Last night I was watching Les Miserables in concert. This is my all time favorite Broadway show so when I saw I could Netflix it, I was in a giddy, child-like state. So Eponine has just died in Marius' arms and I'm trying to contain my tears when my phone rings.
Hello?
B, this M; the cleaning lady.
Oh, hey! What's up? (thinking: Why is the owner of the cleaning company my job uses call me at 8pm)
The power is out at the building.
Okay....
My cleaning crew is stuck on the 2nd floor of the building and can't get out.
Oh my God! (thinking: They can't get out! Gotta call security! Wait!....how are they stuck?) What do you mean they are stuck?
They can't use their scan cards to get out of the building.
Their scan cards? They don't have to use their scan cards to get out. They don't even have to use their scan cards to use the elevator to go DOWN; not that they can because there is no electricity.
Exactly!
M, across the hall from the elevator is a set of stairs. They can use those and they will end up in the downstairs lobby.
Okay; let me try to walk them out of the building. If I don't call back, everything is fine.
Okay.
So here is what I can't resist -
12 Mexicans are stuck in a building with a priest, a rabbi and a redneck.....
