Fade out,and of act 1 scene 1
| After the fact the WWF made this statment:Pepper ... Not a delicacy after all The World Wrestling Federation's favorite pooch, Pepper, gave a sterling performance during his final episode of WWF SmackDown! on Thursday night. In a dramatic scene, Pepper's character was braised at the hands of his owner's nemesis Big Boss Man. Spokespeople for Pepper today say the canine was looking to take some time off to spend with his family so he asked to be written out of the show. As for Pepper's future plans, the pooch would like to try a comedic role and says he might like to return to the WWF sometime down the road. It would not be the first time a soap opera would have to bring a character back from the dead. For months, Al Snow and Big Boss Man have been engaged in one of the fiercest wars in the brief history of the Hardcore Division. The two superstars have battled both in and out of the ring, exchanging the Hardcore Championship on numerous occasions. Their war started in July at Fully Loaded when Al Snow, who was visibly bothered by the loss of Head, begged the Boss Man to put him out of his misery. The Big Boss Man took advantage of Snow's distress, and walked out of Fully Loaded as Hardcore Champion. Things were looking bleak for Al Snow. Then came Pepper.Al was happy again.However, his happiness didn't last long, as the Big Boss Man quickly dog-napped Al's buddy. Al Snow will be looking for revenge Sunday, Sept. 26, when he faces the Big Boss Man inside the confines of a steel cage, which will be surrounded by a steel cell. The first man to escape both structures will be declared the victor

| Some Beasts Are Too Good For Wrestling Karen Hochwald used to like to watch professional wrestling on TV. Oh sure, she knew it was just a bunch of hokum, but it was good for a laugh. But Karen, 37, of Irvine, isn't laughing at pro wrestlers any longer. Not since they cooked the Chihuahua. Maybe I'd better explain. It seems that a pro wrestler named Al Snow had a Chihuahua named Pepper. The wrestler and the tiny dog had formed a symbiotic relationship, with the Chihuahua apparently serving as a kind of replacement brain for Al, who had suffered extensive neurological trauma when a stake was pounded through his head in the ring. Alas, whenever Al and Pepper walked into the ring, the dog was showered with verbal indignities from Al's many enemies. The Blue Meanie kept calling Pepper a "hamster." And the Boss Man threatened to "pop Pepper's head like a bug" and "turn him into a corn dog." Which is more or less what finally happened. Defeated in the ring, Al Snow had to suffer the heartache and indignity of having his beloved Pepper skinned, cooked and served to him for supper. No, no, Pepper wasn't actually skinned and eaten - any more than Al Snow actually had a stake pounded through his head. It was just a typically silly, elaborately staged World Wrestling Federation story line. But Karen Hochwald didn't think it was a bit funny - for two reasons: First, the little dog was trembling and obviously terrified at being surrounded by 15,000 screaming, hysterical wrestling fans; at one point on the videotape I watched, the dog was so scared that it urinated on an announcer. And second, at a time when millions of kids watch pro wrestling and act out the roles of wrestling stars, Karen wonders how many of them might get the idea it'd be cool to pop a Chihuahua's head like a bug - just like the Boss Man said. "The Chihuahua may not have been physically hurt, but this was mental cruelty," says Karen. "And what kind of image is this for kids?" A rotten one, says Kathy Bauch of the Humane Society of the United States, which has received dozens of complaints about the incident. "It's a message that's very troublesome," says Bauch, who filed a beef with the WWF - so far without much response. "Inevitably someone out there will see this as sanctioning these types of acts involving animals." Now, by this time some of you may be thinking, "C'mon, the dog wasn't hurt. And it was just a show. What's the big deal?" And it's true that, with all the other very real cruelties inflicted on animals every day, most people probably won't get too worked up about a scared Chihuahua. Still, a lot of unseemly animal acts have been popping up in the culturally challenged world of pro wrestling recently. For example, in a particularly appalling spectacle, a Huntington Beach weightlifter supposedly "wrestled" a grizzly bear at Hollywood Park Casino in Inglewood on Sunday - but only after the terrified bear was lured into the ring with big chunks of raw chicken. So in the end, I guess I'm with Karen Hochwald on this one. Chihuahuas and grizzly bears and other animals don't belong in the pro-wrestling ring. That should be left to the lower animal species. Like Al Snow and the Boss Man and the Blue Meanie.

| PTC/Take out the Trash Thursday-Sept 3,1999 In the most offensive segment of the show, wrestler The Boss Man convinces another wrestler All Snow to eat some food before giving Snow back his dog, Pepper. The food Snow eats is the dog, according to The Boss Man. The Boss Man then beats up Al Snow as he throws up. He screams, "Pepper's not going to take the elevator today. You're going be eating the little son-of-a-bi*** [bleeped out]. I told you if he bit me again, I was going to send him straight to hell. Huh? You understand me Al? You can understand me what this is all about? This is hardcore, and you can damn well bet…huh? You can damn well bet, huh, that I am hardcore all the way. I told you Pepper was going to live with you for the rest of his life, unless you go for the poop chute or something. Well, understand me, Al, that I am hardcore and Pepper is a little bast*** [bleeped] and you're a dumb son-of-a-bi*** [bleeped]." During this tirade, he throws Snow around the room and beats him with a police baton before finally choking him with it.
