Brad watches himself on the screen, stumble towards the garage door. When his foot gets stuck he flies head-first into the garage door. He takes support towards the door, turns around a and slide to the ground. That's when something is happening next to the car.
As Brad watches the screen, the door to the chauffeur's side opens, and a woman steps out, leaving the door wide open. 
"Are you okay?" It's a woman Brad doesn't recognize. She is not tall, petite and... cute. Brad has a good feeling about her and catches himself smiling, as he watches the screen. 
The woman stops in front of the car. A sudden sound draws Brad's attention back to himself. He watches as he throws himself to his right, and throws up. 
"You got to be kidding me!" He covers his face in embarrassment. Linus chuckle.
"It gets worse!" Brad throws him a look, worse?
He watches himself pick up something from the ground and hears the woman commenting: "Put it down kiddo! " Laughter erupts from Linus. "If you put it back into your mouth, then I will tell your mummy." She continues in a stern tone. "So, that's a good boy. Now, are you going to get inside?" 
"No," Brad hear himself answer. "I sit good hear where I can look at the stars, and.. the moon..and..." Some words are barely understood.
"You like the stars?" The woman steps up to him and leans against the garage door. 
"What a bummer," Brad comments as he can only see the back of her head.
"Don't worry," Linus assure him. "Things will only get worse from here."
