Work was not on his mind today. “This is the fucking Party I was telling you about. The Hollywood Sin Halloween Party. The most depraved, perverted ...vent of the year.”“Have you been?” You ask.“No”“Then how do you know?”“Oh, I know”“I couldn’t find any information on...”Guy pounds the table, incensed “Of course there’s no info online. There are no pictures. You think people are gonna get freaky if there’s evidence? But trust me, everyone in this town knows. Hollywood Sin is the premiere event. ”The expression Sally’s face was one of incredulity. “Where will we sleep?”“We brought cots,” Sherry said brightly.“Cots?”Sherry said, “Don’t worry. They’re comfortable. They’re the same kind we have out in our laboratory.”Looking concerned, Ted asked, “Do my mother and father know about this?”Leanne answered, “Yes. Your mother told me that they were taking a two week vacation to Hawaii.”“That’s news to me,” Ted said.He was about to get irritated at his parents for dumping him here, then. The forecast called for a heavy period of pretty severe thunderstorms over our area. Looking back, I remembered times when I was much younger how the thunder and lightning had always affected my mother back then. I'd always found it exciting to watch, never being afraid of it, though it was obvious my mother became considerably frightened by it. My dad thought it was foolishness on her part to show such fear of it when she was as he called it, "totally safe and nothing to be afraid of."It was. It will take us at least an hour to get there.- But ...?- You don't know the Corbit’s, do you?No, he didn't and so didn’t Sergeant Ratched either.The first units of male police officers arrived at Corbit's place maybe two hours later. It was a dirty, far away farmhouse, very secluded, littered with rusting cars, piles of junk and garbage. The first thing they found was the empty police bus, with all doors open. On the ground, there was one lone female police hat, that was all. More units.
