*Caroline, upon hearing Jim's request, runs looking all over the house and after searching for about five minutes finds Andrea out on the west wing terrace.*
Caroline: Andrea!Sharon fainted! Jim has arranged for her to go to a doctor so we have to leave now! Hurry!
*Caroline looks at her sister anxiously*

Jim: “Yes, she’s already in. Let’s go!!”
They all cram into their Mercedes which hurries along a narrow road that winds downhill through the forest. The sun is beginning to set and the fog is rolling in. Mike, their driver, is doing his best to hurry them into town, when he is pulled over by sheriff’s deputy. As the officer approaches the vehicle, he notices its passengers and cannot believe his eyes.
Deputy: “The Corrs??!! My wife and I just love your music!!”
Jim (*opening the car window*): “Oh, that's great! Thank you, sir! But, if you’ll beg our pardon, my sister Sharon is ill and we need to get her to the doctor!”
Deputy: “You just follow me!”
The deputy returns to his patrol vehicle, turns on his flashing lights and guides the Mercedes through the fog into town. As they approach the town, Caroline’s phone begins to ring… Caroline looks at the ID for the call… it’s her husband Frank.

Caroline opens her phone(it is a flipphone) and holds it to her ear to listen.
Caroline: Frank! It is so good to hear from you.You will not believe what has happened to Sharon! She caught some virus and we have to take her to the doctor. We're on our way there now. How are things at home?

*Frank who actually thought to have a nice phonecall about how it was there in Asia is shocked*
Frank: OMG, are you sure that its right to go to some doctor you don't even know and not to go to a hospital? It sounds quite serious I think, she will need real treatment. Should I call you back later? it sounds like you're all in a hurry!

Jim peers out the window and sees only a dense fog. However, only moments later, the driver tells them that they have arrived at the clinic.Jim: Thank God!! Sharon is placed onto a gurney and wheeled into an examination room with Gavin following closely. Caroline, Andrea, and Jim sit restlessly in the waiting room.

Out a dark recess of the waiting room now enters an unfamiliar man in a black suit who resembles Rod Serling, stepping foward and clearing his throat... it is the NARRATOR.The Narrator: "Here, thou patient audience, before us is a family frozen in suspense and sorrow. Shall they remain here forevermore until their faces shrivel to mere skeletons, securing only for them offers to join the Grateful Dead on stage in San Francisco? Will the characters in this lamentable tale continue in the anguish of fear, not forgiven by Fate, but ultimately forgotten and neglected by the capricious gods of this RPG, its writers? Will Sharon, or her brother and sisters survive the ordeal? Shall they triumph over the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or, alas, will they be abandoned to dissolve into a dazed oblivion? But wait! I hear the sound of a long unheard voice from one of our characters..." The Narrator steps again into the darkness and disappears and one of our RPG characters speaks... PLEASE!! ;D

As Andrea looks around she suddenly sees a man handing her a cup of tea.
John: "I think tea is better for you, dear."
Everyone stares. Is it really John? But how did he manage to...
John: "Took the first flight I could catch. Travelled all night, just arrived. How is she? Any news?"
