The next day...
Everyone was busy in the Man Cave.
Ray was packing the diaper bag while Schwoz and Cheyenne were both getting ready for the funeral.
As everyone was getting ready, the elevator crashed and Henry and Jasper came into the Man Cave.
Joy and Aranea were getting their silk dresses on.
"Have you seen Nellie? I'm worried about Nellie." Aranea said as tears were filling in her eyes.
Joy placed a hand on Aranea's shoulder.
"Relax, Aranea. Nellie's with Dad. Geez, girl. What did you take last night? You're acting too upset today." Joy said, trying to calm Aranea down.
"I don't know what I took last night, Joy. I feel so upset." Aranea said, in a panicky tone.
Then, the sprocket door opened and Schwoz and Cheyenne came out, wearing their funeral clothes.
"Wow, Cheyenne. You look beautiful." Henry said as he hugged her.
"Thank you, Henry." Cheyenne said.
Then, Ray finished packing the diaper bag.
"You know, I feel like we're missing someone." Jasper said.
"Nah. Duh, Jasper." Cheyenne said.
Everyone looked over at Aranea, who was crying.
Ray then noticed who they were missing.
"Schwoz, hold Nellie for a second. I'll be right back." Ray said as he gave Nellie to Schwoz to hold.
Then, he went into the sprocket.
A few minutes later...
Ray emerged from the sprocket as Captain Man.
When he saw Aranea crying, he immediately went over to her.
He picked her up and started soothing her.
"Aranea, honey. Listen to me. It's going to be okay. I know you miss your mother really bad but, it's going to be okay. Just stick by me at the funeral and you'll be fine. After the funeral, we'll go out to eat. Would you like to do that, Aranea, honey?" Captain Man said as he was trying to calm Aranea down.
Aranea looked up at her Daddy and nodded her head yes.
Then, Nellie started crying.
"Hold on, Nellie, honey. Daddy's coming." Captain Man said as he gave Aranea one last reassuring hug.
Then, he went over to Nellie.
"Is everyone just about ready to go?" Captain Man asked as he was wrapping Nellie up in her pink baby blanket.
"Yes." Schwoz said.
"Sure am, Captain." Jasper said.
"Ready to get this funeral over with." Joy said, irritated and Gothic.
"Yes, Daddy." Cheyenne and Aranea said, together.
"Yes, Ray." Henry said.
"Well, good. Everyone, let's go." Captain Man said.
Then, everyone got into the elevator.
(Wow. So, everyone was busy getting ready for the funeral. Aranea seemed pretty upset. Will she breakdown at the funeral? I hope so. She can't hide that sadness in forever.
