The Wednesday @ 22:00h Show Theme Song

I'm coming from both sides now,
Though the monotone will not see,
That dynamics are different and
Things have changed dramatically.

I slowly keeping up with my duties,
Though stopping to look only puts me behind.
Introspection is a nasty hold-backer
Though its intentions are not unkind.

     And it's alright,
     What I'm really doing I don't know.
     But maturity has to set in sooner or later
     On the Wednesday @ 22:00h Show.

Customer service was enjoyable yesterday,
The insults weren't that bad either.
If the realm from which they were produced
Represents a scale which includes brother.

The sun is hot but we all know here
That it's really the humidity.
My bum's been kind but I'm just waiting
For the inevitable itchi-ness.

     But it's alright,
     With the millenium on the go,
     We'll have to learn to live with what we've got,
     Like the Wednesday @ 22:00h show.

     And Danny and Eddie are here with their instruments
     On the Wednesday @ 22:00h Show.

     And I hope I have a live ‘cause I'm sure testing it's boundaries
     Outside the Wednesday @ 22:00h Show.

The Wednesday @ 22:00h Show Radio Play Theme Song

This is the next installment of the Wednesday @ 22:00h Show Radio Play.
Things are quickly coming to a head.
Someone might just yell out "code red!"

It's getting personal.

Aftre has lost all his trust, he's thinking back to the time that Harold almost made him bust.
"How could someone who could do that,
Don so quickly a quite different hat?"

Why don't you tell me Abb?

Stacy's letting it all hang out she's prepared to make the first move.
But will it be legitimate?
Is her minding verifiably set

on revealing her deep thoughts?

Jeff seems quite content now to let things go in the directions they are now.
I guess he was always the same guy,
Who in the beginning sense he did deny

until things got absurd.

Oh Wendy played by me you are so pretty and so caring.
Do you think things will all be revealed,
Or will the characters' fears always adhere

To an independant life?

Harold deserves a space I know but I just don't want to go over bored,
Songs are nice except when they're overbearing,
And shoot me but I am much too caring

to allow overindulgence.

To allow overindulgence.

Stacy- Well, if you all recall, after dedicating my life to thoughtlessness and obtaining many rich and powerful friends, I realized thatI hadn't a place to stay. Upon that realization, I decided- though in my state of thoughtlessness, I don't know how I could have decided anything- that the thoughtless life wasn't for me. So, I began to think, and in doing so, I forgot about the plant I was supposed to take care of for one of my rich and powerful friends. This all happened in Elliot Lake- where I met you and Wendy, Agielissening. When the plant died through neglect, I fled the city, wandering around, covering my tracks as best I could, until I ended up here, in this city and called you guys in hopes of being able to stay for a little bit.

Harold- And so Jeff was hired by your rich and powerful friend to find you?

Stacy- Exactly.

Jeff- Wow, that's an exciting story!

Aohfids- You mean the man-

Stacy- -woman-

Afdiho- -who hired you, didn't tell you why he wanted to find Stacy?

Jeff- Well, to tell you the truth, I had forgotten everything until now.

Harold- Well, that's not good form for a private investigator, is it?

Jeff- On the contrary, it's why I am so sought out within my profession. You see, when I'm given a case, I relate the important facts to myself through self hyptnosis, causing my conscious mind to forget them until It's reminded of them- usually by my client. This way, only my subconscious is aware of my ulterior motives which are in no way intimated through my daily interactions. Everything I do is subconsciously motivated, sending me in the direction which will most efficiently complete the task given me. And the task is no way inferable by my outward actions which only ever try to make sense of the actions I take as a consequence of my uterior motives.

Harold- Incredible.

Aohis- Wendy, since you can look into other people's souls, why didn't you warn her?

Wendy- Well you know I think I said this before in a different context you know but I think I should say it again so that I'm only seen a certain way and not another but you know when one sees another's soul you know there are so many different thoughts depending upon the realm and when I say "realm" I mean personality in which you view that person you know so I did see that scenario you know but I did amongst others you know so it would be like calling the police on someone because you know their a cokehead because you've seen them sniffle a lot but you know it was only ever a cold you know but now I'm sleepy again like in the pst so you know I think things...are...starting...to... (SNORING)

Harold- There's one thing I'm still confused about, Stacy. What was so important about this plant that this guy wants you so badly?

Stacy- Well that's the weird thing. I don't know. It just looked like a normal plant to me.

Aouer- Maybe Jeff knows.

Jeff- I may, but I don't remember if I do.

Harold- Why don't you try self-hypnosis again?

Stacy- Ya, I'd really like to know what the big deal was about this plant.

Jeff- Well, there might be a problem there.

Harold- What problem?

Jeff- Well, when I hyptnotise myself, I encode certain facts that are only pertenant once I crack the case, to be unlocked only when I have completed it. So, I couldn't tell you anything about the importance of the plant until I brought Stacy into my client- assuming I even know anything about it.

Stacy- Well, isn't there a way to get around that?

Anbvdi- Ya. Wendy already knows part of the truth, so she can jst go to that realm within Jeff's subconscious where all the information is stored. Right, Wendy?...(SNORING) ... Wendy!

Wendy- Wha! What? Oh you know I think I was sleeping you know and I must have because there exists two punctuations at the beginning when you know usually there's none and so I can't have known what I was doing which must mean that I was either sleeping or sober you know the latter can't be you know because my mother always said consistency is the corner stone to stability you know but did I spill my drink?

Aiohxc- Wendy, I was saying that since we know some of the facts which we wnat to reveal in Jeff's subconscious, you could look into his soul, find them, and relate the other related facts that we don't know.

Wendy- Well you know I could try that you know but you know I'd have to be Jeff because I can observe all the other possible facts you know but only Jeff know which are important if only subconscious you know.

Harold- So, is there a way that you can be Jeff?

Jeff- No there isn't. Because if you recall "Jeff", you are already "Jeff".

Harold- You gave up that plan, remember?

Jeff- Oh, ya. Well, why don't we just call Wendy "Jeff", and then she will be "Jeff".

Stacy- It's not that easy, Jeff. We want her to be you.

Jeff- So why don't we just call her "you"?

(LAUGHTER)

Acnvso- Shut up, Jeff.

Wendy- Well you know there is a way you know I could do it and my "it" I mean that-about-which-we-have-been-discussing you know but it's very dangerous to both Jeff and I.

Harold- But I really want to know what's so important about that plant that died that Jeff was hired to find it's killer.

Aincvd- Maybe it was just a whim of this very powerful and rich woman.

Stacy- But don't you want to know for certain, Acureeus?

Azoieh- Not if it means danger to my wife.

Harold- She's my wife, Aforge.

Alosih- Let's not get into this until later, alright Harold?

Jeff- Well, what will we have to do, Wendy?

Wendy- Well you know first you know you have to give yourself up you know which doesn't necessarily mean that you can get you back you know and of course I have to enter what once was you you know and that doesn't mean that I can return if you know what I mean.

Jeff- So both of us could be lost forever? To where?

Wendy- I don't know.

Jeff- Well, that doesn't sound too scary. Let's do it. Come on, Wendy, let's live on the wild side for once. Come on, what do you say?

Wendy- Well...
