Part III: Matilda Finds Another Victim, and Boone Dresses Up

Cheating Couple Found Asphyxiated in Car, Chile Pepper Cook-off Threatened

by Jack Remington

Late last night, George Henry and Lisa Alcott were discovered dead in the latter’s car. The couple is believed to have died from carbon monoxide, due to the running car in the closed garage.

“The deaths appear to be accidental,” Patrolman Wendy Ackerman explained. “The couple was found naked and let’s say, connected.”

It’s unclear why Henry and Alcott kept the car on, except maybe to keep the radio playing while they were together in the car. According to sources, the radio was tuned to the Arizona Diamondbacks game.

“If you didn’t think the bastard was dumb before, you sure do now,” Mr. Henry’s wife, Julie Henry said. “And why would he have an affair with Lisa Alcott? The woman wasn’t exactly Farrah Fawcett, you know.”

Henry and Alcott were the organization and publicity chairs for the Goodnight Chile Pepper Cook-off, and their tragic and untimely deaths have threatened the event.

According to Mabel Kessler, the president of the Cook-off, the two left many details of the event’s organization unknown and disappeared with them.

“It’s a complete disaster,” Kessler said. “We don’t know which way is up. The posters? We don’t know where they are. And where the hell are the chafing dishes?”

The mayor has called an emergency meeting to discuss the future of Saturday’s Cook-off. “Giraffes, poop from the sky, a crazy potato burglar, and now no Chile Pepper Cook-off? Is this Goodnight, New Mexico or Florida?” the mayor asked.

The question is yet to be answered.
