What Did Sam Forget On The Moon?
If you haven't started Episode 5 yet, you may want to skip this post.
This is mostly for those of you who have read the Sam and Max comics.
At the beginning of #5, if you click on the picture of Sam and Max on the moon, Sam says something to the effect of "I can't help but feel like I forgot something on our last trip to the moon."
The picture clearly ties into the comic "Bad Day on the Moon" (reprinted in Surfin' the Highway) which was also used for an episode of the Sam and Max animated series, remaining reasonably faithful to the original comic. This can be evidenced by the paper bags that Sam and Max are wearing.
Now much like Max was wondering in episode 3 where his boxing glove had disappeared to with the punchline to the joke showing up in episode 4, I expect this is a joke that will pay off in episode 6 when we'll finally find out what it is Sam forgot on the moon.
Now I'm wondering...what do you think it is Sam forgot? And do you think there is a clue within the comic and/or the animated cartoon?

there is at least a clue within the
here's another hint:
And for those of you that need a review of what happened last time on the moon, go here!

Basically the idea is, a Starfleet ship visited a planet 100 years before the Enterprise arrives, and a crew member left behind a book about 1920's gangsters. When Kirk and Spock beam down, they find the planet's inhabitants thought the book was some sort of divine holy text, and formulated their entire society based around it. At the end of the episode, when they leave the planet, McCoy leaves his communicator behind.
So the idea is probably that Sam and Max left behind a tacky piece of tourist Americana junk that inspired a total crass-culture-ization of the Moon (as seen in the screenshots). And for added humor they'll probably leave something else behind when they leave, as in the Star Trek episode.
You might be on to something. Anyone seen the images at gametap. There is a bent spoon or a broken golf cub tip? in a glass jar, being held by a mole person.
That could be the thing that they left behind
I certainly hope so
Can someone post a link to the comic on here?
What did doom saber forget on the moon?
..
- max's speech where he says "better get the serious toothpaste" in episode 4
- specs forgetting wizzers birthday (they are the same age, as discovered in episode 4)
- the jesse james hand carbon dater comment in episode 5
- the office carpet not matching the drapes
- the impeech max posters on the street
- the whole "what has jimmy been up to" conversation in episode 5
- the missing boxing glove
i am sure there are others i have forgotten...... but the jokes that span over 1 or 2 episodes make me laugh the most
Edit: they even made fun of the fact that most of the things in the office always have the same tag lines when you click on them.... in episode 4 when you click on the bulletin board sam says his usual "i though this would be usefull" line, but then max says.... "you always say that"
LMAO I actually find the shift key comment hilarious. I thought your reasons was that I fogot to capalize something in my paragraph since my keyboard doesn't work so well after eating, drinking, and sneezing over it. My shift key was actually messed up a few days ago because of crap under it. LOL
As for what I left on the moon, maybe it was my virginity.... Oh wait, I still have it.
Dang!
Don't you have 2 of them? :rolleyes: ..... unless you are using an amish keyboard, they only have one shift key, but they have 2 enter keys and 2 space bars..... and instead of an escape key, they have......
No duh I have two. However, I use both keys, depending on where the keys are and I tend to overlook what I write sometimes. The last time I checked, this isn't the "Let's pick on Doom Saber" thread? :rolleyes:
i also had one of those talk and type things, but the damn thing could never understand my pittsburgh accent, and it always thought i was swearing when i wasnt (then i fell asleep with the headset on, and it got crushed by my fat ass) so i am back to typing normally (with my face
Best -- or possibly worst -- episode ever. Spock had to wear this stupid hat so no one would notice his pointy ears.
Or am I thinking of a different episode where he and Kirk dress up like gangsters?
I think the episode where Spock wears the hat so no one would notice his ears was the time they went back in time and Spock was making a transistor radio.
