Some time later, the circus's shuttle train is stopped at a new outpost. Several bays are open and a crew is taking supplies out to set up.

Back in Rico's studio, he sits on the bed while the boss paces back and forth. "We've had fun... and you're certainly weird enough that we can draw a crowd..."

She sighs and spins her hand in the air. "But you don't have any showmanship. You're cut from the act. You're on your own, kid."

Rico sits on the bed, pondering. He's never been so relieved and so offended at the same time over losing a job.

Author's Notes:

Sometimes unemployment is okay. Maybe the Standard offers good benefits to job seekers?
