The all too familiar opening chords of Europe's The Final Countdown sounded and after a short delay for dramatic effect, GOB danced out onto the auditorium stage. He pulled blue and gold handkerchief chains out of both sleeves (which was difficult with a hand still in a cast) until the chains clearly met in the middle underneath his shirt. A large burst of smoke appeared on stage and when it cleared, the handkerchiefs had turned into two cages of doves. One of the doves fell over in the cage, choking on the smoke.

Over the next couple minutes he disappeared cards, linked and unlinked rings, and made his cast say "GO GREMLINS." It was slightly more impressive than should normally be expected from GOB.

When the music wound down, GOB stepped up to the microphone. "Welcome, ladies, gentlemen, and others. Today you will witness the finest example of amateur talent you have ever seen. Unless they suck. If they suck, you should make sure they know they suck. Not just today. Boo them this weekend, too. They'll deserve it for making me a liar."

"Anyway, let's hear it for today's acts!"

"Don't get restless, it's just a little longer before you get to leave. To help pass that time in a way that won't make you want to pop your own eardrums unlike that last guy, Marie D'Ancanto is here to perform Gershwin's Someone to Watch Over Me."

Marie comes out on stage and gives a shy smile before sitting down at the piano and starting to play and sing.

There's a saying old
says that love is blind,
Still we're often told
'Seek and ye shall find'
So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind.

Looking everywhere
Haven't found him yet.
He's the big affair
I can not forget
Only man I'll ever think of with regret.

I'd like to add his initial to my monogram.
Tell me,
Where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

There's a somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he
turns out to be
Someone to Watch Over Me

I'm a little lamb
who's lost in the wood,
I know I could
always be good
To one who'll
Watch Over Me.

Although he may not
be the man
some girls think of
as handsome,
To my heart
he carries the key.

Won't you tell him please
to put on some speed
Follow my lead
Oh how I need
Is Someone to Watch Over Me
Someone to Watch Over Me.
