Talent Show, Fandom High Auditorium, Friday Afternoon, 07.07.06

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!"

"It was a good choice. Good performance. All good." He rubbed the back of his neck. "Yeah, this is me being all articulate. It was impressive."

"Thanks. Again. I found the song a couple days ago and it just seemed . . . appropriate right now. I had to adjust the chords a bit, though."

"I'm not really the musical type, so I'll take your word for it."

Nadia shrugged. "I'm just glad I seemed to have played it well."

"You did," he assured her. "I'm kinda disappointed there's no more Entertainer workshops. Free drinks and a free laugh every week. Can't go wrong with that."

"Free detentions, too," Nadia muttered. "But it was kinda fun, wasn't it."

"Well..." He thought about it. "Yeah, detention with Veronica was pretty fun. And pissing GOB off was fun too."

"It did. And I wouldn't worry, he's pretty weird. I don't think you could offend him if you tried, just when you least expect it. But that *could* be a challenge."

"Probably a wise decision."
