EPISODE: #1

(It is chilly bright Sunday, February the 25th of 2024 morning in LaFayette, Georgia.)

Pastor Nora Sunkist: It is a bright and beautiful morning, today. The beautiful Sun is shining, a bit of cool air was blowing in the breeze, and geese are flying up about me. For a second there, if it was not for all the crime on TV and volices in schools, I would have believed that this Heaven.

Harvey Gum: Hey there, neighbor. You seem to be in good mood this morning. What happened? Did the misses make a good cup of coffee for you?

Pastor Nora Sunkist: No, Harvey. I am just glad to here today on planet Earth. I thank God for all the troubles and terrible things that He has helped me through. Thank you God for everything that He has made it able for me to achieve in my life. I found that with a little faith and prayers that God has made it possible to do anything with Him.

Harvey Gum: I say Amen and Amen again!

(Meanwhile, while Pastor Nora Sunkist and Harvey Gum are sharing a friendly morning chat, weird stuff happens Pastor Nora Sunkist's 17 year old daughter's, Ashlee Sunkist, bedroom.)

Ashlee Sunkist: I can not believe I have do it again. Late at night, when my parents are in there bed going fast asleep, I put on my party cloths and sneek out to hit the town. Last night, after painting the town red, I still can not recall half the night.

Bula Sunkist: So, everynight, after your father and I go to bed, you young lady get redressed and hit the town without our permission?

Ashlee Sunkist: Mother, what all did you hear? What you think you heard, I can explain!

Bula Sunkist: Do not worry, Ashlee Sunkist. Believe it or not, I was your age too long ago. I do not mind you sneeking out, but just remember to be careful out there. I do not want to your picture on the newspaper, alright?

(As Ashlee Sunkist hugged Bula Sunkist, Pastor Nora Sunkist walked into the front door talking to himself.)

Pastor Nora Sunkist: Oh, I love talking with Harvey Gum. He is always there if I need someone to talk to and I am always willing to listen to his wisdom. We may not always see eye to eye, but we will always remain neighbors if not friends.

Bula Sunkist: Hey, Sweetie? Are you about ready to head on down to church?

Pastor Nora Sunkist: I guess I am about ready. Hey, were is our loving daughter, Ashlee? Is she not coming with us?

Bula Sunkist: I just came from upstairs checking on our beloved daughter, Ashlee. It did not look like Ashlee was feeling well so I kissed her forehead and she was burning up!

Pastor Nora Sunkist: Oh, my! I believe that Ashlee should stay home and stay in bed. Let us say a special prayer for her today in church.

Bula Sunkist: Amen!

(As Pastor Nora Sunkist and his wife, Bula Sunkist, walked out and shut the front door, Ashlee Sunkist really started to feel a bit sick. Was it because of the partying down in town all night or was because Ashlee Sunkist's mother was lieing to Pastor Nora Sunkist to save her skin. As soon Ashlee's sick feel went away, she discovered a phone number on her left wrist in black pen ink.)

Ashlee Sunkist: My word! Who placed there number on my left wrist?

(Will Pastor Nora Sunkist preach a good sermen? Will Bula Sunkist be forgotten for lieing to her husband? Who's phone number is that on Ashlee Sunkist's left wrist? Find out this and more on the next LAFAYETTE 30728.)
