Day 18 on Survivor Island

[Kim sits on the deserted beach, her earlier conversation with Marlena running through her head. The more she replays it, the more frustrated she becomes, leaving her angry enough to kick a cow.]

Well, this is just wonderful! On an island that is currently home to two not-so-dead people, a snot-on-canes with a bladder control problem and a penchant for women's clothing, a talking blue squirrel, and a mad 'forker', Marlena feels she needs to be concerned about me??? If that doesn't burgle the barrel, I don't know what does! [She pauses long enough to actually burgle the barrel...er, crate, looking for one of the Hershey bars.

Confessional *Brady Black*

(A wet and shivering Brady lunges forward from the darkness. The only blue that remains are the bruises on his face and arms as well as the blue sticks he calls canes.)

Hey, Bob, any chance you have a towel handy or something? I had to take an unexpected dip in the lake to clean myself up from that blue nail stuff as well as...well, let's just say my encounter with my father wasn't quite the father/son reunion I'd hoped for.

I don't know that the hell my Dad was so pissed off about. So I called his wife a few names. It's not as though I kicked a cow. (Smirks) Hey, I did kick a cow once. Actually, it was more than a kick, but that's a long story...(Scowls) Now though, I couldn't kick a cow even if I wanted to, thanks to Doc and her trigger-happy ex-husband.

(Squinting)Ya know, speaking of kicking a cow, I'm the one who's been taking all the abuse around here! From dear old Doc, my Dad, Sam, Laura, Craig...I think it's time for me to burgle the barrel so to speak. And first up is that psycho Doctor Laura. I'll stay away from St Slut for a while if that will appease my Dad. But it's time to show the resident Wacko just who it is she's messing with. By the time I'm done with her, she'll be burgling the barrel all the way back to the Nut House!!!!

Confessional *John Black*

(John feels like he is dead. He can barely stand. That psycho Isabella stabbed him because he revealed his true feelings. He is worried that Isabella may go hurt Marlena. He has to stop that.)

John: I am too weak to swim over there. I need help.

(Suddenly, Gabe appears and tells John that he will help.)

John: Gabe??? Where the hell have you been when I have needed your help?

Gabe: I haven't been in that place. Really, John My boss helps those who help themselves. You have been so stupid the last few years that I had pretty much written you off. You* kicked so many cows*: Kristen, Susan, Hope, etc. There is only so much *kicking the cows* we allow before we realize that you are a lifetime member of PETS (PODS EAT THE SOUL). Now that you have awakened, I decided to help you* burgle the bugle* so that you can help your true soulmate: Marlena.

John: I am sorry for *kicking all those cows." I always had to imagine Marlena anyway.

(Gabe and John ride the clouds to where Marlena is. They see her washing herself in a stream.)

John: What do I do??? I want her so badly when she does that. Can you come back later? Gabe, are you listening to me?

Gabe: (Transfixed by Marlena) Did you say something John? Oh, John I forget you were there. We only get to *kick the cows* in my station. Goddesses like Marlena are for the higher ups. I keep thinking I should lead a revolution. (John Lennon's Revolution starts playing. John and Gabe both start doing the Funky Chicken.)

(They come closer to Marlena. Suddenly, they see that Isabella is staring at Marlena. She has the fork in her hand.)

Isabella: I will *kick that cow* and then John will love me. We will *burgle the bugle* forever then. Oh no, it's John and that pesky Gabe. He knows my true nature.

John: Come out Isabella and take that blonde wig off.

(Marlena sees John. She knew he would come. She willed it. She always could.)

Marlena: John, I am so glad you are here. Maybe your friend can take Isabella. I am sure she would enjoy having someone *kick the cow* with her. Then, we can enjoy ourselves. (Luther Vandross's "Love Won't Let Me Wait" begins to play)

(John begins to remember both one of the best and one of the saddest nights of his life. Gabe also remembers since he would spend his two-week vacation looking at Marlena. It was better than heaven. Neither one sees Isabella getting closer to Marlena.)

Isabella: I will *kick that cow* and all my problems will be over...
