Well if this was really Dave's plan all along and now he's gone through the rehearsal in a dream, when he actually does all of this to his friends who are sending him into bankruptcy, then will this be an example of de ja vue? LOL

    Right, Beth, but if it happens again Rod Serling will appear off to the right.

Practice makes perfect. The dream showed him how it should go down. Now if only his courage holds up and he does not change his mind. I know that it will give him pleasure to end each one personally, but it would be easier to just pull the pin on the grenade and end it all very quickly, smiling as each one realizes what is about to happen just before it does.

    Nothing like a garroting to ease some built up tension.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Now that was an 'Oh Henry'! I'm hoping those pockets were empty or maybe he just had to 'live' the tale first in sleep before actually pulling the pin so to speak. The end brought a good laugh. Another fine writing from the 'fish'. Yes, I had to look up, garrote.

Well I love trick endings and I also love the beginning of this!
But payback is a b**** they say!
Well written but too short but nice sufferings!
...
Now in my state of New Jersey, they abolished the death penalty many years ago.
Yes as I believe in most of the states but is that the right thing to do?
It's a hard decision to cost the taxpayers excess money to support these fiends with Life.
Or to just pull a switch or inject the needle?
I think the decision should be done outside of the premises where the person is housed.
Sorta like voting for a new President.
Yes, mayor or governor.
But of course politicians are corrupt and crooked but they'll also get to vote!
This way everybody has a choice.
And, we keep God out of it and the state.
And, then perhaps Justice is done?
Thanks for sharing and as always,
Doctor Ricky 1024

Wow! You absolutely had me going there for a hot minute. Thank God it was a dream...or was it? Maybe he patted his coat to insure it was all there. You should write thrillers. Thanks for sharing.

A nightmare before the main event. This is inventive, clever, terrifying and shocking Bill. These incidents do sometimes happen and lives are lost and let us just hope he patted his coat to check he had picked up his sandwiches for lunch, love Dolly x
