[edit] Transcript

{The King of Town is standing outside next to his castle. One of his sheep stands behind him.}

THE KING OF TOWN: Hello, my loyal subjects. I am the King of Town. Please remain standing while I finish my speech and consume the contents of this bowl. {holds up a bowl momentarily} Now, despite rumors to the contrary, I did not just buy a crown at the costume palace and ask people to start calling me the King of Town. I earned my title the same way I earned a free combo meal: by purchasing one of equal or lesser value. I also did not ever try to eat my own mustache. I live in yon castle {gives a nod to his castle}, and employ a Poopsmith for reasons I don't care to disclose. And furthermore, now I'm going to eat this bowl of corn dog batter. {picks up a bowl of corn dog batter and begins to eat it}

[edit] Fun Facts

• The King of Town's claim that he did not ever try to eat his own mustache is a blatant lie.
• At the end of the clip, the sheep continues chewing, even though the VCR is paused. This is because the sheep was created as a movie clip, which animates independently of the main timeline in Flash.
• The King claims he got his title (and a value meal) by purchasing one of equal or lesser value. Typically one would earn a promotional item by purchasing something of equal or greater value.
