Fourth Floor Common Room, Wednesday Morning, WTF?

Rinoa absolutely needed to go over to this Happy Place with the dancing mouse and all of the rides and hats that everyone had been talking about. And she planned on making Squall take her, later on.

But right now, she was curled up in the fourth-floor common room, watching the ... absolute strangest movie she'd ever seen. It was like a trainwreck; she couldn't quite look away.

It was a disaster movie, but she couldn't quite figure out what it was that was supposed to be ending the world: the prostitutes, the ice cream treats, the zombies, the midgets, or the brass instruments. Apparently it was supposed to be the brass instruments, since they had top billing, right there in the title:

Death by Flugelhorn 2: Jazz Solo from Beyond the Grave.

This was a sequel? How did the first one ever get made? Why did people watch this?

More importantly, was there enough popcorn? Because she was going to stick to this movie until it made some kind of sense, and that could take hours.

(This was inspired by a completely insane Twitter conversation that started as "I misread 'comet' as 'cornet,'" and spun into madness from there. Fry said it needed to be a common room flick, and thus, it is. SO SO SO OPEN.)

"Well, yeah, of course. But there's an actual name for it, too."

He sat down next to Rinoa and stared at the television some more.

"Maybe the writer based it on a dream they had? While on drugs?"

"I don't think there's any possible click that could make it make sense," Squall answered. "It's too strange."
