Any fool can use a computer. Many do. 
draw_status();
freeze(1)
fade_up();
unfreeze(1);
kill_this_task();

A screen change like this unfreezes Dink, so if the cutscene continues, add a freeze command (bold). If it doesn't, the unfreeze command (in italics) isn't needed.

Also, magicman - in the case of the freeze and unfreeze command, the semicolons are not required.. but it's a good habit to put them there because they're needed (almost) everywhere else

Edit: it's fill_screen(0); as you fill the screen with a colour and the parameter specifies the colour, 0/black in this case.
