:57:00
Anyway, I don't
mean to babble...
:57:02
What do you want?
:57:06
I'm looking for an N. McCormick.
:57:08
Are you FBl?
:57:09
Sorry honey, but it looks
like you are shit outta luck.
:57:13
You mean there's no
N. McCormick living here?
:57:17
I mean we just put him on
a bus headed for New York City.
:57:23
I'm Neil's friend, Eric,
and this is his Mom.
:57:27
"Neil"?
His name is Neil?
:57:31
Yeah.
:57:35
I'm Brian.
Brian Lackey.
:57:50
So you still
haven't written.
:57:51
Big surprise.
:57:53
But Wendy says you're
doing okay, which is cool.
:57:55
I've been wanting to tell
you about this strange guy...
:57:57
I met 3 weeks ago.
:57:59
No, we're not fucking.
:58:00
Get your mind out
of the gutter, perv.
:58:02
He's not even gay,
I don't think.
:58:04
In fact, his vibe is
kinda weirdly asexual.
:58:08
His name is Brian Lackey.
:58:10
He lives in Little River
and, like yours truly,
:58:11
attends Hutchinson
Loser Community College.
:58:14
Anyways, the day you left...
:58:16
...your mom and I found him
literally on your doorstep,
:58:18
Iooking for you.
:58:20
He says you and him played
Little League together...
:58:22
Iike 10 years ago.
:58:23
He was the worst player on the
team, blah, blah, blah...
:58:26
He's full of
questions about you.
:58:28
But, of course, I
haven't told him much,
:58:30
i.e. about your
"line of work".
:58:33
I did say you were
queer like me,
:58:34
only because I figured
you wouldn't care.
:58:36
But now, are you ready
for the good part?
:58:39
He thinks that when you
and him were little...
:58:41
...you were both abducted
and examined by space aliens.
:58:45
How brilliant is that?
:58:47
But he was completely
serious when he told me this.
:58:49
Like you should've seen
the look in his eyes.
:58:52
So, what's the story, dude?
:58:53
Were you abducted
by a UFO or what?
:58:57
P.S. - Are your crabs gone yet?
