Pancake is tied up

Who: Justin Pancake, Lester and Callum Kotchanski
Where: Blue Dwarf 388
When: an hour after Justin fell asleep from the gas
Justin awoke from a horrible sleep. He murmered thinks in his
semi-conscious state. "No mummy, I don't want any more drugs thanks."
he said, then opened his eyes and realised where he was. He flinched
at the pounding in his head, and he struggled to remember what happened.
It was then that he realised he was tied up. The bondages keeping his
arms together behind his back were really tight.
Lester came into focus. "Lester. Lester please, whatever you thought I
did. I didn't do it."
"You trapped us here to be poisoned by the gas."
"It wasn't me!" Justin paused. "Well I did kinda cause us to stop. But
just because I was looking at that graffiti over there."
"What graffiti?"
"Over there it... oh... it's gone. It said 'The corridor of infinite
perversions' and then had an arrow."
Lester squinted in disbelief. "Justin... If you want me to believe
you're perfectly sane then you're not going to correct way about it."
"It's true!" Justin said. "It's what that Esperanto version of me
said. And it was written on a piece of paper I kept in my pocket."
"Someone wrote you a note?"
"Yes, It's in my pocket. Look!"
Lester tentatively reached into Justin's pocket but found nothing.
"He's a lunatic!" Said Callum, who had also just woken up. He steadied
himself against the wall.
"Lester?" Justin asked, sounding like a helpless being. "Can you
loosen these ropes a bit? They're cutting off the circulation to my
fingers."
"Sure I'll-"
"Wait!" Shouted Callum. "We can't trust him!"
"What can he possibly do?" Said Lester.
"Well he's fooled us this far. Secret acts of sabotage. He must be far
cleverer than he seems."
"I'm really not!" Justin whined.
This was when the Kryten series 4000 mechanoid turned up. It walked in
with it's silly walk and Lester gave it explicit instructions to watch
Justin, whilst him and Callum went to repair the P.E.N.I.S.
Kryten stood towering over Justin for 36 boring minutes. Justin
couldn't do anything apart from lay there and struggle with the ropes
around his wrists.
