In the middle of Nowhere, we find a very familiar face approaching the farmhouse. It was a man who wore an all olive tuxedo with a purple tie and black boots carrying a very large suitcase. Glancing at his face we see a mess of blonde hair atop his head, as well as a pair of pink eyes look upon the readers, while sporting upon his face a permanent smile showing off his crooked teeth.
Approaching the farmhouse, he begins to narrate who he is.
Hello friends, my name is Fred.
The voices you hear, are in my head.
I am visiting my Aunt Muriel as you see.
With the feeling of happiness and glee.
For those want to know me.
Let's just say I'm very...Naughty.
Inside the farmhouse, Katy was polishing the stair railings while Madeline and Courage were organizing everything in the cupboard. Muriel walked in, carrying a fresh pie. "I really appreciate you girls helping me tidy up a bit, I'll bet ya both worked up quite an appetite." She then placed the homemade pie onto the small table beside her chair.
"Awesome, thanks grandma" Katy kindly responds, as she cuts a piece for herself and Madeline. As they eat, Katy asks her beloved grandma "So grandma, who's coming over to the farmhouse today? You still haven't told us."
Before she could answer however, a knock was heard at the door. Going to answer it, Muriel says "Oh that must be him now!" Opening the door it reveals to be Fred, who greets Muriel with a creepy smile as Muriel happily says "Fred! Good to see ya again lad. How have ya been?"
"Fine." He responds as he walks in. "Courage!" Fred says with a creepy grin on his face.
Courage was just about to get himself some pie when he heard his name and froze. Turning his head slowly in the direction voice came from, he got a good glance at the very man that tormented him in the past, standing outside the door. Courage ran and hid behind Madeline in fright.
At that moment, Gavin enters the room and approaches the doorway to greet his visiting relative, "Cousin Fred, I was wondering when you would show up."
Fred in a kind tone says "Same with you dear Cousin Gavin."
"Come inside. You must have gone through a lot of trouble just to get here." Gavin says escorting the blonde man inside, as Muriel closes the door behind them.
Gavin seats him on the purple couch where Katy is sitting, and introduces his daughters to him. "Now girls, I want you two to meet your Uncle Fred, he's going to be here with us for a bit."
The girls simply greet him with a hug and a hello, as Fred instead places his focus on Katy and started narrating again.
Ah and there she was, with hair long and pretty.
Which belonged to my beloved niece, Katy.
How I admire how she pulls it back so gently.
Away from her darling face, with her fingers I see.
Oh how I enjoyed it so simply.
I felt like approaching it and being...Naughty.
"Why don't ya sit tight Fred, while I go make us some tea." Muriel says to him, before she walks into the kitchen.
Gavin all the while calls Gina to come and meet Fred, to which we see Gina dressed in an Elizabethan era dress, come downstairs in an over the top manner.
"Oh can it be?" Gina starts "My long lost dear brother has returned? Oh how it's been so long!" rushing toward the unsuspecting relative, hugging him while she began to cry, much to Fred's confusion.
Gavin gently pulls Gina off of Fred and kindly says to his cousin "You'll have to excuse her, Fred. She just loves to try out her acting skills with us sometimes before she tries out."
"I admit, it's always nice to have an audience to practice on before my big performance." Gina replies.
Fred, maintaining his calm smile, says to her "Well, I must admit it was an amazing performance dear, may I ask what the occasion is?"
"I'm trying out for the lead role in the Nowhere Community Theatre production of Count Monty Gristle" answers Gina "Auditions are tonight, and I simply must attend."
Hearing this made Fred begin to think to himself, as he once again, narrates.
Ah the theatre, how I remember it quite well.
With each performance heard, in love I fell.
One that amazes me the most on set,
Was a performance long ago, of Romeo and Juliet.
The first time my eyes set on the Capulet,
The moment when she and Romeo first met,
What amazed me most about Juliet, with her skin so fair.
Was her ginormous, wavy, raven hair.
I decided to congratulate her personally.
Her performance made me weep with glee.
But afterwards, when I did, you see,
That's when I started getting...Naughty.
As Fred continues to remember his past, his family starts showing concern over his silence, noticing Fred look up at the ceiling while he daydreamed.
"Uh Fred?" Asks Gavin, "are you ok?" Only for Eustace walk in, and notice Fred in the room as Gavin says to the old man "Hey dad, look who came by to visit."
Eustace, in annoyance and unenthusiasm, walks over to the purple couch and sits beside Fred, who was busy staring at Katy as she was finishing up a slice of pie.
Courage, noticing the fascination Fred has for the teenager, becomes startled as he tries to get her attention and warn her of his intentions, sadly, Katy ignores him and instead, pulls out her iPhone to check for messages as Fred gently leans over to smell her hair in a subtle manner as he compliments it in his thoughts.
Ah that hair, that silky silk hair.
It amazes me so everytime I stare.
Oh how I wish to caress it in my fingers.
You would do the same too, if you were near her.
Muriel, returning with a tea tray, serves her family tea, before noticing Gina among them.
"Oh Gina dear, I would have thought Eustace would've brought you to your audition by now." says Muriel in concern.
"No worries, it doesn't start 'till tonight. I just needed a practice audience to see how I would do." Gina reassures her.
Eustace, after hearing this, abruptly gets up from his seat and says "Well your good enough for me. Come on, I'll start the truck."
But as he was about to step outside, Gavin intervenes. "Just a minute Pops. I think we all need to be there." he says, much to everyone's surprise.
"Oh, I must beg to differ, Cousin Gavin." Fred says, making everyone turn and look at him before continuing "I don't believe that the performance that your lovely wife is in is intended for those under eighteen, even if it's only an audition, might I recommend having the children stay here with me? I will be sure to watch them very carefully."
Despite Courage's protests, Gavin obliges to his offer saying "Well, that's really nice of you Fred. Thank you."
Fred simply replies with a hand over his heart and says "It would be my my pleasure." looking back at the children as well as a frightened Courage with a sinister grin.
Later that day, after Gina kisses the girls goodbye as well as saying goodbye to Fred, the girl's parents and their grandparents leave and head to town to get Gina to her audition.
With their family gone Fred seizes the chance at the victims.
As I glance at my darling family,
I'm reminded of another dear memory.
My sixth birthday to be exact.
My favorite day in fact.
The happiest day in my childhood.
I still remember it every time I could.
My first gift that day made me instantly flare.
It was my very own teddy bear.
A gift from mother I might say,
It's fur was a charming display.
Looking at the toy filled me with glee.
Even if I was a bit...Naughty.
Poor teddy...
Was now furless afterwards you see.
After the narration, plus the trip down memory lane, Fred sees Katy all alone on the couch on her phone. Madeline had taken Courage upstairs to play. Fred's chance had come at last for him to do what he always loved. He takes out a razor and slowly begins approaching the unsuspecting teenager.
"Hey what's the big idea!" Katy asks, outraged when he snatches the phone from her without warning.
Fred, with a smile on his face, answers "Now now my dear, I will hand you back your device after we take care of that silk you call hair." setting down the iPhone .
Back upstairs, Courage was now seen dressed in a really poofy, blue dress, with high heels and a tiara on his head. Madeline, standing next to him announces
"And now Lady Courage, your ready for the ball. All we need now is makeup." much to the cowardly dog's humiliation. As the little girl turns her back to Courage to find a makeup kit,
poor Courage couldn't help but worry what torture Fred has in store for Katy and her hair, that would surpass even his own experience with Fred. So without warning, he zooms back downstairs just before Madeline was about to apply powder on his face.
In the kitchen, Fred is forcing Katy's head over the sink in an attempt to get her hair wet before cutting it. When her hair was nice and wet, Fred pulls her out before he seats her on a chair and ties her to it, assuring her that everything would be fine when he got through with her.
Just then Fred he begins to describe more of his thoughts of his life.
Oh to see her hair, drip to the floor,
As I imagine it endlessly flowing more and more.
Oh how this reminds me of a time you would not believe.
In my shop came men who were enrolled in the marines.
For each soldier that walked in I gave
Each and every one an identical shave.
The exact same kind I intend to give to Katy.
Every inch I plan to shave from her head.
And that is a lot to be said.
But when I was doing it to each soldier who came in honestly.
They did not even mind the fact that I was...Naughty.
Courage running downstairs in concern, witnesses Fred preparing to give Katy a shave. He spots Katy's cellphone on the kitchen table. Watching the crazed barber carefully when he wasn't looking, Courage takes the phone and runs to the living room to try and call for help.
Unfortunately for the pink dog upon turning it on, what appeared on the screen where rows of apps that confused Courage to no end. He had never in his life seen an iPhone before, nor had he interacted with one.
"COURAGE!" Shouts a voice from upstairs who happened to be Madeline who appears on the top of the stairway saying "There you are!" Coming down the steps, she angrily asks "Just where have you been?" Then notices what's in Courage's paws. A bit shocked, but mostly confused by this, Madeline asks "Is that Katy's phone? What are you doing with it?"
Courage tries to warn her about Fred, unfortunately, Madeline simply takes it from him and says "Silly Courage, dogs don't need iPhones." before she goes to set it on the dining room table.
Tugging on both of his ears in frustration, Courage tries to look for a way to try and save the girls from this maniac when he gets an idea.
Meanwhile in the kitchen, as Fred begins to shear away the long hair Katy had, reducing it to a bob cut, Madeline was witnessing this in curiosity.
Fred looking at his work so far, begins to feel quite satisfied with the work he did on the girl. However, not completely.
And just when he was about to resume shaving more off, he hears something in the distance that sounded like an ambulance blaring, and decides to investigate. To his shock it was the authorities with his family who were worried out of their minds, wondering what this was about.
Then the chief of police steps out toward him and says "Alright Fred, these are the authorities, we have this whole farm surrounded, come quietly and we might go easy on you!"
With a shrug and a sigh Fred does as the officer told him and turns himself in.
Outside the farm, as the ambulance takes Fred away, his family, aside from Courage and Eustace, wave goodbye.
"What a guy, going to cut the hair of the criminally insane. It takes a lot of nerve." Gavin says.
"I sure am gonna miss dear Fred" Muriel adds, waving to him while holding Courage, as we hear Freds narration begin as he's being driven away.
As will I you, Aunt Muriel.
And to the rest of my family as well.
I will surely miss with all my heart.
But I shall still remember you as I depart.
I shall remember you all, my family.
Especially when I'm...Naughty.
Once he was gone, both parents and grandparents notice Katy's new look that Fred had just given her. Gina asks "Wow, did Fred do that to your hair?"
"Do you like it? Uncle Fred said he wanted to help improve it." Katy replies.
"Well, by the looks of it, I'd say it looks good on you." Gavin says with a smirk on his face, which causes an embarrassed Katy to replies "dad" as the whole family begin to laugh under the full moon.
