"oops...Lita knocked over a bunch of books by accident while we were practicing earlier today." Maya giggled as she grabbed the tape, placed it in the VCR, and pressed 'PLAY'...after zipping through the credits, the scene came up on Baron Kineho delivering his opening monologue...
"...so if travellers are coming, surely there must be treasure for me to steal..." the actor concluded. He turned and halted the actors playing the travelers. "Halt! All gifts must be turned over to the royal treasury!"
"We worked hard to earn these gifts, and we plan to give them to Queen Medli herself!" one traveler protested
Baron Kineho smugly drew his sword and placed the blade at the traveler's neck. "Care to repeat that little comment?" he growled.
"Oh! Who can save us now/" another traveler cried.
"Never fear, citizens!" cried a familiar voice from offscreen.
Baron Kineho tensely backed away from the cornered travelers. "Oh no...not him...anyone but..."
"It is I, the Masked Avenger!" Ash's voice proclaimed from the TV screen.
