Incidentals

by Kathy Knudsen1

Every episode has both major and minor characters and sometimes there is more to a minor character than meets the eye. Each Chapter will be about one such character. Not all chapters will fall in the same order as the series episodes, and likely one or two episodes will be skipped over (i.e. Return to Devil's Hole because I never watch that one).

Boy (From What Happened at the XST)

(The boy in this episode is the same boy who earlier played the role of Tommy Tapscott)

Those two strangers sure did seem familiar, but I just can't place em. Don't matter, really. The important thing is that I earned fifty cents just for running across the street and asking the hotel clerk if some old man had arrived yet. That's a pretty hefty sum of money for something that didn't take even five minutes.

That hotel clerk seemed kind of outta sorts with me asking him if some old man had checked in, and seemed even more outta sorts that them two fellas weren't brave enough to come asking for themselves.
