You Must Escape At Once

Bong Bong Bong Bong!

Belle et Bonne had received a text message.

I wish you'd change that ring tone, said Marie.

It's Big Ben, said Belle et Bonne.

What does he want? asked Marie.

Haha, said Belle et Bonne. It's actually from Sweezus.

She read the message.

Oh no! she said.

What? asked Marie. What does he say?

He says not to worry if we hear he's been arrested for possession of a penguin pie, said Belle et Bonne. And he says that he's a nihilist.

For goodness sake! said Marie. We never should have sent him off to Victor Harbor.

It doesn't sound like Sweezie, said Belle et Bonne. In fact....penguin pie. That has Gaius written all over it.

Yes it does, agreed Marie. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Gaius made the penguin pie and was apprehended, and then Sweezus agreed to take the blame because that fool Camus convinced him nothing really matters.

Except Sweezie doesn't really believe that nothing matters, said Belle et Bonne. Or why would he have sent this text telling us not to worry?

True, said Marie. Well, it doesn't sound as though he's been arrested yet. I think you should text back advising him to escape at once.

Alright, said Belle et Bonne. And she texted: SWEEZIE YOU DARLING SILLY NIHILIST GET ON YOUR BICYCLE YOU MUST ESCAPE AT ONCE
