Chapter 19.....and we are back from Mexico.....you know we should write down some of the things
we did in Mexico....I believe we came up with some pretty good stuff. For example, Cassi on the
ladder, painting up toward the ceiling. (15 ft off the floor, literally hanging from the rafters to keep
my balance) --to Phyllis who was painting below her-- "Ill tell you if I drop the paint or something
but I'm not saying anything if I fall off the ladder, because I may need you to break my fall."
Cassi steps around Pastor Ray Pile, who's laying in the doorway, seemingly dead. "I was going
to step on you, but I thought better of it." Ray: "Well I appreciate that."
And the war on TV! Cassi sits on the couch, bored, watching TV with Elyanna, who is flipping
channels. (Elyanna our friend in Mexico) She puts it on an english station. After about 15
minutes, they start repeating themselves, and we're both bored again. Cassi: "No mas." [no
more] motions for Elyanna to change the station. The war is on EVERY station she flips through.
Cassi: (groaning)Ugh!..mas, y mas, y mas [more and more and more....] Suddenly she brightens
up and points at the screen. "Oooh! Cheeseburger!" Phyllis: Now I KNOW you're bored when
you get THIS excited about a cheeseburger commercial." Everyone busts out laughing...
including Ramon and Elyanna, and their cousin, who just happened to be there, too. Then we
went and got Sven's photo album and looked through that for an hour.
Okay, more tales of Mexico to come. For now, I'll see if I can't start the new chapter.
about 15 minutes later, my lortab has kicked in, as I'm still having trouble from the work in Mexico
and the climate change coming back.....the trip was worth any pain I went through for the record.
I LOVE that town and those people, and hopefully, there will be a return trip come June. It's
been suggested I go as a chaperone for the girls of the youth group as Kathy is unable to make
it...as I'm 25 and have made the trip 5 times before and actually speak some Spanish. I'm hoping
to be able to do this...apart from the heat in June, it would be nice to go for my birthday, and the
birthdays of Ramon and Elyanna who are almost at the same time...in fact, Ramon and I share a
birthday and Elyanna's is three days before it. And she's fifteen this year. (Like sweet 16 for
americans.) Anyhow...on with the insanity...Previously in the spoofs (Lost World) Penny
announced she was pregnant at the end. For the record, Penny Parker of MacGyver married
Jonathan Carnahan of the Mummy in James of the Jungle (the same time Glory married Imhotep)
Penny and Jonathan starred in Batman the spoof and became an item shortly after. Now.....we
have a delivery to come in!!! ^_^
*************************************************************************
In the Gunmen's van, Penny sat between Jonathan and Frohike, who had not been willing to
join the game. Penny, herself, had wanted to join, but given her condition, Mahk had advised
against it. She was in her ninth month and had been having a few contractions lately. She and
Jonathan had been late to join the fun, and though it was pretty funny to watch the doctors have
their fun, she was not enjoying it as much as she'd liked to.
"Are you alright, darling?" Jonathan asked, concerned.
Penny winced as another pain came. "I don't feel too good." She confessed, then doubled over,
as the pain became more severe.
"Penny?" Greene cut in, as he moved over, toward her.
Penny kept her eyes closed until the pain faded. "I think my water just broke." She managed to
get out.
"Oh boy." Jonathan moaned.
"I think you need to get her into the hospital now." Greene told him, then looked at Imhotep.
"Why don't you help him?"
Imhotep nodded, and picked Penny up while Jonathan opened the door to the van. "Call Rick
and Evy." Jonathan ordered Frohike.
Frohike nodded and grabbed the phone. "Good luck!" He told them.
Greene smiled. "I want details later on!"
Jonathan grinned and nodded, then the three of them headed for the doors of the Emergency
Room.
*************************************************************************
In the ER, Weaver was still staring at the self proclaimed Chief of Staff, whose name, she had no
idea of. "How did she even get in here?" She asked Chuny.
The nurse shook her head. "I have no idea."
"I think she was one of the delivery people with the food." Lily remarked. "Tall, punk hair, half
naked....then again, I can't tell about her hair now. It just looks like the same one."
"Black and white hair." Weaver replied. "She was in Romano's office a few minutes ago....said
she was his daughter, but they still didn't know who her mother was."
Lily and Chuny stared at her.
"Now that one's good." Lily retorted.
"I don't care how good it was." Weaver spat out, shaking her head. "I'd like to know what she's
doing here. It's plainly obvious she's not even a doctor."
Suddenly, from the door, a panicked voice cut through the din. "Can we get some help over
here?" An English accented man shouted.
All turned to see two men helping a very pregnant woman in. The woman was young, and
obviously in pain.
Weaver rushed over, grabbing a wheelchair and helping her into it. "How long have you been
having pain?" She asked.
"Um, I think about a couple days now...but they weren't really bad until just a few minutes ago."
She answered.
"She says her water broke, too." The English man put in.
"Penny!" The Romano-clone put in, striding over. "How's it going? You don't look so good."
"You know this woman?" Weaver asked.
"No, I just was bored and decided to pretend I did." She retorted. "I was there when they got
married, okay?"
"And which one is the husband?" Weaver asked.
Jonathan raised his hand. "That would be me."
"Come with me." Weaver ordered, pushing the wheelchair. "Someone call OB now!"
"Thanks for helping." Jonathan remarked to Imhotep as he followed Weaver away.
Imhotep grinned and made a salute. "Tell Glory where I am!" He called back. "I believe she's
already up there somewhere."
Jonathan nodded before he disappeared around the corner.
"Do Rick and Evy know?" Cassi asked Imhotep.
"Frohike was calling them." Imhotep answered. "They should be here soon.....so I should go
wait elsewhere. Tell Glory I'll be over with Hannibal Lecter."
Cassi nodded. "Not a problem."
**************************************************************************
Meanwhile, in OB, Dave and Kovac were sitting in the breakroom, tied to chairs with Glory, Jing-
Mei, and Buffy keeping careful watch on them. Every so often one of the nurses would come
in and snap off another picture or two.
Dave sighed. "You know, this is boring." He spoke up.
"Did you hear something?" Glory remarked to Buffy.
"Nope." Buffy answered, playing with a wooden stake.
Jing-Mei looked up from her book. "Didn't we tell you prisoners weren't allowed to talk?" She
told him.
Dave rolled his eyes. "Come on, Chen! What did I ever do to you?"
Chen burst out laughing. "Well, let me think....I seem to remember a lot of things you said to me."
She retorted.
"But I never meant them in a bad way!" He shot out. At her "Yeah Right" look, he sighed.
"Really! I always meant to be respectful."
Jing Mei laughed harder. "That's a good one!" She answered between fits of laughter.
Dave's face turned to a pout. "Okay, so I came off a little disrespectful." He muttered. "That
doesn't mean I deserve to be tied to a chair."
"To tell you the truth, Dave, I think it's rather funny seeing you like this." Jing Mei confessed.
"It's actually entertaining."
"And what did you do to your hair?" Dave cut in, changing the subject.
Jing Mei grinned and changed it from blue to red. "My talent." She answered, laughing. "Like
it?"
Dave stared. "Um....well, it's....different."
"You don't like it." She retorted.
"What other colors do you do?" Dave asked.
Jing Mei grinned. "All colors."
Kovac tilted his head. "Green?" He asked.
"Easy." She answered. "Try something harder."
Dave was busy staring at the wall behind Chen. "Wow....did you just do that, Kovac?"
"Huh?" Jing Mei cut in, turning to see the wall had turned green. "Woah.....do it again."
Kovac frowned. "Blue." He mused, as the cabinets changed blue. "Hey, look what I can do!"
"That is so cool." Dave remarked. "I wonder what I can do."
They were interrupted as Abby-Anya came running in. "You guys, GUESS WHAT!!" She cried.
"Who are you?" Dave asked, staring.
"That's Abby.....only she's Anya now." Jing-Mei answered.
"Chameleon." Kovac remarked, as if it were obvious.
"Oh right." Dave answered, with a nod.
Abby-Anya rolled her eyes. "Guys, I'm trying to tell you something!" She shot out.
"What?" Buffy and Glory asked in unison.
"It's Penny!" Abby-Anya informed them, excitedly. "She's having her baby!"
Glory leapt up, and ran out of the room. **She and Penny are best friends.**
"Oh wow!" Jing Mei answered, grinning. "When did this happen?"
"They just brought her in now!" Abby-Anya told her.
"Cool." Dave remarked. "Is Jonathan in there?"
"Yes." Answered Susan from the doorway. "And several of the girls have already taken to
mobbing them."
*************************************************************************
Amongst the people who came to see Penny, were Romano and Elizabeth. The pair hung back,
not wanting to be seen by anyone on the girls' team.
Elizabeth shook her head. "Doesn't seem like I've been gone that long." She murmured.
Romano nodded. "I had a feeling this was coming soon." He answered. "I've been watching her,
and she looked pretty uncomfortable yesterday. Couldn't say much for before that....I was a
little stoned for a while."
Elizabeth turned to stare at him, then grinned evily as she realized what he meant. "So who shot
you up on morphine?" She asked in a teasing tone.
Romano rolled his eyes. "Carter.....and Imhotep." He answered. "Let's just say I was VERY
stoned."
"What a shame I missed it." Elizabeth said, laughing. "I'll have to see the video."
"It wasn't much to see." Robert told her, defensively. "I spent a couple of hours counting dots
on the ceiling, staring at a bug, and watching my hands move."
"And he shot Spiderman for saying it was a clump of mud and not a bug." Sven spoke up from
behind them. "It was really funny." **Jurassic Spoof III, not out yet.**
Elizabeth shook her head. "Now that, I believe." She retorted, laughing harder.
Robert shook his head. "Yeah, okay, very funny. How's Penny?" He asked, changing the
subject.
"I'd be more worried about Jonathan." Sven retorted, laughing. "Penny seems to be dealing with
it better than he is."
Romano nodded. "Right. Get Glory in there....she can catch him when he faints." He suggested.
"I think she's already getting Yves to turn her back." Sven informed them. "Penny wants her
with her.....assumingly for that reason."
*************************************************************************
Much to the surprise of everyone downstairs, almost the whole hospital was asking about the
woman, Penny. At least the people who were in the waiting area of the ER. It seemed that every-
one there knew her, and several claimed to be good friends with her. This was why Chuny, Lily,
and Weaver had no idea who was actually related to the woman.
"Her husband is my wife's brother!" A guy who looked and sounded like Brandon Frasier cried
when they refused to let him in.
Weaver sighed. "Right, and he's her brother." She remarked, pointing at MacGyver. "Join the
club."
Rick rolled his eyes. "Imhotep! HEY! Get over here and tell them we're related!" He shouted.
Imhotep walked over and stared at Rick as if he were a bug. "We are NOT related!" He spat out.
Rick rolled his eyes. "Not to YOU! I mean to Jonathan!" He snapped. "Frohike called us!
Jonathan told us to come!"
"Actually, point of fact, you probably ARE related." Cassi put in. "You're all part of the Summers
Clan, thanks to Penny and Glory being cousins."
"Right, whatever." Rick stated, with a nod. "So how do we get in to see Penny?"
Cassi looked at Weaver. "Jonathan is Evelyn's brother." She told her, pulling Evy forward.
"Evelyn is Rick's wife. Point of fact that they are in fact REAL realitives, not the fake kind we
seem to generate. If you wanted to go by fake, then Penny's related to almost everyone in
this room. Let these two in, to see her, or you're FIRED!"
Weaver stared up at Cassi. "Excuse me, but whether or not you act like Romano is beside the
point. The point is that you are NOT Romano, and you are not in charge here." She retorted
with a challenging tone.
Cassi narrowed her eyes and stared the Evil woman down. "Yes, that's true.....but then YOU
aren't Romano EITHER! So why should I listen to you!?" She shot back.
"Okay, I think you've had your fun." Donald Anspaugh remarked, walking up to Cassi. "I am
currently in charge of this hospital, and you are NOT the Chief of Staff, and you have no
authority here whatsoever."
Cassi gave an evil grin. "Is that so?" She mused, pretending to consider this. "Well, you might
be interested to know a few things."
"Like what?" Anspaugh demanded.
Cassi smiled widely. "Welcome to the Twilight Zone. You have no control here at all, pal." She
informed him. "Look around. Your security has been changed into frogs and our security EATS
people like you." She turned to Rick and Evy. "Get upstairs to OB, and take Alex with you. I'm
sure Penny and Jonathan are looking for you."
As the couple and their son took off up the stairs, Anspaugh and Kerry were staring down
Cassi....or trying to.
Cassi grinned. "Dor...my wonderful med student."
"Yeah?" Dor replied, stepping up behind her.
"Show Nazi Dyke and the Evil One why you're King of Xanth." Cassi ordered.
Dor grinned, and looked at Kerry's white coat. "What is this woman planning to do?" He asked.
"She's going to take over the Chief of Staff position." The coat answered. "She want's Romano
to leave and never come back, and she hates him, and she thinks that by sucking up to some
Alderman guy, she can have anything she wants."
"I KNEW it!" Cried a young voice, as Romano charged in. "You really ARE the most EVIL being
in the world, aren't you!?"
Elizabeth stepped up behind Romano, trying to pull him out of the middle of the crowd. "Robert,
not now."
"Rob, now's not a good time." Cassi remarked, pulling the five year old back. "Go....trash the
scrub room and beat up Babcock again or something."
Robert stuck his lip out and crossed his arms. "No, actually, I'd rather blow Kerry all over the ER
and let the Compys eat her miserable little pieces." He muttered.
Weaver and Donald simply stared openmouthed at Romano, as if they could not believe that
had just come out of his mouth.
Cassi looked down at him a minute, then back at Dor. "These five year olds...they're so violent
these days. So young so angry.....darn that rap music!" **Yes, it's from Dr. Doolittle2, but it just
sounded so GOOD!**
Elizabeth burst out laughing.
Romano appeared to be thinking about this. "I don't listen to rap music, Cas." He retorted.
"Oh right. You listened to Carter and Ardeth....sorry, I forgot." Cassi answered, correcting her-
self.
Romano nodded. "And Murdoc...and Ryan....and Wolvie....and the Evil Trio....and Blue...."
"We GET THE POINT." Cassi and Dor stated in unison.
"Not to mention you people." Romano finished.
"Right." Cassi said, rolling her eyes. "If you be a good little boy and go destroy something
nice and expensive, I promise I'll let you blow up anyone you want when you grow up. Okay?"
"You promise?" Romano asked, giving little Bambi eyes.
"I promise...now go play." Cassi told him.
"Kay, bye." He answered, pulling Lizzie away.
Kerry and Anspaugh just stared after the two, as if they had come from the moon.
Cassi grinned and shrugged. "Kids." She mused, shaking her head. "You just never know what
they're gonna say next. Back to work people! This is a workplace, not a parade!"

And the moral?
Remember children...in the words of Pastor Ray..."If you fall out of that tree and break both
your legs, don't come running to me..." Sigh...I love my pastor.

End part 19.
More to come!!!! What will the baby be? No telling, Becca! More of all characters to come, as
well as Dave's talent to come out....oh yeah...and Abby has to be Abby again.
we did in Mexico....I believe we came up with some pretty good stuff. For example, Cassi on the
ladder, painting up toward the ceiling. (15 ft off the floor, literally hanging from the rafters to keep
my balance) --to Phyllis who was painting below her-- "Ill tell you if I drop the paint or something
but I'm not saying anything if I fall off the ladder, because I may need you to break my fall."
Cassi steps around Pastor Ray Pile, who's laying in the doorway, seemingly dead. "I was going
to step on you, but I thought better of it." Ray: "Well I appreciate that."
And the war on TV! Cassi sits on the couch, bored, watching TV with Elyanna, who is flipping
channels. (Elyanna our friend in Mexico) She puts it on an english station. After about 15
minutes, they start repeating themselves, and we're both bored again. Cassi: "No mas." [no
more] motions for Elyanna to change the station. The war is on EVERY station she flips through.
Cassi: (groaning)Ugh!..mas, y mas, y mas [more and more and more....] Suddenly she brightens
up and points at the screen. "Oooh! Cheeseburger!" Phyllis: Now I KNOW you're bored when
you get THIS excited about a cheeseburger commercial." Everyone busts out laughing...
including Ramon and Elyanna, and their cousin, who just happened to be there, too. Then we
went and got Sven's photo album and looked through that for an hour.
Okay, more tales of Mexico to come. For now, I'll see if I can't start the new chapter.
about 15 minutes later, my lortab has kicked in, as I'm still having trouble from the work in Mexico
and the climate change coming back.....the trip was worth any pain I went through for the record.
I LOVE that town and those people, and hopefully, there will be a return trip come June. It's
been suggested I go as a chaperone for the girls of the youth group as Kathy is unable to make
it...as I'm 25 and have made the trip 5 times before and actually speak some Spanish. I'm hoping
to be able to do this...apart from the heat in June, it would be nice to go for my birthday, and the
birthdays of Ramon and Elyanna who are almost at the same time...in fact, Ramon and I share a
birthday and Elyanna's is three days before it. And she's fifteen this year. (Like sweet 16 for

*************************************************************************
In the Gunmen's van, Penny sat between Jonathan and Frohike, who had not been willing to
join the game. Penny, herself, had wanted to join, but given her condition, Mahk had advised
against it. She was in her ninth month and had been having a few contractions lately. She and
Jonathan had been late to join the fun, and though it was pretty funny to watch the doctors have
their fun, she was not enjoying it as much as she'd liked to.

"She's going to take over the Chief of Staff position." The coat answered. "She want's Romano
to leave and never come back, and she hates him, and she thinks that by sucking up to some
Alderman guy, she can have anything she wants."
"I KNEW it!" Cried a young voice, as Romano charged in. "You really ARE the most EVIL being
in the world, aren't you!?"
Elizabeth stepped up behind Romano, trying to pull him out of the middle of the crowd. "Robert,
not now."
"Rob, now's not a good time." Cassi remarked, pulling the five year old back. "Go....trash the
scrub room and beat up Babcock again or something."
Robert stuck his lip out and crossed his arms. "No, actually, I'd rather blow Kerry all over the ER
and let the Compys eat her miserable little pieces." He muttered.
Weaver and Donald simply stared openmouthed at Romano, as if they could not believe that
had just come out of his mouth.
Cassi looked down at him a minute, then back at Dor. "These five year olds...they're so violent
these days. So young so angry.....darn that rap music!" **Yes, it's from Dr. Doolittle2, but it just
sounded so GOOD!**
Elizabeth burst out laughing.
Romano appeared to be thinking about this. "I don't listen to rap music, Cas." He retorted.
"Oh right. You listened to Carter and Ardeth....sorry, I forgot." Cassi answered, correcting her-
self.
Romano nodded. "And Murdoc...and Ryan....and Wolvie....and the Evil Trio....and Blue...."
"We GET THE POINT." Cassi and Dor stated in unison.
"Not to mention you people." Romano finished.
"Right." Cassi said, rolling her eyes. "If you be a good little boy and go destroy something
nice and expensive, I promise I'll let you blow up anyone you want when you grow up. Okay?"
"You promise?" Romano asked, giving little Bambi eyes.
"I promise...now go play." Cassi told him.
"Kay, bye." He answered, pulling Lizzie away.
Kerry and Anspaugh just stared after the two, as if they had come from the moon.
Cassi grinned and shrugged. "Kids." She mused, shaking her head. "You just never know what
they're gonna say next. Back to work people! This is a workplace, not a parade!"

And the moral?
Remember children...in the words of Pastor Ray..."If you fall out of that tree and break both
your legs, don't come running to me..." Sigh...I love my pastor.
