Sam and max stories

Imitation stink

Ah, Stinky's diner. Home of the fudgie freeze. With its top secret ingredient known only to those brave enough, and intelligent enough, to comprehend its culinary complexity.

Max was trying to balance his ice cream scoop on his nose. "Look grandpa! I'm doing it! I'm doing it!" "quit foolin around max, we've got customers!"

But wherever there is a secret recipe, there is someone who wants to steal it.

At this moment, specs was wearing stilts and dressed up as a common man. "Hehehehehehehe.." he accidentally puts the costume head on too quickly. "Ouch." he then pulls a mirror out of nowhere and looks at himself. "And now for the final touch!" he said, putting a fake mustache on the costume head. "Perfect! With this disguise, that ingredient is as good as mine!" he maniacally laughs, then realizes and stops. He walks in the diner.

Max was still balancing the ice cream scoop on his nose. Costumed specs leans in. "Are you Maxwell Lucen?" Max takes the scoop off his nose and looks at himself in it. "Why, yes..." he tosses it somewhere. "Yes I am!" He looks up at the costume head.

"Then you've just won 1,000,000 dollars!" specs says, holding up a fake giant dollar. Max gasps and smiles. Specs leans in again. "You just have to answer one question!" he says. He leans back. "What is.. The secret ingredient in the fudgie freezes?"

Max takes a deep breath. "Yes?" specs asks. Max keeps breathing. "YES?!" specs asks enthusiastically. Max keeps breathing in. "YESSS?!?!" specs practically screams.

"The fudgie freeze is the sole property of Stinky's diner and is only to be discussed in part or in whole with its creator grandpa stinky. Duplication of this ingredient is punishable by law. Restrictions apply, results may vary."

Max smiles at him.

Specs starts to shake, then bursts out of the costume in anger, yelling and grabbing Max by the shoulders. "THAT'S IT! You better cough up that ingredient or else!"

"Specs!" grandpa says angrily. Specs lets go of max and angrily looks at him. "Stinky!" "SPECS!" "STINKY!"

"Max!" Max shyly pipes up.

Grandpa grabs specs by the back of the shirt. "You can't do this to me, stinky!" Grandpa takes him outside. "I went to college!"

Grandpa tosses him in the garbage. "Ouch."
"That specs is a clever beast.." grandpa says, then looks to max. "You gotta keep a sharp eye out for em' max!" he says with a wink. "The fudgie freeze law must be enforced! The future of Stinky's diner depends on it."

Max stands tall. "Don't worry grandpa stinky. As long as this tail is cotton, and this max is well," he lifts his arms up in the air. "I WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN!"

"Uh, max?" grandpa, who was suddenly being held up by Max, said. "Could you let me down?"

*screen wipe*

In the eating area, customers were enjoying their meals. "Man, these fudgie freezes sure are delicious." one says. "I wonder what's the secret ingredient?"

Suddenly, red lights start blaring.

"Code 12! Code 12!" Max says, rushing over and grabbing the guy's head. "Your disguises can't fool me this time, SPECS!" he yells, yanking the guy's costume head off.

But it turns out it was just a guy with an abnormally small head.

"Everyone at the head enhancement clinic said nobody would notice!" they guy says, bursting into tears and running away.

"Max!" grandpa yells, walking over angrily. "You're scarin' away me money!" "Sorry grandpa, I'm just trying to protect the secret ingredient!" Max responds. Grandpa puts his hand on Max's shoulder. "That's no reason to rip people's heads off boy! Just remember the most important rule!" "No free napkins?" Max asks. "NO! The OTHER most important rule! Regarding the secret ingredient." grandpa replies. Max smiles. "Only discuss the secret formula with grandpa stinky!" he says. Grandpa smiles. "As long as you do that, the secret formula is safe."
