Frank's Pool Hall

You unlock this Door with the Key of Imagination
Beyond it is another Dimension...A Dimension of Sound
A Dimension of Sight...A Dimension of Mind...You're moving
Into a Land of both Shadow and Substance…of Things and Ideas
You've just crossed over into...The Twilight Zone

Pretty soon I guess...yeah...you want some more coffee...?

Sure Frank...hey, did I happen to mention that Johnny Mac and I
are gonna break in later after you close up and rob you blind?

No you didn't...did I mention that I grabbed every OZ you had stuffed in that old white trash can over by the window and buried them in a secret location...? How do ya like me now, smart guy?

Geez Frank...no wonder you manage to keep this pool hall runnin'
so tight...it's like you got eyes in the backa your freakin’ head.

Yeah...somethin' like that...
