*Laughs as the rigged jet-pack explodes, killing AWK. AWK's head falls to earth and lands at YIYF's feet, splitting open as it hits the floor. YIYF crushes what is left of the brain to prevent any possibility of AWK reforming or returning from the grave, and the sticks the severed head on a spike out side the Frobozzco building. YIYF than goes to his office and gets a Ouija board out from his desk drawer. Using the Ouija board, he contacts the spirit world and requests that the spirits stop any attempt by AWK to return from the afterlife in another body or as a ghost. The spirits, who are in debt to YIYF (but that's another story) oblige*
*YIYF sighs at AWK's super-lame 'replicant' excuse then laughs as the rigged Aston-Martin Explodes, killing AWK. This time there are no remains, so YIYF doesn't need to crush the brain and stick the head on a spike, but he repeats the Ouija Board ritual just to be sure. Before leaving the office YIYF takes one last look at the readouts beamed to his office from the Aston-Martin via satelite moments before it exploded - the DNA reader installed in the sterring wheel confirms that it was the real AWK who was destroyed in the explosion*
I think it's rather obvious that AWK was a replicant. I mean, first off, he had no real emotions. He had to fake emotions using smiley faces in each post. Secondly, judging by the time of his posts, and the fact that he's ALWAYS here (except when he's not, but even then, he's probably just socking or something), he obviously doesn't sleep.
How many real people do you know who don't sleep or have any emotion?
On a lighter note, isn't an Astin Martin a drink? No, wait, that's an Astin Martini. And there's one sitting in my office right now.
A spate of posts by AWK rendered the FrobozzCo headquarters uninhabitable for a whole 10 days. Ricardo was the first man brave enough to attempt a re-entry, and must be commended.
