Apprentice

-Ellen as Ruth, a Piratical Maid of all work

-Henricksen, Detective Ballard, and Deputy Kathleen Hudak as the Sergeant(s) of Police (It's a committee, okay?)

-Ruby as Mabel, Meg as Edith, Bela as Kate and Jo as Isabel

-Bela, Ruby and Jo again as "Three Little Maids from School" who keep showing up randomly even though it's the wrong play, and no one is certain which trio are the real ones.

In the end, Dean keeps Sam away from Ruby (somehow), nobody marries anybody, the musical curse ends, everyone goes back to normal, the deceased and obliterated go back to wherever they were, the Trickster swears off Gilbert and Sullivan forever, and Sam angsts. The end.

-

...And if anyone thinks I'm taking this any further than that, you're on way more crack than I am. Although, if anyone else wants to write it? Go crazy. :-)

OMG YAY I LOVE YOU! *hugs* The spoiler is slowly leaking out, I have to think really hard to remember it. I haven't seen Pirates of Penzance but I think I'm gonna have to go Wiki it.

I haven't seen the actual play myself, but I saw "The Pirate Movie" in the '80s, which was 90% of the play, adapted for the 80's which made it very silly. It's the one that song "I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General" comes from.

	From: spndpfrdcrck	Date: March 2nd, 2008 07:59 am (UTC)		(Link)

Ohhhh I know that song. The play sounds very interesting. Hm...Netflix has 2 different versions of the play, one filmed in Australia and one in NYC and then the Pirates Musical....*is deliberating*

Oh crap. Modern Major General is now stuck in my head

	From: caffienekitty	Date: March 2nd, 2008 08:06 am (UTC)		(Link)

Bwahahahaha! Stealth-earworm! My work here is done! ;-D *whooshes off to bed*

(It's stuck in my head too, if it makes you feel any better. ;-) )

	From: spndpfrdcrck	Date: March 2nd, 2008 08:28 am (UTC)		(Link)

Oh that does make me feel better! As long as I am not alone in my suffering, I can survive. For further earworming:

I am the very model of a modern Major-General
I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral
I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical
From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical

I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical
I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical
About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse

*whistles innocently*

Damn you! Though know I really, really want to see Sam and Dean doing the "Orphan, often" dialogue. Because they ARE BOTH ORPHANS OMG

"'He is an Englishman'" is Pinafore, not Pirates."

"It's the one about duty."

"They're all about duty."

Ah, West Wing, how I miss you.

Frederic was born on 2/29, making him a leap baby, and he's indentured to the Pirate King until his 18th birthday, which they are happy to inform him is the 18th occasion that there's a leap year. Um. Right.

And "With Catlike Tread" and "Poor Wandering One" and "Tarantara" and "When a Felon's not Engaged in his Employment." -- Which HAS to be Henriksen's solo!

When a felon's not engaged in his employment
Or maturing his felonious little plans,
His capacity for innocent enjoyment
Is just as great as any honest man's
Our feelings we with difficulty smother
When constabulary duty's to be done
Ah, take one consideration with another:
A policeman's life is not a happy one.

Hee!

Oh yes! That solo is all Henricksen. :-D

(I think I replied to you twice with very similar comments about the Pirate King duet before. I apologize, I seem to still be a bit out of it :-P)

	From: eesia	Date: March 2nd, 2008 08:53 am (UTC)		(Link)

as we've seen with the probing in "Tall Tales" and the everything in "Mystery Spot", the Trickster seems to looooove repetition.
LOL, soooo true!

Sam and Dean arrive and have to break the curse by doing... something, but they aren't sure what at first
OMG, so true again. I would like to see once that Sam and Dean have a plan before throwing themselves into something.

LOL, you've made my day with this one.
*gets hurt from laughing*

	From: caffienekitty	Date: March 2nd, 2008 07:02 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Glad to have made your day :-)

-John and Bobby as the Pirate King. (Somehow.... It's crack, okay? Don't ask me.)

What - John dies at intermission, and Bobby's the understudy. Makes perfect sense.

...But then I'm on drugs too.

	From: gwendolyngrace	Date: March 2nd, 2008 05:06 pm (UTC)		(Link)

That would SO TOTALLY work.

Man... I think we have to do this as a round robin. Don't you?

	From: ravenrants	Date: March 2nd, 2008 06:45 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Ahhhh, my Pirates days. Swashbuckling, marauding, threatening... and DANCING!

Good times.

	From: caffienekitty	Date: March 2nd, 2008 07:26 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Heh, like I said, if anyone wants to take off with it, write a scene, do the whole thing, go ahead, fill your boots. :-) There is a hiatus on after all, and a hiatus is the season for crack.

Hmm... how easy is it to start a comm...? If I started one for this, it'd be a free-for-all, though. *ponders the idea*

	From: caffienekitty	Date: March 2nd, 2008 07:04 pm (UTC)		(Link)

That actually totally works, although I was thinking they'd both be it at the same time so we could get them doing "I am A Pirate Kiiiing!" as a duet. :-D

	From: astrothsknot	Date: March 2nd, 2008 11:51 am (UTC)		(Link)

That would make a great April Fools ep.

	From: caffienekitty	Date: March 2nd, 2008 07:05 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Totally. Maybe next year? :-D

	From: ficwriter1966	Date: March 2nd, 2008 01:29 pm (UTC)		(Link)

You? SERIOUSLY cracked my shit up.

I saw Pirates of Penzance on Broadway TWENTY-NINE TIMES in the early 1980s. Treat Williams, Jim Belushi, Gary Sandy - the Pirate King. Pam Dawber and Maureen McGovern - Mabel. Patrick Cassidy and Peter Noone - Frederic. Kaye Ballard as Ruth. It was AWESOME. At Patrick's final performance my buddies and I sat front row and sang along with the cast. Patrick gave us his knee pads and bought us ice cream at Haagen Dazs.

Ah, PIRATES. I was much younger then. :)

But THIS? I want Kripke to do this. As a 3-hour Special Episode.

	From: caffienekitty	Date: March 2nd, 2008 07:09 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Three hour special? Cool. Wouldn't they all have such fun with it? :-D
