Fake News: Expecting, Chapter 10
Title: Expecting, Chapter 10: The Doctor Is In
Series: The Colbert Report
Rating: PG
Warnings: Mild swearing, mild ickiness
Words: ~3900
Disclaimer: Three.

For the Report characters: They and their universe are property of Stephen Colbert, the other Report writers, and of course Viacom. Not mine. Sue me not, please.

And for the real people, the poem:
Please, make no mistake:
these people aren't fake,
but what's said here is no more than fiction.
It only was writ
because we like their wit
and wisecracks, and pull-squints, and diction.
We don't mean to quibble,
but this can't be libel;
it's never implied to be real.
No disrespect's meant;
if you disapprove, then,
the back button's right up there. Deal.

And the brand shiny new disclaimer number three: Not approved, endorsed, or even necessarily agreed with by NoFactZone.

Notes: Dr. Moreau's granddaughter is named after her. If you ever watched The Magic School Bus, you've seen her in action. (This has no bearing on the story; it's just amusing.)

Clips referenced: House-buying advice; Lent. The short referenced in the Moment of Zen can be found here.
