[Mindy is in her bedroom. It's usually organized and straightened and not at all similar to a child's room in any way. Right now, it's torn up and Mindy is running around it, searching and frowning. She doesn't know the device is on and has been searching her room and pretty much the entire City for two days.

She knows full well the creation curse from the other day was temporary but still. That was an awesome backpack and she's still hoping at least that is still here.]]

...so stupid. I hate this place....pointless fucking curse. There isn't even a damn...

[And then a dramatic flop backwards on her bed as only a kid can do.]

That was an awesome backpack.

[Mom is tired and at work, but Mom senses Baby is in trouble. She's not even going to harp on the language.]

What's wrong?

[Best mom.] I drew a backpack the other day and it's gone and I was hoping the stupid curse would mess up and that it wasn't gone and some dumbfuck stole it.

[It'd be easier to deal with a thief.]

I'm sorry, sweetie. Curses tend to ruin good things like that. What did it look like?

[So very calmly.] It had a pink and purple checker patter and a fight-ready Hello, Kitty on it. And a ton of pockets.

Was anything in it?

[Somebody may be taking mental notes.]

No.

[This isn't the truth but she doesn't want to talk about it.

Okay, so just the bag. [Hmm. Well then.] Do you think you can draw another picture of it?

Yeah, I still have the pencils and stuff. Why?

Oh man, that's lame.

The lamest thing this place has pulled.

You should just find an even better backpack in revenger.

That sounds like a plan.

[There was a ton of other stuff she'd drawn, too. But she's not mentioning her throwing stars or her knives or any of it.

Do they have a mall here?

Can't you just have someone make you a new one?

[It's a genuine question. Just about anything she wants clothes or accessory wise gets purchased or custom made for her.]

Probably. I just really liked that one.

Then that just means it needs to be replaced with something even better.

[Total kid at heart here.]

I'm gonna try to. That backpack was pretty fucking cool.

[Not to mention the stuff she had in it.]

Oh? What did it look like?

Purple and pink checker pattern and a Hello, Kitty decal on the front. I drew it the other day when there was a curse. Guess it was just temporary.

Aren't most of these curses suppose to be temporary?

[At least that's what she's been told so far.]

Yeah, but...doesn't hurt to hope, right?

I suppose not. [Though she does seem unsure about that.]

[Abed's not entirely sure what to do. He's learned that, in situations like this, you usually awkwardly pat the other person on the shoulder, but he can't pat her shoulder over the network, and he doesn't know where she lives.

He searches his brain for some alternative.]

I'm sorry.

This is some bullshit, Abed.

I guess that's why they call it a curse.

Yep. [She's staring at the ceiling of her room, just looking like she wants to punch something.]

Kind of a good thing your picture didn't spring to life. That woulda sucked if it vanished.

[Even if she had no clue what he was talking about.]

Nothing lasts forever. Not even time.

You're oddly calm, you know that?

Some people say I have a mental disorder, but I prefer to think of it as a film critic's perspective on life.

The City never lets you keep anything cool.

Nope. Why would it? That'd make sense and this place doesn't make a single fucking bit.

Pretty much. Maybe you can buy one, though. The City seems to have everything.
