Fred Does A Selfish Thing

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 38271

Fred, thinking only of himself, threw the dog down toward the bottom of the bottomless pit, hoping to gain enough upward momentum to hoist himself onto the rim of the pit.

It wasn't enough. Velus yelped, but Fred didn't care. Air resistance, he figured, would slow the dog down to its terminal velocity, and since the pit was bottomless, the dog wouldn't hit anything. Fred, on the other hand, forgot how far he had fallen. At that depth, Fred would have had to ignite a Saturn V rocket. Discouraged, Fred arranged himself in his most comfortable free-fall position, took a cheese and bacon sandwich out of his pack, and ate it.

Suddenly...something happened.

  1. Gravity looked the other way. Velus and Fred were suspended in midair.
  2. Gravity reversed direction. Velus and Fred were propelled back to the rim of the pit.
  3. Fred struck his head against one of the ledges and blacked out.
