Jane Espenson, erklär mir wie das funktioniert
Die olle Jane hat auf ihrem Blog Dr. Horibble gelobt und dabei gemeint:
Check out the joke in the first segment, the one about "Bait and Switch." This is a brilliant joke. Go watch it and then think about it for a bit. Figure out how it works and then construct your own jokes using the same principles. Genius!
Das Transskript sagt dazu:
Dr. Horrible: Hey, didn’t you ahh. Didn’t you go on a date last night? Conflict Diamond told me you were doubling with Bait’N’Switch.
Moist: Yeah, Ahhh..
Dr. Horrible: Yeah?
Moist: It was all right. I kinda thought I was supposed to end up with Bait, but…
Well, I'm too stupid for it. Kann wer helfen?

Bait & switch is a tactic where you offer up something as bait and your victim thinks they're gonna get it but then you switch in something else at the last second. Or, you give your victim an easy target to go after and at the last second switch in something that will whup his butt. That's about the best I can explain it. So here's the Wikipedia article which does a much better job!

... und plötzlich... ist es tatsächlich sehr lustig. sehr clever. vor allem auch, wie mit "Conflict Diamond" einen Halbsatz vorher die crazy namensgebung dieser Welt eingeführt wurde.
