Meet Jim Bean. He is what people will call a computer nerd. He spends most of his time on the
internet and playing games, his favourite Mine Sweeper. Little does he know, he is about to
enter THE TWILIGHT ZONE!

Jim Bean woke up and rolled over. He had a notepad on the floor in which he wrote about what he
remembered from his dreams that night. Later on he would write them up in full. He got dressed
and sat down for breakfast.

"Hi, honey." said his wife, Jessica Bean.
"Hi, sweetie. Hi kiddy." said Jim.
"Hi dad." said his only daughter, Penelope.

After breakfast, Jim went on the computer. First he checked his e-mail, then he started up Mine
Sweeper. After three clicks he hit a mine. He clicked the smiley face.

Where was he? Was he dreaming?

He looked around, he saw grey boxes on the floor. He had flags and a spade in a backpack with
him. Above him was a giant smiley face.

"Choose a square and start digging." said the face.

Seeming Jim always started with the corners, he went to the left and followed the wall till he
got to a joint. 'Am I here?' he thought.

It took only a few seconds to dig far enough to see what was down there. A mine.

"Tough luck sunny." said the face.

"But, what is... where is... why?" Was all Jim could stumble out.

Jessica and Penelope were at a hospital, where they had brought Jim because he had passed out. He
was taken away as he family was sent to the waiting room.

"Mrs. Bean?" said Dr. Proctor.
"Yes."
"Your husbands body just seemed to explode for no apparent reason."
