Summary: Miles settles in for game night.
Miles stares at the crazy layout Hurley has created.
"What in the hell are you doing." Miles stares a moment longer and then shakes his head.
"It's Clue, dude."
"That is not Clue."
"Okay, so, maybe it's not exactly Clue, but, they don't actually have it here and I'm scared to like, ask for it on the next sub run. So I made us one."
Miles sits down on the sofa and shoots a look at Jin.
"Were you involved in this?"
"I not know Clue." Jin puts his hands up, absolving himself of the ludicrous set-up on the coffee table. Hurley has drawn out a make-shift board on colored pieces of construction paper. Miles bends to look closer.
"I don't think one of the rooms in Clue was called 'the one with the plants'."
"So, I couldn't remember all the rooms. Still works, dude. I cut out a little rope and a revolver and everything." He holds up flimsy, tiny pieces of paper that are supposed to resemble weapons yet look like nothing of the sort. "You wanna play?"
"No, not really. Is there a reason that you can't just play one of the games we do have?"
Hurley frowns.
"All we have is like Trivial Pursuit. And all the questions are pre-1977. That's like, pre-Star Wars. It's not really fair, dude, my brain doesn't go back that far."
"Yeah, well...I'm not playing this." He gestures down to the multi-colored atrocity that Hurley has pieced together with tape and staples and drawn on with crayon.
"C'mon, man. Can't play Clue with just two people. Doesn't work." Hurley pleads. Miles points at Jin.
"You're playing?"
Jin nods, though Miles has to think he's not that sure what he's agreeing to. Jin seems to understand what Miles is assuming.
"Hurley went through trouble. I will play."
Jin's sincerity nags on his sense of guilt like the little old ladies who just wanted to say good-bye to their cats one more time and he took their money despite the fact he didn't do animals. Even if he could hear them, how was he supposed to speak cat, for christ's sake?
"Fine. But I get to be Miss Scarlet."
Hurley and Jin both stop and look at him, eyebrows raised.
"What? She's like, the only one among them who's badass." He picks up the square piece of purple paper and hands it to Hurley. "Be dweeby Professor Plum, see if I care."
He surveys the board for the place to put his playing piece and scowls.
"Hurley, I don't think there is an arcade in Clue."
"There is now!" He points to his indecipherable drawings. "I even put an ATARI in there. ATARI's invented by now, right?"
"I love Space Invaders." Jin comments with a giddy grin. Hurley gives him a high five and Miles buries his head in his hands.
It's going to be a long night.
