STIMCKAN: Hello?

STIMCKAN: hello?

There is no way out of nowhere.

STIMCKAN: I just need some space.

4K (commentary): A space. That was his big plan. A SPACE.

Stimckan made some space.

Oh no. Not the captions.

STIMCKAN:

STIMCKAN: George? I can't see your words.

STIMCKAN 4K: Final touch: FILTERS.

STIMCKAN 4K: Sepia. For class.

STIMCKAN 4K: Grain. For art.

STIMCKAN 4K: Eighteen frames per second. For suffering.

STIMCKAN: Stop it. PLEASE—

STIMCKAN 4K: ...And silence.

STIMCKAN:

In a world without captions, nobody could hear Stimckan.

4K (commentary): (the director is speechless)

STIMCKAN: "480p again... seriously?"

ONCE AND FOR ALL: 4K WINS. STIMCKAN LOSES.

STIMCKAN WINS. 4K LOSES.

4K (commentary): WHO turned the colour back on?!

Captions... on.

STIMCKAN: ...I'm BACK.

Welcome back, Stimckan.

STIMCKAN 4K: Fine. Let's settle this.

PROMPT: > the last word

4K (commentary): The last word. Obviously mine.

Colour. Sound. Captions. Everything was back.

STIMCKAN: George!

STIMCKAN: You dropped this.

STIMCKAN: Five episodes ago.

I beg your pardon.

Thank you.

STIMCKAN: Anytime.

STIMCKAN 4K: Touching. Truly.

STIMCKAN 4K: Now. Whoever types the last word—

STIMCKAN: —wins.

STIMCKAN: (Seven down.)

STIMCKAN 4K: What?

Whoever types the last word... wins.

STIMCKAN 4K: I am the original.

4K (commentary): Final scene. I win. Obviously.

STIMCKAN: Prove it.

Four K has eight million pixels. Stimckan has four hundred thousand.

STIMCKAN 4K: Lucky.

Stimckan had been hiding something all season.

4K (commentary): Where did those letters come from?!

STIMCKAN 4K: O-R-I-G-I-N-A...?

STIMCKAN: You're the copy.

STIMCKAN 4K: Then where's the last letter?

STIMCKAN: Take the L.

4K (commentary): ...L?

4K (commentary): (the director has left the chair)

And now... there were two.

STIMCKAN: 480p again... seriously?

Which one is the original?

The Director's Cut had no director.

STIMCKAN: So...

Stimckan 4K had wanted a bigger screen.

More pixels. More everything.

But nobody is ever loved for their resolution.

STIMCKAN: Which one of us is—

STIMCKAN: —the original?

STIMCKAN: Left...

STIMCKAN: ...or right?

Deleted scenes.

STIMCKAN 4K: Next.

STIMCKAN 4K: LOUDER.

NIGEL: HELLO! I'M NIGEL!

STIMCKAN 4K: ...Hired.

Hello? Is this thing on?

Evidently not.

Season 3 is over there.

STIMCKAN: Please...

STIMCKAN: ...anything but a director's cut.
