Awakening
So much noise! Couldn't anyone be…Wait… There were four voices… Lee, Tina, Cam and… No! Not her! Not Brandy!
Basil opened his eyes. He was in a hospital room. He wasn't sure why he was wishing he were in a coffin. Must have been the amount of pain he was in.
Brandy was angry. Something about Lee cheating on her with Tina… Lee and Brandy were never a couple and would never be a couple! Brandy was as delusional as that silent film actress… What was her name? Lamont! Lina Lamont! Brandy was acting like Lina Lamont! Believing her co-star loved her when he loved someone else. It was tragic but Lamont was a delusional person. So was Brandy!
And then Cam kissed Brandy.
Basil didn't know what was going on. Why was Cam kissing Brandy? Was he in love with her? Why? How? Why was Cam kissing Brandy? Why? Why? WHY?
Actually, Brandy looked to be as surprised as Basil was. Even Lee and Tina were surprised by this!
Basil groaned and sat up. No one was surprised to see Basil up. They had seen his eyes open, they just weren't sure if he was all there. For all they knew, Basil could have ended up with a serious head injury.
"What hit me? A train?" Basil put a hand on his face. His face was bandaged. Why was his face bandaged? "What happened? Why am I suddenly thinking of Karloff in 'The Mummy?'"
Tina swallowed nervously. "Uh, Basil, we think Brad put a bomb in your car." That was quite the thought!
Brad putting a bomb into Basil's car? Well, everyone saw it coming. They just didn't know when it would happen.
Basil lied back onto the hospital bed. "Brad finally got me! Oh, to die like this!" Basil wasn't dying. He had just turned into a large ham. "Lee, Tina… I left something for you in my will. I leave you my cottage out in the country!"
"Basil, you're perfectly-" Lee was interrupted by Cam running over to Basil's side.
"No! Basil, don't die! You'll get through this, mi amigo!"
Incredible. Basil had Cam wrapped around his finger. Apparently, Brandy too since she went running over to his other side. How did this happen?
