Why this must be read: Because this combination meta-crackfic of Paul drinking and arguing with subconscious manifestations of the characters he's played--while they dispense marital and psychological "wisdom" --will have you laughing from start to finish. And the last character who appears makes for a great ending.

The man held up a glass and motioned toward the bottle. "Mind if I have some?"

The man. Himself. Himself with tousled hair, rumpled clothes under an equally rumpled raincoat, leaning against the wall with a somewhat maniacal grin. Paul looked at the bottle - he hadn't had that much to drink - and then back at the man. "Is there some particular drunken hallucination you're supposed to be, or am I just generally going off my rocker?"

The man put the back of his hand to his head in a mock-tragic gesture and sighed deeply. "Ah, well. I assumed you'd know me. Actor's ego, as you should know. We're all in love with ourselves. It's a hazard of the profession."

Paul stared. That broadly theatrical delivery was unmistakably familiar; he'd rehearsed it enough to know. "Are you supposed to be Geoffrey Tennant?"
