Fred came running into the office out of breath, gasping for air, "I just got a call, the Stench is climbing the outside of the Tall Whites' building!"
"Is he armed?" Donny asked.
"That's the crazy part," Fred answered. "Our informants say he bought himself a Super Soaker two days ago and filled it with water from the faucet behind his house just before getting in his old Mercedes and driving Downtown."
"So he's attacking the aliens with city water?" Wooley asked. "Billy told me the dude was wacko but not this wacko."
"Makes sense," Veggie said, "maybe it's not something in the air but something in the water that's making the Tall White Aliens so stupid."
"So should I have someone take the Stench out before he reaches the top?" Donny asked.
"Naw," Fred laughed, "He'll only piss them off. Let the aliens throw him off the roof.

"Maybe it's time we called his wife," Fred said, "got him reeled back in."
"Yeah, before he hurts himself," Wooley laughed.
