"Just stand still and don't try anything" Gemma warned Nicola "I'm going to get dressed"
Nicola sighed as she was effectively frozen in place. It didn't even seem like Gemma had any idea the remote had any powers, which was a good thing, but the instruction not to move had still worked as she had been unwittingly pointing it at Nicola. As Gemma dried off and dressed herself Nicola could only stare hopelessly at the remote which had been set down on a nearby dresser, tantalisingly only a few feet away from her but completely out of reach.
Once Gemma was fully clothed, she approached the naked intruder who remained rooted to the spot.
"Ok, I want to know who you are and what you are doing here?" Gemma asked firmly.
"Can I at least get something to wear first?" It was rare for James to see Nicola embarassed but it was clear that she was now.
"No, just answer my question" Gemma continued.
Nicola sighed "My name is Nicola. I came to get James. My dog"
She gestured down to the poodle staring up at her naked body.
"You called it James?" Gemma asked "it's clearly female"
"It's named after a male friend" Nicola shrugged. Gemma looked baffled but continued anyway.
"So why sneak in illegally? And why do it completely naked? Are you insane? Some kind of pervert who gets a kick out of doing this?"
"I don't have to explain myself to you!" Nicola argued defiantly.
"Maybe the police then?" Gemma suggested. Then inspirarion seemed to hit her.
"Or maybe this will get you talking" she picked up the remote and pointed it at Nicola who instinctively held her hands in the air as if it were a gun.
"Wow, you really are scared of this, huh?"
Nicola began to lower her hands in embarassment.
"No, keep them up!" Gemma ordered. As she was still holding the remote Nicola had no option but to comply.
"Ok, I want you to tell me truthfully what the deal is with this remote" Gemma ordered, still pointing it at Nicola "why are you so bothered by it?"
Nicola sighed once more. Lying was literally impossible now.
"Because it's a magic remote. You can use it to control me"
Gemma laughed "Do you think I'm an idiot? I really should just call the police on you"
"Fine, go ahead" Nicola answered, figuring that would be the lesser of two evils. But Gemma hesitated.
"Ok, so you're seriously telling me you will do anything I say while I'm holding this?" Gemma wanted to clarify.
"That's how it works, yes" Nicola answered, trying to disguise her nervousness at what Gemma might be planning for her.
"Ok, well just so you know I don't believe you for a moment" Gemma still seemed understandably annoyed at her nude visitor "but I'd be interested to see how much more you're willing to humiliate yourself to convince me"
Nicola's eyes widened in horror as Gemma smirked, aimed the remote with her and issued her next command.
