Case #1: The Stars Look Very Different Today

[feellikejumping]

[Accidental video]
[Standing in the City Square, Sam Tyler freezes, his eyes scanning over this unfamiliar landscape with a wary disbelief. His hand reaches up to press against his temple as if by that mere gesture alone it would restore normality. As if that ever worked in the slightest bit...

The corner of his mouth twitches slightly, and he

Harry...

Are you crazy again? I still have the cricket bat and I will hit you with it.

Should I start cooking now? Or is this going to be one of those crazy periods that last for-eh-ver and--well in that case I should probably still start cooking now.

Don't eat me, K? I'll tell my friends to put on their shirts.

[feellikejumping]

..... what?

[mghtbconcussed]

..Great. It's a crazy curse where you don't remember me.

Also? Hair dye? I liked the blond.

[feellikejumping]

There's got to be some sort of mistake, Miss.

[mghtbconcussed]

Or the stupidest curse ever. You look like Harry. You sound like him... Sort of.

I'm Lucy. Who are you?

[feellikejumping]

Sam. Sam Tyler.

[mghtbconcussed]

Okay so you're new here. I would have noticed you earlier.

Did everyone tell you what the deal is?

[feellikejumping]

... the deal?

[mghtbconcussed]

About the City?

[feellikejumping]

Let me guess. Visiting hours from 5-7, group therapy twice a day, and lights out at nine pm sharp. No exceptions.

[mghtbconcussed]

No but group therapy and visiting hours could be fun.

You're stuck here. No lights out. No exceptions.

[feellikejumping]

And what do I 'ave to do to get out of this... [He gestures wildly about for a brief moment.]...'place'. Does good behavior give us a 'get of jail free' card?

[mghtbconcussed]

Okay I'll back it up, rewind and reverse. It's probably a cultural thing.

[She talks extra slow and attempts to use a very bad British accent that Harry has been sort of teaching her]

You can't leave, Mate.

And I don't know. I never asked. Besides good behavior isn't much fun.

[feellikejumping]

[Sam rolled his eyes, but kept from saying anything overtly rude to the young lady on the other end of the device.]

Alright... so I'm stuck here for now. So what now? Is there a police service in the area?

[mghtbconcussed]

[Oh good! Polite people make life much easier]

Yup! Police station. It should show up on your map on your device.

[feellikejumping]

Oh, thank God, an upgrade... So that's why.

[He lifts the device to his face so that he can examine it more closely.]

Honestly, I didn't think I'd get a result just by asking.
