No Day But Today- Episode 2
Airdate: 2-3-06
Written and Created by Princeton
Starring: Princeton as Himself
Redboobergurl as Puddin'
G-MAN as Colby Fairbanks

Open on The Turquoise Parrot, the fanciest restaurant in town. Princeton and Puddin' are having drinks and waiting for Colby Fairbanks, world-renowned yoga instructor.

Princeton: Puddin', remind me again why we have to meet this guy.
Puddin': Because, Prin, you work for me now. And when you work with Puddin' Parker, you meet all the high society types.
Princeton: But what's so special about Colby Fairbanks?
Puddin': Oh, wowie! Well, let me put it this way: if he tells me to "breathe in", I'll need an oxygen tank to honor his request.
Princeton: Do I detect a little crush action here, Puddin'?
Puddin': *gasp* Of course not! No, it's more of a pinch than a crush.
Princeton: Well, I think I better whip out an oxygen tank, because here he comes. (Colby walks over to their table)
Colby: Puddin', how marvelous to see you again. Is this that co-worker you told me about?
Puddin': Yes, of course! Where is my mind today?
Princeton: I think some questions are better left unanswered.
Puddin': Oh, be still! Colby, this is Princeton. (Colby and Princeton shake hands)
Colby: Princeton, great to know ya. Well, not that it matters, but I postponed a jaunt on my yacht to be here, so what's up?
Puddin': Oh, nothing, really. I just wanted to introduce Princeton to somebody up a little higher on the social food chain.
Colby: Well, I'm flattered! So, as far as the menu goes, I recommend... (Colby's pager beeps) Oh, sugar honey iced tea! Puddin', I'm so sorry, I've got to trot. But before I go, I want to invite you both to a live yoga instruction Tuesday afternoon at the Lecture Hall. So please be sure to attend. Ta-ta! (leaves)

Commercial Break

Open on backstage at the Lecture Hall. Princeton and Puddin' are waiting for Colby to show up; only Colby knows where their reserved seats are. Princeton is a little annoyed at Colby's behavior at The Turquoise Parrot.

Princeton: Gee, Puddin', I wonder where Colby is. I don't suppose he had to "trot" at the last minute?
Puddin': Oh, Prinny, please don't worry about that. All my friends are a little flighty; schedules to keep, massages to show up for. I know it's a lot to take in at one time, but you'll catch up soon enough. (Just then, a loud scream is heard outside). I wonder who made that noise? (Princeton and Puddin' run outside to find Colby coiled up in the parking lot). Oh, my stars, Colby! What happened?
Colby: Nothing much; just what we yoga instructors call "one heck of a charley horse".
Puddin': Oh, Colby, that's awful! I suppose you can't do your demo now?
Colby: Unfortunatley, no. But I was hoping maybe Princeton could fill in for me.
Princeton: ME??? But, Colby, I don't know anything about yoga!
Colby: Balderdash and a fiddle de de, my boy! Just skim over my book; there's copies inside. I have faith in you, Princeton. You can do this.

Commercial Break

Open on Colby sitting in a hospital bed with Puddin' by his side.

Puddin': Oh, Colby, is it serious?
Colby: Of course not; just a muscle strain. But, on another note, open up the privacy curtain and see who my roomate is.
Puddin': (opens curtain) Oh, good heavens, Princeton!
Princeton (laying in bed): The good news is, the audience went hysterical; I was great!
Puddin': Wonderful! Is there bad news?
Princeton: Only for you; they put me on oxygen!
Puddin': (laughs) Well, let me know how it feels; I might need it later!
