[VIDEO;]

[The camera shakes a little, coming in and out of focus as she trains it on the bottom of a door. Small, pale tendrils are starting to creep through underneath it. The picture is jostled again as one foot stomps down on the little feelers... When she moves back again they're gone, crushed into a thick, gelatinous paste on the tile floor. From the other side of the door comes a menacing, deep noise that almost sounds like...

Quacking, actually. It sounds like quacking.

Cameron sighs, sounding surprisingly not terrified.]

I think my leftovers are trying to kill me.

Fine. [One word containing the complete phrase do you have any idea how frustrating you are. And a moment to try and shake that sentiment from his voice.] Try getting it in some sort of wok. Should make it easier to pour.

[He hasn't been sitting waiting at all.]

Leave any violent stains?

For now. Maybe you should get out of there 'til midnight, just in case the milk turns sour.

[Long pause is long.]

Maybe.

[Never say Chase isn't one of life's triers.]

I could buy you something non-threatening for dinner. How do you feel about fairy floss?

[Fortunately for you, Chase, Cameron's dinner plans have literally gone down the john.]

Fairy floss?

Um, [It's rare that he has to stop and correct himself, these days.] cotton candy? Only a threat to your tooth enamel.

Oh. [She pauses, and... okay, she can't help it, thinks fleetingly of monster trucks.]

Health food.

Better for your health than duck soup, right now. We don't want to risk taking on anything with too much fiber.

I suspect only things that have gone bad will go bad.
