Transcript

NARRATOR: It began as the best selling video computer TV game of all time. Not really. But still!

{Cut to a shot of the Peasant's Quest video game.}

NARRATOR: A simple peasant wearing short pants quested his way into the heart of the nation. Now, for his greatest adventure yet, he will quest... INTO THEATERS!!

{The video game Rather Dashing fades into a real-life version of him.}

RATHER DASHING: Where's my cottage?

{Fade through black to Rather Dashing in his burninated cottage.}

RATHER DASHING: TROGDOR!!!

{A few random scenes pass on by, before the Videlectrix logo shows up. It is soon modified to "Videlectrix Films". Cut to a throne room. Rather Dashing is in front of the King of Peasantry.}

KING OF PEASANTRY: We have coexisted with the Burninator in these lands for centuries. {Quick clips of a map of Peasantry and peasants being terrorized by Trogdor pass by.} I can't have you marching up there in your short pants upsetting the balance!

RATHER DASHING: I'll upset YOUR balance, my lord!

KING OF PEASANTRY: Rather Dashing, you will not sass back at this council!

NARRATOR: From the sort of people who brought you Trogdor and Litigation Jackson...

{Rather Dashing walks up to Poor Gary.}

RATHER DASHING: Easy now Gary, I'm just going to WEAR MASK.

{He does so, and Gary whinnies and runs away. Cut to inside a cottage.}

LADY PEASANT: Show me you're a real man, Rather Dashing.

{Cut to a lake.}

RATHER DASHING: THROW... BABY... ahhh!

{Cut to a forest.}

MENDELEV AND DONGOLEV: Haldo!

MENDELEV: I'm Mendelev...

DONGOLEV: I'm Dongolev...

{We see a shot of Naked Ned peering out from behind a tree.}

BLUE KNIGHT: Rather Dashing? More like Rather Homely!

{We see Rather Dashing eating a meatball sub. Cut back to the Archery. Mendelev is helping him train.}

NARRATOR: A Trog-venture for the whole Trog-Family!

{Cut to the outside of the Inn. Rather Dashing runs out screaming, with the pot of grease over his head. He hits the side of the Inn, and falls down. Cut to the Jhonka, who seems to just be a human beating the ground. Cut to the archery.}

RATHER DASHING: I'm just SO mad at Trogdor...

{Cut to Trogdor Cave entrance.}

BLUE KNIGHT: Access to Trogdor is strictly for peasants!

{Rather Dashing frowns. Cut back to Archery.}

RATHER DASHING: He just goes around burning things and doesn't even care!

{Cut to Trogdor Cave entrance.}

BLUE KNIGHT: You don't smell like a peasant...

{Cut to the Kerrek, jumping around. Rather Dashing is next to him, battling him, kills him, and gets his belt. Cut to Trogdor Cave entrance.}

BLUE KNIGHT: You don't dress like a peasant...

{Cut to Rather Dashing battling the Jhonka. Rather Dashing puts on the peasant clothes.}

{Cut to Trogdor Cave Entrance}..

BLUE KNIGHT: And you certainly aren't ON FIRE {his helmet lid slams shut} like a peasant!

{Cut to the rocky top of Trogdor's Cave. An on-fire Rather Dashing is climbing it. As Rather Dashing maintains grip on top, Trogdor flies in.}

NARRATOR: A quest for adventure! A quest for revenge!

{Trogdor screams and breathes his horrible fire. The Three Guards, who suddenly appear, wave their hands. Cut to the very top of the cave. It's midnight.}

NARRATOR: A quest... for a peasant! Peasant's Quest!

{The Peasant's Quest logo appears. Cut to film creation credits. Cut to the King's Castle.}

KING OF PEASANTRY: And the Trogdor comes... in the night.

RATHER DASHING: Not tonight he doesn't... come... in the night... Trogdor.

{Cut to a 3D-Render of Trogdor. He breathes fire. Cut to the Peasant's Quest Logo.}

Fun Facts

Ending Credits

Trivia

  • This was labeled as "Super Bowl halftime!!" on the main page, because TBC were putting their main update at halftime of the 2005 Super Bowl.
  • This is the single largest Flash file currently available on H*R.com, coming in at a whopping 13.4MB. That's nearly eight times larger than the runner-up, Puppet Jam: Tropical Lazor Beams.
  • The ending credits read:
                        Videlectrix Films
                   in relative association with

  • The word "pterodactyl" is incorrectly spelled "pterydactyl" in the end credits.
  • These credits are clickable for some reason; however, doing so doesn't seem to activate any easter eggs.
  • When Rather Dashing is climbing up the mountain, and you see him from the front, the background is that of the Stone Mountain trail to the top. It is a large granite mountain near Atlanta, near where The Brothers Chaps live.
  • We see that Craig Zobel is credited as the "cartographer", which is someone who makes maps.
