Merlyn-hey guys, you see that?
The midget brothers turn around and look at the tv.
Merlyn-nothing. It seems my opponents don’t want to talk to me. Is it the rich hobo thing? Does it confuse people?
The midgets shake their heads in disappointment and put their hands up.
Merlyn-I’m kinda bored. I know who I’ll call.
Merlyn picks up the phone wired in his chair.
Merlyn-Hey bro. You want to do something. It seems like nobody is really talking much. So I got time to do stuff. Ok cool.
I’ll be back guys. Keep the food warm for me and you know where the roof button is if you need it.
A hour or so later Merlyn and Talon are on a plane three thousand feet in the air. There are a bunch of other midgets on the plane playing twister.
Talon-what are we doing bro? and what are they doing?
Merlyn-flying to California. What do you think they are doing? Playing twister.
Talon-why?
Merlyn-because its funny. Winner gets a stilts. Looser gets thrown off the plane before we reach Cali.
Talon- That’s cold. Should be fun. Anyway Cali?
Merlyn-Well I was looking for something to do an idea struck me. I’ll keep it a surprise to we land.
Talon-ha ok. I’m sure whatever it will be interesting.
Merlyn-and profitable.
Talon-really? Damn you have changed bro.
Merlyn-well only slightly, enough to keep myself happy and out of trouble for a while. I also figure you need a slight break. I know you’ve been busting your ass for this match.
Talon-well can you blame me? From the top to the bottom so fast my head spun.
Merlyn-yeah politics are a biatch.
Talon-Well I’ll change my situation soon enough.
The game of twister finally ends when a midget looses control and rolls off the matt. He looks at Merlyn.
Merlyn-What did I tell you would happen if you lost?
Merlyn points out the airlocked door and the midget bows his head. He walks slowly to the door as the other newly found midgets shrug. He takes a parachute.
Merlyn-hold on..
The midget looks on in hope but Merlyn presses a button causing a clear wall to come down separating the cabin. The midget chokes up a bit and opens the door and jumps out of the plane. Later on the plane lands in L.A international. As they leave the plane they are met by a man in an expensive suite driving an audi sport.
Talon-who’s that?
Merlyn-our agent in Hollywood.
Talon-What? What on earth for?
Merlyn-what else but for negotiations for our new buddy cop action movie.
Talon stands there in shock shaking his head as Merlyn smiles proudly.
Talon-and I was thinking some sort of circus or something.
