“Panicky? Who’s panicking, I haven’t even gotten started panicking. You want panicky you shoulda been here last week when one of my shows ended it’s season on a cliffhanger. It was that one with the guy and that girl with her hair going all over the place, and it looks like she has cat ears but really it’s just her hair.” Rita made various hand motions above her head to give a clearer picture of what the actress’s hair looked like before going back into her explanation. “Like I said it ended on a cliffhanger: we were finally going to find out just what the deal was with the horse. In every episode there would always be a scene or two showing what was going on in the horse’s life, most of the time it didn’t have anything to do with the over arching plot of it all. Franny says I’m cuckoo but I’m telling you all the signs point to Sherry, the horse, being secretly in love with the main girl you remember the girl with the cat ears that are really just her hair. The way they ended the season ought to be illegal, I tell you. The final scene cut to the main girl’s face and then to Sherry who was just about to say something real important KABLAMO!!!”
Rita smacked her hands together then made an explosion motion with them. Her next words quieter than her previous gushings about her show, almost as if she was talking to herself.
“Show is over for three weeks if you can believe it. I always hate when they cut things off before it gets real interesting.”
“Blimey, and people say I’ve got a mouth on me!” He smiled and did his best to look reassuring. “Alright, so you’re not panicking. Which is good! No need to panic. What’s your name?”
