Just Plasma Bugs
Chapter Fifteen: "Cars and Hot-Tubs"

Narrator: "The next morning, Haruo pulled his lazy rear-end out of bed."

Haruo (enraged): "Hey watch your mouth. I'm not lazy...you arrogant mouthpiece."

Narrator: "Get a job. In any case, he was headed outside to head for the elixir shop again. This guy is really going to brass the tacks off the proprietor."

Haruo: "He said one consignment set every day...so I'm doing one consignment set every single day..."


Narrator: "At three in the morning?!!"

Haruo: "Yeah...so?"


Proprietor: "Oh...it's YOU again."

Haruo: "Might as well go to the bookstore and get a few things."

Narrator: "...and Bebe had some more plasma bugs to send to the science center."

Bebe: "Hey, Haruo, you are doing such a great job with the gardening...and with cooking too..."

Haruo: "Yeah...uh...thanks, I think...(suspicious) hey...you trying to butter me up?"

Bebe (innocently): "No...is it working?"

Bebe (sighs): "Back to irradiating more bugs."

River: "I hate this potion table, that's the sixty-ninth time it's tried to blow me up."

Bebe: "...and I presume it doesn't even have the courtesy to say thank you either..."

River (eyeing Bebe with one raised eyebrow): "Oh...shut up..."

Bebe: "Oh look, we can now finally afford cars...and Haruo finally built us a three-car garage."

River: "...and a hot tub too...oh, this is great..."

Bebe: "And you were the one complaining the most about having to do this challenge."

River: "Oh...shut up..."

Bebe: "Don't forget to thank Haruo for doing all this..."

River: "Oh...I'll thank him in a way he won't forget..."

Bebe (raises eyebrows): "Oh...really?"

River: "Oh...shut up!!!"

Haruo: "Of course, I need a truck...a big one - Gotta love my Dodge Ram 3500."

River: "Compensating?"

Haruo: "I didn't hear any complaints last night..."

Bebe (giggling her head off): "He got you there..."

River: "Oh...do shut up..."
