...the sun porch's windows again. D'oh! "What happened?" guhs the Dolt as the three glance around the center parlor. The yellow walls of the hall and stairwell appear to have been repainted lavender, and there's some unfamiliar furniture littering the floor. "Where's Victor?" Patty wonders, for she is as stupid as everyone else on this awful, evil, awful, wicked, awful, CANCELLED! show and so does not realize that the repainted walls and unfamiliar furniture add up to the fact that some time traveling has occurred. Piper picks her way across the carpet and finds the familiar stuffed bunny from the previous scene on one of the unfamiliar end tables, only the bunny's now worn and grey. "Now where are we?" she grumbles. In an answer to that question that's totally not, a woman's voice shouts out off-camera, "Triple-word score!" A gentleman's voice immediately disputes that claim, and Piper, Patty, and the Dolt edge around the corner to find an elderly couple playing Scrabble on the sun porch. The woman's fabulous mane of glossy white hair betrays the fact that she's Old Piper, while the gentleman's previous appearance on this show as Mack Daddy Grandpa in Piper's Retard-induced dream world betrays the fact that he's Old Dolt. The elderly marrieds are playing the game with the Book of Shadows plonked down on the table next to the board, the reason for which becomes clear when Old Dolt querulously demands of his younger self, "How do you spell Zankou -- with a Z or an X?" They've rejiggered the rules so they can only play the names of demons they've vanquished, you see, and are using the Book as a dictionary. And sad to say, I think I'd kick both of their asses were I a part of the game. Javnah. Abraxas. Cryto. Vinceres. Raynor and Vornac. Clea and Corr. Gammill and Ludlow and Rowan and Orin and Jeric and Dyson and Malvoc and Vassen and Katya and Imara and Vicus and The Dread Bunyip and see what's happened to my brain? God, I hate this show.
