[It's up to the first poster to come up with a set up, and then each following post will either complete it or fill in the blank(s). And, as always, whoever posts the set up is certainly allowed to post their own completion/fill in as a follow up.]

Fill in the blank: All of a sudden Gabriel became quite pleased with himself because he had a scathingly brilliant idea: ________!!"

He would report the family to the state for running a lottery without a permit.

The state agency that I worked for used to issue those permits. There were huge penalties to be paid to the state for operating without the proper permit. And federal consequences as well, if taxes were not paid. Scarier than anything Brutus ever came up with.

The Lucy and Ethel episode where they invent a fake charity to finance a trip to Europe is actually pretty accurate.
-
([pointing-up] Believe it or not, I don't remember that one...)

The name of their fake charity is The Ladies Overseas Aid. Lucy's typical logic is that they are ladies who want to go overseas and they definitely need aid.
-
([pointing-up] Yes, that's typical Lucy!! [easter_grin])

Yep, and Lucy never seems to learn her lesson, does she? Rather like Barnabas, in some ways, though Lucy is a lot funnier along the way.
-
([pointing-up] Yes, Barnabas is rarely intentionally funny, mostly unintentionally!! [easter_rolleyes])

If Barnabas had presented Josette with a music box that played Babalu, it would have been all over.🎶🎶🎶

([pointing-up] Can you even imagine?! [stfl])

That would have made an interesting skit for The Collinsport Players .

(Yes! If only!!)

Oddly enough, I did have an idea of a skit where Josette would have developed multiple personalities. One, I think, was going to be Cyndi Lauper and one of the others was going to be Lucy Ricardo. She was going to be convinced that Fred and Ethel were Leviathans but Ricky/Barnabas wouldn't believe her. It never got any further than a few loose ideas and I think that the skits are finite at this point anyway.

escaping by digging a hole, and taking a wrong turn at Albuquerque

[laughing4] Good one!! [cheers]

(Too bad because it sounds like it could have been hysterically funny!!)
-
It could have been fun but I think that Josette, Lucy, Cyndi and whatever the third personality was going to be would have to have been played by four different actresses. Biological females, of course. I didn't want anyone who was, to be polite, uterine challenged.
-
([pointing-up] I can understand!!)
-
It was kind of acceptable for a guy to play Julia in the skits but I didn't want to drag cast all the female roles.
-
([pointing-up] No. [nodno])
-
Though some others who came along later would disagree.
-
([pointing-up] And I suspect I know who you mean...)
-
I'm sure that you do.
