A family sat at table to discuss the day's events and now the steps they'd have to take. This leads to some unpleasant scenes regarding indiscretions that their middle son had made. They fortify the house, looted supplies and burn the staircase out, to save them from the storm. A plan was hatched despite the murderous fog of good old fashioned shotgun wedding fever rippling through the town. To tunnel into fortress through adjacent neighbour residence and to hunt the bridegroom down. But - Landlord cries out "Listed building - inner walls are sacrosanct - you must try underground!". Clearly your actions and their consequences have reached me! You crawled into a house of flies and made a scene! I'd have to take your family name and throw it in the snow. From here on in you will be known as 'Unit of Judo'.You crawled into a house of flies and made a scene! Stay away from mirrors and don't fall asleep!

Unit wakes up. Although quite unwell he prepares to make good on a gentleman's bet! He walks to the depot and addresses the yard - saying "I'll be the last one alive of you". Yet there's a gloom on the town since his recent return. Steady as ever, Unit waits his turn. Our hero steps out on a glum constitutional, grimacing now as he walks past the well. Unit it's time you had left this place. There's no sense in your hanging around - the locals have taken offence at you and are digging a hole in the ground. If you speak they'll compare themselves unfavourably to you. That's not good news - and there's a spy in your house, my misguided old friend, who is set to sell out and deliver you. Safe for now - their hands are tied, but the second you set outside? Unit wake up there is much to do -and but two hours before the dawn!Just sufficient to settle your earthly affairs and show Langley Park who you are. Has breakfast and gathers a few treasured things. Writes to a daughter he's still never seen. Unit feels old as he poisons the water and is wringing wet hands as he walks from the well. "Safe for now, have cast the die - they're building toward the sky, but the water table's mine". Safe for now, your hands are tied. The second you step outside they'll set to on you the minute that you step outside! So long!

Unit's eyes snap wide open as the good Riley bounces along. We can't sleep on ceremony forever on the merchant 'Riley Morton!' The Captain's eyes are too close together. The true name of this craft is too long. It seems they'll be dining together, the poisoner and the sea dog. Right on time! Up and over the side - to wave, not to drown in the boiling foam. He's holding the stone. It's safe now to go all to pieces, as the 'sea's seventh seal' comes unsewn! Unit has taken initiative with ingredients of his own - an Hallucino-soupstone. If THAT's true, and Unit over the side, we're all in for a ride in the boiling foam, if he sank like a stone! Like any lopsided settlement, this sets a dangerous precedent. The sands could pack us down like sediment - a walk in wardrobe fossil record. A set dinner Archeopterex! Aboard the great 'Riley Morton' there is a dread wave rising. A bad moon to raise all boats. Painted up to look like meat and thrown over the side, then climbing hand over hand on a knotted mercy line. In other words, murdered then saved in the nick of time!

Advantage Zadok. One Nil.
