The Potsie Scheme
Space Race Episode 1 Act 2
Back on the racer’s level, Mick and Jeb dispense with the pleasantries and get down to the nitty gritty. Mick opens a hatch on the side of the port and pulls out a green canvas bag. He slings the bag over his shoulder in the least conspicuous way, yet still managed to attract Jeb’s interest.
Space Race Episode 1
“Mel’s Cabo Cabana” is a neon speck in the emptiness of space. The history sold to the general public tells of a rose colored Mel in the midst of serendipity. He was a simple junkyard worker, when Cabo Cabana was pulled into his junkyard. Once a pride of her fleet, the rigors of space had left her a ghost of her former glory. Mel could see her inner beauty and knew her hull was built to last. He and his two able bodies sons got to work. They built and programmed worker drones, who did the real sweat and tears, and redesigned her interior in googie architecture. The result is a space craft ripped from the celluloid of black and white sci-fi flicks. Each level appears a Hollywood Cafe version of Hades, filled to the brim with the scum of intergalactic society. There are many chances to sin and little in the way of salvation.
