Chapter 18
"Looks like an end for our heroes, what will they do? Find out next week on.." "SHUT UP FORD, THIS ISN'T A TV SHOW!" yelled Fenchurch.
Zaphod stepped forward. With his 2 heads and 3 arms he was a hunk. He beckoned to Fenchurch, "Come with me and I'll spare your friends."
Fenchurch took Zaphod up on this; she would die anyway, so why not? Zaphod grinned, "Okay, kill them all!" he instructed the politicians.
Arthur felt a pang of remorse as he watched Fenchurch leave to a certain death. He wanted to be the hero! "I'll save her!" he said to himself and killed all the politicians.
Ford (who had done nothing) rubbed his hands together and said in a menacing tone, "That's what you get when you mess with Ford Prefect."
Arthur, Ford and Wonko set off after Zaphod. It wasn't hard to follow his size 24 footprints. They followed them into a Starbucks, out of it and directly back to Islington.
Zaphod was leading Marvin and Fenchurch to where he knew Trillian's mummy was and where he could reincarnate her. Marvin roughly told Fenchurch to hurry up.
"You know Marvin," she said truthfully, "you really smell bad."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
Marvin sniffed his armpit quickly and had to agree with her, in fact, he almost fainted. What died in there?
Ford suddenly realized that the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was what Fenchurch was looking for all along. Maybe if he found this interesting book, it would kill the boring Zaphod. He asked Arthur where he could find the book.
Arthur responded, "Up your butt and around the corner." He obviously did not understand the importance of finding this book or thought that Ford was just drunk, which he probably was. Ford spent a half-hour looking for it there, only to discover that Arthur had been joking.
