Rick flails about and falls into the puddle with a loud SPLOOSH! As he sinks into the puddle he struggles to climb out with no luck. It doesn't take long for him to fall completely under the puddle's surface.
You suddenly realize he's not fighting anymore. The latex puddle becomes calm again until something finally rises to the surface. As you reach out into the puddle, you pull out of all things... a fox costume.
Holding the costume in front of you, you can't help but wonder if this is all that's left of your good friend. The costume has an unusual plastic zipper on the front and shines a bit in the moonlit night.
You start sweating bullets. Is this really Rick? Poor old Ricky? Did you just turn your friend into an nonliving costume? Is he gone for good?
