Bang Bang Bang, Boom Boom Boom

Previously on the Superfriends-

Mandy is furiously trying to open a can of tuna for dinner. Rohan walks in, sees what his wife is making for dinner and calmly turns around and walks out.

At the Peters/Robinson bungalow, Christy throws another log on the fire and Brian saunters up to his lovely and massages her feet. Christy muses, "these are the days!" Brian retorts, "yes these are the days!" Brian exhales in the majesty of the night but is interrupted by the smoke of the fireplace. Christy frantically checks to see if her mate is ok to which Brian shakes off any ill effects and proceeds to lotion up his wife's feet.

Voodoo Child by Jimi Hendrix rips through the Superfriends studio and Brian is already in full show hosting duties.
Brian points to Mandy to be ready, nods at Christy as she drinks her coffee and fake football tosses with Troy. Seems like the crew is 100% ready to go.
Mandy interjects: Brian, why did you point at me?
Brian smacks his head
Troy: because you dope, he's making sure we're ready to go.
Mandy: don't call me a dope you long haire.......
Brian: knock it off you two..
Christy spins in her new chair that Brian bought for her, unknowingly spalshing coffee all over her computer screen.

Brian looks at everyone and wonders where he went wrong.

Mandy: are we doing Mandy's minute today?
Brian: maybe, but I thought we would go around the room and see what everyone got for Christmas this year?
Christy is hurriedly cleaning coffee off her computer. Troy is flipping through ESPN.
Mandy: well, I can see the respect oozing from everyones pores.
Brian: Mandy, I'll let you go first on presents received this year.
Mandy: ok, I got a watch, shoes, and a scarf from Rohan.
Troy goes next: Becca got me a Harley Davidson golf hat and bag, and game tickets to a Dallas Stars game.
Christy: I got fro my man, an Ulta gift card, scarf, sweater, tool box and 2 brand new kittens.
Mandy: he got you 2 new kittens......?
Brian: Mandy, lets let everyone finish ok!
Mandy gives Brian the #1 salute.
Brian: my hot got me; a new shirt, a pullover sweater, a treasure chest to put grandma goodies in and a DNA kit.
Troy: a DNA kit?
Mandy: does she not think you belong to your parents??
Christy: geeze you guys, it's a cool new thing called 23andme. You spit in a tube, send it off and it gives you results of your ancestry.
Troy: weird!
Brian: I like it thank you very much. we're not done though, we have our show gifts to unveil.
Christy: do we have too?
Mandy is giggling and clapping hands at the thought of receiving gifts.
Brian: yes my love, we must. I had Mandy, Mandy had Christy, Troy had me, Christy had Troy.
Troy whips out his gift for me and it's suite tickets to the upcoming Stars game.
Brian: wow, dude, thanks for thinking of me!
Troy: well, actually they're from  my work.
Brian schlumps in his chair.
Troy opens his gift and it's a Harley Davidson can opener.
Troy already puts it to use and cracks open a beer.
Christy opens her gift and it's a kitten bed for her new kittens.
Brian rejoices, thinking that the kitten bed won't be in the master bedroom with them while they sleep.
Christy already is drawing a map of where to put the kitten bed in the master bedroom.
Brian schlumps even further in his chair.
Mandy opens her gift from Brian thinking that it's going to be anything but something tuna. Mandy unwraps said gift and is amazed that it is a candle. (not knowing it's a tuna scented candle.)

Everyone fake smiles and side hugs all.
Troy is wearing his Harley can opener out.
Brian is rubbing his hands together for the Stars game. (not knowing its on opening night of the Star Wars film)
Christy has already raced home and has placed the kittens, named Bevo and fluffy, in the kitten bed on their masterbed. She neatly places them on Brian's side of the bed.
At home, Mandy lights her candle, basking in the glow of a non tuna gift this year from Brian. Rohan walks in and wonders what in the world that smell is?
Rohan: what is that sme....?
Mandy rushes over to the candle and takes in a deep whiff of the candle and is disgusted to find out it is indeed a tunafish scented candle. She shakes her fist up to the heavens and claims, "Brian, I'll get you for this!"

Join us next time on the Superfriends, as we celebrate our 8th year on the (fake) air. Will Mandy get even with Brian? Will Troy overuse his can opener? Will Christy get to keep the kitty bed in their bed? (*spoiler alert* answer is yes, always yes) And finally, will Brian choose going to see Star Wars or going with his long time bud and see the Stars game?

Til then, carry on and look to the heavens!
