"Hey, Beyond! Get in here!" a high voiced, much more confident than last episode, Samantha Birthday called. She was laying on a futon-style bed, wearing an ensemble much like the one last episode… actually, it appears to be exactly the same outfit, unless she owns tons of exactly the same clothes, and, seeing who she's related to, that's really not all that surprising.

"We have letters! Er… a letter!" she adds, lifting herself up part way and twisting around so that her voice would carry further as she directs her head toward the doorway.

"Why is there no jam?" the reply is deep and nearly toneless.

"We do have jam!" Samantha calls back instantly, then pauses while her eyes widen before jumping up quickly. "And what are you doing in my kitchen? You're not supposed to be in there!" She adds, running through the doorway and off camera.

The room displayed on the camera is basically neat, other than the fact that there are empty or half-empty jam jars littered around as well as three or four computers and a couple books in different languages scattered around. Shouting is coming from the kitchen.

"You're not supposed to go into my kitchen, Beyond! You know that!"

"But… Beyond wanted jam… there was none in his room!"

"There's ALWAYS jam, somewhere around. The fact that one of the rooms is out doesn't give you right to go into MY kitchen!"

"But…"

"Listen, just ask me, okay?"

"… can I have some jam, Samantha?"

Ah heavy sigh.

"Yes, you can have jam, brother… IF you answer the letter we got first."

"Then Beyond will answer this letter. For jam."

"Thank you. Now come on."

Both enter, Samantha behind Beyond, apparently checking her kitchen for any signs of something not being as it should.

"Where is this letter?" Beyond asks, slouching over to a couch and clambering up onto it, pulling his knees to his chest and place his left hand atop his left knee and biting down lightly on his right thumbnail.

"Here, I'll read it" Samantha offered, flopping herself back down on the bed comfortably and spreading out a piece of paper before her. "Okay, it's from someone called Sekai-Kage…" she paused, thinking for a few seconds "Hmmm… do they mean to call themselves the shadow of the world or the shadow of society, I wonder…?"

"Just read the letter, Samantha." Beyond says, bored already. He has found one of the half-consumed jam jar and is quickly turning it into one of the empty ones with the aid of his fingers. His shirt, which was white when he came on screen, is now slightly red-stained.

"Right, here we go…" Samantha said, then cleared her throat and started to read, "'well this should be interesting' … do you think so? I hope so, I wouldn't want to bore anyone! 'Samantha-san, you seem pretty awesome.'" She pauses, blushing lightly, "Well, thanks so much, Sekai-Kage-san!
'Beyond-san, would you consider yourself slightly insane or just extremely
obsessed? I keep telling my friends that you're not a complete nutcase..'"

"Beyond is not a nutcase! Beyond does not eat nuts…" B murmured. Samantha rolled her eyes at that.

"Sekai-Kage-san means that you're not crazy."

"Oh, well, according to the psychological tests, Beyond is very sane." He responds matter of factly. "Of course, we were all taught to pass such tests at the House… As to if Beyond is insane or obsessive? Beyond is not insane. Ask the psychologists. And obsessive? Beyond is not obsessive, if Sekai-Kage-san wants obsessive, they should talk to Samantha, she sta –"

He is cut off by Samantha slapping over his mouth. "I did nothing of the sort! NOTHING! I deny all charges!" she declares. "Now… um… there's a bit more of the letter… 'nice work so far Kanki-san
thanks ^^'" She pauses, looking directly at the screen with a horrified look. "You're ENCOURAGING her! Don't do that! Kanki-chan is bad enough without people complimenting her! It'll go to her head! Imagine what she'll make Beyond and I do if you praise her to much!" she shudders. "Please don't encourage her, for my well being, I beg of you, please!" she opens her mouth to plead more but is silenced as a large jar of jam flies by and smacks her in the head, knocking her out.

"Samantha? Sister?" Beyond questions, reaching over and poking her twice. "She appears to have lost consciousness." He declares, then reaches further and grabs up the jam jar. There is a note attached.

'Dear Beyond-kun,

Please apologize to Samantha for me, as if my aim was anything like I planned, she'll be knocked out right now. Thanks for agreeing to answer the readers' letters for me! Lots of love, enjoy the jam!

- Kanki

P.S. Tell the readers they can praise me all they want. My ego still has room for growth!'

"Apparently it is from Kanki-san. She doesn't mind if you praise her. Now, if you do not mind, I have some jam to enjoy." He stands up and waves awkwardly before slouching off screen, leaving the camera rolling, pointed directly at Samantha's limp and unconscious form.

This view is kept for about half an hour, when a short girl with just-longer-than-shoulder-length brown, gold, red, and black hair runs on screen.

"Wow! Guess I really did a number on her!" she exclaims, looking at Neko. "Well, we'll be back with more answers to letters when she's come to and we've got more mail to answer. Thanks for watching my show. Kanki out!" she declares, reaching forward and pushing a button. A loud beep can be heard and the screen goes black.
