(This dream is typed long after the fact, but here is the gist...) My class gets to go on a field trip to another planet. We board the bus, all of us pretty excited, but when we arrive we find that the planet is mostly just a shopping mall, and that, furthermore, the people who greet us have many rules for us to follow while we are there... One of which is, no flirting. We break up into small groups and wander the shopping mall planet for a while, but soon become bored, and decide to escape. There is some (ill-remembered) sub-plot involving a mall shuttle, which we attempt to figure out the schedule of, so that we can take it back to earth. It is just a van, much as the bus was just a bus. We can't figure the schedule out, and go back to wandering the mall. Suddenly, though, all sorts of alarms go off, and our hosts, the residents of the shopping mall planet start chasing us through the mall. We jump over things and perhaps devise some sort of ping-pong ball weapon, but are eventually all captured, and told that as punishment, we must leave. Which is okay, as we were trying to escape. Then, the cause of our banishment is revealed. One of our classmates, Elvis, is led into the section of the mall where we are standing. He has a young woman on each arm... and he has been flirting. <Round about this point, I do believe I wake up from laughing> |
