Wednesday story day again. Last week Frank had decided to release some of the hostages in hopes the police will give him a car to make a getaway. Frank told Ms. Sutter she would not be released since she was the only one who could figure out how to handle the situation. Ms. Sutter was understandably upset that Frank would still be thinking she was going to help him. That is where we left it so let’s return.
“Ms. Sutter. Don’t you see what a pickle I’m in here?”
“Sure Frank I see the pickle as you call it you are in.”
“So if I let the hostages go let me ask again do you think the police will meet my demands?”
“They did say they would talk if you released the hostages.”
“That doesn’t answer my question. Will they meet my demands?”
“Sure Frank. That’s what you want to hear isn’t it?”
“Yeah, that’s what I want to hear but is it the truth?”
“How should I know? I’m not the police.”
“No need to yell Ms. Sutter I’m just trying to weigh the odds is all. Okay, Billy tell all of them to go out the back. Ms. Sutter come with me to the window.”
“This has been done before Frank.”
“I’m going to show you to the cops. HEY COPPERS. I STILL HAVE ONE HOSTAGE SEE? SO GET ME A CAR AND NO ONE GETS HURT.”
“Okay, Frank they get the idea. You can let go.”
“Oh sorry. I guess I was holding your arm a little too tight.”
“So what’s next?”
“We wait. Hey, Billy you let ’em all go? Billy? Answer me. Where are you?”
WE HAVE YOUR ACCOMPLICE AND WILL GIVE YOU TWO MINUTES TO PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON AND COME OUT
“How did that happen? Damn Billy is dumber than a stump.”
“I guess I could have warned you about the possibility of Billy getting nabbed.”
“Well, thanks for not helping. I wouldn’t want you to get into trouble.”
“Frank I think it’s over. Why not put down the gun and let’s walk out together.”
“You mean it? You would face those cops with me?”
“Yeah sure.”
“Does this mean anything?”
“Like what Frank?”
“Well, like you think I’m okay.”
“Shut up Frank.”

Awww. This feels like it’s coming to an end. Though I guess Frank & Billy’s Cell Block Adventures could be next. 😉

Yeah. You can really only carry a story like this so far before people demand closure.

Okay, so their goose is cooked but they can’t go to jail.What now? 😮 Of course there will be charges but will the two escape? Is that possible considering this pair? 😀 😀

Escape seems out of their skill set

I know, and no-one going to kidnap them. Looks like a dead end but I know you have something up your sleeve. I’m holding my breath you know. ..

I so missed this yesterday! I don’t think it’s over for Frank and Mrs. Sutter. I could be wrong (and I often am) but I’m wondering if they have some kind of “future” together. Maybe she visits him in prison, tries to help him mend his ways or at least stay out of trouble. I’m not too worried about Frank in prison, but Billy … well … hmmm … it will interesting to see where the story goes now 🙂
