LYNN SMILES A WIDE, LAZY SMILE. "Eeeexcrelent." SHE SAYS.
YOU DIVE FOR JODIE THE GOOSE, AND CATCH HOLD OF HER TAIL FEATHERS, BUT SHE HONKS AND WIGGLES FREE.
JODIE THE GOOSE VANISHES THROUGH THE HOLE TO THE SOUTH.
ZOG LOOKS AT HIS WATCH. "Christ it's early. Late. Whatever."
]ENGAGE ZOG IN RAMPANT SPECULATION ABOUT OUTCOME OF GAME. MENTION "CRACKLES" AND UNTIMELY DISEMBOWELMENT.
ZOG'S EYES GET LOOPY IN HIS HEAD. HE SWAYS A LITTLE, THEN WHIPS A GIGANTIC SWORD OUT OF HIS SPORT-JACKET.
ZOG SAYS "Zoggah in the HIZZ OUSSSEE. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGHH!!"
ZOG DISEMBOWLS HIMSELF.
THE BLOODY SWORD CLATTERS TO THE FLOOR.
ZOG IS DEAD.
LYNN LAUGHS VERY LOUDLY, FOR TWENTY SECONDS AT LEAST, POINTING AND GRINNING AT ZOG AND THE EXPANDING POOL OF GORE BENEATH HIM.
](lol)QUICKLY CAPTURE ZOG PSYCHIC ESSENCE IN BATTERIES.
YOU SCRUB THE BATTERIES AROUND IN THE GORE, THOROUGHLY DIRTYING YOUR HAND. MAYBE THAT DID SOMETHING, MAYBE IT DIDN'T.
LYNN LAUGHS VERY HARD.
24-HOUR-DAVE ENTERS FROM THE SOUTHERN HOLE, HOLDING A DEAD GOOSE BY THE NECK.
]POWER CELL PHONE WITH BATTERIES, HAXXORING AS NEEDED.
YOU RIP THE BACK OFF THE CELPHONE AND GRIP THE BATTERIES AGAINST IT WITH YOUR HAND, AND POUND THE CONTRAPTION ON THE CEMENT FLOOR.
THE PHONE RINGS.
LYNN IS ROLLING ON THE FLOOR CLUTCHING HER SIDES WITH LAUGHTER.
]ANSWER PHONE, IMMEDIATELY HANG UP. SPEED DIAL BEANBAG-UNIVERSAL.
GAROTE SAYS "Hey, this is garote, I..." < CLICK >
A TECHIE SAYS "Hello! Beanbag Universal, distribution center! How may I serve you today?"
24-HOUR-DAVE SLAPS THE GOOSE RAPIDLY AGAINST THE CEMENT. "Guh, whap tenderize. STUDY SESSION."
]ORDER PERFECT REPLACEMENT BEANBAG, ULTRA RUSH DELIVERY BY GNOME SERVICE. SAY TO DAVE: "You realize that's Jodie there, doncha?"
A TECHIE SAYS "Thank you for your order. Where shall we ship it?"
DAVE LOOKS AT THE BLOODIED PULP OF A GOOSE IN HIS HAND.
"Fuck."
]GIVE CURRENT COORDINATES TO PHONE. SAY TO LYNN: "Mind teaching me that time-shifting trick?"
YOU SAY "12S, 14E."
A TECHIE SAYS "Thank you. We will ship immediately."
LYNN SITS UP AGAINST THE WALL AGAIN, AND SMILES AT YOU.
"It's not time shifting. I'm just swapping realities."
24-HOUR-DAVE HOLDS THE DEAD GOOSE OUT TO LYNN.
"My bad." HE SAYS.
]SAY TO LYNN: "Innnnteresting..." ADOPT SNUGGLY WUGGLY ATTITUDE. "Tell me more..."
LYNN LAUGHS. "Refocus your eyes."
TEN GNOMES CLAMBOR IN THROUGH THE NORTHEAST DOOR, CARRYING A HUGE WHITE BOX.
]SAY TO GNOMES: "Ahhh, excellent work. Put it right there, boys." TIP THE GNOMES WITH THE SNICKERS BAR. ASK LYNN TO CONTINUE.
THE GNOMES DROP THE BOX IN A CORNER OF THE ROOM AND CLIMB ALL OVER IT, RIPPING IT APART. THEY REVEAL A LARGE BEANBAG.
THE GNOMES LEAVE, TO THE NORTHEAST.
LYNN'S GREY EYES REFOCUS.
JODIE FOSTER IS KNEELING ON THE CARPET, HER SWEATSUIT COVERED IN GRASS STAINS.
"HONK, I er, um okay, what the HELL is GOING ON?"
24-HOUR-DAVE FAINTS.
](heh) SAY TO LYNN: "So, do you like light or dark meat?" EXAMINE TOOTHBRUSH.
LYNN SHAKES HER HEAD. "I don't follow you...? Deliberately."
THE TOOTHBRUSH IS MADE OUT OF PURPLE PLASTIC AND APPEARS WELL-USED.
JODIE FOSTER STANDS UP, AND BRUSHES HERSELF OFF.
JODIE FOSTER SAYS "I don't suppose either of you can send me back wherever I came from, before this? Honk? Maybe?"
]POINT BEHIND JODIE, SHOUT "Look! A whirling vortex!" TO LYNN: "There is no toothbrush. You mind only wraps the bacon around the shape of a toothbrush."
JODIE FOSTER TURNS AROUND. "I don't see..."
JODIE FOSTER TRIPS OVER 24-HOUR-DAVE, AND FALLS HEADFIRST INTO THE HOLE BURNED BY THE TYPEWRITER.
JODIE FOSTER VANISHES INTO A SWIRLING BLACK-AND-BLUE VORTEX.
LYNN LEAPS ONTO THE BEANBAG, AND LAUGHS. "The bacon! Heh. You're nice when you're not trying to kill me. That's a good thing."
24-HOUR-DAVE WAKES UP.
]SAY TO DAVE: "Hey, Jodie went away, sorry bro. I think some guys stole your thesis too, they were running back out to the garden." SAY TO LYNN: "R0x." EXUDE PHEROMONES.
24-HOUR-DAVE SCOWLS.
"Fuckers always me after me lucky thesis. Whatever. " HE SMACKS HIS LEATHER JACKET, AND SEVERAL XEROXED PAPERS FALL TO THE FLOOR.
HE NOTICES THE BLOODY SHREDDED CORPSE OF ZOG.
"Daaayum. STYLE."
PHEROMONE PRODUCTION AT FULL.
LYNN LEANS THE BACK OF HER HEAD ON ONE HAND, AND APPEARS TO SCRUTINIZE THE CEILING.
"So, where did you learn?"
]SAY TO DAVE: "Hey, would ya mind getting us some doughnuts?" SAY TO LYNN: "Oh, here and there. Mostly from Shunr'ryn T'ksla, in his fourth ascension."
24-HOUR-DAVE SALUTES, TURNS AROUND, AND TRIPS OVER THE HOLE IN THE SOUTHERN WALL. HE FALLS ON HIS FACE.
24-HOUR-DAVE IS FAST ASLEEP.
LYNN APPEARS TO BE SURROUNDED BY A SOFT YELLOW GLOW. "Wow. Good credentials. I learned on camping trips. Lots of camping trips."
THE ZOG CORPSE IS BEGINNING TO STINK.
THE PHONE RINGS
]SQUIRT SCREEN-CLEANING FLUID OVER ZOG CORPSE. SAY TO LYNN: "Scuse me a sec here," GRIN MANIACALLY. ANSWER PHONE.
THE SCREEN CLEANING FLUID SIZZLES ON THE CORPSE. THE ROOM IS PUNGENT WITH THE SMELL OF EVAPORATING ALCOHOL.
LYNN PULLS HER LEGS UNDER HER TO A HALF-LOTUS.
"Of course!"
LYNN GRINS BACK.
THE PHONE BEEPS IN YOU EAR. "Hey, uh, anyway. Yeah, this is Garote. I was gonna say, it's fucking late and I'm tired. But now I also need to ask you why the hell Jodie Foster is in my bathroom. Oh, and the RIAA is on the other line. Is that your doing, too?"
]SAY TO GROTE: "The hell? Who is this?! Jodie Foster? Deal with it bro. RIAA, I was out of town when that shit went down." HANG UP.
GAROTE STARTS LAUGHING VERY HARD, BUT YOU HANG UP ON HIM.
LYNN LOOKS AT YOU WITH HALF-LIDDED EYES.
"The world is coming to an end."
](dammit) CURSE GROTE FOR BEING SUCH A WUSS-ASS. GET MY SPIRITUAL MACK ON WITH LYNN.
YOU BEGIN TO APPROACH LYNN. SHE HOLDS UP HER HAND, PALM FORWARD.
AS YOU GET CLOSER, YOU FIND YOURSELF RELAXING INEXORABLY TOWARDS THE FLOOR. YOUR HEADACHE DISSOLVES. YOU ARE SLOWLY CRAWLING ON ALL FOURS.
YOUR BENT HEAD COMES TO A REST AGAINST THE FLAT OF LYNN'S HAND. LYNN'S EYES REFOCUS. THE WORLD ENDS.

]FUMBLE FOR PHONE. GROGGILY ANSWER.
"Hey, I know this sounds crazy, but this is Jodie Foster. I'm calling from some guy's house, I think his name is Garote. He told me you could explain everything."
]SAY TO JODIE: "Wazzut? Grodie? Uhhh... this isn't the fish factory, I think you got the wrong number."
"Oh great. This ... this sucks. Shit."
YOU HEAR A NOISE LIKE GAROTE READYING A GIGANTIC NET.
]SAY TO JODIE: "JODIE! LOOOOOOK OOOOOOOOOUUUUT!!!!" SCREAM INCOHERENTLY.
YOU HEAR A NOISE LIKE A PHONE BEING DROPPED.
YOU HEAR JODIE FOSTER YELLING "Oh come on, that's really just not--"
YOU HEAR THE SOUND OF FURNITURE BEING OVERTURNED.
THE LINE GOES DEAD.
