Announcer:   And now ... �The Mystery of the Sphincter Murders�. Our story begins one night, as Holmes and Watson are returning from a brief holiday in Scotland. As the two men stroll towards their Baker Street address, we hear their conversation ....

Watson:        It�s good to be back in London, eh Holmes?

Holmes:        Indeed, Watson. Our stay in the country was a rest well deserved, but it�s always good to return  to Baker Street. (rattle of a newspaper) Ah, there seems to be a new game afoot. We may have come                back, none too soon, Watson.

Watson:        (a small laugh) What has failed to escape your keen insight, Holmes?

Holmes:         A series of murders, old friend. A string of deaths, that no one seems to have connected to the    same cause. It may prove to be a case, worthy of our return.

Watson:         Perhaps the thrill of the hunt will keep you awhile from the needle. (the two men stop walking). Ah, here we are Holmes. I can hardly wait to OOOFFF!!!!

Holmes:         Watson!? What�s happened!?

Watson:         I�ve tripped over something. Good lord, Holmes! It�s a body!

Holmes:         Yes, I see him, Watson, and it looks to be a case of sexual foul play! What do you make of it?

Watson:         You�re right, Holmes! This man has been rectally raped!

Holmes:         Yes, it�s another in a series of queer murders, Watson! Help me get him up to our rooms. This    incident on our doorstep will have to be ANALyzed. (door opens).

Mrs. Hudson:     My word, Mr. Holmes! This man has no clothes! What has happened?

Holmes:          Murder, Mrs. Hudson! A cruel and horrible death inflicted upon this man, by a
fiend, with no regard for human decency. A foul act of berserk passion, carried out during a frenzy of             violence. A decadent play of rampaging lust, that seized this man, in a climactic moment of terror.

Mrs. Hudson:     Looks like he�s been butt f***ed, to me.

Holmes:     Yes, that too!

Watson:     Where do you want to lay him, Holmes?

Holmes:      What!! Oh ... on that table. Would you clear it, Mrs. Hudson?

Mrs. Hudson:     Right away, sir. (sounds of assorted crashes)

Holmes:     Thank you. Set him down, Watson. (loud thump)

Watson:     A heavy asshole.

Holmes:     Indeed. Fetch that lamp, doctor. We�ll need to put some light on the subject. You may go, Mrs. Hudson.

Mrs. Hudson:     Very good, sir. (sound of door shutting)

Watson:     What do you think caused these marks on the buttocks?

Holmes:     I�m not sure, Watson. It could be scratches, from an unknown person�s fingernails. I�m hoping    that my magnifying glass will supply us, with some sort of clue. You may go, Mrs. Hudson.

Mrs. Hudson:     Very good, sir. (sound of door shutting)

Watson:     These marks lead all the way to the orifice.

Holmes:     So, I see. Great Scott! There is something stuck in the canal!

Watson:     What is it, Holmes?

Holmes:     A clue, Watson! A clue has been left inside this mans ass! You may go, Mrs. Hudson.
