- Well, it doesn't look like I need to make the trip after all. With all
- those offers to share your shower I'm sure I won't be missed anyway.

-
- Don't worry. It sounds like you'll be kept well occupied.

- Oh. (with disappointment) So you aren't spacially transcendental? I guess

-
- This must mean you don't have minions of your own either, do you?

-
- Well, it's not quite so esoteric as a Porsche. In fact, it's only a
- Corolla, but it's a STEALTH Corolla (AND it's paid for.)
-
- (Oh, and it turned out that I didn't need a new alternator. It was just

-
- The Minions have voted to return your shower head so that you don't have to
- get out and meet people just so you can take a shower. I know you're
- relieved to hear that. (You ought to be more careful. You scared them,
- you know.)
-
- Anyway, they've decided to take something from the living room, instead.
