I don’t talk much. I spend alot of time with my friend, just hanging around. My friend is an idiot who is always looking to score. But something tells me he’s a little into guys. I met Luke Skywalker, although thats not what I called him. I’ve also saved animals from horrible doctors, assisted in a jewel robbery, punched an angel and I’m always wearing armor. Who am I? ---

Nobody’s even attempted this one yet…but it might be a wee bit TOO obscure… > [@RobuSensei](#): > > I was alone in the dorm, minding the phone like the upperclassmen asked/told me to do. After I took a message for the head of the auto club, I tried to call him and tell him about it. By some stroke of luck, I dialed a wrong number, and got this incredibly hot girl on the line. How do I know she was hot? She immediately came over to keep me company! However, it was a men’s dorm, and what with one thing and another, I got kicked out, and ended up moving into this old house with the divinely beautiful girl, and her two meddling sisters. And a newer, easier one: Well, our mentor and coach died suddenly before our last game, and I lost hope for a while. I was ready to give up, take the easy payoff, and run away. But before I got too far, a chance encounter at the airport made me realize that I had to go back and go for the win anyway. ---

I love my job. I know some people say that, but I mean it. All I need to get through the day is my prized possesion, and everything’s fine. I haven’t recieved a paycheck in a while, but I’m sure I’ll get all the money that’s coming to me. ---

They took me away from my mom, and all my brothers and sisters. Now I live with a lot of weird creatures - some are nice but some are really mean. I’ll win the contest in the end! Bet that’ll do. ---

I don’t know any of the open ones. Here a couple of my favorites, tho. 1.) For years that was the last thing he said to me each night. “Good Night; good work. I’ll most likely kill you in the morning.” 2.) I woke up in a bathtub with no memory and a small puncture wound in my forehead. _I don’t remember who I am._ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/guess-the-tv-movie-character-a-game/352122.md?page=4) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/guess-the-tv-movie-character-a-game/352122.md?page=6)
