Getting Back to Basics, Forever


"Victory dance time!" Dr. Freidricks or "Dr. Freak" as he was know by his colleagues, launched into a Michael Jackson moonwalk and ended with an equally Jackson-esque pelvic thrust. His assistant Enrico, walked into the lab just as the finale was happening. He merely shook his head, and kept walking. That's just how Enrico rolled. He had been "Dr. Freaks" assistant for five years, and had borne all of the good Dr.'s increasingly odd behavior with all the patience in the world. Dr. Freidricks, stopped his victory dance, coughed, and then rushed to Enrico blurting out, "ENRICO! I've finished it! My time machine is complete!" He gave Enrico a hug, and walked back to the time machine humming a tune like the whole thing never happened. Enrico shook his head and likewise went on his way as if the whole thing never happened. That's just how they rolled.

Dr. Freidricks had been working on this time machine in a frenzy ever since his wife died, he wanted to go back and stop her from dying. When his wife died, his behavior become increasingly erratic and even more bizarre. As time went on, he became even more obsessed with completing the time machine, until he had alienated himself from the world. A world that sadly, contained his pregnant daughter Jane, and her husband Bill. His crazed quest was over, he had finally unlocked the secrets of time. It was the moment when he'd see his wife again. Dr Freidricks climbed into the time machine. "Enrico!" He said as the hatch was closing, "Do me a favor, and kill my goldfish." With that odd parting request, and a flash of light, "Dr. Freak," was gone. Enrico just shook his head, and kept walking. That's the way he rolled.
