“Alan Grimes,” said Constable George Harris. “I want to put that faggot in Urinal №3. If that’s ok.”

Desk Sergeant Richard Gough looked at the constable with a curious expression.

“What happened to the boy that was already in Urinal №3?” questioned the Desk Sergeant. “Did he die or something?”

“Yes… He died,” responded Harris. “Watson is history. I already incinerated the body.”

“Do you want to take care of the intubation?” Gough asked Harris. “Or do you want me to do it?”

“I’ll take care of the lower pluming if you cover the intubation,” obviously nervous, Harris said.
