Stroker and Hoop

Stroker and Hoop

Stroker and Hoop are a pair of private investigators from Los Angeles, who act and dress as if it is still the 1970s. Despite their individual high opinions of themselves, both men are hopelessly inept at their job. Stroker fancies himself a suave ladies' man, but is generally unpopular and perceived by virtually every woman he meets as a repulsive chauvinist; and Hoop considers himself a crime-solving ace and master of disguise, when in fact he is a gullible nerd and all of his disguises are failures. Their only "advantage" over their competition is C.A.R.R., a talking AMC Pacer with its own neurotic personality. Because of their abysmal track record and less-than-stellar capabilities, the two men eke out livings solving crimes for people who cannot afford to hire more competent detectives. Invariably, their attempts to solve a crime result in bloodshed, violence, and thousands of dollars in property damage.

Talking Diamond:
Gentlemen, I think we owe Stroker and Hoop an explanation.

C.A.R.R.:
And me!

Talking Diamond:
As you know, for years, the name Diamond has stood for the pinnacle of achievement in many fields. [The 5 Diamond crew form an act as a hologram video projector of how the diamond name happened]

Stroker:
What the hell is this crap?

Talking Diamond:
Whenever an important project changed the way America thought about entertainment, you can bet the name Diamond was attached. "Diamond are forever". "Diamonds are a girl's best friend". "Touching you, touching me". "Hello, nasty". "Young Guns II". "Dustin Diamond teaches chess". Just to name a few.

Talking Diamond:
Recently, it was discovered long prophesized sixth diamond had been born. His name was Danny Diamond Schmickler, and he was born to take our careers to the next level. Before we could reach him, he was abducted by David Copperfield. If he is not found by midnight tomorrow, on the night of his 10th birthday, there will be no more famous diamonds.

[The 5 Diamonds fell down ending the act of the video]

Talking Diamond:
You boys help us find Danny, and I personally guarantee you'll be swimming in diamonds.

Stroker:
We're just the men for the job.

Hoop:
If there are no more famous diamonds, there will still be other famous people.

Talking Diamond:
Yeah, of course.

Hoop:
So, what difference would it make?

Dustin Diamond:
What difference would it make? I'll tell you! "SAVED BY THE BELL"! [slaps Hoop] "PAUL'S BOUTIQUE"! [slaps Hoop] "LA BAMBA"! [slaps Hoop] "FOREVER IN BLUE JEANS"! [slaps Hoop] SAVED BY THE FRICKIN BELL!

[Stroker and Hoop watches a random DVD that came from Stroker's yard]

Rod Larabie:
Hi, I'm Rod Larabie with an important message from the Pornography Film Institute. Won't you join me in helping pass down out porn to future generations? Without your help, classic moments like this, the first interracial midget 3-way in cinema history will soon vanish.

[the video goes to the next scene where they play Stroke-Her and Boob]

Hoop:
HOLY COW!

Hot Woman:
Somebody stole my jewels?

Hot Woman #2:
Let's hire Stroke-Her and Boob.

Hot Woman:
But they're the crappiest detectives in town.

Stroker:
[on TV] Did someone call for Detective Stroke-Her?

Hoop:
[on TV] And his lame-ass sidekick Boob?

Hoop:
Wow. What a makeup job.

Stroker:
We'll help you find the jewels.

Hoop:
Yeah, in our pants.

Stroker:
We'll start by doing to you what we do to all our clients.

[Stroker and Hoop have sex with the two hot woman]

Hoop:
Wow, they even got the birthmarks on Boob just like mine.

Stroker:
Stop being an idiot, Hoop. That is us.

Hoop:
Oh, my god, you're right. [disgust] OH, GOD. You're flexible, Stroker.

Stroker:
I just wish I remembered it.

Hoop:
Judd must have drugged us.

Stroker:
That explains the missing two weeks. We're porn stars. How cool is that?

Hoop:
This isn't cool. What if my Mom watches this?

Stroker:
We should probably watch it a couple more times for clues.

Trailer Narrator:
Coming soon, check your local video retailer for "Stroke-Her and Boob 2: They always get their man".

Hoop:
You're under arrest.

White Shirt Man:
For what?

Stroker:
For being number one on my most wanted list.

White Shirt Man:
Are you guys gonna nail me for it?

Stroker:
You bet your sweet ass.

Hoop:
[disgust] OH, GOD.

Stroker:
Judd is going to pay. [tries to break a DVD in half]

Stroker:
Hey, Double-Wide. Mind if I watch the game here? Cable idiots say they didn't get my check.

Double-Wide:
Stroker! Have a cigar.

Stroker:
Whoa, don't mind if I do.

Double-Wide:
You're just in time to check out my new invention. This one is gonna make me rich. Ta-da! [reveals his invention]

Stroker:
Looks like one of those ashtray air purifier things.

Double-Wide:
[laughs] One of those ashtray purifier things. Oh, Stroker! But wait. What have we here? Oh, my god! It opens up! Is that a mouth-watering rotisserie chicken smoking to perfection inside? Holy smokes, it is! It purifies the air while it smokes your meats. It's the Holy Smoker.

[Double-Wide shows Stroker an infomercial]

Double-Wide:
Let me show you my infomercial. You guys can focus group it for me.

Todd:
[on TV] You've heard all about the amazing ToddCo Lint Loom, right folks? Which takes ordinary dryer lint and weaves amazing designer sweaters just like the one I'm wearing now...

Double-Wide:
Well, well. Look who we have here. My old nemesis.

Todd:
Listen, it's nothing compared to what I am about to unveil. Do you want to remove the smell of tobacco from your home?

Double-Wide:
Of course.

Todd:
And do you love smoked ham?

Double-Wide:
Damn straight! Wait, what the hell?

Todd:
Introducing the ToddCo Secondhand Smoker.

Todd's Assistant:
Goodbye black lung, hello blackened snapper. [laughs]

Double-Wide:
That bastard stole my million dollar idea -- Again!

Stroker:
Double-Wide! Double-Wide, simmer down. It's just a coincidence.

Double-Wide:
Coincidence? Look at this. I call it my box of broken dreams. It's every invention that Todd beat me to market with. My home Liposuction Kit, the Blubber Scrubber.

Stroker:
I recognize that thing with the spring.

Double-Wide:
The Scrotum Hair Trimmer, rad-nads.

Stroker:
Yeah, that thing doesn't work for crap.

Double-Wide:
Yes, it does!

Todd:
Hey, folks don't you love the taste of hot dogs roasted over a campfire?

Audience:
Mmm...

Vicky:
But who wants the inconvenience of going outside these days? With the bugs, the rain, the teenaged rapists trying to molest your grandchildren.

Grandparents:
...

Todd:
Well, Vicky, now you can have the real camp experience without leaving the safety of your home. Introducing the ToddCo Kitchen Campfire.

Double-Wide:
This is insane. I wrote that exact idea in my journal last month.

Todd:
And they won't catch fire and burn you like those wooden sticks always do. Who wants a taste?

Stroker:
Me!

Todd:
Here you go, sir.

[Stroker takes a bite out of the smoking hot dog]

Stroker:
Oh...oh, my god. That's so good. [to the camera] ToddCo Kitchen Campfire is the original and the best. Now I can get a real campfire tastes without leaving the modern comforts of the Stroker Detective Agency. Look for us on the web.

Todd:
Hey, that is great, huh, folks? Hey, how about you, ma'am?

Double-Wide:
[to Stroker] The original? Whose side are you on?

Double-Wide:
Over here, please! Todd! I'd like to taste your sausage!

Todd:
Here you go, sir.

[Double-Wide takes a bite of the smoking hot dog]

Double-Wide:
Interesting. Tastes slightly gamey. Is this cooked all the way through? I hope I don't get food poisoning because you didn't add a built-in meat thermometer to the roasting stick. IF YOU'RE GONNA STEAL MY INVENTION, AT LEAST STEAL IT RIGHT, MORON!

Audience:
[gasps]

Todd:
This man is crazy. Get him out of here.

Double-Wide:
[to the camera] I want all America to know that this man stole my ideas. FraudCo! That's what you should call your company!

Audience:
[groans]

Double-Wide:
OH, YOU PEOPLE SUCK! I WOULD NEVER SELL MY INVENTIONS TO YOU! YOU ARE NOT WORTHY OF SIMPLE AND DELICIOUS COOKING!

Audience:
[boos]

Stroker:
Hey, if anybody has any clues on how Todd's stealing my client's ideas, call the number on this matchbook!

Todd:
[on phone with Stroker] I want you to bring me that disk and your friend Double-Wide, or else.

Stroker:
Or else what?

Todd:
I'm here with someone very special to you. And every 15 minutes, we're gonna cut off a finger.

Stroker:
Oh, god. Keith.

Todd:
Guess again.

Stroker:
Hoop?

Todd:
Nope.

Stroker:
Angel?

Todd:
Your girlfriend.

Stroker:
...Um, I don't have a girlfriend.

Vicky:
[to Todd] Give me the phone. [to Stroker] Don't play stupid. We've got Paula.

Stroker:
Paula, Paula, Paula. God, man, mmm...

Vicky:
I'm losing patience. Dr. Paula Bowman.

Stroker:
My dermatologist? She's not my girlfriend.

Vicky:
Play the tape.

[Surveillance Guy plays the tape of Stroker and Double-Wide while having a secret camera in the car]

Stroker:
I know, it was the weirdest thing. I mean, there she is giving me a hernia check and uh, hey, I guess she liked what she saw, you know--

Double-Wide:
Your dermatologist?

Stroker:
Well, yeah, I mean, it started as a mole check, you know, but one thing led to another and, uh, we did it on that bench thing with the crinkly paper and now she's my lady.

Dr. Paula Bowman:
That never happened.

Stroker:
[on phone] Yeah, I think your machine mistaped or something. Sorry, guys. Not gonna risk my life for my dermatologist.

Vicky:
Cut off her finger.

Stroker:
Wait, what?

Todd:
[to Paula] Now, don't worry, you won't feel a thing. It has a patented self-sharpening edge that can slice through tin cans like watermelon. It also juliennes.

Dr. Paul Bowman:
NO!

Stroker:
Alright, alright, ok! I'll bring the damn disk.

Vicky:
Meet us at Camino Ensino Los Padres if you ever want to see your dermatologist with fingers again. [hangs up]

Stroker:
Camino Ensino Los Padres, Camino Ensino Los Padres-- Oh, crap! Camino Ensino Los Robles -- Padres. Oh, Camin -- Crap. [calls the number again]

Stroker:
Uh, hey, could you give me that address again? I don't have a pen.

Vicky:
It's ToddCo Headquarters.

Stroker:
Well, you should've said that in the first place instead of trying to be all badass and--

Vicky:
14 minutes.

Stroker:
Wait a minute, you're going to count your bad directions?

Vicky:
[hangs up]

Stroker:
You b*tch!

[Stroker gets into interrogation of why he sneaks into Area 52]

Stroker:
I can explain everything.

Detective:
We went to your house. It was empty except for a few dozen bottles of pain pills and some "Alf" DVDs, you sick freak!

Stroker:
My house was empty because the FPI came and carted everything away. The pain pills and "Alf" DVDs aren't mine. They were for an alien named Khan'Ja.

Detective:
When you ran out of things to sell to pay for your pill addiction, you robbed your brother at gunpoint.

Stroker:
That was a business opportunity. He'll thank me someday.

Detective:
What did you mean when you told the guards you were the King of the Earthlings?

Stroker:
Let me start from the beginning. The other morning, I was out jogging--

Detective:
[slams desk] Now you expect me to believe you were jogging? I've heard enough.

Stroker:
Call the FPI. They know about the alien communicator.

Detective:
I don't need to call the FPI. They call me. And if you think Franklin Pharmaceuticals has--

Stroker:
Wait. What's Franklin Pharmaceuticals?

Detective:
FPI, Franklin Pharmaceuticals Incorporated. You were arrested trying to break in there to steal drugs. Now don't tell me you were too high to remember!

Stroker:
Don't be so naive. That's just a front for Area 52.

Detective:
Your brother is pressing charges.

Stroker:
Look, I have the account numbers and passwords right here. Here, give these to him.

Detective:
[reads the paper] Stroker's to-dos. "Rob brother to get money for pills. Return ALF DVDs".

Stroker:
No, there's some mistake.

Detective:
Stroker, stop, please. We found your suicide note.

Stroker:
What?

[Detective plays Stroker's message]

Stroker's Voice Message:
"Goodbye. I'll miss you. Where does this road lead to? I'm lost. The pain is unbearable. Where is the nearest pharmacy? My name is Stroker. This is not my home planet. I have to go now".

Stroker:
Oh, crap. KHAAAAN! Ja!
