>ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN (and just might)
Tom: It's over! It's over!
<They exit the theater>
<Door sequence>
Tom: Oh, thank goodness that's over. What a nightmare!
Crow: Y'know, I think that was worse than "Cyborged."
Tom: I'd be inclined to agree with you, Crow.
Crow: Hey, wait. The Floras kid's parents died before she was even born.
Right?
Tom: Yeah...
Crow: So, if they died before she was born, she couldn't have been born,
right?
Tom: You mean...
Crow: Yep. This fanfic never happened. It's all a bad dream.
Mike: I dunno, Crow. I think you're reaching a little.
Crow: Oh, c'mon, Mike! Think about it. If Marrissa was never born, than
a good part of the plot of this fanfic -
Mike: Plot?
Crow: Okay, pseudo-plot. A good part of the fanfic couldn't have happened
without Marrissa, right?
Mike: Yeah...
Crow: In fact, Marrissa was *so* critical to the pseudo-plot that without
her the fanfic wouldn't exist, would it?
Mike: But -
Crow: But nothing! Mike, I'm telling you, this fanfic never happened.
Tom: Crow, I like your reasoning. Mike, just accept it. This fanfic
was nothing more than a dream, a bad dream.
Crow: A *very* bad dream.
Mike: Your logic's flawed, guys. You see - <light flashes> Hang on, Wally and the Beav
are calling. <he hits the button>
Dr. F: Well, Melville, how was the fanfic?
Crow: Fanfic?
Tom: What fanfic?
Dr. F: Don't try to play with my mind, lab rats. You know exactly what I mean.
Crow: We didn't get any fanfic.
Tom: <Shakes head adamantly>
Dr. F: But we know you got it! Frank, they got it, didn't they?
Frank: <wandering in from the right> Got what?
Dr. F: The fanfic!
Frank: Fanfic? What fanfic?
Dr. F: "Enterprized," by Stephen Ratliff.
Frank: Never heard of it.
Dr. F: Frank, it's bad enough with them doing this, but *you*?
Frank: What?
Dr. F: The fanfic, Frank.
Frank: What fanfic?
Dr. F: The fanfic we just - oh, never mind. <Turns back to camera, looks very confused> Ahem. Well, gentlemen, never mind. IUm going to go lie down for a while.
<wanders off>
<Back on the Satellite>
Crow: There, Mike, you see? It never happened. What more proof do you need?
Mike: I confess I'm at a loss for words.
<Deep 13>
Frank: Dr. Forrester, do you want your teddy bear?
Dr F: Yes, thank you, Frank. Oh, and would you push the button?
<Frank pushes the button. Zap to black.>
ZZZZZIIIIINNNNNGGGG!!!!!
Frank: Ooooh, thatUs so nice.
