CSN CSI or CSN...I
episode 2
(Midnight approaches as folk rock crime scene investigators CROSBY, STILLS, and NASH, joined by old friend and very special guest star YOUNG, carefully make their way onto the abandoned scene of an occult ritual that may be linked to two murders)
NASH: One, two, three, four.
STILLS: What?
NASH: I'm counting the pentagrams.
CROSBY: Oh please, not with the pentagrams again!
NASH: But there's something familiar about this place.
YOUNG: I feel like I've been here before.
STILLS: And I feel like I've been here before!
CROSBY: (A little freaked out) What's going on?
YOUNG: We have all been here before!
NASH: What?
YOUNG: We have all been here before.
NASH: I'm sorry, my hearing's going. One more time?
STILLS: (Butting in, a bit irritated) We have all been here before. We have all been here before. We have all been here before!
NASH: Okay okay, Jesus Stephen! How do we know we've all been here before?
YOUNG: (Getting a little spacey and mystical as is his wont) Do you see that yellow moon, on the rise?
NASH: Yeah, what about it?
YOUNG: I just thought it was interesting, and yellow.
(CROSBY shoots YOUNG a nasty look)
YOUNG: What. I'm just trying to help.
CROSBY: Well maybe you could help less, okay.
NASH: What?
STILLS: (Ever the powderkeg) HELP LESS, NASH. HELP LESS. HELP LESS. HEH-EH-ELP-LESS!!!!
CROSBY: (Muttering) Take a chill pill Stephen.
YOUNG: (Growing more mystical and distanced as CSN gets more dysfunctional) Look at that big bird, flying across the sky.
NASH: (Ignoring YOUNG) This might just be Deja Vu. I mean, if I had ever been here before I would probably know just what to do.
(STILLS rolls his eyes)
NASH: (Turning to CROSBY) What, don't you?
(Everyone stops. There is a slight susurration of the Earth. YOUNG squats and puts both his hands flat on the ground. Everyone looks at him)
YOUNG: It makes me wonder. What's going on under the ground, hmm?
(CROSBY is clearly exasperated with YOUNG, but STILLS turns hotly to CROSBY)
STILLS: Do you know? Don't you wonder? What's going on down under you?
YOUNG: (Chanting, as if seized by a vision) We have all been here before. We have all been here before. We have all been here before. We have all been here before. We have all been here before. We have all been here before.
NASH: (Fiddling with hearing aid) What's that? What's he saying?
(STILLS, disgusted, rolls eyes and shakes head)
YOUNG: (Growing more mystical and distanced as CSN gets more dysfunctional) Look at that big bird, flying across the sky.
NASH: (Ignoring YOUNG) This might just be Deja Vu. I mean, if I had ever been here before I would probably know just what to do.

NASH: (Fiddling with hearing aid) What's that? What's he saying?
(STILLS, disgusted, rolls eyes and shakes head)

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.
I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!
One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
