Title: "Spellbound Tech Support"
INT. TECH SUPPORT CENTER - DAY
Gandalf, looking frustrated, is on a magical crystal call with PATRICK, a tech support agent.
GANDALF: Yes, hello. I seem to be having trouble with the spell "Aqua Eructo." It's not producing water as it should.
PATRICK: Okay, sir. I apologize for the inconvenience. Let's try a few troubleshooting steps. Have you checked your magical energy levels?
GANDALF: sighs Yes, yes, they're perfectly fine.
PATRICK: Alright. Have you tried using the spell in a different location? Sometimes environmental factors can affect spell performance.
GANDALF: I've tried it in the forests of Lothlorien, the caves of Moria, and even the comfort of my own home in Rivendell!
PATRICK: Hmm, that is unusual. Let me check the spell's database for any known issues or updates.
Patrick puts Gandalf on hold. A few minutes later, he returns.
PATRICK: I'm sorry for the wait. I couldn't find any issues with the spell. However, I did notice that it's been a while since your last system update. That could be the problem.
GANDALF: rolls his eyes Fine, fine. I'll update my system and give it another go.
Gandalf ends the call and proceeds to update his magical system. After a few minutes, he tries the spell again, but it still doesn't work.
INT. TECH SUPPORT CENTER - DAY
Patrick is still at his desk, looking stumped. Suddenly, DARTH VADER, a dark lord with tech expertise, walks in.
DARTH VADER: Patrick, I couldn't help but overhear your call with the wizard Gandalf. I believe I know the solution to his problem.
PATRICK: surprised Really? What is it?
DARTH VADER: The spell "Aqua Eructo" is a bit outdated. The new version is "Aqua Fluxus." It's a more efficient and reliable spell for water production.
PATRICK: impressed Thank you, Lord Vader. I'll let Gandalf know right away.
Patrick quickly contacts Gandalf and shares the solution. Gandalf, although a bit annoyed, is grateful for the help.
GANDALF: Well, I suppose I should keep up with the times. Thank you for your assistance.
Gandalf ends the call, and Patrick and Darth Vader share a chuckle.
FADE OUT.
