His eyes glazed as he looked into the dairy

  • His eyes glazed as he looked into the dairy section. What did they put into a White Russian? Would non-dairy creamer work? Did they ever try buttermilk? At 3 am, his thoughts went
  • to sleep, leaving him truly alone in the long-closed supermarket's freezer aisle. Famished, he procured one of the eyeballs, hoping Sarah wouldn't know what a Baker's Dozen meant.
  • But she did! "I need me thirteen eyeballs sonny boy!" Sarah shrieked. He hated her. He imagined himself stabbing her in the throat with a frozen king crab leg in the grocery store.
  • He reluctantly handed Sarah the 13 eyeballs she demanded & wondered what he was gonna do with the one that was left over. It was pure loathing for Sarah that prompted him to shove

  • Inspired, they urged their audiences to vote in on the quick time events how the show should play out, calling themselves the "Dream Cast". It went over about as well as expected.

    In a deleted scene, what I was going with went on too long for me to make the point, so I cashed in on a retro video gaming era reference instead.

    So when Sarah rolled her eyes did she roll all 13 of them?
