Chapter 7 – Now for "The Man"

The other WOOHP personnel load the seven henchmen on their copters; the gals and Stan have to get to WOOHP right away in the gal's copter/jet, to help Jerry!

While enroute, Clover says, "Stan, you continue to amaze! You were great in that fight with the henchmen!"

"I'll say he was!", says Sam.

"How can someone your age, still kick that high?", asks an impressed Alex "Not...not to say your old or anything!"

Stan laughs. "Every employee at WOOHP, from the janitor up to Jerry and myself have been field agents at some time; some for only one mission, others for years. And we each have a story as to why we aren't in the field now."

"Let's hear your story, Stan!", says Alex.

"Yeah, Stan!", says Clover.

"I'd bet it would be interesting!", says Sam, as they arrive at WOOHP.

"We don't have time now, but the next time you gals can't sleep, give me a call! I promise my story will have you sawing wood in two minutes!", defers Stan.

The gals land their WOOHP Jet copter in the hanger. They noticed a strange car in front of the building. That's probably Scam's. As they disembark, the rest of the WOOHP copters arrive. They can now all help Jerry!

"Why don't you gals go to the weapons locker, and I'll go to Jerry's office! Those should be the first two places Scam will hit!", says Stan.

"Ok, Stan!", says Sam.

Up in Jerry's office Tim Scam boldly walks in the door. Jerry looks up in amazement.

"Surprised to see me, Jerry? Yes! I have returned, and I am going to take over this building and use it as my fortress for ruling the world! All of the other WOOHP agents, including those pests of girls are dead! You're the last one, and I'm going to take you out myself! Well, what's the matter Jerry, cat got your tongue?", says Scam as he pulls out a laser pistol. "Well, it doesn't matter! Goodbye Jerry, and goodbye WOOHP!"

With that Scam shoots Jerry! But wait! Jerry disappears! Scam is startled. He rushes over to Jerry's desk only to find a hologram ring! Scam smashes the ring in anger.

"No matter, Jerry! You somehow knew I was coming! It doesn't matter! I can track you down like the dog you are, and finish you off!"

Scam figures Jerry would make a beeline for the weapons locker, so that's where Scam heads.

Just as Scam enters the surveillance room right outside of Jerry's office, he sees Jerry right in front of him, by the door to the weapons locker.

"Now I have you, Jerry!", says Scam as he raises his laser pistol.

But Jerry doesn't move. Scam starts looking around. Obviously, Jerry is employing that hologram ring again. Fool me once, Jerry, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me, Scam thinks to himself.

As Scam starts to sweep left and right with his laser pistol, Jerry fires a stun dart at his hands, causing Scam to drop his weapon!

"Surprised, Tim? No I am not a hologram this time, but I figured you'd think I was, if I didn't move!"

Scam laughs! "So you think by disarming me, you are safe? I also know Jerry that those stun dart guns are one shot! You have no weapons left either, and I can take you out with my hands." Scam starts to move toward Jerry.

But all of the sudden, the door behind Jerry swings open! Armed WOOHP agents enter the room – they got back in time for the capture.

Scam looks in horror! "This can't be! YOU'RE ALL DEAD!" But he quickly realizes they are not. Thinking fast, Scam tosses a smoke bomb onto the floor, as he dons his nightvision glasses. He turns around to run back through Jerry's office so he can escape in his car. The only problem is, the path is blocked.

"Going somewhere, Timmy?", asks Stan, who is also wearing nightvision glasses.

"Who ARE you?" says a startled Scam.

"Timmy! You don't remember Stan?"

Tim Scam's eyes widen in horror. He says almost inaudibly "Not...Ed's Stan!"

"Yes, Timmy. Back when you still worked here, I was 'Ed's Stan'."

"NOOOOO!" screams Scam as he now runs to his right, the only exit left. He looks behind himself to see if Stan is following him, when he realizes that this path also is blocked.

"IT CAN'T BE!", screams a frightened Scam, as he is face to face with Clover, Sam and Alex. "YOU'RE DEAD! YOU DROWNED! THERE WAS NO WAY FOR YOU TO GET OUT OF THOSE CHAIRS!"

"Well, if we are ghosts, Scam, this shouldn't hurt!", says Clover as she nails him in the side with a side kick, knocking the breath out of him.

"Nor will this!", says Sam as she kicks his midsection with a solid frontal kick, doubling him over.

"Or this!", says Alex as she knocks him out with a roundhouse kick. Jerry then puts the cuffs on Scam, after removing all of his gadgets.

As Scam comes to, he looks at the girls, and says "How? How? It was impossib...wait......Stan! I didn't account for Stan!"

"You called, Timmy?" says Stan.

"Stay away from me! Stay away! I remember Ed!!" screams Scam as he is led away.

"Stan, whose Ed?", asks Clover.

"Oh, just someone who use to work with me here.", says Stan. The gals could swear that Stan wiped a tear from his eye.

"Is something wrong, Stan?", asks a concerned Alex.

"Oh, no! Just removing a dust particle from my eye! I must have picked it up from that smoke grenade Scam used."

The gals accept the explanation. Maybe they thought they saw a tear. I could easily have been eye irritation.
