Karl rushed over and picked up the floundering shark.  �Careful, you�ll rip a fin!!!�

�Oh, thanks dude!  This is so COOL!  Hehehe�I�m the dude from Jaws!  I�m�the SHARK!  YEAH!!!�  Adam babbled, and he zoomed across the hall to make-up.

�Ah, at least one of them is pleased,� Karl sighed, straightening up the items on the card table.  The room then became abnormally silent, and like a scene out of a horror film, a shadow fell across Karl�s path.  His eyes went wide, and his mouth formed an �O� in a silent scream, as the shrimp flew at him.

Rather, as Paul flew at him.

Correction.  As Paul dressed as a shrimp flew at him.

�I�DO�NOT�APPRECIATE�BEING MADE INTO YOUR IDEA OF A JOKE!� Paul cried, strangling poor Karl, as they now both wrestled on the floor.

�But�Mister�Doucette�being a fresh-water prawn is like being the king of the sea,� Karl managed to say in response, turning purple from the lack of air.  �Please�sir�besides, you�ll have the largest part��

Paul let go and sat up.  �The largest part, you say?�

Karl coughed and brushed himself off as he stood up.  �Ah, yes, as I understand, you�ll be the focus of this video.�  He then ran for his office, scared of their reactions to what was to come.

�Heh�what�s his problem?� Paul thought, managing to stand up on his own.  �Time for the star to be made pretty,� he said aloud, putting his ghettotude back on, and strutted across the hall.

The group sat silently in the make-up room letting the artist do her thing, afraid if one said something, another would make fun of their appearance.  Finally, Kyle spoke up.  �This�this is ridiculous!  Guys, we can�t let this woman do this to us!�

�That banana is a crime, man,� Paul snickered.

�Oh, look at the little talking shrimp man.  The little shrimp man can talk!  Oooh oooh oooh!� Kyle mocked at him with his best Homer Simpson voice.  �Can you do a little dance, little talking shrimp man?�

�Yo, I�m gonna do the ass kicking dance in a minute,� Paul threatened, getting out of his chair.
�HEY.  Chill.  Paul, sit.  Kyle, can it.�  Rob said, glaring at the both of them.  �We decided to let someone take over the vision of this video since we screwed up �Mad Season,� and this is what she came up with.  She�s a professional, won lots of awards, so we�ve got to trust her.�
