002 - Comic mischief
(Action - The comic shop - Early Afternoon - Open to All)
[Dexter's peering in the windows of the comic shop, looking desperately for his grand prize. A cream of the crop of comics in his world, something that would make him both filthy stinkin' rich and gain him the envy of his other friends (what friends?)... Major Glory issue #001. He'll dart from rack to rack, looking for it, but to no avail. Maybe he's just too short to reach it. Or maybe it doesn't even exist at all. Bother him?]
(Action - Later that day - 729 Anderson, front lawn -Open to all)
[One of Dexter's daily routines (which was awfully good at relieving stress), was to go in what he liked to refer to as the "laboratory" and work on some small contraptions using whatever spare parts he could find that didn't look particularly important, and toys from the Toy Store. There haven't been many huge successes. He's spent the past few days trying to modify a toy spark gun to give him some needed protection, but it hasn't been working too well. Perhaps he'd be a little better off working with a cap gun, but hey, he liked the sci-fi b-movie look. Figuring the lack of Dee Dee was finally getting to him, he moved his project out to the front porch, as it was small enough to do so. He'll just be tightening some bolts on a small mechanism, whistling a little tune while doing so. Perhaps the change of scenery was all he needed to get himself back on track.]
