I apologize sir,
there has been a misunderstanding, my name is Arcadia smith. Garth looks up at Arcadia smith as he he is holding up two
of her toughies by the scruff of their thick necks
Garth- I guess you are..
My name is Garth
My friend professor Lumiere recommended your nursing home to
me, you can see I am under a lot of mental fatigue and nervous strain.
Arcadia[to herself]- liar!
Garth- will you treat me?
Arcadia- why not? Come to my office…
Garth checks in to Arcadia smith’s nursing home as a
patient—
Arcadia- this is your room Garth , the room adjacent to yours is chief justice Galbraith
Garth- I hope he does not snore?
Outside the door Arcadia and Dr. helmet confer-
Dr helmet – I don’t trust Garth , it seems like a trap to
me?
Arcadia- how does it matter , after tonight he will be mine
, bring his I ID and papers to my room.
Arcadia studies Garth file- this man can do anything he
has contact in high places he has left nothing untouched,what an excellent
catch!
Helmuth- we have to implant the electrode in Galbraith
brain today miss smith
Arcadia-OK,helmet we
will deal with him first and later with Garth.
Later that night at a very late hour in justice Galbraith
room—
Arcadia- a mild sedative sir , prelude to the main
treatment…
Galbraith-OK get it over with, though I think it is all waste of time.
Garth is very alert and
on guard and overhears everything from the adjacent room
“ ward boys pushing a trolley? What is going on here?”

Garth peeps out in to the corridor-
Where are these devils taking justice Galbraith at this
time of the night I will follow them
Mr Garth ! go back to your room this is miss smith’s
order!Garth is accosted outside his door by
bouncer Dino.
Oh ! I think we have met earlier, how was my fist?
I am sorry mr Garth
but your walking in the corridors may disturb other patients.
Garth- it is fine my friend ,ta ! ta !
Garth returns to his room and thinks-“ it is not wise to
create another nuisance,I will go through this window and over the chimney
pipes to the roof”[he tries to unfasten the window]-
“oh! It is barred and the glass is also so tough, this place
is a prison!”
“to quietly sneak
past that sentry posted in the corridor and to reach judge Galbraith room
seems to be a difficult task, sooner or letter they will bring him back”
Garth peeps out from his room in to the corridor---“very good!
that brute is so deeply lost in pages of pornographic magazine , perhaps I can
enter judge Galbraith room without distracting him!”
Garth is successful in his attempt-“shower room in the
toilet seems like a good place to hide in”
Lord chief justice is brought back to his room after one
hour—
Dr. Helmut-“ he is coming to miss smith”
Arcadia- yes give him few more minutes then I will test him
for his loyalty.
Arcadia smith-Galbraith! Listen to me you will obey
whatever orders I give you unquestioningly, do you understand?
Galbraith-I
certainly do miss smith!
Arcadia – this glass contains a fatal poison called
hydrocyanic acid, I wish you to drink it!
Galbraith—for your good health madam!
Helmut- he drank without hesitation thinking it was poison.
Anew slave for life to you.
Arcadia- yes Helmut
and now it is the turn of Garth for our special treatment.
Behind the shower curtains Garth overhears them and is
horrified.

Helmuth- do I have to take Garth to the operation theater
now ,miss smith?
Arcadia- in half an
hour smith.
Helmuth- if garth gets suspicious we will have problem
dealing with him.
Arcadia- I will take care of that,Galbraith is asleep now,
we should leave him now!
Garth come out of his hiding place after they have left the
room-----
Oh! This glass contains only ordinary tap water, but Galbraith took it believing it was poison what mischief have they played on him
and what do they intend to do tome?
Garth returns to his room –“something evil is happening in
this house, but I cannot prove anything just yet,Arcadia smith and her friends
will come for me now”[Garth is in deep thought]
Garth [lying on his cot at Arcadia smith,s nursing home
“what are you up to now miss smith?asks Garth as Dr.helmet
and Arcadia smith come to his room
Arcadia- nothing to worry Garth! We are giving you a mild
sedative, part of our special therapy…
Garth – take that thing away miss smith, I do not need any
of your sedative drugs
Arcadia- donot get upset garth ,we know what is best for
you.
“I KNOW! NOT YOU!” says Garth as his hand shoots out and
grabs the wrist of dr helmuth holding the syringe ,in a tight grip.
Awww….. my wrist!-moans dr. helmet
Arcadia smith throws something towards Garth face---
Ah! Garth reels back and staggers on to the bed
Arcadia- quick helmuth effect of that spray I blew in his
face lasts only for a few minutes , give him that injection!
Garth gathers all his power in massive surge of
strength to maintain his consciousness
--“have to remain awake!”
Have to remain awake” he tells himself repeatedly as he
lashes out with left hook to the chin of Dr helmuth
Acadia tell your goons to leave me alone ,I am leaving this
place!, I am leaving now”—Garth snarls at miss smith and her gang of murderers
.
