"Tyler: Yeah. Dont look at October! But look at tomorrows date! Its Friday the 13th! The unluckiest date of all! If you walk under a ladder or past a black cat, terrible things will happen! George: Oh, come on Tyler! Ladders and black cats! What else do we avoid on this Friday the 13th? Tyler: Well, if you spill salt, you should always throw a bit over your shoulder! Janet: Dont put new shoes on the table, avoid walking on the cracks in the pavement, that sort of thing. Tyler: Dont make woodland animals out of marzipan. Janet: What? Tyler: Dont dance on linoleum, dont throw hedge clippings at sparrows, dont whistle within six foot of a carpet warehouse, and at all costs whatever else happens, dont play the trombone on a bus. Cassie: I told you to hide!"

"Ruby: Hmm, odd. Today is Friday, maybe its not just any Friday. Misery: That doesnt explain why Im suddenly Mother Natures new best friend. (Ruby looks at the calendar, July 13 is circled.) Ruby: I was right. Today is Friday the 13th. Misety: Wait. I remember my nanna telling me a story about this date. (Misery is remembering the story till the end) Ruby: I get it. Bad luck is normal for you, Misery. So Friday the 13th is actually a good luck day for you. Poe: Plus, the full Moon has been out all day. Perhaps that magnifies the effect. (The Moon blinks) Ruby: Its a chance for you to experience a whole new side of life, Misery. One that isnt fraught with disaster. (Poe screams before dodging a falling furniture) Ruby: The rest of us will just haave to stand on our toes."
