Overruled! - Preview

Judy Ken Sebben (disguised as Birdman's super secret sidekick, Birdgirl) sits behind the desk of her dearly departed father, having only recently been willed controlling interest of the law firm of Sebben and Sebben.  Shuffling a few documents around the desk, Judy stabs the intercom button with her index finger...

Judy: Birdman, get in here!

Precisely twenty-seven seconds later, Harvey opens the door and pokes his head inside.

Harvey: You wanted to see me, Judy...

Harvey, steps inside the door, winks and points at her, giving Judy a 'gun finger' gesture with a both hands.

Harvey: Errrr, I mean, 'Birdgirl'.

Judy: Siddown, Harvey.

Harvey ambles across the room, stopping to stare at the side table next to the chair.  Unlike her father and his spacial orientation difficulties, Judy actually points at a chair in front of her desk.

Judy: Well, I guess I'm your boss now...and you know what that means.

Harvey: I have to walk your standard poodles?

A pack of angry poodles growls at Harvey from across the room.

Judy: No, it means that since I'm your boss -aaaand- your super secret sidekick, you can no longer know my secret identity.

Harvey: Well, I don't see why not?

Jumping up from her chair, Judy assumes a super-heroine pose...fists on her hips, chin up as if looking at some distant object.

Judy: It's a conflict!

Harvey: Ehhh, I don't get it...

Judy sits back down and resumes her businesslike demeanor, straightening a row of pencils on her desk blotter as if nothing happened.

Judy: I went over it with HR.  Apparently I have to erase your memory with my...

Judy dramatically pulls out an aerosol container resembling a can of mace and points it at Harvey's face.

Judy: Birdgirl Mem-o-race!

Harvey stares at her with a confused expression on his face.

Judy: (smirking alluringly) But, before then...

Instead of spraying him with the substance, Judy sets the container down, reaches over and presses a button next to the intercom box.  The office doors lock with an audible 'ka-click'.  Outside the office a lighted sign saying 'meeting in progress' begins to flash.

Secretary: (over the intercom, mono-tonal) I'll hold your calls, Miss Sebben.

Read the full story and see what Harvey is about to forget at the $1 tier level.  :D
