Megan walked toward the kitchen, whistling softly; she had The Stars and Stripes Forever indelibly etched in her mind now, since she’d heard it at least three different times during the course of the parade. Oh well, better that than the theme from "Bridge on the River Kwai"! she thought, giggling a bit.

Frank, in his parents’ bathroom, opened a drawer and found the bottle of tablets he was seeking. He was just turning to leave the room, when Megan’s voice echoed up the stairwell and through the quiet house.

"Mrs. Hardy? Laura? … MRS. HARDY?" And then came a high-pitched, terrified scream: "Frank! FRANK!! FRAAANK!!!!"
