The Powder Blue Caddy, January 30th, 2025

It’s a cold, dreary afternoon in Los Angeles. A bit of rain is falling on Hollywood Boulevard as the Powder Blue Tuxedo Boys are drinking Beck’s beers in their usual booth by the jukebox. “Cadillac Song” by Ariana Grande is playing.

Patrick: It’s gone. The powder blue caddy is burnt to a cinder. Not even the Credence tapes are left.

Timothy: What the hell were you doing in Studio City?

Patrick: I was trying to get an original copy of our “Vaudeville in LA” film back. There was a collector there. He’s a big fan of vaudeville.

Timothy: It was William Shatner, wasn’t it?

Patrick: Turns out that Captain Kirk likes big swinging tits and a tight ass.

Timothy: What a surprise.

Patrick: What’s left of our Cadillac is over on Roy Lowenstein Boulevard. We can pick it up there if we want it.

Patrick shows Timothy a photo of their burnt-out Caddy.

Eddie walks over and looks at the photo.

Eddie: If you boys wanted to be cremated in that thing, it’s too late.

Patrick and Timothy look at Eddie.

Patrick: You mean like a Viking funeral?
Eddie: I thought that’s what you wanted. You always hire the girls with blonde pigtails wearing lederhosen.

Timothy: It’s just a personal preference.

Patrick: I like the smell of leather, and the pigtails make for… I think I’ve said too much.

Timothy: We just liked driving around in the powder blue Cadillac. It was part of our image.

Eddie: Maybe Captain Kirk will buy you a new Caddy if you put him in a vaudeville video.

Eddie leaves. Patrick and Timothy look at each other.

Patrick: It’s an idea…
