"Carrie you realize just  whose papers we have here? You'd better be  reeeally tricky when you  sneak them back to the guy."
What? Me run the  return gig? Why  not You, Big Guy? Why do I get  stuck with the  tricky jobs? Oh - and WHO, just who is it that has you,  oh great Phantom  AT THE BIJOU in  such a tizzy?"
   
 
"Who you  callin'  a tizzy Lizzie? Why you - you - "
"Hang on to your facade there  Phantom. The guy back at the  Lucky Shot evidently rattled your chains.  Admit it."
"Damn it Carrie. Ghosts  shake chains. Snow tires clunk around  with chains. Chain gangs get  notorious with chains. I'm of the  sophisticated apparitional variety.  I'm a classy dude, I am. I'm an  illustrious aspect of imaginary fancy.   I'm -- "
"Can the pomposity Phantom boy.  Who's the mark that yanked your  spark?"
"Why Carrie - you wound my pride.  And as an astute aside, you  metaphor practically as prolifically as he."
"He? He WHO?"
"Why Paul. The notorious Paul  Caracas.  InterNoir. Writer. Plot-deplotter. More a specialized savant as  solvent  than a generic go-by-the-book solver. Can discern where a crime  scene is  going before the brushstrokes on the canvas are even dry. Why  -- " 
"Now who's living the high life in  Metaphor City? Geeez Phant,  you're tellin' me someone called in a  ringer this quick at what's goin'  on AT THE BIJOU? You heard what  we  heard while we hid from Lieutenant Phillips' lowdown layed down to  the BIJOU  femmes. The mystery of the prone projectionist, bloody  bathroom, Cheezum  chase and balcony bash doesn't even have history  yet! All these  crazy calamities occured TODAY!   You're either way off  track at what  train of thought you're puffing at, or that's pretty far  advanced high  falutin' thinkin' on someone's part . . . I think."   
"I think I can. I  think I can. Whoops. I mean - I think  so too Carrie. Now, how do you  think you're going to smoothly get this  dossier folio back to the  Euro-feller before it's missed?"
Clevenger's exasperated sigh  passed  right through the Phantom's transparent left eye.

What traversed  though through her  transparent friend was apparently apparent to Kate,  on the other side of the  BIJOU's pass-through secret wallway. Despite  Lieutenant Phillips' charming  accented assurances of "All will be well  ladies, all will be well", this  was turning into much more than an open  and shut case around her spirited theatre place, AT THE BIJOU.  
What could possibly happen next and how were they going to get to the bottom of all these dangling dangers? It was half past time to make the call she thought she'd never have to make . . .
  
 
Harry and I sure thank*you kindly

Cliff*Hanger? Why that's no cliff'hanger (yet). (But  there were some clues.) The whole BIJOU crew is taking time off to  celebrate Mother's Day, (so we don't get yelled at). We'll be racing  back next weekend with ~ The Prints,  The Popper and the Preakness!
Harry and I sure thank*you kindly
for reading the weekend epic'sodes of
 our murder mystery matinee.

( So you  think my Mom will like a boat
 instead of a book or bouquet? ) 
* AT THE  BIJOU * 
Please      return  to next  Saturday's  Matinee
for    the next   gut-gripping  epic'sode!

SEE YOU NEXT WEEK FOLKS ... but ... be warned to ... be surprised.
Over-Hype? Me?
Nah, it'll never happen. But do know beloved readers that the cool gizmo which shows off three other great writers' writes in a kind of slot-machine roulette matchup to tantalize your interests is doing a kind'of flukey thing and you just may see three rows of three instead of the nice enticing one row offering.
Tell you what ~ You pick what you wish to see further and know I thank you for comin' round and being a part of the heart of what we all are here, AT THE BIJOU.
Glitches? Hell, they can work themselves out - I'm just glad I had this opportunity to tell you I'm glad you're around. ~ Absolutely*Kate and the fine staff of renown
This ain't no 'chain chain chain of fools'...it's cool gizmos and enticing gadgets...three's an absolute charm, Kate and Har.
Looking forward to Preakness right in Shoogs backyard fun!
Gathering libations for Black Eyed Susans...official drink of the Preakness for Sugar Shack CLINKS! Three Fangers, my bookie, is calculating my wagers for winnin' too!
Happiest of Mother's Day to the Hot Mamas At The Bijou!
I think the phantom has been up to his/her old tricks. I left two comments here earlier and they disappeared. I only remember part of one of them. We'll all meet back here.
I know it will be a ring dinger of an epic*sode.
Nice job this week Katie*Girl and Saaaaay, when you buy your Mom that Mother's Day Vessel, will it come from a Boat-ique?
Sugar, looking forward to a round of your famous Black Eyed Susans!
Happy Mother's Day Bijou Girls!
