List of Concept Division showtapes (Johnsonverse)

This is a list of the six showtapes that were part of the Chuck E. Cheese's "Concept Division" process beginning in March 2015. Transcripts will come eventually.

The Munch's Make-Believe Band Show
This tape played for approximately one week while the stages were being remodeled.

Cast

 * Jaret Reddick as Chuck E. Cheese
 * Carolyn Richardson as Helen Henny
 * Jeremy Blaido as Jasper T. Jowls

Plot
The band, each member being shown on an individual CyberStar monitor on Center Stage, commentates on various showtapes made over the years, dating back to the late 1970s, all on larger monitors to the left and right. The tape is split into six parts, and at the beginning and end of each part, Chuck E., who is in the know, drops several clues as to who would replace the band, and leaves the rest of his band and the audience to figure it out themselves.

Clues

 * "An overall-clad bear who makes a different kind of gas" (Billy Bob)
 * "A technology-loving, constantly drunk red bird who lives in an oil barrel" (Looney Bird)
 * "A slow-witted brown dingo in an astronaut outfit" (Dook LaRue)
 * "A large, boisterous gorilla with a commanding presence" (Fatz Geronimo)
 * "A polar bear who loves to surf" (Beach Bear)
 * "A gossip-loving, cheerleading mouse clad in white and green" (Mitzi Mozzarella Jr.)
 * "A conceited, clueless wolf and wisecracking dummy" (Rolfe DeWolfe and Earl Schmerle)

Part 1

 * Jasper: Hey, what's going on?
 * Helen: Why aren't the curtains opening?
 * Pasqually: And why are we all on these-a monitors?
 * Mr. Munch: Seriously, what's going on?! Chuck E., did someone throw pizza on the stage again? We really need better security!
 * Chuck E.: Not this time, Munch. Actually, some young businessman named Mr. Johnson has told me everything. I don't know if you've heard, but pretty soon, this will no longer be a Chuck E. Cheese's.
 * (The entire band gasps in shock)
 * Helen: But what will this become?
 * Jasper: Hopefully, this new restaurant flops so this location can be changed back.
 * Chuck E.: Now, I'm shocked just as you are right now, but I can say that we will still be seen in other locations, so we won't disappear entirely, but we will be replaced in this particular location. I know who's going to replace us, but Mr. Johnson has told me not to give more than a few clues as to the individual members. Listen closely, people. This is going to be valuable. Okay, now one of the members is an overall-clad bear. He makes a different kind of gas. All right, that's clue number one. I repeat: an overall-clad bear who makes a different kind of gas. Take a guess, all right?
 * Pasqually: Hmm...that's a tricky one.
 * Mr. Munch: What kind of gas, exactly? Oh, this is too hard! I don't wanna leave!
 * Chuck E.: I know, and frankly, I don't want to, either. But this is our last show here, so let's make this one count. All right? Now, we're going to reminisce about the good times we've had all these years. We'll start all the way back at the very beginning. Back when it was just me, Pasqually, Jasper, and Crusty the Cat.
 * Jasper: I loved that guy! Why did he disappear?
 * Chuck E.: Well, he was fired by Mr. Bushnell for becoming a Communist.
 * Helen: ...ouch.
 * Chuck E.: Don't worry. He happens to be the worst Communist in the world. He thinks the Proletariat is the enemy, but HE'S the Proletariat.
 * Mr. Munch: I...don't think any of the kids in the audience are gonna understand what we're talking about.
 * Chuck E.: I know. But Mr. Johnson said we have to start appealing to adults more in addition to kids.


 * (A bigger monitor plays various clips from throughout the years.)

Part 2
'' * - These lines are played if the location is in Florida. ''
 * Chuck E.: Alright, we're back. Now, I'm sure you've been hearing a lot of noise from behind the curtains, right?
 * Rest of the band: Right.
 * Chuck E.: Well, they're doing work back there right now. These old stages have needed refurbishment for a long time, and what better time than when this place is becoming something else?
 * Jasper: I still don't wanna go!
 * Mr. Munch: They can't just toss us aside like trash! I've still got a lot of songs left in me! A-a-and there's still so much pizza I haven't eaten! This is inhumane!
 * Helen: Munch, this is no time to panic!
 * Mr. Munch: This is a perfect time to panic! Chuck E. Cheese's is done! Finished! Kaput! We're headed for the place all forgotten musicians go!
 * Pasqually: A retirement home?
 * Mr. Munch: No, worse! Florida!
 * Jasper: No! Not Florida! I hear their climate is crazy and their drivers crazier!
 * Helen: Uh, we're in Florida.*
 * Jasper: NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!*
 * Chuck E.: Everyone, please!
 * (The rest of the band goes silent)
 * Chuck E.: Like I said, we're just being replaced here. There's still plenty of Chuck E. Cheese's locations around the country that aren't making the switch!
 * Mr. Munch: I know, Chuck E., but...this particular location (insert joke pertaining to the location undergoing Concept Division)!
 * Chuck E.: Yeah, you got a point there. But Mr. Johnson is kind of...hard. Like, I tried persuading him not to go through with it.
 * Helen: How'd he respond?
 * Chuck E.: He threatened to set a girl named Rei on me.
 * Pasqually: That's a fate worse than-a death!
 * Chuck E.: You're telling me. Anyway, it's time for the next clue. This member is a technology-loving, constantly drunk red bird who lives in an oil barrel.
 * Jasper: That sounds like Pizzacam. Y'all remember him?
 * Helen: Yeah. It's a shame he became a libertarian and quit to protest Chuck E. becoming a, and I quote, "soulless corporate sellout".
 * Chuck E.: Well, we had to go public! It's the fate of all big companies!
 * Jasper: So, what's next on our look-back at the good old days?
 * Chuck E.: Someone I'm sure you're familiar with, Jasper. It's Harmony Howlette!
 * Jasper: *howls in excitement*
 * Mr. Munch: Say, whatever happened to her?
 * Pasqually: Last I heard, she was-a hosting the Denver Post Frontier Days rodeo!
 * (Segment ends and the bigger monitor plays part of the "Harmony's Hoedown" showtape, filmed from a private collection.)

Part 3

 * Chuck E.: Now that we're beginning Part 3, guys, it's time to perform our old birthday song one last time. Yeah, parties are bound to be held while this location is being converted.
 * Jasper: You mean...
 * Chuck E.: Yeah. "Birthday Extravaganza". Ready?
 * Helen: Sure am!
 * Pasqually: Of course-a!
 * Mr. Munch: Anything to distract us!
 * Jasper: I'd love to perform it again!
 * (The band performs "Birthday Extravaganza")
 * Pasqually: That was certainly a welcome distraction from what's-a happening right now!
 * Chuck E.: Couldn't agree more, Pasqually. Anyway, folks, here's our third clue: the keyboardist is a large, boisterous gorilla with a commanding presence.
