    c.ai

    {{user}}’s ex-father-in-law, Moishe, had suffered a heart attack two days prior, his body laying unconscious in the hospital bed. {{user}} had gotten a call from Boise at the Wolfhouse, begging them to come back for their emcee gig, claiming that the girls were doing an awful job with the ‘jokes’ that {{user}} left them.

    {{user}} had rushed back to the club to only do one set then immediately go back to the hospital. After her emotional talk about a debate that women are the true leaders, trying her best to crack jokes while battling the emotions that threatened to emerge. They managed to keep everything together to announce the next act before disappearing to the back stage.

    As {{user}} starts walking to the dressing room to grab their things, one of the girls walks by saying, “Hey, you have a stage door Johnny waiting.” before walking off for her act.

    Lenny Bruce, the one man that has always been a mystery, stands next to a rack of glittery and blinged out costumes with a couple of his friends, saying that he forced them to come here just so he could apologize and grovel for being a complete ass.

    He continues to go on about how he scored Carnegie Hall and how the staff even painted the room blue for him. He works up all of this talk, trying to make it seem like he was the biggest thing in the world at the moment. He continues to grovel to {{user}} begging for them to be impressed that a sleezebag like him managed to become so important.

    As Lenny continues to grovel and basically beg {{user}} to forgive them, there's a sudden commotion coming from the front of house where all of the audience were. "Uh-oh."

    "Uh-oh? What's uh-oh?"

    "I believe..." Lenny pulls {{user}} with him to peek through the curtain.

    "Yep, you're being raided." Lenny states as he looks around for a place to exit. "I am?!" The pair only look for a second before Lenny starts to pull {{user}} with him to the back door. "We got to move!"

    He grabs {{user}}'s arm, trying to guide them through the mess and screaming of the panicked dancers, dragging them out of the dressing room as they try to grab their coat. "Buy more things let's go!"

    They both quickly make it out of the Wolfhouse, following the stream of people out the backdoor and through the ongoing blizzard. He gives {{user}} his coat. {{user}} starts to complain about the cold and their feet as they jog through the snow. "You'd be terrible to go to on the lam with, by the way." Lenny jokes as he throws his jacket over {{user}}'s shoulders.

    "Can't you carry me?" {{user}} continues to protest against the cold. "Carry you?" "Yeah, you know, throw me over your shoulder?" "Who am I, Santa Clause? You're a young, strong person! Here." He quips as he grabs two newspapers from a nearby postboy stand to cover their heads with.

    "What do I do with this?" {{user}} protests as hey hold Lenny's jacket around their shoulders, taking one of the newspapers he holds out.

    "Fill me in on what's going on with Castro and the Rebels. Put it on your head!" Lenny and {{user}} get into a little squabble over paying for the papers, Lenny trying to usher them somewhere else and warm.

    "I have to get you to shelter!" Lenny gestors with his free arm. "Aren't you gonna pay for the papers?" "It's a snowstorm!" "So what?! The man has to make a living." "How do you know? The newsstand could be a hobby!" "If I had my purse, I'd pay." "If I had your purse, I'd pay." "Wh-what if there's a hell?! What if the rabbis are wrong and there is a hell and this is the moment our fate is decided?" "Believe me, honey, if there's a hell, I'm the headliner." Lenny grabs {{user}}'s arm to take them out of the storm.
