All his life Alan had dreamt of this moment: to taunt the old man without any fear of reprisal, to lick not one but two ice creams right in front of him, just slightly out of reach.
He never forgot that 99 that was denied to him back in the summer of 1973.
He swore back then that he would get the old scrooge back.
And bejeezus he was keeping his word.
‘Stop me if you can, Dad! Who’s the smartest now, Dad?’
A pity Alan was too busy licking his 99s to notice the old man pointing the taser at his crotch…
