Liberty's Sparkle (39)
"Liberty's Sparkle (39)"
Tom was vibrating like a 50 cent milkshake held by the hilarity of SpongeBob, squirming and moaning in wacky weirdness, having fits beyond bizarre, convinced he had a severe neurological disorder. Going home to Liberty and Spanky, he spilled the lovely beans about what the elderly gentleman had told him; next, the conversation ignited.
LIBERTY
Tom--he was just an old fool, probably.
TOM
But what if I'm going to get Parkinson's? It could happen. And you know about willing someone to get sick, and I know in my gut that Wanda wants me to die.
LIBERTY
Wanda wants everybody to die--that's just her thing; she's a wicked witch. Wants to rule suburbia.
TOM
Maybe I should call the doctor or check myself in--get institutionalized.
LIBERTY
And leave me baby, never. Leans over on the futon and kisses his cheek. Spanky licks him as well.
TOM
You're real swell and all Liberty, but I don't want you to watch me die--it will rob you of your innocent sublimity.
LIBERTY
If you are sick Tom, which you are, but if it gets worse; next, it's my duty as your wife to look out after you. We have to stick together. And if you think I'm so magnanimous and all; then, imbibe my energy. Drink it deep into your heart and soul. We can make it. You gotta believe.
TOM
Shaking. Okay, I will make the attempt.
