Couldn't help thinking of our favorite platypus upon seeing that headline in the Baltimore Sun (story's about the Kinetic Sculpture Race):

*grin*

I can see Daphs, Chaz, Nikki and Danny getting together to "pilot" one of those "kinetic sculptures".  (Hafidha, too, once she's no longer confined to Idlewood.) Not only would Chaz and Danny make an unstoppable get-the-thing-out-of-the-mud duo, but it'd probably drive Celentano right out of his tree.

Mom and Dad would naturally observe from the sidelines. Sol would pace them on his Harley, with press credentials dangling from his neck.

Chaz and Daphne would bribe Falkner's girls to help. And if necessary, bribe Ben to give consent. With cupcakes.

...mmm, cupcake bribery.

Frankly, I doubt it would take much bribery to get the Falkners to participate. And I'm including Ben.
