Episode: "The Dangerous Fall"
Show Introduction:
The story starts off at 5 A.M. with John Carter sound asleep in his bed at the Carter mansion. He was lying in bed asleep when all of a sudden he bolts straight up in bed covered in sweat and his hands trembling terribly, and then he gets this searing, burning sensation rising up his back, like his muscles and spine are on fire. Then he gets a very sharp jabbing pain in his lower left side of his back, feeling as if he is being stabbed with the large 6'' inch butcher knife by the psycho patient all over again. The pain is increasing more by the second, Carter tries to move but can't because of the pain and is paralyzed in the sitting position unable to move, but he still tries and regrets it right away as he cringes in agony, sweat dripping from his brow along with tears of pain swelling up in his eyes and sliding down his face, proving that this pain cannot be good. So Carter decides to sit until the pain isn't as bad before getting some Motrin to help the problem, a little while later the extreme burning sensation begins to subside and he tries to move slowly off the bed, his feet on the floor and then Carter gingerly shuffles across the room towards the doorway of the bathroom walking into the room heading to the sink, he opens the medicine cabinet gets cup of water and 2 extra strength Motrin of an amount that he normally wouldn't take, but does even though he knows that he shouldn't with his medication history. But now at this point he doesn't really care because the pain is enough for him not to care, and he feels like he's going to die from the torture. Slowly he shuffles again back to bed, half way there he almost collapses from the pain but then regains balance and makes it to the side of the bed. Carter carefully gets back in bed, pulls the covers over him and looks at the clock which reads that it's almost 6 A.M. and that a few minutes earlier at 5 A.M. was when he began his journey to get the pain medication to relieve his agony which he hopes by taking the as a stronger does is that it would kick in quickly so he can sleep for his shift at 9 A.M. While he was thinking this, the back pain slowly became a dull throbbing pain which made him relax a little until finally drifting to sleep.
