Gurgling Mind, Salt the Drain

In the above scene, we see young Prunella Souffle looking on at her new sibling, S. Morton Souffle, as he gurgles mindlessly in his infant perambulator. The Souffle parents have great plans for the future of S. Morton...
Thirty-Seven years later, we again join S. Morton as he now attempts to float away from the embezzlement scandle that has ruined his family, and his mind. Young nephew Neville Souffle-Snerts looks on at this strange scene; This childhood trauma will set into motion a strange personal odyssey which will end with an empty bottle of sleeping pills and an inordinate amount of clown make-up.
