Watch Ctrl Alt Del online: Episode 10 A Nerd Hope

A parody of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Two boys are in a small to mid-sized SUV, being chased by a larger, longer, white limousine. One of the boys sticks an unknown CD inside a Splinter Cell case and tosses it out the window, which lands on the doorstep of someone's house. Shortly after, their vehicle runs out of gas and slows to a halt. Jack Thompson (with a Darth Vader like demeanor) walks out of the limo (with a 'squad' of men in blue suits trailing behind) and demands to the two boys to know where the plans are that were stolen from his office. The 2 boys make a bogus excuse like a "munchies run", but Thompson orders the car to be torn apart and munchies to be found unopened. Roll Opening Ethan opens the front door, boasts of another day of ignoring the world and playing video games, and picks up the CD that was thrown out of the window by the 2 boys, thinking it's a free game. He attempts to read the instruction manual, only to find a piece of paper with the message: "Help me Benjamin Kotarski. You're our only hope.". Ethan recalls that this message may be referring to "old Ben K from next door". He rings his next door neighbor's bell and is greeted by an old man with a white beard dressed in a brown robe (like Obi-Wan Kenobi). Ethan tells him about a disc and is let inside. Ben tells of his old days when he fought in the "console wars" as a member of the "Nintendo knights", master of the "ownage". Ben pops the disc inside a player, and a video of one of the 2 boys from the beginning of the episode. The boy tells of plans of a device by Jack Thompson to destroy all video games forever. Ethan volunteers to tag along Ben to learn the ways of the ownage Back at Ethan's place, he asks Lucas for a ride and if it's fast whereas Lucas replies "Are you kidding! It made a run to the donut shop down the street in 12 minutes!". Ethan states his will to borrow it and leave before Lucas can fully object. Zeke hears of the plans and wants to come along. In order to keep Zeke's identity a secret, a series of disguises are fitted onto him in sequence including a lady's blue, rimmed hat with a ruffled puffy like decorations, a crew cut wig with pointy elf or Vulcan ears, a C-3PO skull fitted right over Zeke's head like a helmet, and then finally a finally looking pair glasses with obviously fake eyebrows and fake big nose. Ethan answers Zeke's concern of it working by saying "it works for Superman". Meanwhile Jack Thompson is testing his fully powered anti-gaming billboard that reads in large letters VIDEOGAMES ARE BAD, with BAD in red. Upon unveiling the billboard, nearby gamers walking down the street and fresh out of a video game store stare at the sign in shock, and promptly discard their video game boxes. While Lucas is driving Ben and Ethan, Ethan exclaims his need to pick up Lilah from an NPGA tournament. Lucas reluctantly agrees. Until they get there, Ben attempts to further Ethan's skills in the ownage by placing a paper bag over his head and asking him to play his DS game by letting "the ownage flow through you". As Ethan runs in to find Lilah, Ben and Jack meet up outside of the building where Lilah is at. They stare at each other (through splitscreen) as if ready for a showdown. Ethan meets up with Lilah, who assumes something is wrong to boot. Ethan rambles on about Ben Kotarski, games, Jack Thompson, destruction, and ownage to Lilah and drags her out of the building by her arm. Ben and Jack "duke it out". Ben claims he's been playing video games 20 years and never turned violent. Jack retorts saying that as a law guy, Ben's common sense and facts are meaningless. Jack rants on about how he has scientific evidence. Ethan, Lucas, Zeke, and Lilah find Ben collapsed at Jack's feet. Ethan screams his despair at losing Ben. The four of them are back at their house. Zeke, at a computer determines from a blueprint of the billboard sign that its weak point is its left leg. Attacking it could cause a chain reaction that will destroy the sign. Ethan is optimistic, saying he used to attack all sorts of stuff. Lucas wants to watch a show on TV so he's out. Ethan is in his car making a run on the sign with Zeke and Lilah at the house on radio for support. He gets approached by Jack Thompson's white limousine and is unable to shake him, but a green car zips up and swerves itself between Ethan and the limo, forcing the limo to go off the road. The other car was driven by Lucas, who's show turned out to be a rerun. Having a clear run at the sign, Ethan is interrupted by the ghostly head of Ben, telling him to "use the ownage". Ethan stops the car short of the sign, gets out, and kicks the sign's left leg 3 times. The sign falls over, explodes into a big flame, and everyone in the gang cheers. Back on their couch at home, the four of them are sitting together and Ethan says "I'm bored. Anyone got anything else we can blow up?"
