Freddy Gee... And now you made me hurt myself again! You made me break my hand completely off this time Tina! But I don't care Darlin', because I love you, and you've got to let me EAT YOUR BRAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIINS! WHERE ARE YOU!
Freddy What's the weirdest thing you ever saw in here?
Oh, kid, I have seen weird things come and I have seen weird things go. But the weirdest thing I ever saw just had to cap it all.
Freddy Oh, yeah? What's that?
Let me ask you a question, kid. Did you see that movie, Night of the Living Dead?
Freddy Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the one where the corpses start eating the people, right? Sure. Wh-what about it?
Did you know that movie was based on a true case?
Freddy Come on, you're shitting me, right?
I've never been more serious in my life.
Freddy That's not possible. I mean, they showed zombies taking over the world.
They changed it all around. What really happened was back in 1969, in Pittsburgh, at the V.A. hospital, there was a chemical spill and all that stuff kinda leaked down into the morgue and it made all the dead bodies kinda jump around as though it was alive.
Freddy What chemical?
2-4-5 Trioxin, it's called. It was to kinda spray on marijuana or something. And the Darrow Chemical Company was trying to develop it for the Army. And they told the guy who made the movie that if he told the true story, they'd just sue his ass off. So he changed all the facts around.
Freddy So what really happened?
Well, they closed it all down, see, and the Army shipped all that contaminated dirt and all those dead bodies out. And they kept it a secret.
Freddy So how come you know about it?
A typical Army **** up. The Transportation Department got the orders crossed, and they shipped those bodies here instead of to the Darrow Chemical Company.
I thought you said if we destroyed the brain, it'd die!
It worked in the movie!
Well, it ain't working now, Frank!
Freddy You mean the movie lied?
