Google Search and Google Maps are at the front entrance checking in apps and ensuring they are on the guest list. Myspace and Black Planet have a hard time getting in the show.
Google Search:
Name please! What is your name sir?
Black Planet:
Black Planet…my name is on the guest list. Can you let me know where Wakanda is seated? I am supposed to be sitting by her and BET.
Google Search:
Noop…I don’t see your name. I have never even heard of you. Please stand to the side.
Black Planet:
Dang…I feel app-salty!
Google Maps:
Hello, name please!
Myspace:
I’m Myspace. I have been on social media networking for years. I am on the guest list.
Google Maps:
No, you are not! I heard you got killed by some bad Trojan virus. Please stand to the side so we can get to the rest of the apps in line.
Black Planet:
There must be some mistake on your part. I am supposed to be presenting an award tonight! You have to let me in!
Myspace:
Me too, I am supposed to be presenting an award as well.
Google Maps and Google Search:
Sorry! Your names are not on the list!
Black Planet: (Trying to call Wakanda)
Wakanda! Wakanda…can you please pick up. I am stuck outside. Did you send me to the right location? Is there another entrance for me, like VIP? I have been standing out here for almost two hours trying to reach you. When you sent me this location you told me my name was on the list. You told me the time and place to come through. Why won’t you answer? I am just trying to focus on communicating with you to see if I am at the right location. Myspace is out here trying to get in too!
YouTube:
Okay we are back and our next App Award will be presented by Pandora and Pinterest. They will be presenting the Most Popular App Award.
Pinterest:
No matter what I do, all I think about is this app; especially when I’m with my Boo, I am crazy over this app and thrilled I get to present an award with her. I know the east coast apps, the down south apps, west coast and the Midwest apps are all swinging to the beats and music of the coolest app there is, Pandora. You don't know what you mean, to me!
Pandora:
Aww, thanks so much Pinterest. You’re a Bad Mama Jama! You are just as fine as a pin can be; built and stacked all over the place helping to promote all of these businesses for free! You have all the interest that the world likes and loves to pin. We certainly can’t live without you.

Our next category is the Old School App Award. This award will be presented by Mr. Yahoo and Ms. Hotmail.
Yahoo:
Hotmail, I’ve been watching you for so very long, trying to get my nerve built up to be so strong. I’ve always wanted to meet you but I was kind of scared, because you’re the kind app with so much class. Now I have a chance to get my thoughts together for this very fine day. As I stand next to you, I forgot the lines I’m supposed to say. Your eyes and hair; such a beautiful tone. The way you walk and dress really turns me on.
Hotmail:
Mr. Yahoo, well come and talk to me then. I am right here in your face. I have always wanted to meet you too! Can I talk to you? I really want to know you! Let’s talk about this at the after party and get to the nominees.
Yahoo and Hotmail:
The nominees for the Old School App Award are: Black Planet, eBay and Myspace. The winner is!
Brief pause as Instagram and YouTube inform the announcers that Black Planet and Myspace have not arrived in the building as of yet. eBay is in the building but is not the projected winner.

I never knew there was a love like this before (a love like this before, no)! I never had someone to show me so much love; a love like this before! I never thought the App Awards would be a special part of me. I am so amazed that this app is mines. I am speechless with honor. Thank you!
Instagram:
Wait! Hold up! Now you guys know how much I love taking pictures. You also know how much YouTube enjoys recording stuff. If you could have seen the faces of those in the same category with Wakanda who did not win…oh my app-gosh! Apps, this is live! Watch yourselves!
YouTube:
Yeah, Wakanda was definitely rocking that Black Panther Jumper! I saw a lot of app-hating! We have to be happy for each other! Accept Wakanda for who she is. Accept Wakanda for all the great things that she can do as an app; don’t try to make her apps over with negative energy! It’s her time! Now you know we can't live without Wakanda!
Instagram:
Harm me with harmony….Tube drop a load on’em!
YouTube:
APP, how can I explain it? I’ll take you frame by frame it, to have you all jumping, shouting and sangin’ it! You down with APP (Yeah you know me)… You down with APP (Yeah you know me). Who’s down with APP (All the app-homies)?
Instagram and YouTube:
It has been a blast. Thank you and have a good evening. See you apps at the after party!
Myspace and Black Planet finally enter the show as it ends. Black Planet is looking all around for Wakanda. She is nowhere to be found! Black Planet asked one of the other apps in the background who received the App of the Year Award. The app replied, Wakanda 4Eva did!
