The office door is locked. A man is next to the door holding a key.
Several parts of his body are covered with bandage including his head. "You
think you had enough nonsense for one day?" he says calmly.
Yes, I certainly do," comes my reply. "Now let me out!" "I can unlock the door, but only after you listen to us," says the man. "Each of us here is a figment of wicked imaginations. Many of us started out as ordinary person, just like you, and all of us were turned into someone that we don't want to be. The same thing will happen to you if you don't choose wisely." "What do you mean that you guys turned into someone that you don't want to be?" I ask. "Look at me," says Bobo. "Ever seen a purple gorilla before? How about a gorilla with a toaster head?" "You heard my name," says Bimbo. "I hate that name." "And I have multiple personality," says the guy with the Scott Chen name tag. "I can't remember which personality I am supposed to have at this moment." "I hate going about naked," says the woman with red hair. "I am freezing without clothes." She glares at you and swing her hand across your face, but it narrowly misses your nose. "And stop ogling me!" "As for me, I was supposed to kill a dragon, and strangers keep taking the spotlight away from me!" snaps the man in armor and stabbing the sword into an imaginary dragon. "Oh, and there is more than that." I interrupt the weirdos. "What do you expect me to do?" "We want you to help us with our class action lawsuit. We need you." says Bobo. "Why can't you folks do it on your own?" I ask. "Because if you wander out of here on your own," says the bandaged man, "you will undoubtly be turned into someone who you don't want to be or encounter a fate that shouldn't be encountered. If that happens, we will have to get someone else to help us. Here's the key. You are free to leave if you wish." I find myself holding the key to the office door. Should I unlock the door and depart the office?
