Time for Fred to Make a Wish

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 71729

Fred still had the bottle. [71542] Alexis knew that she hadn't the strength to wrest it back from him. And even if she somehow did, that stupid rule that only males could make wishes would mean that she couldn't use it. [71488] So she lay on the sand where she had finished at the end of her tussle with Fred, and glowered at the two men.

As he watched the jolly capering of the hotties, some sixth sense made Robert turn round. He saw Alexis glaring balefully at him. Though it seemed that she was powerless to do any real harm, it made him feel uncomfortable. Perhaps it was time for a second outing for the wish that had worked so well on Fred?

"I want you to make your first wish, Fred," he said.

"Of course, Robert. What shall it be?"

"I want you to wish that Alexis thinks that I'm wonderful and always right."

"As indeed you are."

"Of course, but she regrettably fails to realise that."

"Should I make the same wish for Astra as well?"

Robert's conceit saved Astra. "No. She loves me really. She's just playing hard to get. I wouldn't want to deprive myself of the thrill of the chase. Besides, it would be better to keep two wishes in reserve."

  1. Fred makes the wish successfully.
  2. Fred gets the wish the wrong way round. As a result Robert thinks that Alexis is wonderful and always right! So at least in theory, Alexis can now tell Robert to tell Fred to make two wishes of her choice.
  3. In desperation, Alexis picks up a small rock and throws it at the bottle clutched in Fred's hand, hoping to destroy both it and the genie. By a total fluke, her aim is true and the bottle shatters.
  4. Meanwhile, how is Astra getting on in her attempt to contact Zerm? [71572]
