“Okay, so we all agree this ski trip really sucked,” Kenneth said as he stood in front of the cabin’s fireplace facing his friends, “But we have one more day here. We need to go out there and find the weird monster that swapped our bodies. I know it looked scary, but it’s not like it killed us; it just swapped our bodies. I know I don’t want to go back to college after this winter break as Jenny. And I’m sure she doesn’t want to back as Dave. And neither Wendy and Dave don’t want to return with the wrong bodies either. Maybe if we go out there, we can find it again and swap back to normal.”
Kenneth was usually pretty good at these sorts of speaches, inspiring his friends to do new things -- however, now that he was in Jenny’s body with her high squeaky voice and her very short, unimposing stature, he just didn’t have his usual gravitas. He certainly wasn’t going to inspire his friend to run after a body swapping monster, even if they were all stuck in the wrong bodies.
