Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]
Arriving at an old tomb, bottle in hand, Professor Bernice Summerfield encounters a creature. The creature tells Benny there's no need to fear it, so long as she shares a drink. As they sit there, drinking away, Benny reminisces about some of her previous adventures. They finish the bottle, so Benny knows she needs to go back to her shuttle, and she wishes the creature farewell.
