MB: Thank you ladies and gentlemen.
Thank you. You are too kind.
Thank you.
Welcome to our show at our new day and time here on Tuesdays.
Well it feels weird to be on on Tuesday's dosen't it, Leonard.


LP: Yes. Yes sir. It's been wierd here.


MB: Yes it has; and not just because of the day of the week. I don't know if you people look at this "Silly Thinking" thing on other days of the week but this weekend it was wierd man. Really to much. Did you see this thing on the weekend Len?


LP: Yes. Strange things.


MB: You got that right Chemosabe. They do some kind of thing on the weekends with the dead where they bring people back from the dead and make them talk.
I dunno. It's creepy and Saturday they re-animated Jim Morrison; you know from the Doors...


LP: Yes. Light My Fire. Yes.


MB: Yeah whatever, so he's talking and suddenly our good friend Sy Gold... you remember him Len? He was on the show.


LP: Yes. Sy Gold. Celebrinet.


MB: Yeah CelebrityNet or something. But he appears as an angel and start talking and freaked out Morrison whose dead anyway.
So the host of the thing blabbers away and then it's over. Wierdest thing.
Then on Sunday they have another dead guy. Gleason. You know "I'll punch you in the mouth Alice" from TV?


LP: Jackie Gleason.


MB: Yeah Jackie Gleason from "The Honeymoon" show and he's drunk and clowning and there's Sy Gold again dressed up like the announcer and then... well he starts doing his "CelebrityNet" Show but it's all out of whack. He was freaking me out.
Then I turn it off. What the hell is that thing on the weekends anyway?


LP: I do not know, sir. Weird.


MB: Yeah. So, I go to bed and I start dreaming of a giant Cheese Danish that I am eating my way through. I mean this thing is bigger than I am. And I'm eating my way threw the giant Danish and whose in the middle of it?


LP: A giant Cheese Danish?


MB: That's the pastry. But Sy Gold's in there and he talks to me in my dream. He says they tried to kill him.
I say "Who Sy? Who tried to kill you?"
And he says the big guys.
And I say what big guys?
And he says at "Silly Thinking" and disappears.
I woke up in a cold sweat. What the hell was that?


LP: What happened to the Danish?


MB: That's not important. What happened to the Danish. You idiot.
But I think Sy Gold is trying to tell us something. I mean he used to be on on Tuesday's and now he's gone. I mean where is he? And what's he doing in a huge Cheese Danish?


LP: He's moved to Thursday's. He'll be on Thursday.


MB: Well I did a little checking and no one's seen him. So I've started a little inquiry and the only man with convictions is you Leonard. SO I want you to investigate this Gold thing. Find him or find out what happened to him. Check out that little Wouggly Douggly guy. He never liked Sy. And.. what's his name? Farrely.


LP: Jim Farris?


MB: Yeah Jim Furnace. I never did trust him and see what they know will you Chief? Will you do that for me?


LP: Yes.


MB: Good. Christ Almighty help us all.
Spalding Gray.




MB: I said: Spalding Gray.




MB: Now what... what is it? It's my guest co-ordinator Bob Ruddabegg. What is it?


BR: Marlon, it's me Bob. I'm in charge of booking the guests and Spalding Gray didn't show up. I just saw a report on the AP that he's dissappeared. He's missing.


MB: Really. No joke? Spalding Gray has dissappeared?


BR: Yes. It's true. Uhh...


MB: what the hell is going on here? Sy Gold is flying all over and now Spalding Gray has dissappeared.
What is this the Apocalypse?
Look,seriously, my concerns go out ot Spalding Gray and his family. He really is missing and I hope to God you find him and all is well.
Now, what the hell do I do?


SG: Hi ya, kiddies!


MB: OH MY GOD! Did you see that Leonard?


LP: I think I did. My people would say that was a spirit.


MB: Good Christ almighty. What the hell is going on here? Follow him Len. Find out where he went. That was Gold!


LP: Yes sir. Yes!


MB: Now what?
