The Snowball Fight


In my opinion, the funniest part of the episode The Mountain of Dreams is the snowball fight between Van and Irvine. It's only onscreen for about five seconds, but if you ignore Moonbay and Fiona and pay attention to the background sounds, it's actually really funny. Most of The Funny comes from the delivery of the lines, but as I am a cheap bastard I don't actually have any equipment to record those sounds. I do, however, have a television and a computer. For your ease, I have transcribed the infamous Snowball Fight scene. Enjoy. I don't think Van did.

Irvine: Hahahahaha! Ya missed! (Van throws one, misses)
Van: Oh yeah?
Irvine: Hahahahaha
Van: Just wait, I’ll getcha! ((onscreen)Van throws one, misses, Irvine throws one, misses, Van throws two, misses)
Irvine: Hahahahaha! Nice throw. ((onscreen)Irvine pegs Van in the head, knocking him down) (Score: Irvine-1;Van-0)
Van: Augh!
Irvine: Hahahahaha!
Van: Okay, that’s one. I gotcha! (Irvine throws one, hits Van)(Score: 2:0) Aah!
Irvine: Nah…
Van: Okay, okay, I (Irvine throws one, hits Van again)(Score: 3:0) Augh!
Irvine: Hahahahaha!
Van: Huh! (Van throws one, misses)
Irvine: Nice try.
Van: I can get you now! (Irvine throws a couple, hits Van)(Score: 5:0) Aaa-ha!
Irvine: Hahahahaha!
Van: Okay, now I’m gonna get you.
Irvine: Not really. (Irvine throws one, hits Van)(Score: 6:0)
Van: Aah!
Irvine: Hahahahahaha!
Van: Okay, I ah, (Irvine throws one, misses) You look over there, and then I’ll throw them at you.
Irvine: That’s a good idea.
Van: Ha! (Van throws one, misses)
Irvine: Hahahahaha! Nice shot! ((onscreen)Irvine throws one, misses)
Van: Huh! Huh! Huh! ((onscreen)Van throws three, misses every time) ((offscreen)Irvine throws one, hits Van)(Score: 7:0) Ow!
Irvine: You’re awful at this. (Van throws two, misses)
Van: Nuh uh.
Irvine: Haven’t you ever seen snow? (some sort of indistinguishable mocking) Hahahahaha!
Van: Hey knock it off!
Irvine: That’s not fair!
(Sounds of someone falling in the snow, perhaps being tackled?)

Van: Yaah!
