Even when holding the radio at arm’s length, Talbot’s voice is WAY too loud! Grimacing at the ringing in your ears, you ask if he REALLY needs you to explain a third time! Is he DUMB or something!?
“Nah, just…” Your ex-bodyguard stumbles, “Y’know, I mean, um-”
“We’ll be there, boss!” Mitzi cuts in in a cheerful voice! “Should be a safe place to dock.”
“YOU know where it is TOO!?” Talbot continues in a somehow even MORE incredulous tone! “Wh-”
“They’ve got really good bathrooms there.” Mitzi explains in a matter-of-fact voice. See? “And I worked there for a few Summers.” See-wait, WHA?
“Just kidding~” Mitzi giggles. “Seriously though, the drinks there are cheap as hell. It’s right off the beach, too.”
Hah! It all makes sense, doesn’t it?
“One more thing, boss:” Adds the Rent-A-Cop, “You guys staying down there, or should we drop anchor so you can climb back up?”
“It might take some time before we can regroup again…” Sybil warns, prompting you to adopt a ‘thinking’ pose. “Though there’s also no telling how long that DEMON will be gone.”
“Am I da’ only one rememberin’ da’ huge-ass CANNONS we turned back on?” Ly adds, clearly not pleased with the decision. “If dose’ can turn a sub into a crater an’ send dat’ demon packin’, think about what they can do to a friggin’ yacht!”
“Ly’s right,” Sybil huffs, “there’s no shortage of pros and cons here…”
“Hey, uh… you guys think we should scout out that club? Y-y’know…” Talbot mutters through the radio, “F-for uh… scouting… purposes?”
“Keep it up and you’ll be scouting overboard.” Mitzi warns. “Well, Stan? Need a lift or what?”
Well?
