In Slip or Trip, Queenie and her husband had a big argument. After the fight, Queenie had decided to leave the house to go to a party down at the country club to have a few drinks with some friends.When she left the country club, Queenie had invited a few friends over to her house to have a couple of more drinks. When they arrived at her house, Queenie opened the door and said, “Something terrible happened. Arthur slipped and fell on the stairs. He was coming down for another drink - he still had the glass in his hand - and I think he might be dead. Oh, my God - what shall I do?” After an Autopsy was done on Arthur, it had come to the conclusion that he was drinking and he had obtained a severe head wound. Queenie is not telling the truth because

She got burned by putting her hand in a stove when she was unattended, and again, her parents chose not to take her to the hospital. Thus, Rosemary and Rex’s belief that ‘one child in the hospital is too much’ is a metaphor that reflects their lame and passive attitude towards their children. This scene also embodies/manifests the parent’s fundamental character flaw of not giving the needs for their children. In reality, similar occurrences are not uncommon as physical

“I’d lose it if something happened to you y’know?” says Becky as she’s wiping a tear from her eye. My mom comes back with some ice cream from the hospital cafeteria. Behind her was another familiar face.

Remembered as an amazing woman, her will and determination were unwavering and she fought her illness with self-respect and strength until her final day.

The fire started to burn when The o'leary was milking the cow and put the lamp behind the cow but then the cow kicked it over and the the fire started

“Right this way,” the nurse ahead of me was prompting me to a brightly lit hall that was completely foreign to me. I couldn’t help but be terrified by the sights and sounds around me: people chattering, machines methodically beeping, gurneys rushing past. It was my first time in a hospital and my eyes frantically searched each room looking for any trace of my father. She stopped suddenly and I turned to the bed in front of me but I could not comprehend what I saw. At such a young age, I idolized my father; I had never seen him so vulnerable. Seeing him laying in a hospital bed unconscious, surrounded by wires and tubes was like witnessing Superman encounter kryptonite. My dad’s car accident not only made him a quadriplegic, but also crippled

3. Michele imagined that the boy was his brother, when he realised that his father had taken the meat that was leftover from dinner to the boy in the hole. He

and with these words, the family’s fate is sealed. The grandmother, however, does not realize this and continues to plead with The Misfit. She states she knows he is a good man and that he does not look like he has common blood. Even as The Misfit proceeds to murder her family members one by one, the grandmother continues to plead for her life resorting to every tactic that comes to mind.

Cole.” Still in a foggy daze, she shot upright “What’s wrong?” A gray-haired doctor stood in front of her, “Nothing is wrong, I wanted to let you know that your student, Cassandra, is finally awake. The tranquilizer dosage, plus the...events of last night really did a number on all of them.” Cleo looked at the door and then to Thomas “How is he?” The doctor shuffled a little from under his skin “He is stable. In fact, he’s normal: brain waves, heartbeat, respiration, all normal. In theory, he should be running laps around me...” Cleo looked at him, she knew there was more he wasn’t telling her “Then, why is he still asleep?” The doctor took a breath and lowered his clipboard to his side “He’s not sleeping, he’s in a coma. It isn’t uncommon in traumatic scenarios for something like this to happen, but it makes their recovery time unpredictable.” She raised her hand to her mouth and stared back to her husband “You don’t know when he’ll wake up?” The doctor lowered himself slightly “To be honest, with as much as I know about psychic induced coma... I couldn’t say if he will wake up. Let alone when.” Cleo grabbed the corner of the bed to steady herself “Is there anything I can do?” He shook his head “It’s just a waiting game. If you really want to help, the best you can do is visit him, talk to him. Just let him hear your voice, talk about your day and let him know that you’re thinking about him....that you want him to wake

I was having my normal conversations with Allie as I usually did when I heard my door creak a little, I turned around to see my father sitting there with a puzzled look on his face and I was lost for words just as he was. “Holden”, he said pausing for a while to gather his thoughts, you do
