They couldn’t breathe. Red faced, sides clutched, and gasping for breath is how Brian found them.

“What’s so funny?”

“We thought up a new villain for Rage.” Michael finally explained.

“Yeah, he realizes that Rage’s power comes from his sexual prowess so he figures out a way to make Rage a virgin again and strip him of his power,” Justin replied.

They cast a look at one another and began laughing again.

“Rage gets rehymenated!” Michael exclaimed.

“Re-hymen-ated? What the fuck?!”

“Rehymenated!” They both replied with tears streaming down their faces.

Brian just shook his head and left the room.

“I'm going to kill him,” vowed Melanie.

Lindsay glanced at her. “The important thing is that Gus had fun with his father. It's good they're spending more time together.” Melanie snorted.

“Mommy! Mama! Let's go to the park! You want to go? Let's go now! Come on! Hurry!” Gus jumped up and down at the foot of their bed, talking a mile a minute.

“Gus, it's one in the morning. Aren't you tired yet?” Lindsay asked hopefully.

“Nope!”

Melanie groaned. “See? What kind of idiot gives a four year old three cups of coffee? I'm going to fucking murder Brian.”

“Should we check if he's okay?” Justin suggested.

“This has been pretty hard on him,” said Ted.

“It's so sad to see him like this,” sniffed Emmett.

“We should be there for him,” agreed Michael.

Cautiously, they crept toward the back of the diner, where Brian was wallowing in his misery.

“Brian?” asked Justin. “Can you hear me?”

Brian nodded.

“Are you okay?”

Brian shook his head no.

“Shit,” Ted muttered. “They really messed him up, didn't they?”

“Brian,” said Michael. “It'll be okay.”

Debbie, who was passing by, rolled her eyes. “Christ, all this over closing a fucking Starbucks?”
