Hello Carol, this is Robert Carlyle for E-Celebrity Profile, we are in a private clinic for the rich & famous in Switzerland. This clinic is so plush, we are not allowed to reveal it's location. Even so, it's here that Super Celebrity "Tonio" Romanov has been recovering from his mysterious accident earlier this week. In a moment, we are going to have a brief Q & A with the Star himself!
Enter Sylvia, her weary expression quickly replaced by a bright, if frosty, smile for the camera.
Sylvia: Mr. Romanov will only be able to answer limited questions at this time, as his continued health is our primary concern.
Robert: Ms. Higgins, the TonioWiki says you have been both Agent & Manager for Tonio since he began his modeling career, & on into Super Stardom. Is this correct?
Sylvia: If you read the wiki, you would know the answer, hmm?
Robert: Uh, yes, of course. Can you tell us about the accident? Is it true Tonio may be *gasp* scarred? Will he ever perform again?
Sylvia: Well Robert, at this time I'd prefer to focus more on optimism than discussing the-
*the Ward room bursts open, enter Tonio, looking magnificent wearing only a hospital gown. The shocked gasps of the reporters drowns out the long-suffering sigh from Sylvia*
Tonio: It was NO accident. Tonio & his friends slew the Pac Monster!!
Robert: Mr. Romanov!
Tonio: Even though it cost Tonio his life, he was victorious! Beauty is all around us! Even past life, Beauty lives on!
*a junior reporter swoons*
Tonio: A few scrapes cannot stop Tonio! He will be more fabulous than ever! With his new friends, Tonio will….Sylvia, do we have numbers on New Friends yet? Tonio wants to speak with them before his massage…
Sylvia: *groan* No. Go to bed.
Robert: Tonio! One question! How did-
Tonio: SILENCE! Tonio is late for massage. Ask his New Friends about the Pac Monster.
*exit Tonio*
Sylvia: So…I guess no comment will do, eh? Or Bob's your Uncle. G'bye.
*exit Sylvia*
*The paparazzi stand around confused as a cameraman tries to revive the junior reporter*
Tonio spends his month recovering from his grievous wounds. As he does so, he ponders the possibility that he may be a Super Hero, & ponders what is to be done about it. He will inform Sylvia that he wants to hang out with his "Super Friends" on a regular basis, a fact that will annoy her to no end.
