- Someone get me a kleenex...
-
- **I THINK I'M IN LOVE!!!!**
-
-
- .. Ahhhhh, Melanie! The very name brings a sigh to my lips, a spring to my
- step, and yes, MERCIFUL, a song to my heart. (Gosh, I love it when the
- innocents get jumpy!)
-
-
- -- Hey, stop that! You can't do that. That's not nice....
-
-
- Kinda like looking at a car crash, though, isn't it, Mel? Makes you feel so
- bad, for those poor mangled corpses, but it kind of excites you, too -- don't
- it? Come on, you can tell me... I'm really very nice, not like the others
- here. I want you to feel good. I want to make you happy. Take my hand,
- dearest one.

- "Let's go up to the lab,
-
- We can see what's on the slab,
-
- I can almost feel the an-tic-i-pa..

- --tion"
-
-
- You know you like what you see... Wouldn't you leave if you didn't? Look into
- yourself... Deep inside... Deeper...
-
-
- Now, take a warm bath. Let me towel you off. There. Do you want a cookie?
- Ok, let's get you tucked into bed... Where's your favorite book? Feel better
- now, Melanie? Ok, you can turn off the light now... Sweet dreams.

- infamous FNORD-L Bunker.]

- FNORDIANS, please, you need to go easier on Melanie. I tell you, she's a peach
- -- a real, honest to goodness peach! I don't care what you all think, I want to
- keep her... I need someone to dress up and take shopping. Someone to
- indoctrinate into my next order... She's a blank slate and she doesn't even
- realise it!
-
- Now, as for Foss, I wandered into a joint uptown and caught some of his act a
- couple weeks ago... Same old song and dance, but the crowd just doesn't
- appreciate it. It's rather sad... But, then I think he likes the torture of
- hoping to be understood by those he wants to misunderstand him. There's never
- any real threatening judgement involved...
