Fri Nov 26 17:32:36 CST 1999

Janice is heading south in the stolen German vehicle.
Melinda "Janice are we almost there?"
Janice "No Pappa Smurf, er, I mean Mel we aren't."
Melinda shaking her head, Melinda looks over at Trent "How ya doin over there? I think we're almost to the town."
Janice swerves dodging a giant pothole in the road and backs up the truck to get a better look at it.
Trent "Oh I'll live, I won't be comfortable but I'll live."
Melinda almost falls outta her seat "My lord, what was that?"
Janice opens the door and hops out "Looks like a shell crater."
Helena coughs
Narrator You hear another thump. This time it comes from the roof of the truck
Melinda peaks out from the back of the truck to see if she can see Janice. "A what?"
Janice looks up, and draws her Gun, "Everyone stay put I'll handle this"
Melinda looks up "What on heavens sake is goin on?"
Narrator You see man fumbling in some fabric
Melinda gets back into the truck
Wanda is scared and hides in the truck
Janice trains her gun on him <"Name, rank and serial number?"> in German. <"Hey I’m talking to you!">
Charles scrambles out of the parachute "What’s that you say , cant understand a word of it."
Melinda tries to see what's goin on outside the truck.
Wanda grabs Mel’s arm "Are you crazy, stay inside"
Trent "If you need my help, just hollar. I won't come but at least you were kind enough to ask me."
Melinda hears a voice of a man but doesn't see him
Janice "Oh so your on our side."Janice hops up on the bonnet of the truck,
Melinda "Wanda dear I'm not crazy enough to actually go out there. I hope Janice doesn't do anything crazy and get herself hurt."
Charles Whichever side might that be walking towards her and falls off the truck
Wanda "me too"
Janice "And you are, incredibly lost."
Melinda yells from the back of the truck "Janice who is that?"
Wanda looks at Mel "where ze hell did zat man come from?"
Melinda shrugs to Wanda "Good question. And what was he doin on the roof of the truck?"
Janice watches the bumbling newcomer and hops off the truck and holsters her gun, sticking a hand out she mutters, "Great another looney"
Charles gets up off the ground dust him self off and continues towards Janice
Janice reaches to help him up
Melinda "Janice?"
Wanda is now not as scared and thinks to herself "ahh fresh meat"
Janice "Its okay Mel, its just a fly boy, he's lost his squad I think"
Charles takes her hand and places a kiss on it "Ah so charmed to met you"
Janice sneers "You got a name soldier?"
Melinda raises an eyebrow "A fly boy?" and make her way out the back of the truck to them.
Charles "Charles Igglesworth"
Wanda thinks as she looks the man up and down "well glad he droped by"
Janice "Hey there Chuck, I'm Janice and that's Mel, and over there is Wanda, oh and that’s Trent, and Helena, and Steel... Where’s smithers?"
Charles does a salute almost poking himself in the eye "So sorry to intrude like this"
Melinda "Smithers? Not sure."
Janice helps him gather the chute and starts piling it on Helena, "Hold that kid!"
Melinda is lookin at the roof of the truck now "What were ya doin on top of our truck?"
Charles "May I ask where we are?"
Helena falls backwards "Ummph!"
Melinda hides a giggle
Steel is speechless
Melinda extends her hand out to Charles. "Melinda Pappas, Mel for short. Nice ta meet ya."
Janice "Well Chuck, looks like you lost your way and drifted south, the real fighting is up north"
Wanda "Janice weren't we in ze hurry? What about ze Germans?"
Charles takes her hand kisses it "Charmed" thinks and looks around, "Germans? , were?"
Janice looks back at Wanda, "I'm getting there, okay everyone IN the truck!"(touch of that horse scream Renee does)
Charles looks off down the road
Melinda smiles "What a gentleman."
Janice "Germans are everywhere we are trying to get past them, we will figure out what to do with you later."
Wanda walks over and around Charles and runs her hand aross his back "ze names Wanda, ze calle me le fishy"
Melinda "Well now we can't just leave poor old Charles here for the gemans to get a hold of."
Janice swats Charles behind, "Get in the truck." shoos Mel back into the truck "Everyone"
Melinda locks arms with Charles and leads him to the back of the truck.
Wanda looks him up and down "oh no can't have zat"
Charles jumps at Wanda "Oh er , how nice to meet you"
Janice rolls her eyes, "Women"
Wanda smiles and heads back to the truck
Melinda tries to get back into the truck without gettin her heel stuck in the bumper again. "I heard that Janice."
Charles follows them into the truck
Trent "So does this mean we are gonna pick up every straggler here to Salonkia? Great, let me change my schedule then."
Charles grins at Trent
Melinda "Oh Trent now stop that. We couldn't just leave Charles there now could we?"
Janice looks back to make sure everyone is in and chuckles watching Helena wrestle with the silk.
Charles looks up "You should really fix those dents"
Melinda "Janice, we're all ready to go back here."
Trent smiles at Mel mimicking her, "Oh no of course not, leave a soldier to fight a war... My god what was I thinking!"
Melinda to Charles "No not really. It's not really our truck anyway." and holds back a giggle.
Janice lurches the big German truck forward "I hope the allies don’t shoot us now."
Narrator "They travel the bumpy road until they near the town and come to a stop just outside the city limits. The hospital is just a block away."
Charles blinks
Melinda is ignoring Trent
Janice stops the truck, "Alright everyone out!"
Melinda looking over at Charles "Janice sort of borrowed it, shall we say."
Charles "That was quick."
Janice agrees with Charles, "Yeah too quick."
Wanda "She drives fast, no?"
Melinda "She drives like that all the time. Well at least from what I've seen."
Charles "Wonder if the chaps back in the isles are missing me."
Janice looks at the Director, "What no tidal-waves, no volcanoes erupting, no insects? no filler of any kind?"
Melinda grabs her stuff and gets ready to get out of the truck
Charles "Who's she talking to?" asking Melinda
Melinda "She does that too. Don't ask."
Charles blinks again
Melinda tries to get outta the truck but bumps her head on the roof of it. "Ow."
Janice "Okay... we will take Trent to the Hospital, Then Mel you take Charles and Wanda on to the Hotel. I have to meet someone."
Melinda "Ok Janice I'll get the them all settled into the hotel."
Charles "Well I say"
Melinda "Ok Janice I'll get the them all settled into the hotel."
Janice turns away from the camera and tries not to giggle, "Come on Trent"
Wanda "oooo la la a hotel."
Melinda looking at everyone "Shall we?" and turns to head to the hotel.
Charles just grins
Melinda turns around to make sure everyone is following her into the hotel.
Narrator "Janice leads the poor Trent towards the hospital."
Charles follows Melinda
Melinda walks up the desk clerk.
Wanda follows Mel
Janice leads Helena, Steel and Trent
Melinda "Wanda you can stay in my suit if ya'd like. Smithers and Charles, who two wouldn't mind sharin a room would ya?"
Narrator "Janice drops Trent off and continues heading to meet this someone. Janice split off with all the characters that aren’t playing to night to get rid of them - plot expedition, it has to go somewhere. Leaves a note on a door in a average part of town near the market."
Wanda just looks at the new guy and smiles
Melinda is waiting for the clerk
Charles smiles back at Wanda, a bit nervously
Clerk comes out but doesn’t look up "what do you need?"
Melinda "I have my hotel key already." Melinda to the hotel clerk "Could we get a room here for Mr...."turning around to look at Charles, "Sorry was your last name again?"
Charles "Igglesworth."
Melinda smiles and turns back to the clerk "Mr. Igglesworth."
Clerk "let me see if, ah yes, we have one left."
Charles grins at the Clerk
Melinda "Thank ya kindly."
Clerk "You got money?"
Melinda to the clerk "Oh Big Rod has checked outta the hotel also."
Clerk "We have only the one cuz that Big Rod guy checked out, he left food everywhere. What a slob."
Melinda to Charles "She needs ya to pay for the room. Hope ya got some money on you."
Charles "Oh?"
Melinda is starting to wonder where Janice went off to.
Charles checks his wallet "You take pounds?"
Clerk "I can put it on their account" and hands Charles a key and she gives him a toothless smile "You got plans for the night?"
Charles "Um , ur well , um " stutters
Clerk smiles and bats her one good eye
Melinda "So Charles. What are ya gonna do?"
Charles "Well , I'll just take the room .... just the room"
Janice is walking down the street back to the hotel, the person she wanted to meet wasn’t there.
Clerk "fine what ever" and storms into the back office
Melinda "Ok then that sounds fine."
Narrator "Janice see someone familiar"
Charles "I think I upset the poor las"
Melinda looks at the clerk storming off.
Wanda "do you really care about ze girl?"
Melinda shrugs
Janice walks over to a guy in the market selling food "So they let you out of jail? Poisoning the Ambassador I thought was punishable by death. Janice waves to the person she knows and turns around smacking right into Smithers.
Smithers falls into the market stall with Janice
Janice lands hard on the ground and pulls out her gun ignoring her hat rolling off. "Oh Its you again. I should have known." Janice attempts to get up and falls back into the merchandise
Smithers stands up and dust himself off "Isn't that a bit extreme for you average pick pocket mamdam."
Janice giggles through a sneer, "Oh a wise guy?" Janice looks around noticing no one paid attention to that comment and holsters her gun. "So how'd you get back to town?"
Smithers smiles and doffs his bowler "Excuse my tardiness but I had trouble parking the car where the locals would not try and steel it"
Janice fumbles getting up and retrieves her hat. "So it's in Istanbual now?" jokes "Well you are here now, come on everyone is waiting."
Smithers "Actually madam I found somewhere nearer the hotel"
Janice heads towards the hotel again, "This is gonna be one long hot bastard of a day." she mumbles
Smithers looks Janice up and down "And here was me thinking you had come out to actually buy a skirt."
Wanda begins to wonder what happened to Janice
Melinda watches the clerk disappear behind through the door
Smithers follows Janice looking only slightly embarrassed
Melinda "Well now shall we all head to our rooms? I'm gettin tired and need to change outta this suit." Melinda is still standin in front of the hotel desk "I need to make sure my hand is ok also. Now where is Janice?"
Wanda "I’m getting hungry"
Janice walks along with Smithers following thinking, "Slugger" and giggles to herself seeing the hotel only a few yards away now
Wanda looks at the other two "You want ze food while we wait?"
Melinda "Ya wanna get somethin to eat first Wanda?" Melinda giggles
Wanda "Just what I was thinkin."
Trent looks at the nurse, "Well heeeeeellllllo there. I think I’m gonna like being laid up."
Charles "All right then"
Narrator "The three go to the hotel restaurant."
Janice turns back to see if Smithers is still following, "You can walk with me I don't bite that hard."
Narrator "They sit down and wait for a waiter, who is no where to be found."
Smithers "It is a gentleman’s place to follow the master."
Melinda takes her napkin and places it on her lap.
Janice rolls her eyes, "Smithers, what’s gotten into you today? You don't work for that goon anymore you don't have to act like this."
Wanda sits down next to Mel
Charles sits across and grins at the two
Wanda "where ze heck has Janice gotten to?"
Melinda looks at Charles "So Charles tell me about yourself. What were ya doin before ya landed on our roof?"
Wanda winks at Charles
Smithers looks at Janice sternly "Madam, it is my place to serve, After all, I'm just the Driver."
Melinda "Not sure Wanda, but I hope she's not gettin herself in trouble."
Janice walks into the hotel, worse for wear and needing a shower and a rest, until her stomach growls. Janice walks up to the clerks and rings the bell, <"Are there any messages for Covington?"> in Greek.
Charles "Ah there’s a story, it was a dog fight, I had em in my sights, then ......."
Smithers politely waits
Melinda giggles "Then ya ended up landin on our roof."
Clerk <"yeah some busty number left one for you.">
Charles "Right after spilling my tea on the controls."
Janice giggles <"May I have it?">
Clerk <"she and her little friends will meet you in there"> She points to the restaurant
Charles "Talking of tea, where’s that waiter"
Janice nods Smithers on, "Lets get some grub"
Melinda looks around "That's a good question."
Smithers eyes the hotel and contemplates doing better "Whatever you say sir"
Janice stops, "I'm not sir, you got that? I’m a Doctor." Shakes her head, "Huge difference" and walks into the restaurant.
Wanda is still looking around for the waiter and spots Janice
Melinda nonchalantly adjusts the money that is still down her bra.
Wanda stands up and waves her over
Smithers inclines his head "Please excuse my faux pas, DOCtor"
Wanda sees that out of the corner of her eye and grins
Janice "I can see those two from here, follow me Smith."
Wanda sees them coming and sits back down
Janice wasn't talking about the girls either
Melinda spots Janice
Smithers follows and pulls the Doctors chair out for her
Wanda "ah there she is. but who is that with her?"
Janice grabs another chair and spins it next to Mel and Charles, putting a wedge between them
Melinda to Smithers "My what a gentleman."
Wanda smiles at the stranger "hello."
Janice "Sorry Smith thought that was yours"
Melinda "So where have ya been? And how's Trent doin?"
Charles "Hello , hello."
Smithers inclines his head at Mel, "Ms Pappas, your radiance is a pleasure as always."
Melinda blushes, muttering to herself "Oh my."
Janice "Hey all, Trent’s fine. Look who I bumped into here."
Smithers finds some dust on himself to brush off
Melinda smiling "Yes Smithers."
Janice nudges Melinda, "There she goes again, gonna give him a complex I tell you." Says to herself.
Melinda whispers "Janice stop it."
Janice "So what have you ordered?"
Charles looks around for the waiter
Melinda "Smithers, won't ya have a seat with us?"
Wanda looks at Smithers and says "I don't believe we have met, no?"
Melinda "Well the waiter hasn't shown up yet, unfortunately."
Smithers "It would be more fitting Madam, If ate with the rest of the servents later." waits to be introduced
Janice shakes her head, "Smithers cut the horse hockey, and sit down with us. I know about you Smithy."
Melinda "Smithers now you stop that and sit down here with us. We won't have any of that." waits for Smithers to join them
Wanda lifts an eyebrow and wonders "I wonder just what she knows about him."
Smithers reluctantly pulls up a chair, sitting bolt upright "Mam, Sir, I am Mr. Smithers, this lady and the Doctor’s driver."
Melinda holds her hand up to her bosoms. "Oh now, where are my manners. Smithers this is Mr. Charles Igglesworth."
Wanda "ze pleasure."
Charles "Nice to meet you old chap"
Janice spots a waiter way off in the distance and stands up shouting in Greek, <"Hey Sparky we need some menu's over here, pronto!">
Smithers takes Wanda’s hand and kisses it lightly
Narrator "The waiter hears Janice and hurries off to get the menus"
Smithers extends a hand to Charles "You look to be a fellow Englishman from your garb."
Charles shakes Smithers hand "Indeed I am old boy, nice to finally meet some one from the isles out here."
Waiter comes over carrying menus and a pitcher of water
Smithers removes his bowler
Waiter begins hands the people their menus, Janice takes the menu handed to her and glances it over, rattling off a quick meal for herself. "Mel what would you like?"
Melinda takes a menu and starts to look it over "Now Janice I don't know. Any suggestions? What do they have here ta eat? I'm starvin."
Smithers continues talking to Charles "From your garb I would say that you are part of the Air Arm?"
Waiter begins to fill glasses with water
Smithers catches the waiters attention "Could I have some Tea?"
Melinda looks up "Yes tea sounds good for me also please."
Charles "Why yes."
Waiter "Sure. What do the rest of you want to drink?"
Charles "yes make that three tea's"
Janice "Why yes Mel why don’t you have what you had the other day, or even that morning. Or better yet what about that dish you had from here ordered to the room?"
Wanda "Same."
Janice "Scotch, on the rocks" being a smart-ass again
Melinda "Janice I can't remember what I had."
Waiter writes the order down "I will be back with the drinks"
Janice shakes her head at Mel, "You sure you are gonna be okay for this line of work?"
Waiter walks over and whispers to Wanda "I will have the money I owe you for the other night later. You were great by the way. I just now am able to walk straight."
Smithers reaches into his pocket and removes a silver cigarette case which he offers to all around the table, not actually taking one himself
Wanda "Don’t forget ze tip."
Smithers blushes
Janice is contemplating dumping Wanda, she's bad for the reputation of the crew.
Melinda heard that but is not gonna ask what Wanda was talking about.
Janice takes one of the cigarettes "Ah civilization."
Smithers makes a mental note to ask Wanda about that later!
Charles refuses the cigarette
Wanda shakes her head no
Janice is trying to forget that Wanda
Melinda looks over at Smithers "Oh lordy another smoker."
Wanda looks around the table
Smithers does not have a cigarette
Waiter brings the drinks back "You ready or what?"
Janice lights the cigarette and leans back happy to be alive
Melinda sniffs the air and looks up at Janice
Smithers waits for the ladies and the Doctor to order
Janice ordered
Narrator "It is the end of the day..."
Melinda doesn't know what to order "Ya might just have to come back to me later."
Janice orders for Mel, "You had that last time and liked it."
Charles looks at the menu
Waiter begins to write down orders
Melinda sighs "Fine Janice." looks around at everyone at the table.
Charles points to some thing on the menu and shows the Waiter
Smithers looks at the waiter "Do you have anything without shell fish or olives in it?"
Wanda smiles at Charles
Melinda "So Smithers where have ya been?"
Charles smiles back nervously at Wanda
Smithers "I had to secure our vehicle from the natives madam"
Melinda takes the glass of water sitting in front of her and sips it, giggles "Why? Where they tryin ta steal it?"
Charles sips his tea
Melinda to Smithers "And please call me Mel. Ya don't have to be so formal."
Smithers "Well you know what these Deigos are like madam, if its not nailed down they will have it right away, ask the Doctor."
Wanda looks at Smithers "but you can call me what ever you want"
Janice chuckles
Melinda seems taken aback "Really?"
Janice "Mel did you forget the tablet?"
Smithers "If it makes you happy Madem er, Mel."
Wanda smiles
Smithers "Oh Yes, its to do with their diet you see, they are practically savages"
Janice finishes her Cigarette drinks her scotch "hhhhaaarrrr" and coughs, "That’s good stuff" completely horse.
Melinda reaches under the table and seems to be looking for something.
Janice jumps back, "Mel?
Melinda is still looking for something
Janice eyes are wide, "What are you doing?" whispering to her
Smithers puts one lump of sugar in his tea, sips it, grimaces and then adds another two lumps
Janice glances down to make sure that wasn't Mel’s foot.
Melinda "Lookin for that bag."
Janice pulls up her bag, "This one?"
Melinda looks embrassed. "Yeah that one."
Narrator "The group finishes their meal after they FINALLY get it and head to their rooms to retire for the evening."
Smithers kisses all the ladies goodnight on there hands, except for the Doctor.
Melinda "Nite Smithers."
Janice unlocks the door and slings everything on the desk and collapses on the bed face first, "Shower can wait" and falls asleep fully clothed boots and all.
Melinda looks at Janice "Well now she's taken up the whole bed."
Wanda winks good night to Smithers and heads into the room for some sleep.
Charles bows
Melinda pokes her head out the door looking to say goodnite to Charles
Smithers watches Wanda walk off
Melinda "Nite Charles." Melinda goes back into the room
Charles goes and unlocks the door
Wanda falls asleep happy
Charles "Good night Ladies"
Melinda nudges Janice’s leg "Janice?"
Wanda mumbles "goodnight" to everyone
Melinda nudges her again "Janice."
Melinda sighs
Janice "Zzzzzzzz"
Charles falls asleep and all
Smithers goes to bed and has nightmares about being upstaged by an over muscled man that is named Lemon Sorbet.
Charles snores loudly
Melinda looks down at Janice trying to figure out how to move her over a bit.
Janice looks up groggly, "What’s that noise?"
Narrator "There is some banging that continues to come from next door. Wanda is sound asleep, passed out on the couch where she sat. Wanda is sound asleep
Janice sits up and nearly knocks Mel of the bed by accident.
Narrator "There is a loud crash."
Janice jumps off the bed and runs to the door, swinging it open and heading to that hall.
Melinda wakes up "What's goin on?" looks very confused
Narrator "Wanda rolls over still asleep."
Janice runs into the hall
Narrator "There is another bang."
Melinda looks over to sleep the door is wide open and Janice is missin again. Melinda jumps outta the bed and heads to the door "What on earth was that?!?"
Narrator "Charles hears some of the noise and begins to wake up. Janice sees the door has been broken into."
Charles snorts and rubs his eyes as he wakes up, yawns "What’s all the noise?"
Janice looks in
Charles goes out into the hall
Narrator "Janice sees a figure near the window."
Melinda pokes her head out the door to see what's going on.
Janice looks at the figure
Narrator "Wanda is still sleeping like a baby. Smithers begins to wake up hearing the sounds."
Charles looks over at Janice
Narrator "The Figure pulls a gun out."
Janice ducks into the hallway, tackling Mel into the room
Smithers murmurs "But I wanna have cool armbands too."
Melinda wonders what Janice is doing in Charles room.
Janice is a god today
Melinda "What the..."
Janice "Oomph."
Charles went into the hall Mel
Narrator "A bang is heard by everyone. And then some shattering glass. Wanda...believe it or not is STILL sleeping."
Smithers rolls out of bed and goes for his .45
Melinda "Hmmm Janice... You can get off of me now, I think."
Janice "Stay here and call downstairs tell them there is a burglar in Helena’s room."
Melinda "A what?"
Janice "Just do it." she whispers and grabs her whip that’s handy creeping to the door and peeks out
Melinda "Are ya sure it's just not Helena and that Steel gent."
Janice looks at Mel and does the shush sign.
Smithers heads down to the noise
Narrator "The figure runs out the door running into Charles and knocking him over"
Melinda gets on all fours and crawls to the door behind Janice
Charles gets knocked over and blinks
Janice snaps her whip back and tries to snatch the burglars legs
Narrator "He runs into Smithers and just gets outta his grasp."
Melinda tries to see what's goin on outside the door but doesn't want to get too close to it
Narrator "Janices whip hits the man but does not take him down as he keeps running"
Smithers legs it after the mysterious man
Janice "Damnit!" Janice runs after him and hurls her body at him
Charles gets up "That was abit off ."
Melinda gets up off the floor and peaks out of the door into the hallway to see what's goin on.
Narrator "The figure is bleeding from his leg from the whip."
Charles forgot to say "Well I say"
Smithers gives chase
Narrator Janice tackles the figure and tumbles to the ground on top of him
Janice scrambles to get a hold of the guy and hold him down.
Narrator The guy attempts to kick her
Melinda decides now is a good time to go see what in blazes is goin on, heads out the door
Janice thinks, "A net would be good right about now, maybe I will go buy one from Rod tomorrow"
Narrator His leg wound makes the kick to light to be felt by Janice
Smithers waits for an opening
Janice Winces, had to be that bad knee didn't it
Narrator The man spits on Janice and sees Smithers coming towards him
Janice "Charming" She slugs him "AHAH!"
Charles goes over to Melinda "What on earth is happening?"
Narrator Janice's punch finds his nose and it begins to bleed
Janice tries to tie the guy up with her whip wondering where the hell the hotel staff is
Narrator He isn't putting up much of a fight now
Janice notes the guy is a pushover
Smithers looks down "Are you Ok Doctor, or would you like some assistance?"
Janice "Grab his feet and tie it up, Mel call downstairs!"
Melinda to Charles "Well I'm not quite sure myself. Somethin about someone being in Helena's a room and now Janice an Smithers have him cornered."
Narrator Wanda FINALLY begins to stir
Melinda turns around and heads back to her room to call downstairs.
Smithers looks for something to tie the mans feet
Janice socks the guy again for good measure to knock him out
Bell Boy comes running out of the elevator <"What the....">
Melinda makes the call then heads back to the others.
Janice's punch lands square on his jaw and he is on the verge of passing out Janice hits him again, and another time for the hell of it
Narrator The man is a bloody mess now
Janice is pummeling this guys face in
Melinda "Janice I think that's good enough. You can stop hittin him now."
Narrator And has passed out
Janice "One more Mel, the bastard kicked me in the knee"
Melinda sighs and knows Janice is going to do it anyway.
Janice stands up and kicks him with her good leg
Narrator Janice broke his leg and a rib. He is in bad shape
Smithers winces for the poor unfortunate stuntman
Charles heads over to Janice "Well I say"
Wanda comes out into the hall
Narrator Janice sees Smithers tuck the gun away into his jacket
Bell Boy <"what the hell is going on?">, "What have you done to this man?" (broken english)
Melinda "Good question."
Janice "This burglar broke into that room there and tore it up"
Smithers wanders off to check the room
Janice is thankful that she fell asleep with steel toed boots on
Smithers looks at himself in the hall mirror and checks to make sure that he doesn’t have anything stuck in his teeth "God I look good!"
Smithers was about to look in the burgled room.
Charles was standing in the corridor
Wanda was just getting out of bed
Melinda coughs
Bell Boy comes back with the police and show them the body.
Melinda "Shouldn't we go to see what he took from Helena's room, if anythin?"
Janice follows Smithers to the room
Melinda follows along after Janice
Charles follows to
Janice peeks in the door
Melinda holds her head "I feel a headache comin on."
Narrator The room is dark
Melinda looks for a light switch.
Janice brushes Mel’s hand Melinda smiles at Janice "Thank you."
Smithers gropes for the light switch and finds Mel’s left Boob
Janice flips on the lights
Janice shaking head "the last one that did that"
Melinda turns around and smacks Smithers in the face
Janice "Ouch that gotta hurt"
Melinda is turnin red in the face every second.
Smithers falls to the floor with a thump
Jack Kleinman in the jungle somewhere, "Guys? Guys?!!!! Come on this isn’t funny anymore! GUUUUUUUYSS!"
Melinda "I swear if ya ever do such a thing a again I'll... I'll.... you'll be sorry."
Charles "Well I say." pokes Smithers with his boot
Narrator Janice finds the light switch and turns it on. they see something by the window
Smithers rubs his face "Yes, I think I will!"
Melinda adjusts herself to make sure the money is still there.
Janice carefully walks to the window
Narrator Janice sees what looks like a person laying face down
Janice goes over and turns them over
Melinda tries to compose herself and walks into the room.
Charles steps over Smithers as he enters the room
Smithers follows after well "Please except my apologies Madam, I thought you were... I was just trying to turn you on"
Narrator She recognizes the bloody forms to be Helena and Steel. Helena's tongue has been cut out and Steel is near death himself
Janice picks up Steel head, "Who did this?"
Charles "Gads"
Steel "he..."
Janice "HE who?"
Melinda didn't hear a word of what Smithers just said to her
Smithers listens and looks for clues
Steel "The one that gave it to me.."
Janice "Gave what? Steel what are you talking about?"
Steel "I... He was gonna help us get out of the...of Greece... I told him."
Janice "who Steel Who I don’t know what you are talking about."
Steel "I told him about the scrolls..."
Charles "Scrolls?"
Janice drops Steel with a thud, "My scrolls?"
Steel "Oomph."
Charles is rather confused
Melinda "You told him about the scrolls?!? Why would ya do a thing like that?"
Charles looks at Melinda "Scrolls?"
Steel "I didn't know"
Janice looks down, "Steel what’s his name I need a name?"
Smithers murmurs "Probably because he just cut your friend tongue out!"
Melinda looks over at Charles "Yes scrolls that me and Janice found."
Janice thinks to herself "Helena was never my friend"
Steel "I thought he was going to help us Mel"
Janice looks at Steel, "How could he help us if we didn’t want to leave?"
Steel "we ha...we have to get them out somehow" coughs
Janice "Them? Them what Steel?
Melinda "Well after Janice beat the tar outta him I don't think he'll be helpin anyone with anythin for a while."
Steel wheezes "the scrolls."
Janice "We have the scrolls Steel. All tucked away safely"
Charles "Scrolls?"
Melinda "Yes Charles scrolls. I'll have to explain that all to ya later on."
Narrator "Smithers looks around and sees nothing"
Steel coughs and begins to pass out
Charles "Oh thanks you Melinda"
Janice looks for that Bell Hop, "We need a Doctor in here!"
Smithers heads for the door
Melinda wonders if the police took that man to jail yet, clears her throat "Well I think I'm just gonna head back to my room now. Too much excitement for one day."
Janice shakes her head at Melinda
Melinda turns to leave and gives Smithers a look before she leaves.
Janice looks at the Bell boy "Get this man to a hospital. You’re gonna be okay Steel, Hang in there."
Charles "I say , she seems a bit peeved Smithy ,old chap"
Melinda heads out the door towards her room.
Smithers mummers to Chaz "So would you be old chap if someone had used your mammary for a light switch"
Charles "Well, I say!"
Steel wheezes and dies
Janice looks sad, "I’m sorry Steel."
Smithers checks the body
Charles thinks about that
Janice looks around the room
Narrator Smithers finds a lugar under the body that has been fired
Smithers will pocket that as well
Janice takes it from Smithers (dramatic thing here) "Germans!" she hisses and hands the gun back to him
Narrator The room has been tossed, everything is broken and blood is every place
Smithers to Janice "So it would appear Doctor"
Narrator Janice finds nothing in the room
Melinda after hearing Janice shout Germans head back to the room.

Melinda is still heading for her room
Smithers goes to comfort Wanda
Charles heads out the room also
Narrator Janice finds a note in the pocket of the burglar in Steels handwritings. It is an address.
Janice reads it and then slips it in her pocket
Janice turns and rushes into her room and checks for the rucksack she threw on the desk
Melinda watches as Janice runs into the room "What's wrongs now?"
Janice "Scrolls..." she mumbles
Melinda "Sorry, scrolls? What about them?"
Janice pulls out the bag and dumps it on the desk
Charles wonders if any one else is in the hall
Janice "Mel there is something in here the Germans want, and I need you to find out what that is"
Melinda get up to see what Janice is looking for "There should be there."
Janice walks back out into the hall and notices that Charles just disappeared in a puff of smoke
Wanda is very confused after being woken up like that
Smithers will walk her back to her room and tuck her in
Janice looks for Charles in the rooms.
Wanda yawns and looks at Mel "Zis we cannot take care of tonight"
Janice turns to Smithers, "I think we should take shifts and keep an eye out, I have a feeling whoever did this will be back."
Wanda smiles at Smithers and enters the room
Smithers looks after Wanda and says to Janice "I agree, your on first watch!" Smithers follows Wanda
Melinda is still standing at the table wondering what in the world is going on
Police officer Walks up to Janice and speaks in Greek <"We aren't going to get anything out of him now" pointing to the burglar "I will be in touch, the ambulance should be here soon">
Janice glances at Mel, "Actually Mel will be I want her to do some skimming for me."
Melinda raises an eyebrow as she watches Smithers "I swear that man just can't keep his hands to himself."
Janice turns to Charles "We should take shifts, Mel will be first, you second and I will take the last one I am worried whoever did this will return"
Charles nods
Narrator They all begin to head to their rooms, not with out thinking about what just happened.
Melinda "Janice, I'll be first?"
Janice says goodnight to the boys, and closes their door, "Mel I just want you to read through some of these and see if there is any reason why the Germans want them
Charles goes back to his room
Narrator The whole group
Melinda looks at the scrolls "I can do. But what exactly am I lookin for?"
Narrator The group are all tucked away in their rooms and get ready for a very restless nights sleep.
Janice shrugs totally worn out and a bit bruised "I have no idea Mel, But I don’t feel very well right now" She sites on the bed
Melinda "Are you ok Janice?"
Charles goes back to sleep
Janice looks a bit pale
Wanda falls asleep
Melinda walks over to Janice "Janice? Are you ok?" Melinda looks down at her
Janice undresses and lays back, "I think I just need to rest Mel. Its been a hellava day"
Melinda nods "Alright then you do that." Then turns around to get started on the scrolls. "This might take all night for me to do."

Melinda looks up "Hmmmm Why would the nazis need this things?"
Charles snores
Melinda unrolls one of them and starts tryin to translate it
Narrator the whole gang other than Mel is asleep. Mel is reading the scrolls and comparing the note Janice found to them.

Janice makes a motorcycle noise and giggles
Narrator The scrap has an address outside of town and the word 'book' in ancient Greek
Melinda turns around havin a confused look on her face. "Motorcycle noises?"
Wanda mumbles in her sleep something about Melinda biting
Janice is sound asleep again
Melinda looks back down at the note. "What's this?" Melinda gets up for her seat, with the note in hand and walks over to Janice. Melinda wonders if she should wake up Janice "Won't want her puttin me in the shower or anythin." Melinda whispers "Janice?"
Janice stirs and smiles
Melinda "Janice, I think I found somethin."
Janice snuggles the pillow, "hummmm"
Melinda taps Janice on the shoulder. "Janice wake up."

Melinda sighs to herself. "What on heavens sakes is she talkin bout?" Melinda shakes Janice shoulder hopin that'll work to wake her up
Janice opens an eye and looks around "Mel?"
Melinda "Janice. My lordly she sleeps like a rock."
Janice hasn’t slept in weeks
Melinda "Janice I think I found somethin on this note." Melinda sits down on the edge of the bed.
Janice sits up and rubs eyes, "what note?"
Melinda hands her the note "This note you gave me before ya went to sleep."
Wanda stirs a bit and smiles
Charles still snores
Janice looks at note, "what did you find?"
Wanda begins to wake up hearing the voices
Melinda points that the address "Look here. It's some sorta address and," points down "a some sorta book."
Wanda thinks to herself "I hate when you are having a great dream and then you wake up"
Janice nods, "And you woke me up for a sorta? Mel get some sleep."
Melinda "I don't know what it is."
Janice collapses back to the bed and tries to get comfortable
Melinda sighs "Janice you didn't tell me not to wake you up. You just told me to try and find somethin. Well... I think this is a somethin."
Wanda "what are you talking about...iz late no?"
Janice "good then it can wait till the morning."
Melinda looks at Wanda "Yes it's late." Melinda sighs and gets up from the bed.
Janice stretches out
Wanda grins and thinks about her group "well as long as I'm up can I go wake up Charles"
Melinda looks back at the two sleepin comfy. "Well..." and reaches over for a pillow "I'll be takin one of those." Melinda tries to pull one of the pillows from under Janice's and Wanda's head.
Melinda there are many pillows on the bed... work with me here! :p

Melinda finally pulls one out from under their heads and head to the sofa to lay down

Melinda gets outta bed and goes over to the mirror. "I hate sleepin with my makeup on." and sighs.

Melinda "What about that address I found last night in that note?"
Janice sticks her arm out of the bathroom and hands Mel some cold cream

Wanda giggles to herself
Janice "Yes Mel and I see him." head into the restaurant to Sal

Wanda follows
Melinda "Well yes it looks like it. Are ya sure they're not related?"
Charles follows to

Janice looks as she always does... disinterested yet aware
Charles looks around for a waiter
Janice looks around
Wanda "don’t mind me" Wanda raises a brow "I believe we have met, he was a how do you say...friend one night"

Janice "Sal is my personal 'salvation army'"
Melinda "Well it says here somethin bout a book and it gives an address. I think we should look into it."
Sal "just give me a list of what you need and I get it for you"
Janice rattles off orders for chuck and Mel and herself, letting Sal the Greek order himself
Waiter makes a note and leaves the group
Janice pulls out her journal and writes a few things down and rips off the paper handing it to Sal
Wanda "So Sal have you heard of ziz place?"
Janice "Oh drat Wanda what would you like to eat?" Janice knows she will regret that wording to Wanda
Melinda shows Sal the note
Janice looks at Mel and shrugs
Sal "Hmmm I might have my mind is a bit blurry."
Wanda grins "Zhey don’t have it on ze menu."

Waiter sees Janice coming <"Is there something else?">
Sal "Why do you want to go there anyway."
Melinda "Somethin bout a book. I wanna see what it is."
Wanda looks at Mel
Janice rattles off a new order to the Greek for Wanda
Sal raises an eyebrow

Waiter <"ok got it. anything else?">
Sal "What kinda book."

Waiter <"guess not">
Janice looks back at the waiter and shakes her head no
Melinda "I don't know. That's what I wanna find out. We just need to know where that address is."
Janice looks at Charles "You okay there pal?"
Charles "What what?"
Janice Hands Chuck a good cigar.
Sal "I know where it is but you don't want to go there."

Melinda "Why is that?"
Janice looks at Sal, "We have been worse places"
Charles "No thank you Ms Covington"
Janice shrugs "thought you highbrow Gents liked a good cigar
Sal "no one has ever come out of there"
Janice thinks about the basement at faces a certain bar she knows from what Sal said then shakes herself from it
Charles "Were did you hear that?"
Wanda "what do you mean 'out of there'? zis doesn’t sound good"
Janice "oh I spent time in England"

Melinda "Sal if ya know where it is just tell us."
Sal "But if you want me to show you where it is but I want some money up front"
Wanda "Can you show us where ziz place is?"
Melinda wonders if the waiter is ever gonna show up with the food.
Janice puts the cigar in her mouth knowing Mel will probably say something
Waiter comes back with the food and a smile
Melinda "Money isn't the problem. How much do ya need?"
Janice looks at Melinda's bosom, "give him a taste of what we got"
Sal "500."
Melinda covers her bosom with her hand "Janice stop it."
Charles sips some tea
Janice "500 dinars? no problem"
Melinda sighs "Ok we can do that."

Sal "now about the supplies it will cost 1000 dinars to get all your stuff"
Wanda sees a yellow flower on the table and puts it in Mel’s hair "zhere zat is nice no?"
Janice "Sal its a few things"
Melinda sighs to herself thinkin "Why didn't he tell me that before I put the money back?"
Janice "Whats a few bits of clothes, hell I’m small"
Sal "some of it is hard to come by with these damn nazi's around"
Melinda smiles "Thank ya Wanda it's lovely."
Wanda giggles "I’m glad he didn’t tell you"
Janice "We just like watching you dig it out"
Charles "Dig?"
Melinda ignores all the comments as she counts out more money "Anythin else before I put it away again?"
Wanda smiles
Janice looks at Sal, "Okay here’s the deal, you come to the meeting place with us and I will pay you after it"
Wanda bites her tongue
Janice "No Mel put it away again" looks at Wanda and shakes her head 'no don’t say it'
Sal "ok I get your stuff and meet you in the lobby of this hotel"
Charles blinks and sips his tea
Janice looks at chuck and winks, "Oh yeah Mel can dig in a bra better than anyone else I know"
Melinda mumbles to herself, looking annoyed and shoves the money back to down the front of her shirt.
Wanda "do you have a truck Sal? I don’t like ze idea of riding in zat German thing."
Charles looks at Melinda and blushes a bit
Janice "Sal lets eat this wonderful food "eyes the waiter coming "then go together shall we"

Wanda "Its not on a patch or necklace or anything?"
Charles shakes his head "No"
Janice "Sal it was part of the deal"
Melinda "Probably hit his head when he landed on the roof of our truck."
Wanda "Ow."
Sal "Well I’ll look into it later."
Melinda "Maybe we should have had him checked out at the hospital along with Trent? Wonder how he's doin?"
Sal "You want to go to cave or not"
Wanda eyes get wide "cave? Where is a cave there?"

Wanda follows Sal
Sal heads around back
Janice "I heard about this in Burkittsville, Maryland once"
Melinda "I didn't get that far into them. I noticed that note first. I haven't have time to translate all them scrolls."
