(Slipstream) Marisella's so obsessed with the hot lady plumber that she almost doesn't hear that her drain is clogged by a baby monster. (1,469 words; Time: 04m)

Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: Marisella's goal moves from unclogging her sink to swapping numbers with the hot plumber to gaining immortality from eating the glup. We suspect that last won't end well.
Con: Marisella is a rather uninteresting character. The plumber is more interesting. So's the glup.
