Ringo stayed with George while John had left. Every once in a while, Ringo would annoy him by touching his arm and saying: Your cold. So far, it was working because he would do it every 15 minutes.

Finally, George's doctor came in and checked his temperature. "Yer finally above 96. Yer at 96.3. Yer slowly getting there."

"Thank god." George muttered.

"So, do you know how long it could take to get it up again?" Ringo asked.

"It varies. It depends on the person. With yer friend here, it's hard to tell how much longer until its back to normal."

"Eh. He'll never be normal."

George nodded in agreement. "Its true. I don't wanna be normal."

"I already figured that. But in all seriousness, I dont know how long until yer temp is back to normal."

"So, when can I leave?"

"Wait until you get to at least 97.5."

"Okay. I think I can do that."

Paul and John were at the scene of the other crime. Paul and John were talking off to the side when John's partner Morris came up to him. "Found this under the body." He said handing something to John.

John looked at it and nodded. "Looks like our George isn't safe after all."

"We already knew that."

"I mean, what I'm saying is, they might be using him for the grand finale."

"Okay. So, what do you plan to do?"

"Gotta think about that. We dont need anyone coming after him.......again."

John took out a cigarette.

"You sure you wanna do that?" Paul asked.

"Yeh. I need it. Why?"

"No reason. Just be sure to smoke that away from here so you dont contaminate the crime scene."

"Okay fine. I'll wait."

"Good choice."

"I will smack you. You shouldn't mess with me when I'm craving one. I will hurt you."

"Don't threaten me. We all know I'm stronger than yoj."

John turned to look at him. "You wanna bet?"

"Not here. Right now is not the time."

"Later then. When we aren't so busy. How much you wanna bet?"

"How much we talkin'?"

"You decide."

"Says who? Why cant you decide?"

"Because I'm not you. Yer you."

"Thanks for calling me awesome."

"I never said that!"

"Oh yes you did."

"I did not!"

"Yer in denial."

"Shut it before I smash yer face in to yer own car."

"Boys, stop arguing and get back to work." Someone a good distance away said as he walked off.

Both Paul and John looked at each other. "Fine. I win." John said.

"Says who?"

"Says me! I'm the boss."

"Once again, says who?"

"Me........again."

"Yer not the boss. Everyone knows that."

"I am so. I'm the leader in the band so it makes me the boss."

"Today, we aren't a band. So yer not the boss."
