Excelent..
Pure amazingness.
I think a meet the real sniper would be awesome
the only gatcha game i'm into is tf2, you should get a tf2 sponsor
yes, tf2 the famous gatcha game haha
Ngl, but that spy's monologue hits hard, I started to see a spy as a actual team leader
I've always seen him as the most leader-like or leader-suitable of all the mercenaries
The Bucket Scene in Expiration date is what made me think that
He's the one who told scout to get people's wishes, he's probably the one who organized the meeting, he's the one who lead the Meeting by Giving an inspiring Speech to his "dying" allies, and reading out the wishes
Is more sane then most
engine named "ngl"
Just as in the fedora chronicles
Spy has been lowkey the team captain and often likes to take charge so this monologue of him hyping up the team kinda makes sense.
I was expecting the red spy to be the blue spy
@AniArtistMeexactly what I was going to say!!!
Team captain as in the most competent (thr only competent) merc
It feels like spy wasn't meant to be a mission impossible type instead but they changed
He is the only one who cares about some kind of structure, so he is in charge by default
I'll remind you all that in Expiration Date, Spy first gathered the team together so they could all have their last wishes granted, and then helped Scout ask out Pauling even though Scout was being a jackass to him the entire short. Too many people forget about this kind side of Spy.
its true, spy is the kindest and most loving merc def

@@mrukman2006 and demo and soldier funnily enough considering that youd assume that soldier was a complete asshole given how crazy and violent he is but soldier is a real sweetheart lol.
And pyro too i guess so long as he doesnt think you need more rainbows.....
I’m so happy to have worked with you Shork to bring this to life! It’s the most fun I’ve had working on a project in a long while!
What's scout doing in your pfp
I don't know why, but I feel as if this could lead into the actual "meet the spy," as in what he did after the pep talk.
Nade you are awesome, as a Grease Monkey Engineer I have to say "nice job partner"
@@luk4323
Scout pog
Well Scout is your dad
"Your indivual strengths, Speed, Accuracy, Brawn, Brain, Rage, Flame retardancy" Last one is my favorite strength spy said.
He's really hated Pyro. Even his own team Pyro.
Haha!
Wait, does that mean pyro's flame retardancy doesn't come from his suit, it's his natural superpower?
I'm planning an animation called "raging soldier". Spy said that soldiers strength is rage. So my idea of "raging soldier" is actually perfect.
what does retardancy mean?
Why does it feel so satisfying to hear spy say "bitch"
because he is one

I think during the Spy’s speech, they could’ve cut to Spy killing each class, showing how a good Spy knows how to exploit each class.
Scout’s cockiness
Sniper’s tunnel vision
And the general “kill the enemy while they’re distracted” for the rest.
Yep would be very cool
Oh that would work better as an alternative Meet the Spy Outtakes indeed.
I mean no offense but while beautifully animated and all,when you compare it to the rest of the monologues in Meet the Team...this one is kinda empty because it lacks any bit of gameplay.
Let's recap Meet the Team,the bits of gameplay: Heavy is shown using Sasha , Soldier destroys a sentry and rocket jumps to a roof and then hits a spy, Demoman has a very well mixed monologue with gameplay, Engineer is kinda weird but hey sentry guns, Sniper talks about his job and shows you around how he does it and finally the Spy...well you already know that.
Scout doesn't really count because we'll,it's just his intro and the rest is just him wrestling a Heavy,not strategically shooting or something which basically shows nothing.
@@xxsegaxx Even Scout has a bit of him running around, and even beating up a Heavy.
Gentlemen I see, I’ve been re-created

His speech would be fitting in an episode of the show that never was, or in a feature length film perhaps. Beautiful work from all of you.

I like to think that happened before Meet The Spy; like how the Medic outtakes happened before Meet The Medic

The reason that the Spy didn't end up having this "leader" spirit is in my opinion the fact that he isnt there to make money or be the leader.
He is there to protect his son, Scout.
And so he does what is needed to protect him, or just... keep an eye out on him in his mean, tough-love way.
That is the reason they changed it...
I think.
I feel like Spy caring about Scout in any fatherly way was born from Tom Jones and kind of died with Tom Jones. I’m sure Spy cares about Scout as much as he does anybody else on the team, but I wouldn’t say his only purpose is to protect him. It doesn’t make sense given his character and, hell, even his gameplay.
“Here lies Scout, he ran fast, and died a virgin.”
@@KiwiConductorlol
They changed it because his introduction video wasn't really introducing us to spy. We weren't shown his role, his theme and his abilities. The only thing that made him "The Spy" was his mask. This sounds like a much more reasonable... reason
@@FreshestCoolwhy? He is secret agent first, it is more puzzling why special unit like that would take mercenary contract instead of working directly for the government, especially during cold war.
While real life reason for spy is Team Fortress glitch turned into stand alone class, Spy being Scout's father gives pretty good in-game explanation for him being there. Other metrics there for the money (Scout, Sniper, Demo), fled from their country of origin (Heavy, Medic), or are simply insane (Soldier, Pyro)
Besides Engi, Spy is the only one who does need work for the contract, and giving him personal reason fixes that.
If you mean that his gameplay is not very protective, my man is secret agent. What you want him to do, headshot everyone with his revolver? He already tried it and got nerfed to the ground.
I think this short could’ve worked a lot better simply by changing the ending. Instead of spy just finishing his speech the rest of the team gets pumped and runs out of the room ready to fight, meanwhile spy stays behind and starts laughing as he changes color to blu, it would then cut to the rest of the red team running out to fight while the announcer says that the intelligence has been taken then scout says like “ah come on” or something cutting to the tf2 logo.
oooooooo! great idea!!
And then you just see the red spy in a locker Dead (or sex bombing scouts mum) as a after scene
@@ShorK id like to see someone do this suggestion
Spy starting out supportive and calm, devolving into "we're gonna choke this bi to death"
Meet the Spy is my favorite TF2 short of all time! Its so interesting to go back and see what could’ve been.
You haven't even watch the full video yet
and what's wrong?
My favorite is probably medic. And I don’t think Im the only one like that. I just saw this before I played the game and thought “yes. This will be my main” and he still is
Bot comment
@@LordVader1094🤓☝️
Alternatively: What if, the cinematic started with a clip of the blue team being massacred, then cuts to the speech in the blue base, where the blue spy is rallying the team after their defeat, with cross-cuts of him using his abilities during the battle shown at the start. Then, the blue team gets ready and heads out, running right into an ambush, and right as their medic is about to uber, sniper is about to headshot the Red medic, or some other game changing event, the blue spy, who was actually the red spy, backstabs them, leading the blue team to be slaughtered. The camera then pans out to reveal the dead blue team and how the 'blue' spy sabotaged them during the ambush he rallied them into, eventually showing the blue spy dead, his body hidden somewhere by the red spy, who took on his identity. It shows the abilities from either perspective and the power of spy in team battles, with the classic twist at the end.
Nonetheless, the one you fellows made was absolutely fantastic:)
That would make a fantastic meet the spy video.
I still love the one we got, but this suggestion makes more sense for a 'meet the' video that's consistent with most of the others (that being dialogue and gameplay style footage spliced together). I still understand it probably wasn't the original intention, but the potential interpretations are cool to see.
SOMEONE HIRE THIS DUDE
This is also a great idea
Good idea, but that's means we need another dialogue from other mercenaries
Did anybody else notice how one of Spy's lines was referencing Shakespeare's "Henry the Fifth", when its namesake gave a motivational speech to his soldiers?
"We bold few, we unnatural brothers."
3:40 ad skip time code 👍
thanks man
Thanks mate
Thanks
If not the actual version the meme "Your mother!" would not be existing every small thing can make a big difference in world
This game is a Timeless masterpiece and this is just one of MANY proofs of this
True, it wouldn’t be the same
The one we got is so much more better with a spectacular soundtrack
Spy is definitely the kind of a man to respond with "your mother" and back it up with pornographic evidence.
No, "Your Mother" was said before Meet the Spy. I heard it in other online games in the 2 to 3 years leading up to Meet The Spy, and it almost might as well have been a meme of its own even without TF2. It usually seemed to be a petty insult from my own team, or from people who for whatever reason never simply said "I'm just messing with you, don't worry" and it was usually in Call of Duty games. (Go figure?)
I did not knew this!
Still it would be a meme but I dont think it would be that big like when tf2 said that. Those are just my thoughts
Spy saying 'bitch' makes me happy for some reason I can't explain. I really love Spy's character, through the comics and through the Meet The videos and Expiration Date. I love this game so much 😭
it gives me the same feeling of my mom using gen z slang or something
TF2 😢❤
I like how Spy always asserts himself as the team leader like in Expiration Date
I'm so glad the VAs love this game as much as we do
Except engie, he doesn’t really care about it. I mean, he doesn’t have an obligation to or anything, but it’d be cool
Wow, what an amazing re-creation. Well done for all of you who worked on this. Both this and what we got are both incredible.
The narrative ones were definitely the right choices for Spy, Medic, and Pyro. We get their character of what they do along with who they are.
I'm glad Dennis was willing to give you that file even though it's not the actual audition audio it's still cool to have this. And I'm glad you let us get it ourselves. Great job on the animation and the whole vid really.
Happy to work with you guys! Was an honour to score the spy saying bitch :D

meet the spy written by vivziepop is now canon
Not entirely. Where are the weird ass demons, the furries, why aren't they constantly swearing, where are the sex jokes and most importantly:Where's the *gay* ??
8:15 The last word caught me off guard. Lol.
Spy do be pulling a Napoleon moment though fr
But also I feel like actually watching a new Meet The video like back in the day... So nostalgic.
Ah, what a classic. 14 years, that's crazy
12:05-12:15 I wish in one day, as a scout main, have abilities like that
Really outdone yourself this time man, you've instantly become one of my favourite tf2 channels in the past year or so
Wow thank you so much, that means a lot
Get that bread Shork
im so happy, we have an actual budget for meet the real sniper!! and i might not come home with $7 left to my name this time!! (true story)

Gentlemen, synchronize your subscription notifications.
I like this recreation a lot, but I do think it’s for the best that we got the more narrative version in the end. Awesome work on the video to all who worked on it!
Im surprised you didn't have the other mercs walk away, leaving spy in the Intel room. Having him smirk and take off his red spy disguise.
10:06 "Wow this man is very wise" is gold
7:30 this sfm is based as hell dude, awesome!
Dude, this is so cool that people actually have the motivation to make something like this. This game is half dead and neglected, yet fandom is still thriving. Props to Shork for reaching out and contributing, thank you.
Oohhhh man, fresh spy voice lines ripe for sentence mixing. Today is a good day.
I love how the community can get or create more content even years later. Amazing
I would LOVE to see medic saving scout on a chopper 😂 that looked so bad ass
Ok, this is a really good find for sure. And the recreation is really well animated, but I really doubt the tf2 team would animate this as Spy giving his own team a speech. That would be way to meet the heavy/engineer esque. I think it definitely would have had some action sequences that showcases his tools, and some kind of after promo scene at the end, like meet the sniper/scout. Like "the man can be whatever is man enough to be" is 100% a reference to his disguise kit, but more so a tease per say. The "warehouses (No n@ughty word, thx YT) are safer tonight for your absence" seems like it would follow a kill by the spy. The "alone any of you bad men could be the Ceaser of his local sewer" is definitely a reference to the 2fort sewer, my bet is he either kills an engineer or a demoman. He definitely killed 3 enemy mercs considering he is listing 6 traits: Flame retardancy (Pyro), Rage(?), Brains(?),Brawn(Heavy),Accuracy(Sniper), Speed(Scout). Him saying "disorder the natural state of nature is cheap to create" definitely would show the paranoia between the enemy mercs, and implies the enemy spy is as powerful as mother nature itself. "Nature abhors a team gentleman... we UNNATURAL brothers" is 100% a call to arms against the spy, and the final sentence is a promise that they are going to murder that "beach" spy.
I think what the likely structure was:
- Blue spy says "warehouses are safer tonight for your absence"
-- then it cuts to Red spy killing a drunk demoman with a backstab either silently using the invis watch, or loudly like the sniper and then using him as a disguise.
-Then Blue Spy says "alone any of you bad men could be the Ceaser of his local sewer".
-Cut to Engi hanging out inside the sewer with his toys, and the Red Spy fools the Engi with a drunk demoman act he saps his toys, and shoots Engi in the head.
-After that maybe Shork's recreation happened, but with a more disorganized paranoid blue team.
-The after promo scene would be a motivated Blu team leaving the intelligence room to hunt for Red Spy. But in actuality Red Spy pretended to be the Blu Spy during the entire speech, so he is able to take the intelligence and leave.
I think the likelier reason this version got canceled is, because and to quote the finalized short "It was obvious he is Red Spy".
Again it's super likely that this Spy is the Red Spy pretending to be the Blu Spy, considering:
-2 mercs are missing during this speech or monolog.
-Him naming the Pyro's strength as Flame retardancy is a backhanded compliment at best.
-And him comparing the enemy spy to mother nature sound more like he is the president of his fan club.
If you asked me Scout's mother really spiced up the final short.
What we got: (Showing off his skills)
What we wouldve gotten but didnt: *Wise*
01:42 Okay, this actually made me laugh
Feels like one of these Gmod videos, or the fanmade goofy TF2 vids in general lol
13:21 i like how they made the fact that scouts meet the vid having to be cut for time cannon to the in game interview
The animation starts at 7:03
I hope the Sandviches monologue gets discovered someday 😔
the scene where the Sniper is climbing the tower, you should film it like they did the wall climbing scenes for Adam Wests Batman.
Now I want to see plot based Meet the Heavy, Scout, Engineer, Soldier and Demoman
12:05 XD
"Wake up Gentlemen! Shork Just Uploaded!"
That speech goes hard as hell 🔥 it gave me chills man
the meme makers gonna be very happy about those voice lines
Yes.
The meet the spy we never got 💀 0:38
4:48 its not “the rest is history” what he said was, “the rest is his-tree”
8:25 Maybe the intro could be the team getting killed, then meeting at the intel room after respawning? Then the extra scenes could be highlights of the match?
I really want to see that Medic helicopter short fully animated now
The SFM animators gonna go crazy with these new lines
This "lost" version of meet the spy has just given me a new fond respect for the french man. The fact he gave such a speech to the team is honestly a nice take on his character
The work you do with the VAs is truly one of the best things for this community and its so great to see how the VAs still care after all this time
WOAH that sounds so good.. but it feels like thats the speech spy woudl give before starting a match :0 but thats cool
This feels like a speech that would've been given in the comics where spy encourages his team to fight Gray.
Wow! This was amazing to watch, the history and cut content of TF2 will always amaze me! #SaveTF2
Perhaps what we saw in the 2009 video “Meet the Spy” is a continuation of the 2007 video, but from the perspective of the blue team...
That Medic saving Scout animation would have been. Seeing what we could have had just makes me want more, even though i know we will never get more.
Love the content ShorK! Keep it up!
New stuff keeps gets discovered after 17 years. This game is truly a timeless masterpiece. Amazing work, amazing video. Thanks to everyone worked for this❤
After valve's abandonment, fanbase even started to make their own trailers😆
birb
New stuff could be found *much* later. In 2019 (unrelated to TF2,) there was a lost Betty Boop cartoon from 1938 that was unearthed in Russia. It's "Buzzy Boop at the Opera,"* not one of the most entertaining episodes IMHO, but it's nice to know it wasn't lost forever like a bunch of early media in the 1930s due to film and storage fires. I'm still disappointed at the huge 1937 Fox Films Fire, no doubt Pyro would have had a great day though.
* Buzzy Boop is Betty Boop's younger "helpful prankster" tomboy cousin, who only appeared in 2 episodes.
Ahhh this is fantastic! I love the details in the animation!! Like at 7:45 when the bottles on pyros chest bob when he moves ahhh so good!! Great job to the artist and composer on this
What a banger of a video, Shork! It's so interesting to see the original version of Meet the Spy, I feel like I just saw a brand new Meet the Team video! Amazing work by you and the team!! 👏
sniper, pyro, and soldier getting hit by a train really fucking sent me lmao
All of ShorK's videos go hard, I love learning about the history of random tf2 shit.
as soon as you said about making a video from this i was like OMG YES LETS GOO, we love dennis batemans spy performances xD
THIS IS AMAZING honestly i could see ALOT of things to do like show of the spy backstabbing and disguising to show of the "meet the spy" theme i REALLY want to see you guys do this with medic

oh yea i've already seen tophonator videos :0
Even though spy has been nerf for over 10 years now I still play him for the rush of doing a combo backstab and it’s worth it and it’s still my favorite class.

This Isnt Funny Anymore, Please Stop
SHUT UP
Do you hate spy
Did you not have already became real?
I love how Spy just skipped Medic in his speech, tragic (?)
The recreation looks and sounds like an official valve animation, insanely good!!
i think a really funny twist would be that when spy turns around at the end of his monologue, his whole team is dead and backstabbed by the blu spy

7:43 I died from laughter
This is so awesome!! While I think Valve made the right call with choosing the Meet the Spy narrative they ultimately went with, I love the lore that comes with this uncovered monologue.
You all forgot that it's unconfirmed for this monologue to be the original "meet the spy" video, it's just an audio recorded. Whatever that was meant to be used for is unknown. And sure, for it being the "meet the spy" is possible, but it's not confirmed. Shork just found this audio and thought that it was the "meet the spy" immidiatedly, that's not.... That's not just "oh so it is meet the spy then".
i literally say its couldve possibly been and i say its a theory in the outro haha
and the video explains why i think it could be a possibility, and also why i think they would not have used it anyway'
did you even watch the video, its all me speculating how and why it could be related lol
