Mindy gasped as she held onto Thomas. More rubble fell from the ceiling as they heard a rumbling sound.

"What's happening?" she asked.

Thomas shook his head. He had no idea. They jumped as they heard more rumbling.

"Carrie!" Mindy gasped. "I'm going to see if she's okay."

He nodded as she ran to Carrie's room. Thomas ran to the grill Drayton and Chop Top were to find concrete and a wooden beam laying in a giant pile.

"Tommy, you idiot!" Drayton yelled. "Get your ass over here! You fucked up again!"

Thomas flinched thinking he was going to get hit. What did he do?

"You fucked up again!" Chop Top repeated.

"Tommy, you home-wrecking fuck! You messed up again!"

Drayton pointed to the wooden beam lying in the pile.

"That's the main support beam!"

More rubble and stone came falling on top of the pile. Thomas leaned in to see if he could spot the problem.

"Fuck you idiots!" Drayton yelled. "If vultures had balls you'd both be…"

He and Chop Top watched as Thomas did nothing but lean toward the pile looking up at the ceiling.

"Look what your cousin's doing! You coonshit!"

Drayton kicked Thomas before running to the other side of the pile.

"You cut the main support beam and this is what happens! Of course this is what happens!"

Thomas looked at them confused. What was Drayton talking about? He didn't touch the support beams. He was shut up in his room all night. Chop Top jumped around giggling with Nubbins in his arms.

"More money lost", Drayton said. "I never…never get a break! Worst night in days! You pair of primadonnas fooling around here and listening to the radio all day…and sullied down your own house!"

Mindy calmly walked back toward them.

"I checked on Carrie", she said. "She's still asleep. Her room looks safe for now."

Thomas sighed relieved. Everyone jumped as they heard more rumbling. Drayton ran toward a pipe that hung in the back of the room where more rubble fell around it.

"Get that thing out of here!" he said. "Maybe it cracked the main construction."

Thomas grabbed the chain that held the pipe to the ceiling and started pulling.

"It's up there!" Drayton said pointing to the actual pipe instead of the chain. "Go look at it!"

He kicked Thomas again.

"Hey, leave him alone!" Mindy said. "You know what's wrong, you do it yourself."

"You shut up, bitch", Drayton said. "This is my place! It's his job to do what I tell him! Get out of my sight!"

He walked around to the other side of the pipe.

"Damn property taxes fuck up everything. Crooks don't pay taxes! Politicians don't! movie stars don't! it's the little guy that don't make a dime! He pays the taxes."

"Drayton, I don't care about who pays taxes and who doesn't!" Mindy said. "Right now you're not making any sense! Let's just get this fixed up and go back to our normal lives."

"It's junk!" Chop Top said. "Quit this cook show! Sell off this turkey! It's time. It's in the air. It's what the public wants!"

"Chop's right. You really ought to go ahead and sell this place."

"I don't want to hear that again!" Drayton said covering his ears.

"It's Nam-Land!" Chop Top said crazily jumping up and down.

Sparks came falling down from the ceiling as an electric cord was cut. This time everyone heard what sounded like a scream…a woman screaming.

"What the hell was that?" Chop Top asked.

He looked at Nubbins in his arms.

"I don't know what it means", he said making the corpse talk. "It was a big, big fireball!"

"No", Mindy said. "I could've sworn I heard someone scream."

Thomas looked at her nervously.

"Did you hear it?" she asked.

He shook his head trying to look innocent.

"That's the main construction up there!" Drayton said pointing up the pipe. "Go look at it. Get your butt moving, boy! Go up and look at it! Go look at it!"

Everyone froze as they saw someone running through the hideout.

"Did you see it?" Drayton asked.

Thomas and Mindy nodded. Thomas changed his mind and shook his head.

"Well, did you?" Drayton asked.

"Tommy, what do you mean no?" Mindy asked.

He changed his mind again and nodded this time.

"Didn't you?"

"Go check it out, boy! Go check it out before I kick your ass!"
