"As you all know, Spiderman is going to be played by none other than low-key mumbler Tobey Maguire. Hey geniuses, why don't you throw in Michael Caine, like it's Captain America, and you can have the entire cast of The Cider House Rules destroy the Marvel Universe in one fell swoop! I ask you people, what are you trying to do, ruin my life?"

"Mr. Logan, that wasn't in the script. Though the writers really liked the ad-lib, it'd probably be best if you didn't try that again," Lindsey, the publicist, said, her eyes glimmering with anger. "Hugh will be back here to publicize his next movie if it's the last thing I do."

Logan stared at the woman. Come to think of it, her hair really wasn't as pretty as Jeannie's.

"Had to be done. Look, I know the real Peter Parker. Tobey Maguire is no Peter Parker. I'm not gonna try to sell a truckload of shit that says he is."

The woman's jaw clenched. Her nostrils flared as she struggled to contain her fury. Damn, she was ugly when she was angry.

"Fine. But you're going to get into that Superman costume and you're going to follow the script to the letter; and I better not hear another word on the subject."

Lindsey smiled weakly at an SNL writer as he walked over to pick up a cup of coffee. Though they'd all taken the antics of Hugh's security double in stride, she was nervous that they'd never want to see them walk through the door again.

"The Superman bit is going well," she said facetiously. Frankly, she thought it stunk to high heaven. "At least he's sticking to the script this time."

"Actually, I was hoping to see more ad-libbing from him. That Spiderman line was priceless. It'll easily make the year-end clip show," he said. "Hey," he added as an afterthought, "maybe we could use it in our Emmy reel."

"Oh, just shut up."
