When their father passed, the funeral was the first time Jeff and Angie had seen each other in years. The siblings had grown distant and didn’t have much to talk about anymore. They did both agree to help their mom throw out some of their father’s junk a few days later.
When Angie arrived, Jeff was already tossing stuff from the basement. It was where their father made all sorts of strange inventions -- most of which never worked. Despite a quick hello, Angie decided to work on the other side of the basement away from Jeff. The first thing she tried to lift was simply too heavy.
“Could you help me with this?” She asked.
Jeff shrugged and came over to help her. But the moment they both touched the device, it began to turn on. The device shot electrical bolts that hit both of them, knocking them to the ground.
Jeff awoke first and realized something was wrong. He and Angie had swapped bodies! He woke her up, explained what had happened, and told her they needed to try using the device again. He held onto the side Angie had tried to lift while she gripped the other side. It began to turn on again and even shoot some bolts out, but they remained in each other’s bodies.
“We need to figure this out!” Angie exclaimed with a look of pure fear, “I do NOT want to be stuck in your body!”
“Same!” Jeff echoed.
