Sister Christian

Previously on the Superfriends

Mandy is feverishly trying to call Brian to wish him a belated birthday.
Mandy rings up Brian on the ol' rotary.
"ring ring"
Brian carelessly looks at his phone to see an incoming call. He sees who is calling him and silences his phone. Christy asks, "who was that?" Brian responds, "wrong number."
 Mandy thinking Brian has answered his phone begins to wish him a happy birthday.
*Aside* Rohan is spinning a basketball on his finger while looking longingly out a window.
*Aside over*

Strumming through the Superfriends studio is Jimi Hendrix's Voodoo Child.
Brian: welcome one and all to another edition of the Superfriends radio show. To my left right your right is my goddess of a wife, Christy. 
Mandy is pointing to her right and then left to figure out who Brian is introducing.
Brian: technically directing is the bro of all bros, Troy and last but certainly least is the tiniest of the Superfriends, Mandy. (Mandy has made it around the room pointing at everyone realizing Brian has made it to her name in the intros.)
Brian: I have worked tirelessly on another show to serve up hot and fresh.
Troy: I got something hot and fresh for ya! (Troy makes a hasty retreat to the bathroom)
Mandy vomits in her mouth.
Christy is dry heaving in her chair.
Mandy: can we get to Mandy's minute?
Brian seeing the need to get the show back on track, remarks, " yes it's time, it's Mandy time!"
Mandy: why did you say it like that?
Christy: he didn't want to tell anyone but he's working on his vocals for a wrestling announcers audition.
Mandy can't believe what she just heard.
Christy can't believe what she just said.
Troy can't believe what he just did.
Brian is beyond embarrassed and tries to get back to Mandy's minute but she spends her minute laughing and guffawing so hard she snorts and bellows continuesly.
Christy feeling bad for her husband leaves to get a cup of coffee and another doughnut.
Troy is fully entrenched in his recliner half asleep.

Brian: well if you must know, I was sought out for an audition with the local wrestling organization. Some executive heard the show and liked my cords.
Mandy: your cords?
Troy is slapping at the air as if a bug has awakened him from his slumber.
Christy renters the room with doughnut glaze on her lips and full on coffee breath.
Brian: yes, they realized talent when they heard it and want me to come down tomorrow night. I get to introduce Kevin Von Erich, he's one of my bigge.....
Mandy: we know, we know! I thought they were all dead.
Brian throws off his headset in disgust, walks out in a huff.
Mandy: wow, is he really upset?
Christy shrugs her shoulders and wipes the glaze drool from her mouth.

Mandy and Christy sit in silence, Troy snoozes away and Brian is left to his own confidence rebuilding.

How will Brian's audition go? Is he really upset with Mandy? Will Christy notice the doughnut glaze on her mouth? Will someone wake Troy from sleep? Will we ever uncover Rohan's need for acceptance in the arena of basketball? 
All that and more next time on the Superfriends...
